Story
Meet Athena, a brave 1-year old bully girl who was dumped in South Central LA just over a month ago. She has come a long way, from not trusting anyone and pancaking at every touch to loving head pets and showing off her playful side. Athena is fully vaccinated, spayed, and doing well with potty training, with just a few minor hiccups. While she's still recovering from surgery, her interest in other dogs is growing, and soon she'll be ready for new adventures. She's blossoming every day and can't wait to find a loving home to continue her journey! Note: We need a local (LA South Bay area) foster home for Athena so she can attend our weekly adoption events. If you would like to provide a foster home, please contact us at email sctretrievers@gmail.com https://x.com/LADTerritory/status/1842233219787219380?s=10

Story
Meet Sam, a super sweet two year old pitbull mix. He is a smart, affectionate pup that is the perfect combo of play and chill. You can see the soulfulness in his beautiful gold eyes. His favorite activities include playing with his toys, watching the world out the front window, and snuggling with his humans. He can play energetically, so he is recommended in a home with children over 12 with no cats.  Currently weighing at 50 pounds, he's a great medium sized dog. He walks great on leash with no reactivity to other dogs and is fully potty trained. He enjoys meeting new people and gets along well with dogs of all sizes.

Story
Meet Penelope – the bravest cuddlebug you'll ever meet! Penelope is one of the sweetest souls we’ve ever rescued, and she’s finally ready to find her forever home. After enduring unimaginable trauma early in life, Penelope landed in a shelter where she was placed on the euthanasia list due to overcrowding. Thankfully, we were able to step in just in time and begin her journey to healing. During her initial veterinary assessment, we discovered something heartbreaking — Penelope was missing her tongue. We’ll never know exactly what happened, but from that moment on, it became our mission to help her heal, both physically and emotionally. Now, months later, Penelope is thriving in foster care and full of love to give. She adores people — especially kids! She loves following little ones around to see what they’re up to, and being a part of playtime is her favorite. She’s a total cuddlebug who wants nothing more than to snuggle up with her people. When she’s not curled up with you, she enjoys sunbathing in the yard or snoozing peacefully in her crate. Penelope is also a social butterfly with other dogs — both big and small! She lives with two canine foster siblings and absolutely lights up when friends come over for playdates. While she prefers the energy of larger dogs for more active play, she’s gentle and respectful with smaller pups, too. The only thing on her “no thanks” list? Cats. You might be wondering about her care needs — especially with her missing tongue. Thankfully, it’s very manageable! She eats “mini meatballs” twice a day and has made amazing progress, transforming from underweight and frail to strong, healthy, and absolutely beautiful. Penelope has shown us nothing but resilience, love, and joy — now it’s time for her to share all of that with a forever family.

Story
Etta is a 3 year-old Boston Terrier/Staffordshire Bull Terrier Mix. She is a love bug that loves belly rubs and is very affectionate! She is shy at first and takes time to warm up, but once trusted, she is 100% loving, loyal, rambunctious, and cuddly. Etta is very smart, obedient, and polite. She has medium energy and loves to play fetch and playing with other dogs. She has an adorable snore, that sometimes sounds like a pig.

Story
Luna and Thumper were adopted by my son as puppies in 2013 and grew up on a farm in Oakdale California. My son got a job in Portugal in 2023 and relocated there and was not allowed to take his dogs. His mother owns the farm but did not allow them to stay there after he left. He tried to find a home nearby but was unsuccessful before his transfer date. I found a place in Wilmington California, a construction supply yard that agreed to let them live there. My wife and I have 3 very small dogs already and a small house and yard. My wife is afraid of large dogs and thus I could not keep them at my house. Now the construction yard is being developed into a warehouse. I was notified that I need to relocate the dogs again and have not been successful. These are very friendly dogs that like to greet everyone and also got along with my smaller dogs, the only drawback is they really don't like cats so coexisting with cats is not recommended. Please help find a home for Luna and Thumper.
