Campion is a three-year-old pig-dog superstar—a big, snorty, wiggly bundle of joy with the heart (and belly!) of a giant plush potato!

Part piglet, part potato, part oversized cuddle monster—Campion is pure magic and impossible not to adore! He’s ready to snuffle, snort, and snuggle his way into a forever home that will love his big, squishy, lovable self every single day!I’m available for a 10 day adoption trial!Learn more about our adoption process.

Hello, I’m Maximus — a 9-year-old pit bull mix with a big heart. I’ve had a bit of a rough year as an Eaton Fire survivor and lost my home, but I’m ready for a fresh start with someone who gets me.I’m an 80-pound gentle giant — calm and sweet. I’m potty trained, never jump, and I’m super respectful when humans are eating. I`m great with all people including kids, and just want to be petted and loved. At first, I might be a little nervous, but give me some time and I’ll melt right into your lap for cuddles.I sleep through the night in my dog bed, and I’m a good boy when left home alone — no chewing or messes. I’m looking for a home where I can be the only dog because I get a bit reactive around other pups. I’m a strong boy and sometimes pull on the leash while walking, so I need a confident adopter who can handle me.I love soaking up under the sun, I’m low maintenance, and all I really want is your love. If that sounds like a buddy you’re looking for, please come meet me ??Learn more about our adoption process.

Not good with dogs, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Monica is a very sweet but anxious girl. She is medicated for her anxiety. She loves people and cuddling but has boundary problems in the amount of attention that she needs. Monica struggles with other dogs. While not outright aggressive she needs to feel dominant and will do her best to dominate other dogs in the household. I adopted Monica in 2022. She was previously owned by an unhoused man for the first six months of her life. I've recently moved in with my girlfriend who has a small dog who Monica consistently seeks to dominate. I have spent literally thousands of dollars on training but cannot afford to spend any more. As a result she spends a fair portion of her time in her room (a second bedroom) alone. I want nothing more than a good life for her and feel that I cannot currently provide it. Its my goal to get her to a home with an experienced owner who can handle a dog of her needs. Thank you.

Story
Brutus is a 4 year old, purebred, English Bulldog. He loves chewing on bones & dog toys, taking a dip in a small, shallow backyard plastic, kiddie pool on hot days eating watermelon. He also loves hanging out with people, female dogs & cats. Brutus enjoys watching TV and of course he loves….eating. He’s a real lover boy! Brutus would do best in a home without young children & preferably a female dog only. He doesn’t care for walks as his feet are tender from an infection he had as a puppy. Brutus is looking for a fun, loving forever home with a fellow couch potato🐾

Story
#A5258180 Bella is an 8-year-old, 58 lb spayed female Boxer with a beautiful fawn-and-white coat and a sweet, soulful face. Surrendered by her owner on October 24, 2025, Bella is described as incredibly sweet but also a little nervous and unsure in the shelter. She’s gentle and tolerant, but her body language in the kennel suggests she’s overwhelmed by the environment and needs time to decompress. Bella walks nicely on leash, appears housebroken, and has a calm, low-energy personality. She’s tolerant of other dogs but should be the only pet in her new home due to a prior history of conflict with a housemate. Bella would thrive in a quiet, adult-only home where she can feel safe, relax, and enjoy the comfort and companionship she deserves. -8 years old, spayed female, 58 lbs -Boxer, fawn with white markings -Owner surrender on 10/24/2025 -Very sweet but nervous and tense in the shelter -Low energy level; calm and easy to leash -Appears housebroken -Tolerant of other dogs but must be the only dog in the home -Adult-only home recommended -Adoptable with a health waiver for further vet follow-up -Sensitive, loving senior ready for a peaceful, understanding home   BELLA’S VIDEO: https://youtube.com/shorts/mlFnCsJvXhg For more information, contact volunteer Lor at  lor@unitedhopeforanimals.org     ------- United Hope for Animals (UHA) is a volunteer group and does not have a facility for animals.  This pet is part of our Shelter Support Program at the Baldwin Park Shelter.

#A5738754 Say hello to Zeus , a 1year 8 month old Boxer mix with a stunning toffee-colored short coat, accented by soft creamy whites and the prettiest brown eyes - warm pools of whisky outlined in natural eyeliner. Though he’s sturdy and muscular, don’t let his strong build fool you - this sweetheart is a total smoosh, made for cozy cuddles and making you feel safe and loved. When he had the whole yard to himself with a volunteer, all he wanted was to sit close and soak up every bit of affection. Despite his size, he’s actually underweight and could benefit from a few extra pounds to feel his strongest and healthiest. Gentle, loving, and incredibly loyal, Zeus is truly an all-around winner. This darling boy is ready to be the perfect companion to someone who’ll adore him as much as he adores you. Come take him home today!     -1 year 9 month old brown and white Boxer mix -66 pound neutered male  -up to date on all shots and preventatives, so ready to go home with you today! -came to the Baldwin Park Animal Care Center on 11/15/25 as an owner surrender - but we have no notes and no idea why! Zeus has clearly not had the best life, so this is hopefully a chance at a fresh start -could use a little leash refresher, as he’s a big strong boy, but he’s already potty trained, with a calm and sweet personality, and eager to please, so could easily learn more! -a bit selective with other pups, so slow, intentional intros to other calm, respectful pups would be best, or allowing Zeus to be king of the household     ZEUS’S VIDEO: https://youtube.com/shorts/J5uvNuoaCYc   For more information, contact volunteer Lisa at lisaa@unitedhopeforanimals.org     ------- United Hope for Animals (UHA) is a volunteer group and does not have a facility for animals.  This pet is part of our Shelter Support Program at the Baldwin Park Shelter.
