Story
Hello, I'm Buttercup, a young, sweet, and friendly Labrador Staffy girl. I'm as gentle as a spring breeze and as brave as I could be during my stay at the scary shelter. I'm smart too! I've figured out all the tricks the shelter staff taught me. Playful and energetic, I love a good game of fetch or tug-of-war and happy to meet the other dogs who were in here with me. I was so happy to play with them that I almost wagged my tail off !!! . But I'm not all about fun and games. I'm cuddly and love nothing more than snuggling up after a long day. I'm loyal to a fault and will always be by your side, through thick and thin. I promise to bring joy, laughter, and a whole lot of love to your life. Please rescue me and let's embark on this beautiful journey of life together. I will love you forever and ever. PLEASE EMAIL ALPHADOGPETRESCUE@yahoo.com to request our application to meet and adopt.

Story
Maleficent: Looking to find a good home for my 10yo Brindle. She's a great dog. Still has a lot of life and energy left in her. I can't give her the time and attention she needs since I'm a single father with a toddler and always on the go. She's great with kids. Takes a few moments to warm up to other animals, she growls to establish boundaries initially..but loves to run and play. She's never been a problem starter. Not food aggressive. She's cat friendly, but needs a few hours or a couple of days to get use to a cat. She likes to chase out of curiosity the first day or so and has lived with multiple cats. She's an indoor dog, mostly and loves to cuddle and be close, plays catch, likes to run, potty trained, protective when necessary, but hasn't bitten or harmed anyone or any other animals. Usually barks and establishes her ground when there seems to be a threat. I just want her to go to a home that's a good fit. She's always been in good health. Never had any issues or need to ta

Rue — 4-year-old bluenose pit mix, 60 lbs. Sweet, cuddly, and extremely loving. Rue is a loyal companion who will thrive in a one-on-one home (someone who works remote, is retired, or is home often). She does not do well when left alone. She doesn’t do well at dog parks, because she plays quite aggressively which leads to fights. She has done well with some other dogs like her, who are very playful. But some dogs don’t vibe with her energy well. Looking for: • Only-dog home • Quiet, calm environment • Someone home often • Daily exercise routine Struggles with: • Other dogs • Loud noises • Anxiety when left alone Loves: • Cuddles • Walks • Being close to her people • Attention and affection

Story
We got him in January from the shelter and had scars all over his face. They claimed he was hit by a car but the scars didn’t seem like a hit from a car. Over time his scars healed and has no more scars. He is a very loving dog who loves to cuddle with me. We got him because he wasn’t reactive to my kids at all. Over time he started getting reactive nipping towards my kids who are 3 and under and will start growling when they get near him at times. I would love to keep him but for the safety of my kids I can’t have him in my home anymore. I would suggest not having kids under 5 around him as he has behaved well with older kids.

Story
Meet Bessy #31013 🐾 The high-energy sweetheart ready to hike her way into your heart! Bessy was found as a stray, and ever since arriving at the shelter, she’s shown us just how full of life and love she really is! This sweet girl is bursting with energy and personality. If you're an active individual or family who loves outdoor adventures, Bessy might just be your new best friend! 🏞️✨ That said, Bessy isn't just a walk in the park—unless you're literally taking her on one! She will need a family committed to helping her continue basic obedience training and manage her reactivity toward other dogs. When around other dogs, Bessy becomes very assertive and can show signs of aggression. She tends to hyper-fixate and loses focus on her handler, so Bessy must be the only pet in the home at this time. 🐶🚫🐶 Because she’s still working on her impulse control, a home with older kids (12+) would be best. But don’t let that fool you—Bessy has so much love to give and would make an amazing hiking or jogging buddy for someone who’s ready to keep up with her! Once she’s on the move, nothing can stop this determined girl! ❤️

Story
Our awesome, loving little Boxer mix boy is around 10 months old and was found as a stray. Cody was on death row at a shelter and one of our previous adopters took him in to foster to save his life. Since coming to our rescue he has gone through a 60-day puppy training program, and his trainer raved about this dog’s personality and behavior, saying he did great with the other dogs in the program and was awesome with his small children who hugged and cuddled with him. He would do great with a family or person who can exercise him and include him in their life — biking, swimming, hiking, family trips, and vacations. Cody needs to be part of the family. First and foremost, he is a great athlete. He runs fast and turns on a dime. He is rambunctious with puppy energy in a positive and fun way. Cody enjoys chewing on dog bones, loves having a toy in his mouth, and can be mouthy in a very playful way. Thanks to his puppy training, he is not only well-mannered but loving, gentle, and kind. He will sometimes nip at the material on your pant legs or trot away with a shoe in his mouth while watching you, just hoping you will play with him — and he drops it immediately when asked, especially with a soft tone. He is inquisitive and enjoys new smells, going on walks, and experiencing new things. Cody is alert and aware of his surroundings and always seems like he wants to understand what his human is doing at every turn. He will be your shadow and love your company, giving you all his loyalty. He is a very special pup and deserves an amazing home. Cody is an incredible puppy who will light up your life if you want a true best friend. Cody is fully vetted with all puppy shots, rabies vaccine, neutered, microchipped and potty trained. Adoption fee is $375. Cody is being fostered in San Jacinto, CA and transport is available. Email us at alphadogpetrescue@yahoo.com to request an application
