Meet Bosco, at around 2 years old, this brindle beauty sadly knew nothing but the cold outdoors. His previous owners kept him chained outside his whole life. This luckily didn't keep Bosco from still being a sweet gentle giant. Weighing around 55 lbs Bosco is believed to be a bully blend that has a sweet demeanor. He is kid and dog friendly, house trained, and learning his leash skills. Bosco loves to lay at his people's feet and enjoy walks around the neighborhood. Could he be the pup you've been searching for?

Story
&#226&#156&#168 Meet Biscuit &#226&#156&#168 Biscuit’s journey is nothing short of a miracle. She was rescued from the San Bernardino shelter, just hours away from being euthanized simply because she had been there too long. Originally listed as 2 years old, a veterinarian later confirmed she was actually only about 8 months old at the time—her playful puppy energy makes perfect sense! She’s now about 1 year old and ready for her forever home. Biscuit is a sweet, affectionate girl who loves being with people and will happily follow you around as your little shadow. She has plenty of playful energy and is eager to learn. She’s already made big progress on her manners, though she sometimes still jumps up for attention in the most innocent way. With continued training, she’ll only get better. On walks, Biscuit can be reactive toward other dogs, but this comes from insecurity rather than aggression—consistent training and guidance will help her build confidence. The best part? Biscuit is already potty trained, spayed, and microchipped. She’s a loving, loyal, silly girl who just needs someone to believe in her. If you’re looking for a fun, affectionate companion to share your days with, Biscuit is waiting to meet you. If interested in meeting Biscuit please contact foster: Diana- Drios79@hotmail.com (909)210-3517September 3, 2025, 10:37 pm

This is Tony. He is a 6 year old male, neutered who weighs 65 pounds. He is very loving. Wants to be rubbed and cuddle, but also gives you space when you need it. He is able to get along with other dogs, but he hasn’t been around them in a while so this will take a little bit of time. He is not fond of cats, but has been desensitized to the screen door. He is All people. He has never met a stranger! And loves children of all ages. He is gentle with them as well. if you’re looking for a dog that will make you feel loved and who already comes with a great deal of training and knows a great deal of commands fully trained. If you enjoy naps on the couch Tony is your guy. If you have any interest at all please contact me, thank you. Phone number 251-554-6349 Email dent_lacey@yahoo.comNovember 4, 2024, 4:09 pm

Story
Meet Zeus – Your Gentle, Loyal Companion! Zeus is a sweet, calm, and loving boy who’s ready to find his forever home. Estimated to be around 4–5 years old and weighing about 55–60 lbs, Zeus was rescued in 2023 and has since blossomed into the most affectionate companion you could ask for. He’s amazing with kids, incredibly gentle with cats, and has done wonderfully around other dogs—especially when introduced with care. Zeus has a mellow personality and absolutely loves lounging in the sun, napping in the grass, and soaking up cuddles and belly rubs. He’s super food-motivated, which makes training a breeze! Zeus is currently thriving on a mix of dry food and Fresh Pet. He does have hip dysplasia, but it doesn’t slow him down—especially with his daily supplements (Welactin and Dasuquin) to keep him feeling his best. This sweet soul is looking for a loving, patient home where he’ll be cherished. If you're ready to open your heart to a loyal, sunshine-loving cuddle bug, Zeus is your guy.July 9, 2025, 2:49 am

Story
Dusty is a cuddle bug. He just wants to soak up all your attention. Dusty loves to be chased by other dogs at the dog park. He has a low to moderate energy level. He's not interested in fetch, but loves to play with toys. Dusty thoroughly enjoys walks, car rides, puzzles, dog toys, and bully sticks. Dusty does well with kids of all ages. It would be best if he is the only dog. He would also thrive in a household with a larger, more dominant dog who is fixed. Dusty knows how to sit and stay. He is house-trained and crate trained. He has fantastic leash manners. He gets mouthy when understimulated so he loves to nibble on you. It's a sign he's ready for a walk! He has been neutered, microchipped, and is up to date on all vaccines. Medically, he seems to have allergies that cause itching, scratching, skin rashes, and redness in his groin area. We manage this by feeding him lamb and giving him baths every 2 weeks. If you would like to meet this sweet boy please contact his Foster Jaimie 818-523-8948 garcia.jaimieb@gmail.comNovember 29, 2025, 11:55 pm

Story
We are moving out of state for work and unfortunately can not take him with us. Bruno is a boxer/german shepherd mix and is 5 years old. He is very intelligent but the boxer side takes over when he gets excited. He is very protective of family and is initially anxious when meeting new people so positivity will help him adjust. He has a lot of energy but can also laze around all day. Not selling just want him to go to an active and loving family.
