Story
HI - I'M ROCKY! I'm a 5-month-old purebred American Staffordshire Terrier who was recently rescued with my wonderful brother and littermate, Riley. Both of us came from a home in Southern California. We were surrendered because of a landlord issue. We love each other, and would love to be adopted together, but since we are puppies we would also do fine apart. We currently weigh 25-30 lbs. Please email for an application.

Story
HI - I'M BUSTER! I'm a gentle 9-year-old American Staffordshire Terrier mix, rescued from a shelter, where I was urgent due to lack of space. I was surrendered to the shelter because my family's landlord did not allow pets. Per the shelter I likely spent most of my life in a backyard, so I've never really known love and affection like so many dogs. I arrived at the shelter tick-infested and neglected. I am hoping for a loving home where I can be showered with attention and affection in my senior years. I tested well with other dogs and am an all-around great older boy. I've been waiting awhile for a home - can you please foster or adopt me? I weigh about 55 pounds.

Story
Available to foster or adopt!Breed: American Stafforshire Terrier / Bulldog X DOB: est 2/2016 Gender: female Altered: yes Coat: short Size: medium Color(s): grey / white / tan Description: ***Needs a Foster Home*** This dog is in need of a foster home as well as a permanent home. If you are interested in fostering please fill out an online application. Hi, I'm Chula, a beautiful mostly American Staffordshire Terrier with some Bulldog, a bit of American Bulldog, and with a sprinkle of Staffordshire Bull Terrier and Neapolitan Mastiff (at least that is what my DNA report says) who is in need of a loving home. I was rescued from Animal Services where I was surrendered due to my owner moving and I couldn't go too. Animal Services had this to say about me. Chula is a petite lowrider looking for her new best friend! her owner was devastated to have to surrender her after moving and said this about her: 'Chula is protective over me. She's in tune with me when I'm sad and she's always there to comfort me. She's always playful and energetic. She's so silly and rolls around when playing.' Chula does have some fears and insecurities, especially meeting new people and having her shoulder and legs touched. In one of her homes, she was attacked by the resident dog that resulted in significant injury to her shoulder. Although her shoulder has healed well, this may be a contributing factor to her sensitivities and behavior with other dogs. It will take time, maybe even weeks, for her to become completely comfortable with a new person, especially men. She needs someone who can be patient and understand that she won't be ready to jump in your lap the first time you meet her. A quiet home with no little kids and few visitors will be the best place for her to feel safe and happy. She isn't the dog that wants to be the center of attention at a party - but she'd love to be your sidekick and give you all her love. She is working on feeling more comfortable around other dogs and has learned to tolerate wearing a muzzle to keep everyone safe if she needs to go to a vet or meet someone new and scary. If you have experience with insecure dogs, a quiet home and are looking for a partner to grow with, learn with, play with, train and love, please fill out an online application to meet her. *Thank you to the STARR Group for sponsoring this wonderful dog at the Burnice Kraemer Sanctuary and giving her the chance for a better life.December 4, 2023, 12:42 pm

Story
HI - I'M KOBI. I am a quiet and shy 4-year-old Boxer-Pit mix in need of a foster or forever home. I came to a crowded shelter with a chihuahua, but my little pal was adopted and I was left behind. I am a sweet and shy boy, who will take a little time to come out of my shell in any new situation. I love the water, love to play, and I always have a smile to give. I would be so happy to go for walks, hikes, and other outings. I would do best in a quiet home with a person or people who can earn my trust and be my forever companion. Can you foster or adopt me? I've been waiting quite awhile for a home. I weigh between 55-60 lbs.

Story
HI - I'M ROMEO! I'm a 4-year-old male boxer/possibly black mouth cur. (My paperwork says shepherd-boxer mix). I'm currently in need of a home! I'm a gorgeous, handsome boy who loves to be with my person or people. I'd be a great companion for someone who loves to hike! I'm a wonderful guard dog and can be protective, so just know that about me. I would do best in a non-congested area where I can simply be with my people and not worry about the neighbors. I also have a prey drive, and I need a strong owner. I can be leash reactive and dog selective, but I'm a lovebug in the home and a very sensitive, loving, loyal dog. I am smart, affectionate, and attached to my person or people to a fault. I will be your friend. I am easy to groom, playful, and love a good belly rub! I will benefit from walks, hikes, and exercise. I'm currently in need of a foster or forever home, and I weigh 74 lbs. Please email for an application.

Story
HI - I'M BRUTUS! I'm a happy 4-year-old Boxer-Hound mix in need of a home. My name (which I think the shelter gave me) does not suit me as I'm truly a lovebug. My previous owners abandoned me in the parking lot of a shelter, and I'm not sure why. I'm a great boy - I love belly rubs and I love being with people. I'd make such an awesome companion. I would do great with someone who works from home or is retired - because I love being around people. I do great with other dogs, too! I'm very athletic, so can scale a 5-foot fence - so if you have a yard, a higher fence would be the best for me. I weigh about 65 pounds and am a big sweetheart. I'm currently in need of a foster or forever home. Please email for an application.
