Story
I just got Thanos recently and he is an amazing dog. Unfortunately, because of misunderstandings with my apartment complex and university, I can't keep him in my apartment anymore. He is potty trained and listens extremely well. He is 2, so still has some puppy energy, but if you are just laying around he loves to lay with you and just chill. I have all the essentials as well, including food, crate, leashes, toys, and some other things.

Story
PLEASE READ THE ANIMAL’S PROFILE AND ALL NOTES BELOW BEFORE APPLYING! Hi! I’m Leo! 🦁🐾 I’m a 2-month-old Pit/GSD mix with a big personality and an even bigger heart. I may be little now, but I’m confident, playful, and ready to take on the world! My foster says I’m like the lion I’m named after — brave, bold, and sometimes convinced I’m much bigger than I actually am. I LOVE to play. I’m active, energetic, and happiest when I’m busy. If there’s another dog around? Even better! I adore following my foster’s pittie around and trying to get him to wrestle with me (even though he’s way bigger than me!). I share my toys nicely, but I definitely think I’m the boss of playtime. So if I have a dog sibling, they’ll need to be patient and puppy-friendly. When I’m not zooming around, I’m all about cuddles and kisses. I’m super loving and friendly, and I’ll happily climb into your lap after I’ve burned off some energy. I also LOVE treats, which makes training more fun for me. I’m crate trained and potty trained with pee pads (as long as they’re in the room with me!). I haven’t practiced outdoor potty breaks much yet, but I’m smart and should catch on quickly. I’m also working on leash training and basic commands — I’m not totally sold on “sit” just yet, but wave a treat and I’ll reconsider! My ideal home would have: 🐶 A dog sibling (big or small!) 👧👦 Kids of any age or active humans to play with 🏡 A fenced backyard to run and burn off energy I would do best with a family that’s active and ready for a fun, growing puppy. I’m not really a “just sit on the couch all day” kind of guy — I need exercise, playtime, and mental stimulation. If I get bored, I might find my own entertainment! I’m confident, a little independent, sometimes a bit protective of my people, and full of personality. Most of all, I’m loving, loyal, and give *excellent* kisses. If you’re ready for a playful, smart, treat-motivated pup who will grow into your adventurous, affectionate best friend — I’m your Leo. 🐾💛 Adoption FEE: $500 which includes his neuter, microchip, and vaccines.

Story
Poppy is a 1–2 year old sweetheart currently in Los Angeles, looking for a foster or forever home in the area. She’s the kind of gentle, happy girl who just lights up a room with her calm energy and wagging tail. We pulled her from a Kern County shelter literally one hour before her scheduled euthanasia, and she’s been proving every day since what a fighter and lover she is. She bounced back beautifully from pneumonia right after rescue and is feeling great now. She’s lined up for double leg surgery soon (fully covered by the rescue and amazing community donations), and in the meantime she’s still getting around on short walks like a champ. Watching her resilience has been incredible—she’s got so much joy to share. Poppy is friendly with everyone: dogs, people, and likely cats too, thanks to her easygoing vibe. She’s low-maintenance, affectionate in a quiet way, and perfectly content just hanging near her people. She’d be a wonderful fit for a kind-hearted family or short-term foster (we provide all supplies!) where she can keep healing surrounded by comfort. Poppy’s already overcome so much and greets life with such brightness—helping her become the healthy, happy pup she was always meant to be would be so rewarding. Local LA folks, she’s waiting for you! ##2353529##

Story
Ava is a nearly eight-year-old dog with a calm, gentle temperament and a very affectionate nature. She enjoys the quieter side of life—lounging in a sunny spot, following her person from room to room, and politely waiting for treats, which are one of her favorite things. She is spayed, up to date on vaccinations, and generally easy to have around. Ava would do best as the only dog in the home, where she can have all of the attention to herself. She is treat-motivated, well-mannered, and eager to please, which makes living with her very easy and enjoyable. For someone looking for a mellow, loyal companion rather than a high-energy dog, Ava could be a great fit. She has plenty of love to give and is ready to bring a lot of quiet comfort and affection into the right home. ##2209641##

Story
Meet Roger, our resilient two-year-old pittie mix with a heart full of love and a story of survival. Before he ever reached the shelter, Roger was rescued from a heartbreaking situation—he had been living in a hotel room, confined in a crate with two other dogs. Despite all that, he remained gentle and kind, just waiting for someone to give him a chance. When Roger landed on the euthanasia list at a local Orlando shelter, he was saved just in time. Within hours of being pulled, it was discovered that he was suffering from gastroenteritis, and he had to be rushed to the ER. After treatment and a week of care with one of our amazing medical fosters, Roger made a full recovery. His most recent bloodwork came back completely clear, and he’s now healthy, strong, and ready for his forever home. Roger loves people of all ages, including kids, and is happiest when he’s around his humans. He’s still learning how to meet other dogs—he’s been with dogs before and shows potential—but for now, he would do best either as a solo dog or with slow, careful introductions. This sweet, affectionate boy has been through so much and come out shining. He’s finally ready to experience the comfort and love of a forever home where he can truly relax and be adored for the wonderful dog he is. Roger is ready for his second chance at happiness. ##2559761##

Story
I adopted Toby when he was a puppy approximately 7-8 weeks old. I am saddened to have to rehome our boy. Unfortunately we live in a retirement community without fenced backyards and no space for him to run and play. I have a back and neck injury which is making it difficult to take care of him. We expected him to maybe be 25-30 lbs however he is over 60 lbs and too big and active for us. He is a very good boy and very affectionate. We had him trained for basic obedience at a two week live in training. He walks nicely, sits, lays down and is good around other dogs. He is friendly, playful and loyal. He is healthy and has all his vaccinations and is given monthly preventative meds for heartworm, flea and tick. We also have a full DNA profile and he is expected to be very healthy. We is not neutered yet. I will only give him up to a good family that will be able to take good care of him and enable him to get the exercise he deserves every day.
