Story
How this pet arrived: Santana was brought in by Humane Law Enforcement on May 21, 2025. Why this pet is the one for you:Meet Santana - the smooth, soulful pup who's ready to rock your world! A little shy at first, Santana prefers a slow jam when meeting new people and places. Give him gentle vibes and calm energy, and he'll warm up faster than a guitar solo. This rockstar's heart is won with treats, toys, and a good game of fetch - he'll chase them with the enthusiasm of a lead guitarist hitting the perfect riff! Once Santana knows you, he'll trade his shy act for snuggles, pets, and all the affection he can give. Santana has had doggy friends in care, but a slow introduction to any current dog in the home is recommended. Because he's a sensitive ballad at heart, he'd do best in a home with children above the age of 8. With patience, love, and a steady beat, Santana could become your ultimate bandmate, cuddle companion, and best friend for life! Come meet this little rockstar today - he might just steal the spotlight in your heart! At SDHS:Santana has been vaccinated, microchipped and neutered. He is now ready for his new home! Primary Color: Beige Secondary Color: White Weight: 55.8 Age: 6yrs 4mths 0wks

Story
How this pet arrived: Marcello was brought in by our Humane Law Enforcement team on November 4, 2025. Why this pet is the one for you:Meet Marcello! Marcello is a sweet, affectionate goofball who loves his people and enjoys calm, happy moments together. He loves playing with toys, will bring the ball back to you for a game of fetch and will climb into your lap for a cuddle sesh! He's also a bit of a sensitive guy who appreciates gentle handling and clear communication, so he's looking for a quiet, adult-only home (kids 14+) where he can feel safe and understood. He's had positive interactions on walks with other dogs and is already showing how smart he is by rocking the early stages of muzzle training using positive reinforcement. He also knows "sit", "down" and "paw"! Marcello will do best with a dedicated dog owner who enjoys training and helping this handsome boy build confidence in exchange for a rewarding bond! With patience and kindness, Marcello is sure to be your new best buddy. Ask about adopting today! At SDHS:Marcello has been vaccinated, microchipped and neutered. He is now ready for his new home!

Story
This is Benji, a Blue Heeler–Husky mix with a loving heart and an energetic, playful spirit. He has been a cherished part of our family since 2023, and we love him deeply. Benji thrives on activity, playtime, and having space to run and explore. Unfortunately, due to changes in our living situation, we are no longer able to provide the environment he truly needs to be his happiest self. We now live in a smaller area without the land and space Benji deserves. Making this decision has been incredibly difficult, but our love for Benji means putting his needs first. He deserves a home where he can run freely, play often, and continue to share his endless affection with someone who understands and appreciates his energetic nature. Benji’s love and loyalty are priceless, and it means the world to us to find him a forever home where he can thrive. We are hopeful he will find a caring, dog-loving owner who can give him the life he deserves.

THIS IS A COURTESY POSTING FOR ANOTHER RESCUE GROUP. TO MEET THIS DOG, CONTACT fciaadoptions@yahoo.com or call (619) 466-9137. Penny is a lovely 46-pound, 18-month-old Cattle Dog mix. DNA revealed that she is mostly Cattle Dog and Lab along with a variety of other breeds. Spayed and current on all vaccinations, she is good on a leash, affectionate, athletic, friendly, and smart. Penny came to us with a birth defect where her eye was too far up into the socket. After consultation with the Eye Clinic, it was recommended that her eye should be removed, and she is making a good recovery. She will need help with house-training with her new family. Penny is a very loving dog and gets along with people and other dogs, but she does not do well with cats. FCIA dogs cannot be adopted out of state. Please see FCIA web page (https://fcianimals.org/) for a list of adoption sites. Every potential adopter is required to fill out an adoption application, and the dog is placed in the home that would be most suited

These pups are in Oceanside, California too!

Story
Looking for the right, child-free home for an incredible dog 🤍 We are looking to re-home our 5-year-old Aussie we took in 2 months ago, not because of any fault of his own, but due to the dogs fear of our child. He is an absolute gem of a dog and deserves a home that fits his needs. He is incredibly sweet, loving, and gentle with adults. He does great with other dogs and cats, is fully house-trained, mild-tempered, and extremely well-behaved. He listens to commands the first time, is a great listener overall, and has wonderful manners. He loves walks, car rides, and lives for playing fetch. He is very friendly with adult strangers and bonds deeply with the people he trusts. His first five years of life were unstable, considering that he's so sweet but very nervous around children and would thrive best in a calm, consistent, child-free home. This dog just needs what we can't give him right now: a loving, stable environment without kids, where continue to feel safe and secure.
