Story
Princess Mia is a 5-6 month old pup with a story of strength, resilience, and an incredible capacity to love. Weighing about 33 lbs at her last vet visit, this sweet girl has already overcome more than most dogs ever should. At just 3 months old, Mia was thrown from a moving car and left behind with a broken leg, but today, you would never know it. She has healed beautifully and continues to shine brighter every single day. Mia is everything you could hope for in a young dog. She is energetic, playful, and full of life, while also being incredibly loving and affectionate. She adores her people and will happily shower you with kisses before curling up for cuddles. She’s also a very well-mannered and smart girl. Mia is crate trained and potty trained, and she will even go potty on command when asked. She knows commands like sit, is learning shake, and responds well to leave it. She is gentle when taking treats and truly aims to please. Mia loves playing with her ball and plush toys, enjoys both indoor and outdoor time, and is always ready for her next adventure. She walks well on a leash and is continuing to improve her skills every day. She’s also very intuitive and will let you know when she needs to go outside. She is friendly, social, and loves meeting new people, everyone who meets Mia falls in love with her. Her sweet, loyal nature makes her an incredible companion, and she will thrive in a home that can continue to guide her as she grows. Mia’s journey hasn’t been easy, but she hasn’t let that define her. Instead, she’s become a loving, joyful, and devoted pup who is ready to give her whole heart to a forever family. She is truly special and while she will be deeply missed by those who know her, we know her perfect home is out there waiting.

Story
Skeeter is a 5 year old, 35-40 lb Kelpie/Heeler mix who is guaranteed to steal your heart. She’s friendly, intelligent, and eager to be part of everything you do. True to her breeds, Skeeter is incredibly smart and highly trainable. She already knows a variety of commands including crate, place, stay, and hold, and is continuing to work on recall. She thrives on structure, praise, and positive reinforcement, and loves having a job or purpose in her daily routine. Skeeter would do best in an active home where they can give her opportunities to be mentally and physically engaged. Whether it’s walks, adventures, training sessions, or simply being involved in your day to day activities, she wants to be right there with you. She is great with other dogs and also enjoys spending time with other dogs and can happily switch between playtime and relaxing. Because of her herding instincts, Skeeter has a quirky but manageable habit, she can use her mouth to guide or redirect when she’s trying to communicate. It’s not aggressive, just her being a clever herding breed dog, but she will need a home committed to redirecting and continuing her training in this area. For this reason, Skeeter would do best in a home without small children, and with someone experienced or familiar with herding breeds who can provide consistency and guidance. If you’ve got a ranch, she’d be thrilled but it’s not required. What she truly needs is a home that understands her intelligence, gives her structure, and includes her in daily life. Skeeter is an all around incredible dog who is loyal, fun, smart, and full of personality. With the right person, she’s going to be an amazing companion.

Story
Meet Colleen! Found abandoned in an alley in Los Angeles, this sweet 35-lb mixed breed girl had a rough start but you'd never know it. Colleen is one of those dogs who just makes you smile. She's full of life, full of love, and absolutely full of energy. In the best possible way. Colleen is currently thriving in board and training, and she's been a total star. She's great with other dogs in playgroups, already working on place training, sit, and leash manners, and because she's incredibly treat motivated and eager to please, she picks things up fast. She's a puppy at heart through and through. She'll zoom around the yard, bound toward you with pure joy, and jump with excitement just because she's happy to see you. But give her a quiet moment and she'll melt right into your arms for cuddles. Yes, she contains multitudes. Colleen would thrive with a patient owner who has the time and enthusiasm to continue her training and grow alongside her. If you're looking for a fun, energetic, loving companion who will keep you on your toes and then curl up with you at the end of the day Colleen is your girl.

Story
Juni will need to be picked up in Rancho Cucamonga, CA where she is currently in foster care. Hi, I'm Juni (short for Juniper)! I'm a young, 1-year-old Miniature Aussie with a heart full of love. My world is full of wonder and curiosity. I love exploring new things and I'm a playful pup always ready for a game of fetch or a fun romp in the yard. I'm very affectionate and love to cuddle and snuggle up for a good nap or for a pet on my soft fur. My gentle nature and friendly spirit make me a great companion and I am just the right size to care for (appox 30 lbs). I've got energy to spare and a tail that won't stop wagging. But what I want most is a family to share all my love and energy with. Adopting me means boundless love, and a faithful friend forever. My adoption fee is $400 and I have an appointment to be spayed in January. Email Alphadogpetrescue@yahoo.com for an application to adopt me at I am located near Rancho Cucamonga, CA.

Story
Michele entered The Misfit Ranch after spending nearly a full year abandoned in a boarding facility, where she waited month after month for someone to finally come back for her. Despite everything she’s been through, Michele still greets the world with love in her eyes and hope in her heart. This beautiful 6-year-old red heeler mix weighs about 50 pounds and has a personality that is impossible not to fall for. Michele absolutely adores affection and wants nothing more than to be close to her people. She leans into pets with her whole body, smiles when she’s happy, and has a way of making you feel like you are the most important person in the room. Michele thrives on connection and attention, and once she bonds with you, she is deeply loyal and affectionate. She can coexist well with other dogs, though she does best with proper, slow introductions. She is mostly house trained with only the occasional accident, and she sleeps quietly in her crate at night. After losing almost a year of her life to a kennel run, Michele is finally getting the chance to experience comfort, love, and stability in foster care — and she is flourishing. Now she’s ready to find the family she’s been waiting so patiently for.
