Story
APPLY DIRECTLY ON OUR WEBSITE, https://www.karmicrescue.org WOW! What a good-natured and soft-hearted fella. He is pleasant with dogs, cats, and people. He learned early on to be amiable and he gets along with all the dogs in the foster home, loves to go for walks and will most definitely appreciate your willingness to continue his training. He already walks pretty well on a leash, sleeps in his doghouse, and is learning commands, so we know he is a smart one, too. One more specialness about him is he will share his food, which is a clear indication of his easy going side. Of course the breed is a guess; He is only 18 pounds but looks like a Aussie or even a Great Pyrenees, but he's only 18 pounds. What do you think?

Story
Meet Mosey Fields,  a very special  puppy  who is  just under one year old. Mosey has a neurological condition, most likely Cerebral Hypoplasia, which makes him a special-needs dog. Despite his challenges, Mosey is a joyful and big-hearted pup. We recently put him in a jacuzzi with a swim vest, and he learned a lot about connecting his body with his brain. Initially, Mosey used to squirm on the floor like a reptile, but now  he  walks and romps  around  without a harness. Although he still does well with a harness for stability, he can now walk  by himself  in a large carpeted bedroom area. Mosey has made  great  progress -  he  has learned to track, make eye contact, jump on and off the couch, and loves to cuddle. He has also been playful around other dogs and adores people. This little fighter will benefit from a wheelchair and  will  thrive in a loving home. Consider making him a part of your family, and he will return the love and continue to grow into the best version of himself. If you're interested in adopting Mosey, please fill out an application at www.doggiebonez.com. You can also check out our social media pages on Instagram (@Doggie_Bonez_Inc_) and Facebook (Doggie Bonez) to see more of Mosey's cuteness. Our dog adoption fee, which includes vaccinations, fecal testing, wellness exams, microchipping, spaying, or neutering, is $500. If adoption isn't feasible, please consider fostering one of our pups. We are a volunteer-run non-profit dog rescue and always welcome new short or long-term doggie foster families. Doggie Bonez will provide you with everything you need, including dog food, a bed, toys, medical attention (if required), and more. So, if you're interested, please visit www.doggiebonez.com to see all of our available dogs who need a foster family while waiting for their forever home and complete the foster application.November 2, 2024, 7:31 pm

Story
Xander came to us as an Owner Surrender and had previously been in a pretty chaotic home environment. He was initially very shut down and underweight. We took time to allow him to come out of his shell and find his paws in a new home environment. During his stay with us he has been neutered, microchipped and titer tested for vaccine levels. The Good. Xander is a sweet boy! He bonds closely to his chosen people (women preferred, as he is very, very timid with men and will hide). He loves to play with other dogs in his size range (25-lbs max) and is crate trained. When he need to go outside, he stands by his foster-Mum's patio door to go out to potty. He likes toys, is learning fetch, and loves to chew. He lives for belly rubs! He knows sit and down and responds lovely to his name.Xander is good on car rides. His foster home has children, but they are dog savvy and are used to herding breeds that will nip their heels. The Not So Good. The not so good is no small pets (cats/hamsters/tortoise), as he has an inbuilt prey drive. He needs a routine lifestyle, not a lot of traffic coming in and out of the house or rowdy teenagers. He will alert bark, but redirects. Xander is initially fearful due to some not so good human interactions so he needs time to warm up. Xander is located in Orange County, CA - no out of state adoptions

Story
APPLY DIRECTLY ON OUR WEBSITE, https://www.karmicrescue.org Sorri is a lovely girl who is well behaved, walks well on leash, would love to go running with you if you are into adventure. She's smart and responds really well and quickly to redirection. Sorri is very social with people, loves them and she can also be a bit timid when meeting new people. We know she does great with people and other dogs; we don't think a home with cats is a good idea. Sorri will do best in an active home, and if you like training, supplying appreciation, she will truly excel in your home.
