Story
Kiara is going to be four years old on July 12th she was a gift to us from a family friend that breeds Australian shepherds and German shepherds but Kiara was born not a full breed so they were giving her away. She’s been our baby ever since she’s sweet and loves on her human siblings so much. She loves cuddles and kisses. She’s active and loves walks she’s an indoor dog so she gets so happy to be outside she needs someone that will match her energy. Someone that will love her for her. Someone that will give her the time of day. Kiara is an indoor dog but lived half a year with our parents outdoors and was perfectly fine. She can transition easily indoor to outdoor she’s very smart. She learns very quickly. We recently moved and unfortunately we can’t keep her in these apartments and we refuse to drop her off at a shelter.

Story
Meet Duma! A spirited one-year-old Australian Shepherd from Oceanside, CA, whose zest for life is as vibrant as her tricolor coat and strikingly mismatched eyes—one a deep chocolate brown, the other an icy blue. Full of boundless energy, this playful girl is always ready for an adventure, whether it's romping with fellow canine companions, exploring new trails, or engaging in a rousing game of chase. If you're looking for a fun-loving, four-legged best friend who will keep you on your toes, Duma just might be your perfect match! Duma thrives on activity and would love a home where she can stretch her legs, preferably with a fenced yard or a family eager to take her on long, exciting walks. She’s a social butterfly with other dogs, making her an excellent playmate for a canine sibling who can match her enthusiasm. Snuggles are another one of her specialties—after a day of high-energy antics, she’s more than happy to curl up beside her favorite human and soak up some love! This intelligent girl has had some obedience training and is working on her “go-to-place” command. Like many clever dogs, she benefits from continued training and structure. Duma is crate-trained and comfortable being left alone for short periods, but her ideal guardian would have time to engage with her, offering both mental and physical stimulation. Duma does have a bit of a diva streak when it comes to her food and treats. She prefers to enjoy her meals without interruptions and can be protective of them. If she feels like someone other than her trusted person is trying to take her food away, she may get snippy. While she has never caused injury, she needs a home without young children who might not yet understand her need for personal space during mealtime. With patience, training, and proper management, she can continue to make progress in this area. Healthy, spayed, microchipped, and up to date on vaccinations, Duma is ready to find a family that will embrace her playful spirit while understanding her needs. Could your home be the one where Duma’s next adventure begins? If you’re ready to welcome this energetic, affectionate girl into your life, reach out to adopt@joyfulpets.com!

Of course! Here’s a message you could use: ⸻ We got our sweet boy as a puppy, and from the start, he’s been full of energy, love, and loyalty. He’s always been very adventurous and absolutely loves being outdoors, whether it’s hiking, exploring, or just running around. He’s protective, affectionate, and has a huge heart.

Story
Kacey is your classic working dog who is eager to please, but also a huge sweetheart. We adopted her from a shelter in West Los Angeles 6 months ago. We absolutely fell in love with her from the jump. Unfortunately also right away we realized that Kacey had issues with reactivity around new people. We have gotten to a MUCH better place. She is an AMAZING dog. Super smart, potty trained, does not destroy furniture and chew on things, etc. She would thrive somewhere with space to run, no kids. She is thoughtful, eager to learn, and an amazing companion. She takes a moment to warm up to people but with time and proper introductions, Kacey becomes tolerant, super affectionate, and will be your best friend and cuddle bug.
