Escondido, CA

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

At just 3 years old and around 40lbs, Alfina has already lived a life full of challenges… and she’s conquered every single one of them with a tail wag and a smile. This brave tripod beauty likely lost her leg after a car accident, a heartbreaking reality for so many dogs in third-world countries who never receive proper care. But Alfina? She never let it dim her light. Today, she gets around effortlessly on her three legs, tail wagging, and giving kisses along the way &#226&#157&#164&#239&#184&#143 Alfina is incredibly friendly, especially with kids and other dogs. She’s the kind of girl who sees a new friend in every face. Outgoing, playful, and full of joy, she brings sunshine with her wherever she goes.

Athena is a little over 4 years old and almost like a fun-sized shepherd mix. She’s had a rough beginning as she was picked up as a stray in Mexico, along with her sister. They came to us extremely scared of everything and have come a long way since being with us. While her sister got adopted shortly after, Athena got left behind still looking for her forever family. She is one of our special girls who needs her forever family to be really patient with her as she learns to get comfortable with you. She is still very shy and we suggest a home with no kids and a female-only household. Athena would benefit best from having an outgoing, friendly dog in the house for her to follow (she used to look to her sister for direction). She loves playing with toys and walks well on a leash. If you are looking for a sweet girl who just needs some love and someone with patience, please fill out an application:https://www.muttsinneed.org/adoption-application.htmlMay 18, 2025, 9:22 pm
