Story
Coax and Jameson are six-year-old Aussie/Husky mix brothers, 65 lbs each, neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped. They were raised from an accidental litter and need a new home after their family moved and downsized following the arrival of a newborn. Outdoors They're high-energy, smart, and eager to please; indoors They're mellow, affectionate, and independent. Coax is the more expressive sibling, while Jameson is gentle and quiet. They alert to strangers near the home but are friendly on walks. They do well with similar-sized dogs and are good with smaller animals when supervised. Both have no history of aggression toward people or children. Jameson previously had a damaged tooth removed but has no current issues. Their last vet visit was 08/01/2025. They're healthy, playful companions looking for an active home. It is with a heavy heart that I need to rehome them. They are my my family- but the change in lifestyle is unfair to them/us all.

Story
Meet Rocket! This speed hound transferred to us from Orange County Animal Care! A past adopter of ours was enjoying an outing with her pup at an Orange County dog park when they found that Rocket had been abandoned there. Orange County Animal Control came out and confirmed he was abandoned before sending him to their local shelter. After his stray hold was up, with no one coming to claim him, we transferred Rocket directly into a foster home! Rocket is such a speedy boy who loves to wrestle and race around with the most active pups in his foster home. His foster home is filled with 5 dogs, one other foster dog (Penny), and 4 cats. Rocket is an intelligent, highly active, playful, and curious velcro dog who would love nothing more than to find his forever home! Regarding COVID-19 and other contagious illnesses: Please reschedule any visits if you are sick.
