My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.

Looking for the perfect companion? Nicholas might just be the one! This sweet boy has made amazing progress and is ready to find his forever home through It’s The Pits. Here's why Nicholas will steal your heart:

Super Snuggler: Nicholas loves to cuddle! He sleeps in bed with his foster family, head on the pillow, and heart full of love. 

Playful Pup: He’s great with other dogs, respects boundaries, and loves to play! Plus, he's got the cutest habit of tossing his food bowl when he’s ready for dinner. 

Adventure Buddy: Nicholas adores car rides and long walks, making him the perfect partner for exploring! He’s learning leash walking like a pro and his confidence grows every day. 

Silly & Smart: This funny guy loves grabbing the end of the toilet paper roll for a quick race (don’t worry, it’s too cute to be mad about). He learned how to sit in just seconds—imagine all the tricks you could teach him! 

Shy But Sweet: Though a little reserved outside the house, Nicholas warms up quickly and loves meeting new people. At home, he’s a social butterfly, always excited to meet everyone!

He’s truly the best of both worlds: energetic yet calm and loving.

Nicholas is growing into the most wonderful dog—smart, loving, and full of personality.

If interested in adopting a puppy, you must be local to San Diego County, Murrieta or Temecula, and have a private yard or large patio area that is securely fenced with a minimum height of 5 feet, as puppies are not fully vaccinated.

 

Please consider sponsoring Nicholas with either a one-time or monthly tax-deductible donation. Your donation will help It's The Pits with day-to-day care, including food, vaccinations, flea treatment, treats and toys. Click on the Sponsor This Pet link above to make your donation today.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

Potential families are asked to complete or Adoption Application before visiting our dogs. We introduce you and your family including any other dogs/cats in your family to our adoptable dogs. If the meeting is a good match we will schedule a home check to ensure that the home is a good match for the pet that you have selected. You will then be asked to complete our Adoption Agreement and to finalize the adoption there will be a processing fee to adopt a pet from us. All proceeds go directly back to help support our rescue and there are no paid employees so all fees are used for our pets waiting to be adopted.

More about this rescue

We are located in the San Diego area and pull dogs from southern California shelters and we assist families in rehoming their pets so that they don't have to go to a shelter.

I started doing rescue because I couldn't stand to see adoptable dogs being euthanized due to lack of an immediate home. I knew that I could find them good homes.
