Story
Meet Meline! DOB: June 2021Weight: 23 lbsDisposition: Happy, Friendly, curiousMeline is a happy dog who is weight-bearing on all four legs with no signs of lameness. She is friendly and welcomes being approached by visitors and receiving attention. Meline gets along with the other dogs in the run. Outside, she likes to explore and sniff but can be unsure in noisy/busy areas and stop. She doesn’t pay attention to the other dogs walking nearby. In the off lead, Meline calmly explores her surroundings and responds to being called and approaches.History: Meline first arrived at Soi Dog Foundation’s hospital in June 2024 after being involved in a car accident in which she suffered bilateral pubic fractures. With care and support from the hospital team and several months of crate rest to restrict her movement, Meline finally started to walk, albeit still limping, without pain. Amazing Qualities: I mean, look at that crazy coat.

Story
Lil Miss Gigi is about as sweet as they come. Her favorite thing in the world is to curl up next to the person she loves. Unlike many chihuahuas she’s not a barker at all. However, she will squeal with delight and do a little dance when her favorite person comes home. Unlike most dogs Gigi doesn’t bond with who feeds her but bonds who sleeps with her so if your someone that doesn’t let your pup sleep with you, she’s not going to be the best fit. She’s a dog that needs as much human contact as she can get. Gigi is housebroken but being so tiny she has a small bladder and needs to be taken outside in the morning when she wakes up and a couple times a day. She’s fine through the night. Gigi does fine with other animals but due to her size we’d prefer no rambunctious big dogs as we don’t want her trampled. She still needs to be spayed which the rescue will cover prior to finalizing her adoption.

Story
Life’s just fetching with Finn! Hi, pals! My name is Philly, but you can call me Finn. I’m a fun-loving cuddle bug with unwavering loyalty. I’m a 3-year-old, 19-pound, Chi mix. I’m neutered and I’m a healthy little dude. I was rescued as a puppy but since my family had a human baby and I’m not comfortable around small children, I am looking for a new home that can truly love me furever! I am looking for an understanding individual or family that will allow me to thrive in a new, safe and loving home that gives me encouragement and allows me to show off my best self- the best boy! I’m an active fella who adores frisbee, swimming at the dog beach, and playing fetch all day, every day! I get along with dogs of all kinds but I can get protective over my toys. I also get along with cats! I do well kids (10+ years old) who are respectful of my boundaries. Even though I love having fun, I’m also a big fan of cuddles and pets. I adore my people and make sure to show you my affection. I’m a very good boy who is crate, bathroom, and leash trained… score! I can be a little fearful of new men and may take a bit of time to warm up before I feel totally comfortable. I can resource guard my food/toys and need to work on my sharing. I can get a bit anxious in new settings but with consistency and routine, my confidence will flourish. I do have an independent streak where I do things on my own, but I love a call out and I will come for belly rubs. If you’re looking for an adorable fella to be your bestie, look no further! I’d do best in an active home with teenagers (if any). If younger, as long as they respect my space and leave my toys alone, we will be chums! I would be fine with dogs too. I’d benefit from more positive reinforcement training and a solid routine. So what do you say? I’m a fun, spunky guy who will keep you on your toes and keep your heart full! My adoption fee is $350 and that includes spaying/neutering, shots, and microchip. If you want to take me home, please fill out the form on the website here: https://theanimalpad.org/adoption-application/   ##1060291##

Story
The dog of your dreams! Hello friends! My name is Venice, like your dream destination. I am 2 years old, a female spayed Chihuahua mix. I am a light little 10 lb girl. I was found roaming the streets by the San Diego pet recovery specialist Babs Fry. I have been at my foster home since then. I am crate trained, leash and bathroom trained. I am a total cutie, shy initially but energetic once I am comfortable. It will be zoomies all around! Decompression time is helpful for me. I adore playing with toys. Keep those pens away will ya, cuz I enjoy chewing them! I have been lighting up my foster home with my love and affection. I get along very well with cats! I don't have a lot of experience yet, but should be good with dogs too. Same goes for kids, but maybe older ones are better because of my skittish nature.  I am really looking forward to a loving home where I will be treated like a princess. I will make you fall in love with my sweetness! Once I get the potty training and leash training down, I will be the perfect dog. A mellow home, with plenty of playtime will be great for me. If you'd like to me your furever, let's meet! My adoption fee is $350 and that includes spaying/neutering, shots, and microchip. If you want to take me home, please fill out the form on the website here: https://theanimalpad.org/adoption-application/ ##2126960##
