Not good with kids, Good with dogs, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Winnie is a 1.5 year old spunky lab. She was rescued after being found on the streets when she was 9 months old. Winnie loves playing fetch, finding good sticks, and swimming in the ocean. She knows all of her basic commands including sit, stay, leave it, down, come, and shake. She is potty trained and crate trained. Winnie has reactivity to strangers (barking and growling). Once she realizes there is no threat, she calms down. She has never bitten anyone. However, we live in a high-density area, so she is constantly under stress and this is the main reason we are looking to rehome her. She gets along great with other dogs and is very popular at a couple of nearby doggy daycares.

Story

Meet Lucky, a handsome and energetic male puppy looking for his forever home! Lucky was found abandoned on the road in Europe and was brought to the US to find a loving home. Breed: Mixed Age: About 8 months (exact age unknown) Personality: Extroverted, energetic, athletic Ideal home: Lucky is looking for an owner who can match his energy and provide him with the love and attention that he needs. He would thrive in an active household where he can get plenty of exercise and mental stimulation. Lucky loves to play and run. He would be a great companion for someone who enjoys outdoor activities and adventures. Why we are rehoming: Lucky is a wonderful, adorable puppy who was adopted together with his brother (likely from the same litter).Both are males, thus competing with each other. We believe they would be happier in two separate homes. We are committed to finding a perfect match for him and ensuring he gets a home where he will be loved and well cared for.

Mara

Akita

(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)

Details

Good with kids, Not good with dogs, Not good with cats, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Mara is half Akita half husky. We got her from a rescue in Riverside, CA when she was about 2 years old. We don't know for sure, but we believe her birthday is sometime in March. She's about 4 1/2 years old now. She is a very loving and cuddly dog who loves being around people, great with kids and loves to snuggle close to her people. She's a very calm and mild energy dog and loves to go for walks in the morning and evening and loves to stick her head out the window on car rides. She does have a very strong prey drive and can not be around other animals and is kept on leash at all times while out in public. Despite her prey drive, she's an absolutely wonderful dog and is very soft, fluffy, gentle and loyal. Her new home has to have no other pets. Preferrably, she has some room to run around and play. Becuase of her prey drive, an experienced dog owner is recommended.

Story

* NEEDS TO BE THE ONLY DOG IN HOUSEHOLD * Hi! My name is Sophie, I am a heeler mix, approximately 2 years old and about 40 lbs! I LOVE life and am overflowing with love! I am eager to please, smart and can be very funny- but most of all I want to give hugs and kisses more than anything! I am great with all humans, big or small. While I am working really hard not to jump, but I sometimes let my happiness get the best of me so it may be best not to be in a home with little ones that can topple over. I am crate trained and know a bunch of commands- sit, stay, shake, hit it (a bell), wait, come. I have great recall off-leash and can even recall on just a hand signal. I simply need to be the only dog in a home in order to thrive and be the best dog I can be! That being said, outside the house, I have been referred to as the queen of the dog park! I love meeting other dogs off-leash, big or small, for a fun game of chase! I can’t wait to meet you and go on some fun adventures!

CORDELIA

Pit Bull Terrier

Female, 10 yrs 3 mos

Story

HI - I'M CORDELIA! I'm a happy and compact 9-year-old bluenose pittie-mix girl with a wonderful smile! I weigh about 45 lbs, and am a sweet and independent girl. I don't act like I'm 9 as I love to play fetch and retrieve the ball - I'm very active! I have been waiting for a couple years for the right home! If you adopt me, I'll be your shadow and follow you wherever you go. I would do best in a home with a single person who can be my devoted companion, or an active couple who loves to walk, hike, and go on outings. My favorite thing to do is play ball! I am obsessed with playing fetch so would do best in a home with a yard - if at all possible, though it's not a necessity if you can take me someplace to play! I prefer to be the only dog but that doesn't mean I should be overlooked, because I am such a good girl. I'm not great with cats, however! Much like cats, I love attention and affection, but I love it on my own terms, once I know and trust you. I'm in good health overall but have a few lumps that don't bother me, so am anxious to get into a home soon, where I can be loved and doted on. Can you foster or adopt me?
