Story
ALERT! We have a Stage 5 Clinger on our hands!But in the best way possible, of course - Jimmy was born to cuddle! After spending months at a shelter, this little guy just wants to spend his golden days right next to his person, soaking up all the love. He may need a little help getting up on the couch or bed (his legs aren't what they used to be), but once he's there, he's your loyal cuddle buddy for life.Jimmy takes a minute to warm up to new people, but once he trusts you, he's all in! He prefers a calm, peaceful environment, so he'd do best as the only dog in the house - he loves having all the attention to himself. Jimmy's favorite things? Cuddles, short strolls, soft food, and treats (he's got just a few teeth left, so he's all about that soft life!).He's recently had a dental cleaning and a full exam, including bloodwork, and everything looks great! Jimmy is neutered, vaccinated, and ready to head home. He's on medication for a heart murmur and takes his pill like a champ. His potty training is still a work in progress, and he does best with slow, mellow companions since fast movements can spook him. For this reason, we'd love to see him in a home without kids or other hyper animals.If you're looking for a devoted, snuggly sidekick, Jimmy's ready to be by your side for all the love and naps!

Story
Bowie is pure joy wrapped in fur! This little guy approaches life with endless enthusiasm, and every day is his best day ever. Whether he's zipping around the yard or playing the "bitey face" game with his foster brother Milo, Bowie is all about fun, fun, fun! He's full of energy and has no clue that he's a "special needs" pup - because in his eyes, he's just like any other dog! Bowie has a condition called megaesophagus, which means his food needs a little extra help getting down. But don't worry, he's a total pro at meal times! He simply eats sitting upright in a special chair (it's like his own little throne!) to help his food go down smoothly. Other than his unique dining style, Bowie's routine is pretty much like any other dog's. After his meals, it's right back to zooming around, playing with toys, and enjoying belly rubs! At night, Bowie will charm you with the sweetest little whine to let you know when he needs to go outside - talk about a gentleman! He's also social, loving the company of both humans and other dogs. He'd be thrilled to have a fur sibling and loves it when his people spend time with him.See him in action on instagram at @bowieshouseofmisfits! Ready to add a cannonball of happiness to your home? Bowie's waiting to meet you! Primary Color: White Secondary Color: Black Weight: 52 Age: 0yrs 11mths 3wks

Story
I has the biggest heart and has so much love, I am almost a 1 1/2 years old, and have an immense amount of energy. I have a little bit separation anxiety so I will always want to be around you and will always miss you. I need a home that will be patient with me and very active because I love to play. I have a bit of leash aggression, but nothing some good training can’t fix.

We adopted Kirby from the Huntington Beach Animal Shelter in November of 2023. He was picked up as a stray. Approximately 7 years old at the time. He is a sweet dog but is scared of loud noises. Pretty much a lap dog and a house dog. He is loyal and best with one or two adults in a quiet home.

Story
Ziggy is 3 years old, house-trained, and incredibly friendly. He has a gentle, non-aggressive temperament and gets along well with everyone he meets. Ziggy is part Husky, Boxer, and American Staffordshire Terrier, so he has a playful, energetic side and will occasionally “howl” in that Husky way, which is both adorable and funny. My hope is to find him a family who can give him the life he deserves—a home where he’ll have space to play, people to love, and the attention he craves. This is one of the hardest decisions I’ve ever had to make, but I know it’s the right thing for him.

Story
Say hello to this handsome fellow Scoob! This guy just can't catch a break! He's been waiting for a couple years now to find his own family. Scoob came from the streets, so we don't have much info on his background. He's a big boy and being black he gets overlooked. Scoob has really worked hard at being the best boy and facing his fears in public. He used to be extremely vocal around vehicles, motorcycles, bikes & skateboarders but he has learned there's nothing to get worked up about! He enjoys going out & meeting people. He is social with other dogs after he has had a chance to relax a bit. Scoob really wants to bond with someone. He is eager to learn but still hesitant to push his limits until he is comfortable with you. Scoob is looking for a family that likes adventures & hikes. Because he is so big & still learning things, we do not suggest small children or cats. He just needs to bond so he can be the dog we know he wants to be! He just needs someone to give him a chance. He wants his own person. Scoob is about 4 years old, neutered, vaccinated, dewormed, and microchipped. If you are interested in meeting or adopting Scoob, please visit our website www.lolr.org and fill out an adoption application. He's been patiently waiting for his forever family.   ##1453083##
