Story

Text or email only for direct contact with rescuer located in Palmdale approved for same-day adoption (661)609-2186 memeco635@gmail.com Hello, my name is Rustin. I’m a cute little rat terrier mix puppy that is a high kill shelter survivor As well as a Parvo Survivor! The odds were stacked against me, but I didn’t give up although I didn’t trust people I was able to trust my rescuer and together she and I beat Parvo and after many sleepless nights(for us both!) when I got the all clear we celebrated with pup cups from Starbucks which is my absolute favorite treat now! My rescuer thinks I will eventually fold and love getting dressed up and all of these crazy outfits and sweaters, but I tolerate them because she squeals when I let her dress me. I have made many friends in the rescue, both feline and canine, A house pig and some sheep and goats that come in for daily treats (I’m not too big a fan of the house chicken as he is very protective of my rescuer) but I’m very well socialized with a variety of animals and with a little time and more desensitizing to touch, I will regain my trust in humans, but my rescuer feels I am ready for my own forever home because she believes that one on one time and socialization will help me open my heart once more. I love to be held and I easily fall asleep in your arms I’m not a super hyper or even active puppy I’m very playful and sweet but also very mellow and relaxed when I’m comfortable I just need someone who is patient kind and soft spoken to bring out my full potential and show me it’s OK to be a puppy! if you think that sounds like you and you’re willing to give me that chance, Please contact my rescuer directly with the information listed above my story to schedule a time for us to meet I am approved for same-day adoption so if you fall in love with me, the adoption process is easy you sign the adoption contract, Pay the adoption fee, Take the adoption picture for the adoption Hall of Fame on her website, and I am yours and you are mine to begin our new lives together❤️ I’ve come along way and survived so much and I am ready for this next chapter. I look forward to meeting you!

Story

Meet Frito! He is a 10-month-old, 7lb Chihuahua mix. We rescued him from the shelter where he ended up with pneumonia and became very sick. He's fully recovered now and ready for his furever home! He’s friendly and affectionate, always following his people around the house and eager for snuggles. While he can be a little nervous when meeting new people, he warms up quickly and doesn't have a mean bone in his body. Frito gets along well with other dogs, and shows interest in play when he meets them on walks. He hasn’t encountered children or other animals yet, but his loving nature suggests he’d adapt well! With a medium-high energy level, Frito enjoys running around, playing with squeaky toys, and going for walks, though he’s also happy to relax and unwind when the vibe is right. He loves being close to his humans at all times, so he’d do best in a home where he isn’t left alone for long periods or someone willing to work with him on this. Frito is a loyal, loving companion looking for a family to give him all the love he deserves! Adoption fee ($500) includes wellness exam, fecal test, DHPP (3 rounds), Bordetella, neuter and microchipping! If you see me online I am still available for adoption! If you are interested in adopting me, please fill out an application here: www.hitlivingfoundation.org/adoption-application, and email a video walkthrough of your home and yard to adoptions@hitlivingfoundation.org. Your application will not be counted as valid without your video. You will hear back from us within a few days.

Story

Around 5 year old, 15 lbs chihuahua mix. Adopted from West LA animal shelter - he was there for a few weeks after having been surrendered by a family, so he's never been a stray. He's very well behaved, and is very eager to be trained so long as treats are involved. He is affectionate and likes to show his belly to get chest and belly rubs, and will even let strangers pick him up. A new home would ideally have another dog or a cat for him to be friends with. I've been walking him about an hour throughout the day. He's in good health, though one of his teeth has some bloody gums.

Story

MILLIE is a lovely adult/senior, 8 pounds, girl Rat Terrier whose senior human dad passed away, leaving Millie and her four little companions, Cookie, Shorty, Poopsy, and Missy, without their dad. They all get along really well, are house trained, and also know to use pads to do their business indoors, and at night, and when it's raining or very cold out. They are not barkers, only barking to warn that someone is at or near the front door, and then they settle down again. They are great with cats because their housemates have been six (6) cats! If shown a lot of affection and understanding when welcomed into their new homes, we are sure these lovely kiddos will do well in a loving new home even if they don’t stay together. IMPORTANT NOTE: Recently the number of deaths from hungry coyote attacks has greatly increased. Coyotes can climb 10 foot fences with a small to medium sized dog in their jaws. This happens in broad daylight in the middle of the day, and on trails while hiking with your dog on a leash, it is truly unbelievable, and we have frightening first-hand accounts. We are listing these lovely pups to help their current foster/rescue in finding them wonderful new homes. All four girl pups are spayed, Shorty is neutered, and all of them current on vaccines. To learn more about Millie (Cookie, Shorty, Poopsy, and Missy), please contact us at: theanimalsleftbehind@socal.rr.com (also our PayPal email for donations and sponsorships).

Canyon Country, CA

Details

Not good with dogs, Not good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Poppy is almost 1.5 years old and has become more aggressive with my female dachshund and food aggressive with my cats, although she loves my senior kitty. She was made more aggressive by the neighbor dogs on both sides that attack the fence whenever she is out. She is very well-trained, but since we live in the high desert, she will catch rodents. She leaves them after a bit. She loves toys and will share with my pitbull (male). She has never had a real bone, so I don't know how she is, but you can take her food bowl away and toys. She eats twice a day, home cooked food, but will eat dry and canned, but is not a gulper. She'll leave it if she is full. She's very devoted and loving. She sleeps on a dog bed on the floor, although my daughter lets her sleep with her on her bed. She's very clean. I love her very much, but as she becomes more aggressive to the other animals, I'm afraid she will either hurt them or they will hurt her. If you want a single dog, she is perfect.
