Story
Paul (fka Apollo) spent nearly TWO YEARS at the West Valley animal shelter in Los Angeles. And no one can understand why! Paul is a lovable goofball who is in the prime of his life at 7 years old. He is house trained, crate trained, good with calm/neutral dogs, loves to play, LIVES to play ball, and is just an all around great guy. We think Paul would do best in a home where he is the only dog or has a gentle companion around his size. He does seem to prefer female dogs but he has been fine with some male dogs as well. Paul is a really great dog and he shouldn't have to wait any longer for his forever to being. Could you be Paul's person??

I am in need of rehoming my dog because I have some medical issues going on and I cannot tend to her as I should. She is an amazing, loving, beautiful dog, who deserves a home that she will be cared for properly and is also given time and love.

Story
Remi has a loving affection and respect for people, cars, anything that moves, really! Remi's favorite pastimes are walking around the neighborhood and showing off his sticks to people that walk by and playing tug of war. He looks like a cute little croissant when he sleeps on his back with all fours in the air. Overall he's a sweet boy who loves a good daily snuggle. He is fully vaccinated, no allergies, and all around a healthy, active dog. Remi is the sweetest pup, with a goofy personality that will turn any bad day into a good one. He knows basic commands and is currently working on discipline and on having more structure in the home. He is house trained and potty trained. He has been an amazing part of our family and we want him to go to a good home.

Betty

American Pit Bull Terrier

Female, Adult
Escondido, CA
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 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
We adopted Betty in 2017, but unfortunately need to put her up for adoption because we are moving to Japan for 3 years. The country does not permit pit bulls. Betty is a very loving and affectionate dog. She loves to cuddle and go on walks. She knows how to play fetch and is wonderful with kids. She is dog aggressive but has bonded with our chiweenie, Max. She unfortunately does not do well at dog parks or public settings where other dogs might be. We have had chickens around her, which she was unphased by. I am not really sure about cats. We have considered putting both dogs up for adoption simply because they are so close and it's not really fair to split them up. She is approximately 10 years old and Max is 9.
