Story
From Flames to Furry Tails: All Shelter Pups Rescued in LA Fire Drama! Amina is the biggest love there is! Although sometimes unaware of her size, she loves to play with dogs of all ages and sizes and jump up to give humans hugs (we’re working on her jumping).  Amina is completely potty and crate trained. I’ve also noticed she does not resource guard so far which is great considering her age, size, and unknown history. She is also okay with me messing with her face, looking at her teeth, and rubbing her paws. She has not shown an ounce of aggression towards humans or dogs from what I’ve seen.  Amina’s favorite past time when she is not wrestling with other pups is to cuddle up with a human on the couch. Her dream is to smother her human(s) with love and weight, but she is doing well with just being next to us and not on us.  Amina’s forever home will need some patience as she continues to learn boundaries with her jumping and hugs. Her home needs to have a good balance of play (she loves to rough house!) and chill cuddles. She would love to sleep in bed with you, but won’t complain about being crated if she has a fuzzy, soft blanket to curl up with.  Please reach out if you have more questions about this absolute unit of a dog! ##2277327##

Story
Johnny is 4 years old! I adopted him 3 weeks ago from a shelter so that my American bully wouldn’t be alone. My American bully did not get along with him due to my American bully not being neutered and jealousy. We do believe Johnny may do better with smaller dogs, it seems like bigger dogs do scare him especially jumpy dogs. Johnny does need training on sharing toys with other dogs as well as food, but does not growl when humans grab his toy or food as of now. He is a sweet boy overall and likes to cuddle and I would like him to go to a home where they will have patience for him and are outdoor people or have a backyard as Johnny does like to be outside! Johnny loves to play fetch and play tug o war! If anyone will please help me find a good home for this sweet baby!

Story
Keto is looking for a foster home...  email eaplevergreen@eapl.com if you can foster her. Keto is an amazing dog who loves people and other dogs. Not cats though. She does amazing when she goes with me to PT. She lies right by the table and doesn't move. She walks wonderfully on a leash and loves to go for short walks outside, in the store, or wherever an adventure takes her. She ignores everything with a simple command of "leave it." Her downside.....she has extreme separation anxiety that requires a daily dose of Paxil. She would do best with a foster/adopter who is home most of the day or who she can go with on errands or adventures. Identified triggers other anxious dogs or the teapot whistle.  What happens when she has a meltdown- she gets destructive ripping apart blankets, beds, and pillows. Chewing on metal bowls peeing and pooping inside. Whatever happened to this girl before being rescued has traumatized her greatly.  With proper behavior modification training and the right people, she will be the best dog ever.    Why am I looking to move her? Because I travel for work and don't have the time she needs. I will find tools to make it work until the perfect fit comes along. I believe she deserves so much more! I have other dogs that are feeding off her anxiety as well and one of my little dogs suffered a broken leg as a result of my dog feeding off Keto's anxiety thus stepping on the little dog.    Again, Keto is an amazing dog in every other situation. She needs the right person and another dog would be fine as long as they are not anxious.   Is Keto the right companion dog for you to foster or adopt?  Do you have what she needs?  She has the love to give you back 10-fold!  Put in an application at eapl.com or to foster her, email us at eaplevergreen@eapl.com March 4, 2025, 2:49 pm

Leeloo

American Pit Bull Terrier

Female, Young

Size

Details
Good with kids, Good with dogs, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Leeloo was born August 2021. She is an American Bully, although that option was not available. We have had her since she was 12 weeks old. Leeloo's main issue, and the reason we can't keep her, is because she chewed through our fence to play with the neighbor's dogs. She did this at least 5 times. I can't afford to get the fence replaced right now and so I'm rehoming her because it's best for her. I tried to take her to the shelter a few months back and they were going to euthanize her for being shy because she wouldn't come out of the kennel. She is good with other dogs, but she is very protective of her people so she has snapped at my other dogs when they have played with me. She is a 70 pound lap dog with no concept of personal space. Part of the problem I believe, is she is a very active dog and I am wasting her potential, she is restless. She needs someone who is more active. She does backflips and parkours off our tree. She could be a great agility dog or trick dog.

Story
Ginny is a super sweet girl who we have had since July 2024! She came to us as a stray dog who spent the first 1.5(ish) years of her life on the streets and she has been spoiled rotten ever since. Ginny loves every human and dog that she meets but is not cat-friendly. She loves to sit outside to watch the trees and the squirrels, and will gladly cuddle with you any day or night. She is house trained and knows the commands sit, wait, and come, and walks well on leash and off leash. Her ideal home would be either an only-pet home with humans that are home bodies and able to give her constant love and enrichment or a home with another doggy friend she can play with when she wants to.

Story
Jedi is a six year old front leg tripod pitty mix. I am just fostering him right now, but I have known him almost his whole life. He is the sweetest, silliest boy who wants to have a good play sesh and then snuggle up on the couch. He is very well potty trained with never an accident. He is crate trained and loves spending time in his kennel, I am told by neighbors with no crying or anything. He is GREAT with my cats and adores them, but gives them space when they want it. He is great with other dogs too, large and small. Because he is a tripod, he does require more medical care than the average dog. We have just done X rays and blood work, all looking very good! But he has arthritis in his front elbow and takes joint pain medication, but still gets around great. Everyone loves this guy, he has such a big personality!

Story
This is Uma Darling. We call her Moo cause she looks like a cow, she probably could land a side gig working for Chick-fil-a! We raised her from just a pup. She was a great addition to our little backyard farm and was a great shepherd dog around our chickens and ducks. Uma loves sunbathing! She is a bit lazy, mild tempered, tolerates kids well. She only barks when on alert and with suspicious characters but she might just lick em to death if there is a treat in hand. Uma loves chin scratches and belly rubs but will be content just laying at your feet.
