DOGS AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION

 

ZOE

 

Doberman

Female, 7 years old, 65 pounds

Zoe was rescued from a shelter upstate. She came into the shelter covered in ticks and with significant perineal swelling, which turned out to be a bilateral perineal hernia. She underwent surgery to repair the hernias and, while we were happy to report that the surgery was initially a success, her hernia did relapse. At this time, Zoe has not undergone another surgery to fix it, as it would require the implantation of mesh, which comes with potential complications. Since her condition is not severe, we are waiting it out.

You can tell that this girl has been through a lot. Despite everything, Zoe has the sweetest disposition. She loves people and loves pets, as in getting pets! She is also dog friendly! She wants to play with every dog she sees.

 

While Zoe is playful, she is not rambunctious. She has a very calm disposition aka a couch potato. Zoe just wants to hang out on with you on the couch with her head near or on you. In addition to her even-keeled temperament, Zoe is extremely smart. Zoe will make the perfect companion for almost any home, as long as it doesn't have cats - she is not a fan. 

 

BIRDIE

 

English Bulldog

Female, 8 years old, 55 pounds

 

Birdie's owner brought her to the vet to be euthanized because, well, he just did not want her anymore. He did not say that but he did not have to. Fortunately, one of our founders was in the right place at the right time and sprung into action. 

Birdie is the epitome of sweetness wrapped in an English Bulldog's adorable package. Birdie's heart melts for belly rubs, and she thrives on affection. While she may have a relatively low energy level, Birdie still enjoys playtime, especially when it involves chasing after her beloved balls and toys. Birdie is a social butterfly and gets along famously with dogs of all shapes and sizes, making her the perfect companion for both humans and furry friends alike. Birdie's ideal day consists of leisurely strolls, plenty of cuddles, and some gentle playtime to round it all off. If you're searching for a loyal companion who will happily join you in both relaxation and adventure, look no further than Birdie – she's ready to fill your life with love and laughter.

This girl has been tossed around her entire life. She deserves to have a loving, stable, and forever home.

 

LILY

 

American Pitbull - American Bully Mix 

Female, 5 years old, 55 pounds

Lily had belonged to a homeless woman. Lily was in labor for some time but was not producing the litter. The homeless woman realized that something was wrong and took her to a low cost vet clinic. The vet clinic did not have any medical staff on duty at the time so  they called animal control. By the time animal control arrived, Lily had birthed three puppies, two of them deceased. One other puppy was birthed in transport to an urgent care facility but did not make it. Only one of the puppies survived - Marvel. Lily and Marvel were surrendered to Long Beach Animal Services. They were initially picked up by another rescue, but the rescue did not have the means and resources to care for Lily and Marvel so we stepped in to help.

Lily is a calm, affectionate five-year old dog with a sweet and easygoing personality. She loves people and makes fast friends with everyone she meets. Her favorite way to show affection is through kisses, and lots of them.

At five years old, Lily is at the perfect age. She is past the chaos of puppyhood, but still playful, curious, and full of life. She knows how to relax, but she’s always up for some fun. Lily enjoys the company of other dogs and loves to run, play, and roughhouse. But she is just as happy to curl up next to you and nap the day away. She’s incredibly laid-back and would be a great fit for a home looking for a mellow but social companion.

Lily is deaf, but it doesn’t hold her back. She’s adapted beautifully, relying on her other senses to navigate the world with confidence. She recently completed Petco’s basic training class, where she excelled using hand signals in place of verbal cues. She’s a quick learner with a resilient, joyful spirit.

If you’re looking for a loyal companion with a gentle nature and a big heart, Lily may be the perfect fit.

 

ROMY

 

Poodle Mix

Female, 1 year old, 18 pounds

 

Romy is a mix of Poodle, Cocker Spaniel, and Miniature Schnauzer. She was found running through traffic in East LA. She had no collars or tags, and her coat was overgrown, matted, and infested with fleas and ticks. Despite her rough start, Romy has proven to be incredibly sweet and resilient.

Romy gets along well with other dogs, including large dogs, and loves everyone she meets. She is very people-oriented, affectionate, and quick to bond. Romy will be your best friend instantly, and won’t want to leave your side.

She is active and playful but not overly hyper, and she settles down nicely indoors after play. She love toys, especially balls.

Romy is house trained for the most part, but still occasionally has accidents indoors. She is making progress but just needs continued consistency and patience as she adjusts to a new environment.

Romy is now healthy, happy, and ready for the next chapter in a home where she can continue to thrive.
