Alec is our blue eyed Pomeranian mix, rescued from the South LA shelter. Little Alec was turned into the shelter by his owner who no longer wanted him. They had obviously left him outside. It was apparent by his fly bites and the thorns stuck to his foot. It took him time to get comfortable walking again, but he is now a champion walker! He brings so much joy to people and dogs. This boy will be a great companion!

Bailey and Max were found wandering the streets together. When we rescued them from the shelter, it was clear they were friends, but now we know to what extent.

After being in a home for a year, Bonita and her partner Hamlet were turned into the Lancaster shelter. Bonita was pregnant and scared, but was also happy to have Hamlet by her side. We rescued the two of them and quickly found out that Bonita was ready to give birth a few days later. We ended up with 7 puppies! Bonita tried her best to take care of them, but a kennel is a tough place for newborns and their mom. The whole family were then put into a foster home and we got to see what amazing house dogs Bonita and Hamlet were. They are a bonded pair that are in search of a home to cater to their high activity life, but to also snuggle and love them like a small dog. They also love to play ball and understand basic commands. Bonita and Hamlet are a wonderful pair of intelligent and friendly huskies.

Poor Carly's owner passed away and ended up back with us after almost 10 years. She is now almost blind and has heart issues.

This sweet girl deserves to live the rest of her days in a loving quiet home where she will be happy and loved!

Dahlia is a friendly, playful, very energetic dog. She knows basic commands and is eager and quick to learn. Can be tense when afraid but can be worked with. Knows the word "no".

Ella was terrified at the North Central shelter, but the second she was brought out to meet us she rubbed up against us and jumped all around us and was the sweetest thing ever. However, after being adopted for a short time we now know that she does get very protective of her owner and will need some work with meeting new people on the street and people coming into the home. She is a rescue dog who will see you as her entire world, but with some patience and work she will hopefully be able to open herself up to others in your life.

Kei gets along with some dogs and enjoys taking walks. He is a very good and deserving boy looking for a good home.

Khalila is the sweetest girl!! She has such a happy personality and loves to play and run and go on walks. She is definitely a "velcro dog" and wants nothing more than to be attached to her person. Unfortunately because she loves her people so much it caused problems in her previous home. Although her owner's only gave it a mere 5 days for her to adjust in competing with another dog for their owner's attention. She does get along with other dogs and loves every person she meets! With a little bit of training she will most certainly be able to share her love with other animals in the home.

Meet Lou! He is one of our most recent rescues from the South LA shelter. He is 10 years old and was given up by his family because he had heart problems.

She is starting to come around and gets excited to go out on her walks and we are sure that after some time in a loving home she will come out of her shell.

With her older age comes a few issues like cushing disease and liver issues. Both of these are easily maintained with medication that she takes daily. Her vision is fading and with only one eye needs a little assistance. Sofia would love to find her final forever home to love and care for her! Ask about our foster program!

He loves to give you kisses, play with toys, and just be around people. He can be nippy if you go too quickly with petting him or picking him up, but when he knows and loves you he is yours for the taking!
