Chico

Hi… my name is Chico,

Adopted 12-16-18

I’m a very shy guy and when you know my story, I think you’ll understand why. After my person was forced to leave, the three other dogs I’d lived with all moved away and I was alone, living under a trailer. Life was scary and strange. Then kind women came into my life, feeding me, and eventually trapping me to come here. I wish I’d calmly walked with them, but I haven’t learned how to do that yet. Fortunately, even when terrified, I’ve never been aggressive, and so people have been sweetly willing to help me—petting me as I sleep, encouraging me to eat, using “shy dog protocol” to help me learn all’s well here. If you’re a patient, loving person, perhaps you could make me feel safe. And maybe, someday, even happy!

Mason (CGC)

Hi… my name is Mason (aka Marty),

Adopted 3-29-20

Has earned his AKC Canine Good Citizen Certificate.

Back when I was a really young pup, my person said she couldn’t socialize me because it was too hot for walks. Granted, some Arizona days are best spent somewhere cool, but we all need socialization, right? So, being here has helped me a lot. I’ve attended class with people and other dogs, and have impressed friends with my good behavior there. Oh, I’m still young, strong, and learning, but already walk nicely on a leash, obey basic commands, have been gentle taking treats, and can be very active at times, calm at others. (In my former home, I was also housetrained and used a doggie door.) Training, patience and love equal a winning combination so far, and if you let me be your loyal companion, we could share lots of happy trails together!

Bree

Adopted 11-15-18

BREE is a beautiful, energetic, and affectionate, 5-year-old, 60-pound hound mix that was adopted as a puppy, but he needs a new home as owner’s new job will not allow time for his care. Bree is neutered and shots are up to date; he has recently been diagnosed with Valley Fever, but with ongoing treatment there is no physical evidence of it (medical records available). He loves people, is obedience trained, and usually has excellent manners (knows sit, stay, shake, come, lay down). He is housebroken and asks to go out; he would be best as an only dog (no cats, please), walks well on leash, and loves to run. He is good with children of all ages.

There is no adoption fee for this special guy. If you would welcome Bree into a loving home as part of your family, please call Nate between 1 and 8 PM at 619-381-2790.

Chester

Hi… my name is Chester,

Adopted 7-5-18

Someday I’ll grow up and be one of the big dogs, but as a young pup I met a dog who didn’t want me around. I ended up getting stitches at the dog hospital, along with the other dog who protected me. She’ll be okay, too, and she sure showed me what loyalty means. When I grow up, I want to be like that—loyal, dependable, and loveable too. People here say I’m loveable already, along with being curious, calm, and eager to learn. A Rottweiler mix male, I’m getting bigger every day, but still a puppy, occasionally cautious with strangers, and in need of training, lots of attention, and extra helpings of love. If you have that to give, will you please make me yours? I’ll try to always make you glad you did.

Luna

Hi… my name is Luna (aka Lariat),

Adopted 8-14-19

“Is she always this good?” People asked that about me when foster mom and I went walking in the park. In reply, she sang my praises: “Easy to care for…walks well on a leash…loves going on walks and riding in the car…barks rarely and only when necessary.” I also enjoy watching what’s happening in the kitchen, playing with toys (especially chasing my red ball), and sitting with my person in the recliner to watch TV. (I’m a small-medium size at about 35 pounds.) I’ve had ear surgery, so need someone who understands the fear/touching issues connected with that—probably a person who’s had dogs; someone I could learn to trust. I’ll love that person so much. So if you’re seeking a companion who’s quiet, adorable, and loving (housetrained, too), I’m the one for you!

Bear

Hi… my name is Bear,

Adopted 6-20-18

You could say my lucky number came up when I was found in a casino parking lot by someone who kindly gave me a ride to TALGV. Here I’m learning there are lots of friendly people around when you’re in the right place. I’m a tall fellow, about 60 pounds, with a beautiful, rich black coat. I can be shy at first—maybe uncertain of how I’ll be treated—but if you’re calm and gentle, I’m very glad for the company. You can see that in my soulful eyes. Even if you just walk by my run, you’ll see my interest, my hope that you’re a new friend. How about a visit real soon? We can meet and greet each other, and you can show me how fun and happy life can be together!

Mercedes

Hi… my name is Mercedes,

Adopted 8-2-19

Foster Dad calls me The Perfect Dog… with one exception: I chase the cats. Other than that, I’m your girl for all occasions! Housetrained, good in the house when people are gone, quiet and calm, I’m affectionate, always interested in you, and sometimes comical (I go to bed when told to, but once Foster Folks are quiet, I’ll try to sneak back to where they are… like they don’t notice the blonde dog at their feet). My past is unknown—I was lost, and although I’m leash trained, if other dogs bark at me, I often speed up, so maybe there was trouble once. But today, I’m a happy dog. Good on walks and know commands, I’m treat motivated, and, most especially, very love motivated. Let me into your heart and I’ll love you back forever!
