Mia was adopted 3/3/14
Hi… my name is Mia.
I lived with my family for two months after I was found in the yard of a home in Rancho Sahaurita. Everyone (dogs, cats, and three little kids) was ecstatic to have me around because I was a gentle and affectionate girl who loved to play. Unfortunately, they had to move to a place where pets weren’t allowed, so they had to give me up (but their loss will be your gain!). They said that I know “sit” really well (that’s a snap, especially when you have a treat in your hand!), and they were sure that I’d easily learn lots of other things because I’m smart and eager to please. I’m about 4 years old, weigh 18 pounds, and am a beautiful “foxy” mix of Pomeranian and maybe retriever. I’m vivacious and full of energy, so I’m looking for a family that will indulge me in playtime, but still give me the education I need.

Hi… my name is Dean.
Adopted January 3, 2015.
Here I am up front: “LOTS of energy!” But since I’m probably under 2 years old, there’s a still lot of puppy “going on!” Since I was found roaming the grounds at La Posada, there isn’t a lot of information about me other than that (except that I’m a pretty sociable guy)! I was adopted by a gentleman shortly after I arrived, but after two days he said I was “too active” for him, so I’m here once again with my paws crossed that there’s an equally active family out there that would be happy to channel my energy into obedience and maybe even agility training. I’m an über-handsome, red and white Basenji mix (and not a whole lot of “mix” they think), and as the AKC says, we’re “…athletic dogs, who are alert, energetic, curious and sometimes reserved with strangers.” Well, we’re all individuals, so why not come see if we’re a match?

Hi… my name is Alaka,
Adopted May 8, 2016
Sometimes when dogs go “walkabout” it’s for a reason! The people whose yard I jumped into saw me running in their neighborhood for a month and knew my owners, but apparently they couldn’t be bothered with me so I went looking for love in other places. I’m a young, Staffie boy and although there isn’t much I can tell you about my history, the volunteers say that I am sweetness itself and will bond very easily with my new people. I walk well on a leash and am learning other good stuff, so I know that I’ll be a wonderful addition to a family that wants to have me a BIG part of their lives. I’m probably an “only child” kind of companion — I really love humans, but am not thrilled with other four-legged creatures — so if you want a guy who is going to stick to you like glue, I’m the one for you!
