If you find it necessary to rehome your pet, or if you are a rescue and would like a photo or two posted here, please send an email with a description of your pet and a photo to sanya65@gmail.com. Keep descriptions to 100 words or less. If they are over 100 words, I will edit them. Please put in your email subject line "Pet Needing a Home." These pets must be spayed or neutered before being placed on this page. Ads are automatically deleted after 30 days.

Prospective adopters - please expect to pay a nominal fee for these pets - it is just not a good idea, for a number of reasons, to offer pets for free.

Caretakers of these pets - please do not offer "free to good home." Please ask an adoption fee ($75 - $125 is average). For reasons why you shouldn't offer your pet "free to a good home" click here.

Rusty

Rusty_Closeup  

Rusty is a healthy male Brittany/Aussie mix, age 8, 42lbs, neutered, microchipped, vaccinated, and housebroken.   A loyal dog, loves people and car trips, and obeys commands.  He's energetic and needs exercise plus spending quality time with his owner daily. He does not get along with some dogs, so he's best as the only pet.  He has Brittany characteristics for hunting, he will therefore chase/hunt small animals, including cats.   Rusty is nervous around our children and needs a home without children.  He needs a new home that fits his characteristics, and someone to give him the hugs and attention he deserves.  Contact Cheryl at 619-265-1874 or cheryl.standlee@gmail.com

Stanley

Stanley_Pic_2 Meet Stanley - He is a 5-yr old border collie/lab mix, weighs 53 lbs, is neutered and up-to-date on shots.  His original owner that did not tend to him medically and he now has a immobile jaw, amazingly he has adapted well to his disability.  He's extremely sweet but very shy and is currently in the West San Fernando Valley; the heat in this area is difficult for him.  He LOVES being around other doggies so he definitely needs a companion (or two). Please contact Laurette at molleejess@aol.com to give this sweet soul a forever home!

Oso

Oso Oso is an Australian Cattle Dog mix, male, 3 years old, 55lbs. Shy but so very loving and very sweet, loves to run and prefers a big yard to romp around and play in since he has plenty of energy, and spending quality time with his owner. He requires someone with an energetic lifestyle and personality. He is skittish around other dogs and cats so would do best being the only pet, or in a home with his brother, Wolfy (below). Oso enjoys submerging in water, and even though we have never seen him swim in an actual pool or lake he would probably have a blast. He doesn't appreciate the desert heat and would like to move to a cooler climate. He is loved by his owner, but is being neglected because his owner has no time for him, and at times leaves him outside in this horrible heat! He needs a new environment that fits his needs, and someone to love him like he deserves. Oso is neutered, up to date on all vaccines. Contact Allison at 760-567-7164 or alimccoy82@verizon.net

Wolfy

Wolfy Wolfy is an Australian Cattle Dog mix,  3 years old, 49lbs. Extremely affectionate, would do best in a large yard to run in since he is very energetic, cheerful and very loyal and loving. It takes a lot for him to get tired, he should have an owner with the same personality type. Wolfy is not social with cats or other dogs except his brother, Oso (above). Loves to chase butterflies and go on car rides.  He wants to please and needs someone who will love him back.  His owner does not have time to walk him or play with him and many times he is left outside in the desert heat and it's just not fair to him. He loves to stand there and gently be hosed down. He is desperate for love and affection, and would prefer to get out of the desert, and into a cooler climate. Wolfy is a good watch dog and will bark when he hears someone approaching the home. He is neutered, has all his vaccines, and plenty of love to give if someone will give him a chance. Contact Allison at 760-567-7164 or alimccoy82@verizon.net

Suzy

102_1279 Suzy is a 15 year old toy poodle.  She has spent most of her life as my mother-in-law's lap dog. When my mother-in-law died, Suzy spent the last five years waiting at the window for her to come home. When my father-in-law died, my husband and I took Suzy into our home, but we already have two dogs, two cats and a 9 month old baby, we do not have the time or the room for a third dog that is used to having all the attention.  Suzy needs to be in a home where she is the only dog with maybe an older couple, no kids. She is spayed, and other then being deaf, she is in good health. I can be reached by
cell phone (562) 833-5382 or email address JenDameron@yahoo.com

He's had his shots and is neutered. He's Min Pin curious, crate trained, feisty, uses a doggie door & likes to cuddle once he knows you.

Bentley

Bentley Bentley is 5 yrs old, he was given up by his owner that could no longer afford to take care of him.  He is some type of boxer/pitbull/bulldog mix we think.  He is neutered, very well behaved, very mellow, good on a leash, house trained, good with kids and other dogs.  We took him in, in hopes of finding a good home for him so he wouldn’t go to the pound.  If you are interested please contact me at loriwitt@webermetals.com.

Riley

IMG_3488 This is Riley. He is a 15 ib. 3 yr old Miniature poodle. He may be pure or mixed, we're not sure. Riley is great with people, dogs, cats and small animals. He seems to be fine with children as well, but I'd like him to go to a home with children that have animal experience. Riley is great on the leash, in the car and just a gentleman every where he goes! He is quiet and only barks when he gets into his playful mode, where he prances around and rolls all over the carpet. He is pretty much house broken and fine to be left alone for a few hours at a time. He needs a happy ending, since is beginning wasn't so sunny. Riley is, neutered, current on his shots, dewormed and microchipped. He would be fine as a house or apt dog. Email for an application. There will be a home check and adoption fee.

Dot

Dot Dot is 1 year old, she's very sweet and loves people big and small, also loves to play with other dogs.  She is spayed and is current on all shots, including Rabies.  She has some training but could use more.  My husband brought her home from the river when she was tiny, hoping our daughter could take her, when that didn't work out we kept her but my husband really doesn't want to have a dog himself so we are looking for a fun, good home for Dot.
