My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet your magical sidekick!



‘Ello there! My name is Ron. Just like Harry Potter’s loyal, loving bestie, I’m ready to be your sidekick. I’m a 4-year-old, 36-pound Labrador retriever mix. I was rescued from Azkaban… ahem, I mean the heartbreaking conditions of ESLR in Ensenada. It took more than a little magic to get me out and it’s going to take a bit more spellwork until I’m a fully healthy fella. I’m so excited to turn the page and find my furever family!



I’m searching for a loving witch, wizard, or muggle who will foster to adopt me. I have Cerebellar Hypoplasia, Meningoencephalitis (currently under going chemo treatment to try and improve my condition), and a possible seizure disorder. Due to the CH, my hind legs are weak which impacts things such as commands requiring "sit" and jumping onto couches. I’m taking Phenobarbital (~$15.00 a month) and Prednisone (~$7.00 per month). I’m partially blind and do not get vaccines at this time, including oral flea/tick preventatives. Trust me, I know this sounds like a lot, but I pawmise that I’m an easy-going guy who just wants to be loved! I’ve gone through a lot in my little life and I’m so hopeful for a fresh start at Hogwarts… I mean, a home with you!



When I’m not brushing up on my Quidditch skills or studying Herbology, you can find me chewing on squeaky toys or bones. I LOVE mealtime and do the cutest hop around the house. I also enjoy exploring around in circles and getting a lay of the land. I get along well with other dogs and currently have foster siblings. I have had a couple of incidents where I’ve nipped out of sheer excitement or for attention(non-aggressive, I swear!) This only happened when I was first in my foster home. Since then, my foster fam has been able to wipe my eyes, paws, and hand-feed me treats without any issues.



I’m a well-behaved boy who benefits from a steady routine. I’m very good with my crate, bathroom, and leash training. I need frequent trips outside and may take a little time to acclimate to my new environment but practice makes pawfect!



What I need is someone who will be my rock… my Sorcerer’s Stone, some might say. I would do best in a home that can provide me with routine and stability. I’m not necessarily the most affectionate or high-energy pooch, but I’m a great companion who is easy to be around. I have been through a lot and I’m a total trooper. I hope that I’ll charm you and that you can work your magic on me as well!



I am a TAP MEDICAL DOG" available for Foster-to-Adopt. My adoption fee is $200 and that includes spaying/neutering and microchip. If you want to take me home, please fill out the form on the website here: https://form.jotform.com/201793643882060

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

We prioritize local San Diego applicants. We do not provide transport of dogs to other states, and don't allow the dogs to fly in the cargo of the plane.
Our adoption process from start to finish, involves 3 standard forms, and 2 situational.
All potential applicants must be capable of providing their adopted pet with routine and emergency veterinary care (yearly health checks, keeping vaccinations current, heartworm/flea preventatives, and immediate care in the event the animal is sick or injured). They are required to license their pet, and keep an identification tag on their pet at all times.
All applicants must agree to a home check, and provide us with a veterinary reference, or personal references if you're a first-time pet owner. Our home checks are not to invade the privacy of the applicants, we do this to ensure the pet is going into a safe home. We do not discriminate against non-homeowners, or those living in apartments, condos, or otherwise.
Our adoption fees vary from $150-1000.
Applicants must agree in writing that if for any reason they are unable to keep or care for their pet, the pet will be surrendered back to our rescue and not re-homed, turned over to a shelter, pound, rescue, new owner, sold, etc.
