My story

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

The prettiest little princess....meet Shelby!

This little fluff ball is Shelby and she is a female, 4 month old, 8lb Cockapoo (as best as we can guess)/Poodle mix that is the most darling thing ever! Shelby came to us when she was purchased by a young man who got her for his girlfriend at 8 weeks old. Shelby didn't last more than a little over a month before they both decided that they didn't want her, stating that a puppy is "too much!" The owners were ready to give her away to the first person they could not caring one bit where she went. Thankfully, a friend of theirs reached out to us and asked if we could take her into our foundation and we said yes! Shelby is brand new with us and we are still learning about her, but from what we can see...she is one happy and playful puppy! She definitely needs another "young" and "playful" pup in the home. She cannot be an "only" dog. If you do not have another dog we do have a couple of adoptable pups that she is best friends with and one could be adopted with her. We have Toby a 1 year old, male Chiweenie and Tali a 3-4 year old, female, Maltese/Terrier mix. She also needs a home with a safe and secure backyard to run around in. We are looking for owners that are home most of the day and not gone long hours, along with being puppy savvy. Shelby is a breed that needs full grooming every 6 weeks, so potential adopters must be ok with that. This little ball of energy is ALL puppy and she needs owners that are patient, nurturing, and loving. She is very young and is still gnawing on everything including furniture and shoes, so she needs a puppy proof home. Please note that she cannot be crated. Sweet little Shelby is one amazing little puppy that deserves the best home out there!
We only adopt in the Greater Los Angeles Areas as an in person meet/greet, home check and trial period are required.

More about this rescue

THE FORGOTTEN DOG FOUNDATION rescues, rehabilitates and re-homes shelter, stray, abused and abandoned dogs. Our goal is to place our rescues in foster homes rather than in boarding facilities. After temperament assessment, needed veterinary services, and lots of attention and socialization we carefully screen and place these dogs in loving forever homes.
