Meet Summer! She is a 5 year old Papillon/Spaniel mix (we are guessing). She is 11 pounds and is a total cuddle bug. She is very smart and has very good house manners. She is housebroken, sleeps quietly in her crate at night and is not a nuisance barker. Even though she would love to join in with the other dogs to bark at the mailman, she has learned not to join in. Summer gets along with other dogs and likes to play with her foster brother occasionally. But her true calling in life is to be a lap dog! We feel her ideal will be one that allows her humans to be home more often than not. Her foster mom is retired now (so we aren’t sure how she would do if she was left alone for 8-10 hours a day.) But if your family has a staggered schedule or you’re retired then Summer might be your girl! She definitely prefers women to men. We aren’t sure what happened to her before she came to us but she takes a bit longer to warm up to men. She just isn’t as trusting of men as she is women. Honestly, we believe her 7th heaven would be a retired single woman who wants a loyal companion to just hang out with all day. She doesn’t need a ton of exercise, and she is quite content to lay in the recliner and watch tv with you. Summer is a shy and timid dog and needs a confident owner that can help build her confidence she tends to take on the emotions of her owners so if you are anxious, then so is she. If you are able calm then you will be able to help her be calm and follow you. She is needs an experienced dog owner that will help her overcome her “Nervous Nelly” habits. She is doing wonderfully in her foster home because her foster is calm and no nonsense with Summer. She needs you to be her pack leader.Our adoptions are restricted to residents within 30 miles of the South Bay area of Los Angeles. We do not ship animals or do long distance adoptions.

Noah's Bark restricts pet adoptions to residences within a 30 mile radius of the South Bay area of Los Angeles. We do not ship animals nor do we do any type of long distance adoptions. We do not adopt to persons under 21 years of age. We require prospective adopters to meet both us and the animal, fill out an application and be interviewed. Adoptions are not done a first come first serve basis. Generally, applications are accepted online, approved applications are scheduled for a private meet and greet, and applicants are selected based upon the best match of the particular pet's temperament and needs. A meet and greet does not guarantee a dog will be placed with you. If an application is approved we usually will require home check so we can ensure the animals safety. These pets are not for sale and the decision of where to place them is solely at the discretion of Noah's Bark. We reserve the right to refuse placement of our pets to any individual who does not meet our criteria. We also reserve the right to keep our reasons for refusal confidential within our organization. The welfare of our rescue animals is our top priority.
There is a required tax-deductible adoption fee for each dog. The adoption fee is $300 - $400 for dogs and $500 for puppies (note some purebreds and smaller dogs may be adopted at a higher fee. Seniors and special needs pets may be adopted at a reduced fee). The adoption fee must be paid via cash, Venmo, or PayPal. A spay/neuter deposit by check is required for puppy adoptions. The adoption fee is used to help offset some of the cost needed to operate our rescue organization. All of our animals are spayed/neutered, vet checked, vaccinated and dewormed prior to placement.
We have an adoption contract which requires you to return the animal to Noah's Bark if at anytime you should no longer be able to keep your pet. Pets adopted through Noah's Bark can not be sold, traded, given away or disposed of in any way. Although all of our animals are thoroughly evaluated, we cannot guarantee their health or temperament.

More about this rescue
Noah's Bark is an all-volunteer 501(c)(3) non-profit local pet rescue organization based in the Los Angeles South Bay area. We are committed to finding permanent and happy homes for unwanted and homeless pets in our community. The organization was founded by Lila Hemenway in 1997. We rescue and rehome approximately 300 pets each year. Our organization does not have a shelter, volunteers provide foster care for animals while they await placement. Pets come to us as strays, owner turn ins and from LA area shelters. We get dogs of all sizes and ages, purebreds and mixes alike. Although we primarily rescue dogs and puppies, we also occasionally have cats and kittens for adoption.
