Story
Jax is 11 years old and 2 months. I unfortunately am allergic to Jax and am sad to have to re-home him, however it is necessary. I have tried to live with this but it is impossible. I am just to sensitive and allergic. He is has a microchip. He is potty trained. He likes Wellness dog can food I have given him grain free dog food. I also cook him extra people food like scramble eggs, and beef and lamb. He is allergic to chicken and poultry. Jax is very sweet and will make a wonderful pet. Also very loyal. Loves to snuggle up to you and is welcoming of people when they come over. He loves to walk. Jax is friendly, mellow, and affectionate, reported to enjoy cuddling and burrow in blankets. I adopted Jax from another family. Who already had another dog. I am looking for a loving home who will give a lot of care and attention. Great for an older person who would like company or a family as well. Great with kids. Please consider adopting for possible an older parent or older child.

Story
Hello World! I’m Cute, Cuddly and Completely Charming Cami, an adorable little bichon girl who is full of life, love and puppy energy! I’m 18 months old, weigh 15 pounds and stand about 14 inches tall — which Mom says is the perfect size for cuddling (and I definitely agree!). I love everybody and am always excited to see what’s going on around me. Mom says I’m sweet, playful, attentive, eager to please and super smart (and I think she’s absolutely right!). I also LOVE to give kisses, look right into your eyes and make you fall in love with me. (It works every time!) One of my very favorite things in the whole wide world is snuggling. I adore curling up on laps, rolling onto my back for belly rubs and soaking up all the love I can get. When I’m not cuddling, I’m busy playing! I trot around proudly with my toys (every toy is my new best friend!) and I love to play with my doggy brother — sometimes I even “stalk” him to get a game started. It’s all in good fun! I’m an active girl who enjoys long walks (over a mile, please!) needs more leash training and would really, really love another young, playful pup in my forever home. I get along well with other dogs and have lots of fun trying to engage them in play. I just have a big zest for life and sometimes I get a little too excited — especially when my people come home. I might jump or give playful little nips, but if you help me settle down with a calm voice or a gentle hold, I do much better. I’m still learning how to regulate my excitement, and I promise I’m working hard on it! I ride nicely in the car (yay for adventures!) and I’m learning my house manners. I’m partially housebroken and getting better every day with consistency and praise. I also know some basics like “no,” “off,” and I come when my name is called. Mom says I’m very smart, so with a little guidance I’ll keep improving quickly! Because I’m still such a young, puppy-like girl, I’m looking for a family who has experience with dogs and is excited to continue my training. I’m full of potential and just need the right people to help me shine. My Ideal Home: *Someone home often who can help guide me *Another young, active and playful dog would be amazing *A home committed to training and helping me learn to manage my excitement *Older, dog-savvy children or an adult home would be best while I continue learning Experience Level: *Have had dogs as an adult *Recent/current dog experience preferred *Commitment to ongoing training I’m a special girl with so much love to give. I’m sweet, cuddly, playful and I bond closely with my people. I’ll look into your eyes, give you kisses and remind you every single day how much I adore you. I’m working very hard to become the very best version of myself so I can find my forever family — one who will love me, guide me and make me part of their life. So if you’re looking for a loving, energetic, snuggly little companion (with a playful sparkle and a heart of gold), please complete an application and ask for me. I’ll be waiting with a wagging tail and lots of kisses! Tail wags and cuddles, Cute, Cuddly and Charming Cami 💕

Story
Fostered in LA Hello New Friends, My name is Zippy and I’m an adorable, affectionate and oh-so-handsome Bichon boy of five and about 17 pounds of soft, pearly white hair who loves to cuddle, play and be right by your side. I’m a sweet, trusting little guy who is very responsive and eager to please. I love people and enjoy being talked to—honestly, my foster Mom says she thinks I'm very smart -- and that I understand just about everything she (or you) says to me! I’m what you might call the perfect mix of playful and cuddly. I love to chase my toys and carry them around (don’t worry—I’m very gentle!) and I’m also happy to entertain myself with a tasty treat or a good chew. I might get a little mouthy when I’m playing, but just remind me to be “gentle” and I’ll give you kisses instead. (See, I told you I’m smart!) And when playtime is over I’m more than ready to curl up next to you for a cozy nap. Mom says I’m a wonderful companion. I’m housebroken (a total champ, if I do say so myself!), I know how to sit, and I’ll come running when you whistle -- or call my name. I’m very obedient, clever and super food motivated—which means I’m ready and willing to learn anything you’d like to teach me. I ride nicely in the car, too, though sometimes all the outside sights and sounds can make me a bit nervous. Now, I want to be honest with you—because the best relationships are built on trust! When I’m on a leash in the big, busy world, I get overwhelmed and overstimulated by all the activity around me. It’s really scary out there for me! Because of that, I would prefer to be in a home with a nice yard where I can play safely and comfortably. And, with time and patience, my BFK Aunties know that I can overcome my reactions but in the meantime a yard to run and sun in would be my drream. And the good news: when I’m off leash in any home environment, I’m a gentle, curious little houseguest who does great with people and can get along with other pups, too. I really want to play with any dog friends that might be around, but I also really want to hang with my humans, too. Mom says I’m especially special because of my beautiful coat—it practically glows in the sunlight and is as soft as can be. I love it when I get brushed -- it feels so nice! But what really makes me shine is my loving heart. I’m the kind of pup who just wants to be close to my people, soaking up affection and giving it right back. My Ideal Home: An adults-only home A house with a yard for playtime Someone patient and experienced who understands how to work on my leash training A family or couple who wants a loving, cuddly companion Another friendly, playful pup would be welcome, but not required Experience level: Experienced dog owner (especially with leash reactive pups) I’m as sweet as I am snuggly… as playful as I am loving… and just waiting for the right person to help me feel safe and confident in this big world. All I really want is a forever family who will guide me, love me, and let me be your loyal little companion. If that sounds like you, please complete our adoption application. I'll look forward to meeting you so please ask for me by my name! Tail wags and cuddles, Zippy 💙

Story
Biscuit is an angel. He is a Bichonpoo. Ithat is under 2 years old. I don’t want to re-home him, but I have no choice. My other dog, that I’ve had longer, keeps attacking Biscuit. Biscuit is passive and gets along with most dogs, but he has been picked on. Biscuit is NOT potty trained, although I have tried. He will need a love and experienced owner that can train him, walk him a lot and give him lots of love. Biscuit is not used to people as he’s usually only only around me. People scare him until he gets to know them. Whoever adopts him will need to be very patient with him. Once he does feel safe, he’s a total love dog. He is not fixed because only one testicle dropped and surgery would be required to get him fixed. Shot info can be further discussed.

These pups are in Oceanside, California too!

Story
How this pet arrived: Ojay was brought in by Field Service officer on February 23, 2026. Why this pet is the one for you:Say hello to Ojay! Ojay is a gentle, thoughtful pup whose sweet personality is starting to blossom a little more every day. He can be a bit shy when meeting new people, but with a little time and patience, his charm really begins to shine through. Once he feels safe and comfortable, you'll start to see just how special this sensitive boy is. Ojay will thrive in a calm home where he can settle in at his own pace and build confidence. Ojay must go to a home with another friendly, confident dog of a similar size. Having a canine companion helps him feel safe and gives him a role model for everyday dog life. With a dog buddy by his side, Ojay gains confidence and feels much more comfortable exploring the world around him. A quieter household will suit him best, somewhere with a steady routine and not too much hustle and bustle. If there are kids in the home, they should be 12 or older and join a meet-and-greet so Ojay can make sure everyone passes the vibe check. Ojay is still learning some of the basics, including leash walking, but he's eager to keep learning with someone who will cheer him on along the way. With patience, encouragement, and a steady routine, Ojay will continue to grow and show just how sweet and special he truly is.Shy/Fearful Dog: Ojay requires a virtual behavior consult, please watch THIS video to learn more about them.At SDHS:Ojay has been vaccinated, microchipped and neutered. He is now ready for his new home! Primary Color: White Weight: 10.4 Age: 5yrs 1mths 2wks
