Story
Duke was adopted 9 years ago from a non-profit rescue. He was about 3 months old and was found with a 2 year old dog. The caregiver did not want to split up the two, so we took them both. His buddy passed about 3 years ago. Duke is a caregiver for other dogs. Any dog we have around, Duke likes to clean their eyes, ears. He follows them and enjoys company of a buddy dog - no matter how large. As you can see, he is a Deer Headed Chihuahua with log legs (#4 leg shot). He has amazing hearing and will let you know when any Delivery person is on the way to your door. Duke has had vet exams yearly and according to our Veterinarian, is a healthy little 10 lb dog. He does not like to be cuddled by humans, but does like to have a fluffy bed, sleep under a blanket or near another dog. He made it out of the Campfire with our family and he is the last dog out of the bunch. We are moving to a Condo in SoCal and cannot bring him. I do not want to subject him to the pound.

Story
Meet Gallette; this shy girl is looking for a patient, understanding home. Gallette has known nothing but uncertainty in her young life, finding herself at a high kill shelter, where her life was on the line, to finding sanctuary at a new rescue, with new smells, sounds and dogs. Gallette is misunderstood and confused; she doesn't understand why every human she has started to trust, has handed her off to someone else, where she has to start again. This girl tries her hardest to overcome her fears, but in a noisy rescue environment, it proves hard to do so. If you think you have the time, patience, and understanding to give a young dog, with so much love to give and receive, please consider applying to meet and or foster Gallette today!November 6, 2024, 11:54 pm

Story
Mender is a 6 lb bundle of personality. He loooves to play with humans and toys and makes hilarious growling noises while getting chased around. But his greatest love is of sunbathing. He also enjoys sitting in your lap in the morning as he wakes up. He acts quite catlike in how he cleans himself often. He is excellent on leash, housetrained, and crate trained. He knows sit, paw, and down. He only barks when someone is at the door, but quiets down quickly with a firm “shh!”.  He will go into his crate on his own at 9:30pm for bedtime. He loves his routines! He would make an excellent travel companion as he fits well in a pet carrier and is only 11 inches tall at the shoulder.   He displays aggression towards other dogs as his now-healed jaw injury was likely caused by another dog, but can warm up to co-exist peacefully with another dog (it just takes a few days of adjustment - see photo!). He is so small that he cannot inflict any damage, so if you have a non-aggressive dog at home, he would do very well.November 6, 2024, 11:54 pm

Story
Mac is a young two-year old male black with white furnishings male dog. He is 50% Cattle Dog and 50% German Shepherd - per Embark DNA. He is excellent on leash but has NO recall off leash - he is high energy, with a fabulous personality. Dislikes cats but is bonded to Flea who is a two-year old pure bred Chihuahua(you will have Mac and Flea, not Mac and Cheese). Flea worships the ground that Mac walks on but he also does not allow himself to be pushed around. He lives to sit on someone's lap and be cuddled when he is not following Mac. These two boys were strays and their owner has never been found. It is time for these two gorgeous boys to go to a home where they are loved and appreciated for their temperaments, intelligence and great looks. Mac weighs about 60 pounds and Flea weighs 4 pounds.

She’s such a great dog. I’ve had her for 6 years, she’s well trained. Listens very well. She loves to relax and play fetch. We had a baby a year and a half ago. She’s not great with kids. I’ve known that, I thought it would get better. I just want her to find a loving home.

Hello, I'm Henri. I'm have a sweet, friendly, and gentle spirit. I'm mellow and love nothing more than to cuddle. I'm a lap dog at heart, and I promise to be loyal to you. I enjoy the quiet, so a peaceful home is my dream. I don't ask for much, just a cozy lap to snuggle on and a quiet place to call home. I do have to take some meds so I don't have seizures, but they're just $20 a month and they work really well! I haven't had a seizure since taking them. I promise, I'm worth every penny. I've got so much love to give and I'm ready to share it with you. If you're looking for a loyal, loving companion, I'm your guy. Adopt me and let's start our forever friendship. Breed: Chihuahua mix Sex: Neutered Male Age: 5 years Size: 15 lbs Arrival Date: 1-13-24 Henri is up to date on shots, neutered, heart worm tested negative and microchipped.

Story
MEET COOPER - Cooper is a sweet little guy, He is definitely a Velcro dog. He loves to be with his people and loves to be pet. He is a bit reserved when meeting new people, he lacks full confidence, he is getting more comfortable as he learns humans can be Safe. He is a really good boy. He listens other than the personal space thing. He will go in a crate on his own if he needs to. He hasn’t caused any issues and has been fine sleeping on the bed of his foster parents. He appears long hair chihuahua and something else. Possibly Pomeranian. The google image of him comes up a Kokoni dog from Greece, that breed is not on the option list. Second search comes up Pomchi (Pomeranian and chihuahua) whatever he is he is an absolute doll baby and has tons of personality. Cooper is now Neutered, vaccinated and microchipped. If you believe Cooper is your love match, please email us with a little information about yourselves and how Cooper would spend his days with you, to gooddogk9rescue@yahoo.com Thank you - Good Dog K9 Rescue Inc.

Story
Meet Rascal! This adorable dude surely lives up to his name! Rascal is a young dog, that loves to play and roughhouse. Rascal can be a little possessive over his toys and items (can you blame him, after having to share everything for so long, growing up in a rescue?) but he's young, and should handle training well, as long as you are willing to dedicate a little time to it. Rascal gets along great with other dogs, and he loves people, especially once he really starts to trusts you! If you are looking for an adorable face to add to your family photos, and don't mind putting in a little bit of work, apply to meet the adorable Rascal today!November 6, 2024, 11:54 pm
