Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Lola is being surrendered to me by my long time and trusted foster family.  Unfortunately, 5 + yrs. ago Lola, was abandoned with them by her original family.   My fosters were babysitting Lola while her family was away on vacation, but they never came back for her. So, she's been with them for over 5 yrs. now. I have always known that Lola does not do well with one of the other senior females in the house.  Regardless they continued to work with Lola to make it work, but it's not working. It's gotten worse and I agree with them it's best to rehome Lola. Their other dog is a tripod chihuahua and getting weaker in her old age.  These 2 seniors need peace in their lives.  Lola is a chihuahua mix about 8-9 yrs. old now.  She's a good dog and very loving but should probably be an only dog or with another friendly male dog her size. She loves attention and older considerate children. She's 100% potty trained.  She sleeps through the night. And oh boy does she love her walks and hikes.  She would be a wonderful companion dog!!!  Lola is fully vaccinated, spayed and microchipped.  If you live in San Diego County or surrounding areas own a home with a yard and 6-foot fence and want to foster or adopt Lola please complete one of our online applications at tlck9rescue.org   Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.November 5, 2024, 9:16 pm

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Meet Luther, he's an old soul with a big heart. Luther was on the euthanasia list and lucky for us we were able to save him. Luther is not shy; he loves everyone he meets and will make himself at home everywhere he goes. I'm not sure about Luther's past but he is a very independent little guy. He is very treat motivated, potty trained and great on leash. I believe Luther was malnourished and starved in his lifetime so he is bowlegged but that just adds to his charm. He is good around other animals and still learning what cats are. He follows directions and listens very well. Luther is easy as it gets. Luther is up to date with his vaccinations and just had a dental done. if you own a home in the San Diego County area have a yard and fence and would like to adopt Luther please fill out an adoption application at tlck9rescue.orgVisit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.November 11, 2024, 3:07 pm
