Story
Snoopy von Senden is an adorable 3-4 year old 20 pound Chihuahua mixed with a slightly larger breed. Rescued from the South LA animal shelter. Snoopy von Senden is in a foster home, offsite, and is NOT at our rescue location in Los Angeles. IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN Snoopy von Senden YOU MUST FILL OUT AN APPLICATION ON OUR WEBSITE: www.sheprescue.org Application link: http://www.sheprescue.org/Application_to_Adopt_a_Dog%20Main.html Based on our experience, Westside's current thinking is to usually match first-time shepherd owners with a mix versus a purebred shepherd. Mixes are "softer" and somewhat more malleable. Exceptions can be made, however, for first-time adopters who show the confidence and leadership tendencies that purebreds will respect and respond to. Counselors have to use good judgment in assessing the attributes of the adopter, as well as of the dog. If you have doubts, get a second opinion from Robin or another experienced counselor.

Meet Guera, a one-year-old Chihuahua with a heart full of love and a story of survival. This tiny girl came heartbreakingly close to being euthanized at a local Los Angeles shelter—but she was rescued just in time and is now ready to start her happily-ever-after. Guera is fully vetted, healthy, and bursting with energy. She loves everyone she meets—people, dogs, anyone who’ll stop for a cuddle—and she’s quick to share her signature move: endless kisses. Beneath her playful spirit is a gentle, loyal soul who just wants to be loved and safe. Now that she’s been given her second chance, Guera is searching for a forever home in Los Angeles where she can finally relax, play, and shower her new family with affection. She’s proof that even the smallest dogs can have the biggest hearts. If you’ve been hoping for a joyful little companion who’ll remind you every day what gratitude looks like, Guera is waiting to meet you.

Story
Don’t be fooled by this 8 lb. Chihuahua’s size! Walter’s personality could fill a football stadium. This dynamo wants to be the center of your world, and deservedly so. He will binge watch every TV show, take that all important afternoon nap, and then be ready for a nice walk. Other dogs are tolerated, but Walter truly wants to be the star of the household. He's perfect for someone who works from home (he’d love to be your personal assistant) or someone who is retired (he's your buddy for adventures, gardening, shopping, etc)-- Walter’s not picky, his goal is to be your cool companion. Walter is also a foodie--he loves treats and food which makes him very trainable. Walter is suspicious at first of new people (aren’t we all) but give him a few days to settle in and he will be your best friend! This boy was found on the streets and had been hit by a car. Tails of the City stepped in, rescued him, and provided the medical treatment and love this scared and hurt pup needed. Now Walter is waiting for that forever home that will shower him with the love and attention he deserves!   DUE TO COVID ADOPTIONS ARE CANCELLED UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE! MEET AND GREETS AVAILABLE. Adoptions are held every SATURDAY from 1PM – 4PM at the PETCO at 8161 BEVERLY BLVD at La Jolla (1/2 mile east of Beverly Center). Plenty of parking!

Story
Hi, my name is Christophe 🐾 I’m a playful and affectionate Pomeranian who loves cuddles, kisses, tummy rubs, and yummy food. I was adopted at 3 months old in 2017, and since then I’ve grown into a sweet, loving companion who enjoys being close to my people. I adore attention, snuggle time, and spreading joy with my fluffy personality. I would thrive in a home where I can be showered with love, care, and plenty of affection.

Story
Current Location: Korea 🇰🇷 🐾✨ Meet JISU — A Gentle & Sweet Pom Mix Girl Looking for Her Forever Family ✨🐾 🌸 A soft soul who just wants to belong. 🌸 📌 Basic Info 🐶 Name: Jisu (JISU) 🎀 Age: 3 years old 👧 Gender: Female ⚖️ Weight: 4.9 kg 🐾 Breed: Pomeranian Mix 💉 Vaccinations / Spay-Neuter: Completed 💛 Personality & Charm Jisu is shy at first, but she really wants to be close to people. She quietly stays nearby, observes, trusts slowly… and then one day, she melts into your arms and holds on tight. 🥹💞 Calm, gentle, and loving — the perfect companion for a peaceful home. 👨‍👩‍👧 With Adults & Kids 🧑 Adults: Takes time to warm up, but becomes affectionate and loyal once she trusts you 🧒 Kids: Calm and gentle, okay with being next to them or being touched ⚠️ If kids run or shout loudly, she chooses to observe from a distance 🐶 With Other Animals 🐕 Dogs: Excellent! — polite greetings and sometimes playful with her favorite friends 🐱 Cats: Good! — sniffs and ignores 🦜 Lives peacefully with a parrot in her foster home 🚽 House-training ✨ 100% reliable! ✔ Outdoor potty ✔ Indoor pee pads ✔ Balcony turf ➡️ Very easy and stress-free 🔋 Energy Level ⚡ Low ~ Medium 🏡 Quiet and peaceful at home 🐕 At the park, lightly plays with familiar friends or just jogs along with the group 🗣 Separation Anxiety / Barking / Aggression 💛 Separation anxiety: ❌ 🔔 Barking: ❌ (very minimal) 💥 Aggression: ❌ If scared, she may growl or bark once/twice to say “I’m uncomfortable” — never attacks. 🚶‍♀️ Walks & Car Rides 🌳 Loves walking 🪑 If you sit on a bench, she sits right beside you for comfort 🥹 🚗 Excellent in the car — even waits politely before getting in 🏃 Escape Tendency Because she can get startled, double safety (double leash + secure harness) is recommended. In familiar places, even if the leash slips, she stays close and doesn’t run far. ➡️ Once bonded, she wants to stay within her person’s sight ❤️ 🐾 Rescue Story Jisu lived one year at Gokseong Shelter with her sister Subin. On the day they were scheduled for euthanasia, both were rescued together. She was pregnant at the time and later gave birth to three puppies (she is 💗 Pony’s mom). Now, after everything she has survived… it’s finally her turn to be loved. 📍 Jisu is ready for her forever home. She doesn’t need much — just patience, kindness, and a safe heart to land in. 🤍 If you think she may be the missing piece of your family…♡
