Story
MooShoo is one STUNNING boy! Sadly his start was rough.  Part of a seizure from a hoarding home during a tragic fire, when he and dozens others were left behind tethered, in kennels or locked in bird cages.  Despite his start he made it out of the shelter to what he thought would be his hero for life. Shortly after his adoption, he spooked and got out.  Sadly, his new owner sought help to get him caught only after pressure from the community that kept seeing him.  NO JOKE...... After weeks on the run she blocked the trappers number when she called to say he's safe and can go home.  No response to the shelter calls and again his life took a turn, this time for the better.  Volunteers took their time to establish trust, teach confidence and realistic expectations.  He started to thrive.  He loves walks, attention, food and adult people. Due to past trauma, he doesn't do well with people near his rear end, would prefer to not live with kids (due to their unexpected nature) and doesn't do well with other dogs. He loves his people in his inner circle deeply and will do anything to keep them happy.  He will dance to greet you.  He is quiet and undemanding.  He hangs contentedly in his crate between outings.  He transitions well to strangers and enjoys whomever takes him on outings or pack walks.  He just wants to be loved and safe.  It's time for his next step and LAST landing.  Is it your home?  He is waiting for you. ##1716040##

Story
Scarlet, like most of our dogs started running scared from everyone.  She had been seen repeatedly returning to a dog park as if she had been dumped there.  Multiple attempts by people and animal control to catch her had failed with several resulting with her on the nearby freeway before we got the call to help catch her.  She had already been "out" for days and although had a pattern was being chased so covering ground, making trapping hard.  We went with our gut and set at the park where she always seemed to return.  It did the trick and she was safe.  Sadly, as expected no one came forward to claim or pick her up.  She was scared, guarded and true to her primary breed (chow) not the best communicator.  We took things slow, gave her space and time.  She softened up and began to glow.  The big suprise came when she showed us she knows sit, down, shake and even roll over.  What happened and where were her people?    In their absence all we could do was build on what she already knew and start to expand her circle to include strangers and the scary world.  It has taken time but she now approaches people for food, welcomes affection from stangers and her eagerness to interact and please those she knows is irresistable.  She is extremely food motivated, wicked smart and eager to please.  She is balanced with dogs big or small.  Her house training is a work in progrees but getting better.  She is still relatively new to us but her progress has been amazing,  She is starting to show off her playful and silly side.  If you think you don't have the time or ability for a lifetime commitment but enjoy a dog she could really grow best while in foster.  If you enjoy the journey of watching a dog grow and slowly evolve this girl is the one for you. Because of my Flight Risk I cannot be left unattended in a yard, crate training is a must when you are gone, tight grip on the leash is a must on adventures and my new family must be aware of open doors and windows.  NO offleash activities in unfenced areas for life.

Story
Meet Pixie Chick! Pixie was surrendered to Chesterfield Square Shelter by her family in the middle of a vestibular episode. As a senior without any adoption interest at a very over-crowded shelter, Pixie Chick was scheduled to be euthanized, but happily, on May 28th, Pixie Chick instead became a Frosted Face, and her safety and well-being will never be at risk again. This sweet beauty is 14 years old and weighs 37 lbs. She has arthritis that causes stiffness, but when she gets moving, she doesn't want to stop! Pixie Chick loves being outdoors and going on our week FFF hikes, alternating between walking slowly and when she needs a rest, riding in a stroller. She is a friendly and good-natured girl who is great with kids, cats, and dogs! She is quiet, and you can scoop her up like a baby! Pixie Chick's sweet and mellow personality makes her a natural choice to represent FFF at a community events with volunteers and other Frosted Faces. She is a gracious social butterfly, happily meeting people and stopping at every outstretched hand for petting. Pixie Chick has been living in a wonderful Foster home since late September. Her foster mom shares: "Pixie is great with our other dogs. She loves people food, we cook her two meals a day and feed her in between with dog food. We sometimes have to hand feed her if she's having a hard time with her arthritis. Pixie will tell you she had to go. When her tail point outs, she needs to potty. She also wants to be taken out right away upon waking up,and she will be urgent about it. She occasionally can leak or have an accident. but she's upset when she does. She knows to go when outside. Pixie has really bad arthritis and moves slowly and awkwardly, but she doesn't let that stop her from enjoying life!. She does like walking outside and sometimes will speed up and really get moving, but you need to be around in case she falls. She 's a super sweet girl. Lots of soul and spirit still left! Pixie went on a long road trip with her foster family (including 4 other dogs) to Vegas, Mammoth, Santa Cruz, and Santa Barbara. She was a superstar travel buddy! Pixie is looking for a loving and patient forever family who can help her thrive. If you have a spot in your heart for this gentle granny, please email adopt@frostedfacesfoundation.org to schedule a time to meet her.

Story
Meet Woodstock! Woodstock entered Riverside Shelter as a stray, and when he wasn't claimed, we scooped him up on November 12th to become a Frosted Face. He is about 8 years old and weighs just under 38 lbs. Woodstock is a sweet dog who looks like he's had a hard life. He could definitely benefit from some cozy blankets and beds while being spoiled with love. We will add more information about this handsome newbie as he settles in. You are welcome to stop by any day of the week between 10 AM and 3 PM to meet Woodstock and our other Frosted Faces. Hope to see you soon!

Story
Meet Damfour!DOB: December 2019Weight: 33 lbsDisposition: Affectionate, Silly, ShyHistory: Rescued from the streets of Thailand by Soi Dog Foundation and brought to TBL to find his forever homeMeet Damfour, affectionately known as Dino by his foster family, a sweet and timid pup who's undergone a remarkable transformation. At first, he resembled a scared dinosaur, but after just a week with his fosters, his silly, sweet, and sassy personality emerged. Now, he loves cuddling up close to his foster mom and their rescue pup Koda, showering them with kisses and affection. He enjoys walks as the caboose, nibbling on meat treats (and recently discovering a love for greenies), and chewing on his stuffed animals. While still spooked by loud noises, Dino's confidence is growing by leaps and bounds. He's house-trained, adorable, and a great fly catcher! At 33 pounds, Damfour is the perfect size for cuddles and adventures. Although he may need some time to warm up to new people, his endearing personality makes him a wonderful companion for the right family. With a bit of patience and socialization, Damfour is sure to thrive in a loving home ready to embrace his quirks and shower him with love.
