Story
Baby Bear is a 9 year old pitbull mix. He was rescued on November 14 of 2014. We estimated he was 3 months at the time, we found him crated and abandoned. It took a long time to get where we are now, he was a hard rescue to train because he was so frightened from the moment we found him. He is house trained and knows MANY commands and is always learning. He is not good with other animals and unfortunately we found out he is not good with babies. We have a 5 week old at home, he was doing well until recently. We believe he sees the baby as an animal and wants to attack the baby. Due to this we need to find a new home. We tried different tactics to help with the adjustment but unfortunately none have worked. He is sooooo loved and I want the best for him. Right now we are keeping him in his crate (he is crate trained) for the majority of the day which is unfair for him. He is an indoor dog and has been all his life. He had double knee surgery in 2020.

Story
Hunter was rescued from a Tribal Reservation where he was abandoned on a hot 115 degree day this summer. He is a 60 lbs. housebroken male CVAC shelter dog that I am fostering at my home. He is a very loving dog once you become his friend which is easy. Hunter was rehabilitated medically by me and is completely healthy. I have all the veterinarian records. He has also been vaccinated for rabies, micro-chipped and neutered by CVAC. Hunter gets along nicely with my greyhound on walks, however, my greyhound is not so happy with his puppy energy at home that Hunter still has at 2 years old. Hunter enjoys eating kibble food, and is very cute drinking water directly from a bottle if you want to do that. He is being trained to rein in his puppy energy to stop pulling forward and settle down. He rides in a car beautifully. He is submissive if you pick him up. His tail is almost always up and he loves to wag it. He enjoys playing with his toys, outside play area, walks and fun dog park outings.

Story
Rex was saved from the Coachella Valley Animal Campus in Riverside County. It is one of the highest kill shelters in the nation. He was a litter of 8 and is being fostered in the Coachella Valley. He is a star ⭐️ in the making! He is crate trained, walks fairly well on a leash. Sleeps through the night from 8pm-6am normally with no accidents. He loves other dogs and people. He knows sit, come, he sits before he eats and is working on stay or wait, he is silly and sweet! Loves chew toys and can actually be chill sometimes in his kennel. He enjoys walks, sunbathing and water play! He has been lovingly raised in a home with his brother Roo and 3 small dogs. Although he would do best in a home with dogs his size or bigger. He will be around 45lbs full grown. He is food aggressive and will need to be fed in a spot all his own. He can take treats with other dogs but must be told when it is his turn. Needs a strong leader who is kind and loving.
