Story
During my military veteran retreat in Hesperia desert California. Sunny came up to me all mangled and skinny. I quickly took her in and get her all taking care of such as food, water, shelter and medicine that she needed. She looks like she had a litter but is very young the Vet said maybe 1 years of age max. She is spayed but not microchipped. She gets along with dogs and cat and other animals. She loves kids and plays with them a lot in the park. I cannot keep her because of the new restrictions we have with the HOA at Lake San Marcos. No other family member will not take her in because they have too many animals already and the shelter is on hold. Just looking for a family that wants a new pets who is playful and lovable. She doesn't bite nor she barks at people or objects such as cars or random dogs. Sunny is now 4 years old and still living with me no one will adopt her plus the shelter will not accept animals. She is good with kids and dogs loves to play.

Story
Remi is such a great girl. It really breaks my heart to have to rehome her. Unfortunately, because of the economy I have had to pick up several extra shifts to cover bills and feel like I cannot give her the attention she needs. Remi is very energetic and would do best with someone that is active. She is crate trained and does well. I really just want her to go to a family that is going to love and care for her and give her the attention she needs. She does like to jump on you out of excitement btu she is great with people and kids. Very smart and learns easily

Size
(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)
Details
Good with kids, Good with dogs, Good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
His name is Brooks, he is 5 years old. He loves to cuddle. Unfortunately my housing situation has changed drastically and I don’t have room for him to run around and some in the household are allergic. He is up to date on his vaccinations and has papers to prove. He is neutered. No known health problems. He is fully house trained. He is good on car rides. He likes to run but also when it’s time to lay down he does. He loves to give kisses. RARELY ever barks. He is great with kids. I have a younger brother who messes with him and he has never snapped, growled or bit him. He would do best as an only dog/pet household. I will give you all of his supplies: kennel, retractable leash, toys, bed, any remaining food, treats etc.
