Meet Artic! We should have named her Perfect! This 1.5yr old husky girl is a dream dog.

This amazing girl will light up your life and be your best friend. She's potty trained, loves toys and treats and has a gentle play style and a very submissive personality. She's been spayed, vaccinated and chipped and she's waiting for you! Email us your application ASAP! Currently being fostered in Bakersfield area.

Bakersfield, CA

Size

(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)

Details

Good with kids, Good with dogs, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Meet sweet Simba who was listed in the shelter at 6yrs old but we think he might be a little older, around 7-8. He's a very kind soul that just wants love and attention. He loves to be pet, seems a little chunky with curse coat and looks like he just didn't have a caring owner. He would make a great companion and possibly an easy couch potato doggie as well. He really touched our hearts and had to save him off of the euthanasia list. He's very people friendly and dog friendly so he'd be an easy addition to your pack. He deserves to be spoiled with walks and love and he's great on a leash. We're still learning about him but he needs a foster home or adoptive home, please open your heart and home for our handsome Simba boy!

Border Collie

Female, Adult

Bakersfield, CA

Size

(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less

Details

Good with kids, Good with dogs, Good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Misty was spotted in a large open field close to a freeway. She was seen hobbling. I attempted to go get her but the moment she spotted me, she ran with her back leg up. It almost seems impossible to catch her, so, we left food on that field every day for 3 weeks until we placed a trap. She was so emacited, so sad, so broken. She went into a foster home and that is where she flourished. She loves dogs, she is housetrained, she is learning commands quickly and she loves to cuddle. She turned out to be the perfect dog! She didn't need surgery for her leg, only steroid shots that will last a few weeks. She is ready to call a family hers.
