Story
Hello, I’m Maximus — a 9-year-old pit bull mix with a big heart. I’ve had a bit of a rough year as an Eaton Fire survivor and lost my home, but I’m ready for a fresh start with someone who gets me.I’m an 80-pound gentle giant — calm and sweet. I’m potty trained, never jump, and I’m super respectful when humans are eating. I`m great with all people including kids, and just want to be petted and loved. At first, I might be a little nervous, but give me some time and I’ll melt right into your lap for cuddles.I sleep through the night in my dog bed, and I’m a good boy when left home alone — no chewing or messes. I’m looking for a home where I can be the only dog because I get a bit reactive around other pups. I’m a strong boy and sometimes pull on the leash while walking, so I need a confident adopter who can handle me.I love soaking up under the sun, I’m low maintenance, and all I really want is your love. If that sounds like a buddy you’re looking for, please come meet me ??Learn more about our adoption process.

Story
Ruffles weighs around 60 pounds, but he doesn`t let that stop him from being a super snuggly lap dog! Aside from snuggling, Ruffles` other interests include exploring, eating cheese, and getting butt scratches. With some of the most handsome wrinkles you’ve ever seen (and the cutest short ears), he`s truly one of a kind!Ruffles is incredibly people-focused and will do just about anything to stay close to his person. He truly gives his whole heart to the one he loves. He’s affectionate, goofy, and the kind of loyal companion that makes every day better just by being there.Ruffles would thrive in a calm home where he can be your one and only pet. In return, he will be an endlessly lovable companion!I`m available for a 10 day adoption trial!Learn more about our adoption process.

Story
Looking for a companion who acts half her age? Or looks like a big powderpuff? Sweet poodle-mix Anoushik is both! This adorable bundle of fun and energy may be listed as 12 years old but you`d never know it from her enthusiasm at several of our off-campus events, where she eagerly met new adults, children and dogs. When Anoushik came to us, she had a bad allergy that caused patches of her skin to be severely inflamed. But our health staff treated her successfully and her fur has started growing back in. (With the soft fluffy fur she already has, she looks like a lamb!) Anoushik likes to spend time at the front of her kennel, looking through the bars to say hello to people passing by. And she loves to walk around the park next to our shelter and would love to walk around your neighborhood, too!Learn more about our adoption process.
