Story

Looking for an eager, goofy pup who wants to learn and to please? That's me, Oso! I love kids, I love my walks, am about a year and a half old, I'm housetrained, crate trained and now am also leash trained! What's next??? Bring it on! I also love finding sticks on the ground and taking them with me- guess you'll want to work on that. next I am a large pup - I was 70 lbs in early May and am still growing. Did you know that I like to talk? Yep, I do. I am a work-in-progress regarding doggie manners with other dogs but am never aggressive - I just never was taught the right way. Oh...remember that I like those sticks? I like them because I love to chew on things. My foster mom always puts me in my crate when she is gone to make sure she sets me up for success (a fancy way to say that she keeps me from chewing on things). TLRD isn't sure of my story and I'm doing all I can to move on - why dwell on the past? The theory is that my owners were evicted and I was left behind. I was running loose in a neighborhood for a few days when a nice lady happened to walk across the street. I liked her and she was able to catch me. Ready for puppy energy? Ready for a working dog who wants to work for you and please you? Then you are in the right spot! Fill out an application for me today!November 4, 2024, 8:32 pm

Lola

German Shepherd Dog Belgian Shepherd

Rancho Santa Margarita, CA

Size

Details

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

Story

Lola is an affectionate, intelligent and playful puppy with a great temperament. (I’ve been told by Wags &. Wiggles that “I got lucky.”). I did get lucky and am thankful that we were able to get her out of the high-kill Riverside County Coachella shelter and offer her a good, happy start. Lola was intended to be my adult granddaughter’s dog, but shortly after we adopted her, my granddaughter got a job where she works long hours. So I have assumed full responsibility for Lola at the age of 77 - walking her twice a daily and taking her to the dog park. I enjoy the active time I’m spending with her now, but do not think I am the best choice for her over her/my life span. I would love to have her find the right family while she’s still a puppy. Lola is an amazing dog. She is curious and seems to understand everything, and always wants to please. I will miss her dearly but will rejoice in knowing she has a lifetime home with an active family. Donation will go to Coastal GSD.

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

Details

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

Story

Her story: Our family adopted Lucy from the Mission Viejo Animal Shelter 3 years ago and she has been a wonderful, loving dog the entire time with our family, including two young daughters. However, Lucy has separation anxiety, and we realized this only about a year ago after we took her in. As our girls are getting older and more busy we are home less and less. She needs more attention than we are able to provide in our very busy lives right now. Lucy will wake us up at night and she gets very anxious whenever we leave for work and she escapes and tries to come and find us. So we are trying to find her an owner who can take care of her better than we can. She is very smart, great going on walks, 100% potty trained, is spade, has all of her shots, has no aggressive behavior what-so-ever, loves her family a great deal. We are looking to find someone to care for Lucy and provide her the companionship and loving home
