*This is a courtesy listing.* Meet Hope - a Sweet Senior Girl Looking for a Loving Home! Hope is a 12-year-old sweetheart who's looking for a cozy spot to spend her golden years. Her previous owner can no longer care for her, and we are hoping to find a compassionate new family for this gentle soul. About Hope: Personality: Quiet, calm, and affectionate. She enjoys snuggling and is very low-maintenance. Health: Hope is blind, so she relies on her other senses to navigate her surroundings. Despite her age and limited vision, she remains a loving companion. Needs: She only requires a few potty breaks throughout the day and will appreciate a comfortable, secure environment where she can feel safe. Compatibility: Hope gets along well with both cats and other dogs, making her a great addition to a multi-pet household. Hope may be a bit older, but her heart is full of love to give. If you're looking for a calm and friendly companion who thrives on affection and gentle care, Hope could be the perfect match for you. If you're interested in giving Hope a forever home, please contact James at (562) 208-1808 or Jchurricane93@gmail.com. *Frosted Faces Foundation has not assessed this dog medically or behaviorally.*

*This is a courtesy listing.* Do you have love in your heart for a sweet, gentle companion? Meet Skeeter! Hi, I'm Skeeter! At 11 years young, I'm a lovable senior dog looking for a forever home. My elderly mom can no longer care for me, and I'm hoping to find a new human to shower with love! About Me: * Personality: I'm mellow and affectionate. * Ideal Home: I prefer to be the only dog in the household, as I'm more of a people lover than a dog lover! * Barking: I'm pretty quiet, but I'll bark to let you know someone's at the door. Once they're inside, I'll be very happy to have company and make them feel right at home. Health: * Neutered * Up-to-date on vaccines * Weight: I weigh a very healthy 24 lbs. I used to be chubby, and after I got in shape, I was left with a little loose skin on my chest. * I had a seizure a long time ago but have been seizure-free since! I take medication that costs about $30 a month, and I've been doing great. My last checkup was on 7/20/24, and I'm healthy guy! What I Come With: * My bed, blankets, collar, harness, leash * Medical records, leftover meds, treats, and some starter food From My Family: We're very worried about Skeeter and hope he finds a loving home. He deserves to be cherished! If you're interested in giving Skeeter a loving home or have questions, please text or call Linda at 760-805-6218. *Frosted Faces Foundation has not assessed this dog medically or behaviorally.*
