Story
Looks like: Shih Tzu Male, 13 years old (estimated), 19 pounds Adorable Brando would like to make you an offer you can't refuse! He is looking for a calm home with a sunbathing spot, belly rubs and treats, and slow, sniffy walks surveying his territory. In exchange, he can offer you a super easygoing, mellow temperament: he's good on leash, comfortable being left alone, not vocal, gets along with cats, and gets along with other dogs (though he is more interested in being a couch potato than playing). Brando is a friendly guy who loves meeting new people and loves to be handled and snuggled with. Bonus? Glimpses of his adorable tongue sticking out even when he's asleep. Brando may be spry for his age, but he would prefer to be in a home where the main focus is relaxing. Are you ready to welcome this cutie as the godfather of your home? Brando came to us as a stray picked up by Ventura County Animal Services.

Story
Looks like: Poodle, Shih Tzu mix Male, 13 years old (estimated), 9 pounds Little wild child Donny is an absolute wonder. This adorable little man has been through a lot in his days, and is currently a bit wobbly on his feet. We hope this condition is something temporary and doesn't slow him down. Resilient little Donny was surrendered to Hitchcock Road Animal Services when his guardian was no longer able to meet his medical needs.

Story
Hi, I'm Enzo. As in Ferrari. Although I in no way resemble one, I like to think I'm quick, especially around mealtime. My top speed on a good day is about three miles per hour. If I could wear tennis shoes, I would be a real five-pound force of nature! I'm full grown, but since I'm still a young pup I like to run and play, so if you want me, at least one other dog in the home is required. I mean, you don't want me tearing up the furniture, now do ya'? I rather spend my time running around with my homey than removing the stuffing from your sofa. Blech!!! How to best describe me. Well, like a fine wine, I'm sweet yet feisty. Delicate yet firm. Sublime yet pedestrian. I mean I'm a dog, for cryin' out loud! I think you'll agree, however, I possess movie star good looks. Maybe not leading man material, but impressive just the same. If I were human, rather than Leo DeCaprio, I would be more of a bobble-head Joe Pesci. But these lips! Look out Mick Jagger, I'm coming for you. Yeah ladies, read 'em and weep. No fillers here. This muzzle is the real thing. I'll bring plenty of pizzazz to your life. Your days of bingeing on boring reruns of Blacklist are over. Watch me instead, I'm eminently more entertaining. I'll captivate you with my charms, gaze at you with my big Puss-in-Boots brown eyes, and you'll be smitten. Next thing you know we'll be cruising through Starbucks for daily puppucinos. I'll be sleeping on your bed and wearing designer sweaters. Fortunately, I've never seen the inside of a shelter and never will. It's been nothing but champagne wishes and caviar dreams for this canine Casanova. I'm ready and able to give slobbery kisses. These lips are made for smooching, so pucker up and let's go home. I'll steal your heart...and then your socks!
