Hello, my name is Cinderella. I was adopted in 2019 from an animal shelter by my loving family. I am a very fun and sweet pup. I love kids and people. I love to play and to cuddle, go on walks and play fetch. I get along with other dogs but it might take me a day. I need a family that has some time to walk and spend time with me.

Story
Meet Lil Ricky: The Heartwarming Survivor Introducing Lil Ricky, a delightful 4-year-old Shih Tzu-Terrier mix who embodies the spirit of resilience and joy! Found as a stray in the bustling streets of Los Angeles, Ricky's journey began at a high-kill animal shelter where he was left wondering why his previous owner never came to claim him. With his playful demeanor and loving personality, it was hard to understand how this sweet boy had been overlooked. As the shelter faced overcrowding and Ricky’s time was running out, an animal rescue initially stepped up to save him but then sadly never showed. Faced with the grim prospect of euthanasia, Ricky's fate took a turn when our nonprofit, Concerned Citizens Animal Rescue heard about his situation and rushed to his rescue. Despite the shelter's estimation of Ricky being 8 years old, our dedicated veterinarians assessed his youthful energy and sparkling spirit, concluding that he is likely around 4 years old, based on his teeth and impressive stamina. This little polka-dotted bundle of joy is anything but a senior! He is up to date on vax. Microchipped and Neutered! Ricky is ready to fill a loving home with laughter and joy this holiday season. If you’re interested in making this charming pup a part of your family, please reach out to us at info@concernedcitizensanimalrescue.org for an adoption application. Let’s give Lil Ricky the happiest holiday ever and the forever home he truly deserves!

Tater

Shih Tzu Schnoodle

Male, 1 yr 1 mo
Van Nuys, CA
Size
(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less
Details
Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Meet Tater!  He was found wandering in the high desert in CA, and despite efforts to locate his original owners, no one came forward to claim him. He is a poodle/Schnauzer mix estimated to be around 1-2 years old, is now ready to find his forever family! Tater is crate trained, potty trained, and does well on a leash. He has been in foster home with kids and dogs, but they’re not a requirement for his new home—he’s happy to go with the flow. At night, Tater sleeps quietly in his crate and waits patiently in the morning. Once he establishes trust, Tater is calm and affectionate, really bonding with his favorite people and is easy-going. He can be a bit wary of new people and protective of his favorite spots like the couch or bed, sometimes getting defensive if an unfamiliar person gets too close. While he can hang with other dogs at a distance, he tends to favor his favorite person. Tater would do best in a laid-back home with one or two people who know the ropes, where he can soak up plenty of attention, and take it easy with introductions to new people or pets. Whoever adopts Tater will be incredibly lucky—he’s sure to bring immense happiness to his new family. Adoption fee ($550) includes wellness exam, fecal test, DHPP (3 rounds), Bordetella, neuter and microchipping! If you see me online I am still available for adoption! If you are interested in adopting me, please fill out an application here: www.hitlivingfoundation.org/adoption-application, and email a video walkthrough of your home and yard to adoptions@hitlivingfoundation.org. Your application will not be counted as valid without your video. You will hear back from us within a few days.

Story
I am Henry and I would love to meet you. I’m a nine-year-old terrier mix but no one believes I am a day over five. I have the energy and spirit of a pup. I love to play but I’m also happy just relaxing in my bed. I was rescued from the East Valley shelter where I was very frightened but I am thriving now that I am out. I can still be a shy guy with new people, but it doesn’t take too long for me to warm up and make friends (I promise I am worth the wait). I am being fostered with a senior spaniel and two cats and we all get along so well. I am house trained, too! I love walks and when my belly is rubbed. I am obsessed with my toys; I even bring them with me on all my outings and adventures. I'm so ready for my next adventure - Wanna meet me?? https://shyclubrescue.com/adoption-application/

Valyn is a really special guy. Just Happy go Lucky kind of attitude. He was rescued from a very high kill shelter in Kern County. Valyn is such an ez boy to be with.

Shih Tzu

Female, Adult

Details
House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Meet Leigha, a 8-year-old Shih Tzu who was rescued after being abandoned at a middle school. This little girl is the epitome of sweetness, with a heart full of love. Leigha loves to follow her favorite person around the house, always wanting to be close by. She thrives in the company of others, so she'd do best in a home with another dog (she's a big fan of her furry friends!) and with people who are home most of the day. Leigha can get a bit anxious if left alone, but does great if left with another friendly dog.She’s also a fantastic travel companion, enjoying car rides and outings. At night, she loves to curl up in bed with her family or is ok in bed with another dog. She also is ok being crated with another friendly dog (right now she is besties with a golden)! When it comes to walks, Leigha enjoys her time outside. We recommend her for a home with older kids (ages 4 and up) and someone who is ok with continuing her skin medication (helps with her allergies). We can not believe Leigha isn't adopted yet as she is sure to bring endless love and happiness to her new family! ##2054582##
