Story
Hi, I'm Cypress! I'm your go-to guy for fun, energy, and companionship. I'm friendly, goofy, and always ready for an adventure. I'm also pretty smart - I learn commands in no time. I need to be the only pet in the house, but I've got plenty of love and energy to go around! I can get pretty rowdy while playing, so either an adult only home or a family with older children would be the best match for me. If you're looking for a fun-loving, quick-learning, forever friend, I'm your dog. Adopt Cypress, and let the adventures begin! I need a little guidance to help manage my behavior, so a behavior consult is required for my adoption. My adoption fee is $200 and includes the following: -2 Free private training lessons in-home or at the shelter -Spay/neuter surgery -All current vaccinations -Microchip -FREE wellness exam through VCA Animal Hospitals -$25 gift voucher from our friends at Choice Pet Market For more information about me or to schedule a meet and greet appointment, please complete an adoption questionnaire.

Story
**MERRY MALIBU** Age approx 7-8mos Tucson AZ. Meet Merry and Bright Malibu! Being a small foster based rescue, we cannot always bring under our roofs, a dog in need....but when a good Samaritan who finds and is willing to foster a found animal....we can help with marketing, healthcare resources, screening and finding a new fur-ever for that animal in need! This is one of those cases....Malibu was found by a community member in June off a reservation in Tucson. Malibu was about 6-8 weeks old and was all alone. She has been to the vet and is deemed healthy. She is not yet spayed, or microchipped (that is a work in progress). Malibu is believed to be about 7-8mos old now and breed guesses are Lab/Pit mix. Malibu is big and small dog friendly, is very sweet and loving, has lots of energy (she is a puppy), food motivated, does great on a leash, is working hard on her potty training, loves her toys and her favorite game is tug-of-war! As with most dogs who have had to fend for themselves and find food and water....she eats very fast and cannot be free fed. She will just need some time and patience to allow her to feel safe and that there will always be food for her at a designated time during the day. Malibu is a gorgeous girl who would make a great hiking/traveling buddy. She will need a family that will give her time to settle, who will set up the proper structure and training guidance for her....but most of all just love her and make her feel safe. Mailbu is in Tucson and the foster is willing to bring her where she needs to for meets etc.....Please contact the foster Cindy at 619-201-5712, clayman1208@gmail.com for more detailed information and to set up a meet.

Our sweet Julia 🥹🥹 Our beautiful girl Julia was returned to us after a year— the resident pup in the home no longer got along with her. 😖😖 She’s back with us in boarding, but this girl deserves a furever home.🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 🐾 Julia is the living definition of loyalty. 🐾 A velcro dog through and through, she loves to be near her people all the time. 😍 🐾Very playful and happy with the most heart warming smile, she's the kind of dog you can't help but to smile back at whenever she looks at you. 😌 🐾 A great cuddling partner who gives the most gentle kisses and sniffs, she is a very talented lap dog for her size. 🤗 🐾With her goofiness and affection, she's impossible not to fall in love with. 💖 🐾Her likes: play time, cuddles, snacks of all types, hikes, and when her people come home! 🐾Her dislikes: her people not being in the same room as her and too few snacks. 🦴 🐾She is playful with other pups and did well with another female pitbull for almost a year, however, unfortunately they began to clash after some time, though she didn't seem to ever initiate the conflict. 😓 🐾She has not been around many children but on the few occasions she was, there were no issues and she was very gentle and kind. 🧒 🐾A truly loving, protective, sweetheart, Julia is an angel! 😇
