Story
Blue the silver unicorn is an incredibly sweet and lovable 2-year-old with an unfortunate start in life. Blue came to us in October 2022, severely neglected and emaciated. He is now up-to-date on his vaccinations, neutered, and microchipped, and ready to find his forever home or foster. Blue is a trainable and intelligent pup who loves to be rewarded with treats, which makes him a great candidate for leash and basic training. Blue is a loving companion who thrives and enjoys having your undivided attention. Blue is more of a couch potato than an athlete, although he does love going for walks with his favorite humans. In the home, he has a chill personality and loves listening to audio books and soft music, especially if they`re playing while he lounges on his blankets misted with lavender scent.This handsome boy has a soft coat of fur and is always happy to wear a bandana, especially if it means getting a treat dipped in some peanut butter. Blue is house and crate trained, takes treats nicely from your hand, and loves baths. Blue is a playful boy and loves to run around in the backyard. Loves grass.We know Blue will bring so much joy to the right family, and we are actively seeking an emergency foster for him until his forever home can be found. We would love to see Blue happy and showered with love and kindness, and we hope you`ll consider opening your heart to this sweet silver unicorn

Story
HI - I'M SANDY! I'm a 6-year-old sweet & chubby snuggler girl who needs a home! I'm currently in a foster home in Santa Barbara, though I may need a new foster home soon as the cat doesn't like me much. I've been waiting for over a year for someone to choose me. I love to cuddle, hang out and watch TV, and go for walks, hikes, and other adventures. I do well with some dogs (I used to live in a home with a female dog), but prefer people to other dogs so I can get all of the attention. If you're looking for a snuggler, someone to share your bed and hug, I'm it! I truly am a lap dog, and I crave human attention and affection. I'm also super happy, and am just waiting for my person or people to come along. I weigh about 56 lbs. and am a little chubby, so need to go on a diet. Can you foster or adopt me?

Story
HI - I'M CORDELIA! I'm a happy and compact 9-year-old bluenose pittie-mix girl with a wonderful smile! I weigh about 45 lbs, and am a sweet and independent girl. I don't act like I'm 9 as I love to play fetch and retrieve the ball - I'm very active! I have been waiting for a couple years for the right home! If you adopt me, I'll be your shadow and follow you wherever you go. I would do best in a home with a single person who can be my devoted companion, or an active couple who loves to walk, hike, and go on outings. My favorite thing to do is play ball! I am obsessed with playing fetch so would do best in a home with a yard - if at all possible, though it's not a necessity if you can take me someplace to play! I prefer to be the only dog but that doesn't mean I should be overlooked, because I am such a good girl. I'm not great with cats, however! Much like cats, I love attention and affection, but I love it on my own terms, once I know and trust you. I'm in good health overall but have a few lumps that don't bother me, so am anxious to get into a home soon, where I can be loved and doted on. Can you foster or adopt me?

Story
I'M GRAYSON, and I'm a great dog! I'm an unique looking Pittie but am handsome in my own right. I have a bit longer nose and some chubby cheeks and my eyes can sometimes look sad. I'm also quite small for a male Pit, about 45-50 lbs. I'm about 4-5 years old now and keep getting overlooked. I love people and have tested well with some other dogs. About a year ago I was diagnosed with a double hip dysplasia, and I just need to be on meds (or supplements) going forward. (Right now I'm over-the-counter glucosamine and am doing great!) I can be a bit touchy on my back hips now and then, so best to just avoid rubbing me there, especially if I'm sleeping. I am starved for human affection, and I love to go on car rides, walks and other outings. I would do best in a quiet home with a single person or couple. Can you foster or adopt me? Please email for an application.

Story
HI - I'M GABE! I'm a handsome 5-year-old blue-and-white Pit Bull Terrier in need of a home! I'm truly adorable, with my short legs and heart-shaped nose. I love people and love going on road trips, walks, and hikes. I also love the car and would make a great co-pilot. I could play ball all day long so be prepared! I'm not the greatest fan of most dogs, so would do best as the king of my castle with people who can dote on me. And I do fine with some cats but not others, so will probably do best in a home without any cats, too. I weigh about 60 lbs., and am currently in need of a foster or forever home. Please email for an application.

WOOF - I'm sweet and happy Dorothy! I'm a 4-year-old female brown brindle & white Pit Bull Terrier in need of a foster or forever home! I've been waiting awhile -- almost two years -- and keep getting overlooked, despite my happy disposition. I'm an active, fun-loving dog and would do best in a home where I can get plenty of play time and exercise. I'm obsessed with the ball and if you like to play fetch, I'm your girl! I also love the water. I did well on my dog test with a calm male pittie, though I could use a few manners and would thrive as the only dog in a home as well. I also make a great snuggler! I weigh 69 lbs. Can you foster or adopt me? Please email for an application.
