Meet Radley! He's a Rottie mix, on the smaller side of only 55 lbs, and listed at 2 years. He's house trained, dog friendly. He was recently saved from San Bernardino Animal Shelter from the euthanasia list due to length of stay. He is currently in home boarding in Riverside Ca but can be transferred anywhere in southern Ca.

Barley is a very special boy looking for his special forever. This handsome Akita/Dutchie mix is about 4 years old, 60 lbs, neutered and UTD on vaccines. He is 100% Akita mentally and seeks to protect his home. He LOVES being outside and playing with toys and his foster dog sisigblingslings (which he will only take out one at a time) and can be stubborn when it is time for him to come back inside. Barley MUST have a secure yard, as he is an escape opportunist who turns into Forest Gump once he finds a week point. This boy loves to run.
Barley is unpredictable with strangers and will need training or crating when someone comes over to the house. He does well with submissive female dogs, but NO cats or small creatures for this guy. Barley is deeply soulful and like to connect with one person, and that person is his focus. He loves being with his person, but does ok when crated.
Barley is fostered in Sacramento, transport can be arranged! Apply today!

Meet Ginger! She is such a sweet heart! She was a bit shy when we first brought her out of San Bernardino Animal Shelter, scared she was, however she has warmed up to her private boarding dad.

We are sure she will be a loyal companion! She's approx 1 year and 75lbs. We think she is a Shepherd mix Boxer. Currently in home boarding in Riverside Ca. She can be transported any where in Southern Ca.

Meet Joey! Joey is a super dog! One of our best dogs in our rescue! Reason? Because he's gentle with the fosters 3 year old young boy, gentle with other dogs big or small. He's a chill dog!

🐾 Meet Roady 55 lbs American Staffordshire Terrier🐾
Roady’s story began with heartbreak. He and another dog, Riggs, were surrendered to a high-kill shelter after their female truck driver owner tragically passed away from a heart attack in December. That’s how the boys got their names — Riggs and Roady.
Thankfully, Riggs was rescued and has since found his forever home. But poor Roady was left behind at the shelter for months, waiting and wondering why no one came for him. As time passed, he was eventually placed on the euthanasia list simply due to the length of time he had been there. We could not let that happen, so we stepped in and rescued him too.
Now Roady is safe — but he still needs a foster or forever home where he can finally feel loved again.
Roady is:
✨ Very sweet and submissive
✨ Affectionate and loving
✨ Walks well on a leash
✨ Vaccinated and microchipped
✨ In need of neutering
✨ A fun-loving couch potato who just wants to be near his people
Despite everything he’s been through, Roady has remained gentle, trusting, and full of love. He deserves a soft place to land and a family who will never leave him behind again.
If you can help foster and/or adopt Roady, please reach out. He is ready for his second chance at a beautiful life. 🐶❤️
