Rescued from a high kill shelter in LA, just turned two. Now living it up in the Pacific Northwest

happily snoring on my lap now 😊

As you can see, they are now as happy as 2 pigs in mud! Even though I gave them everything.

I’ll always be living the life of the spare human ❤️‍🩹

Stella doesn't find Kindergarten Cop very interesting I guess.

This little girl is Peanut. She’s approximately 1.9 years old and the sweetest thing! She was a little timid at first, but it didn’t take her long to relax and eat up all the attention she got. She was not impressed with my treats, but she loved hot dog and chicken!

We explored the river, had a pup cup, a very big and tiring walk around town that required a long nap after and we went to a bbq where she got to enjoy a baby giving her attention.

Peanut is such a sweetie! I can’t imagine she will last long in the shelter. She’s available for adoption at Front Street Animal Shelter in Sacramento. 🐾

Had an amazing experience with my daughter and this good girl named Lila at our local park. My baby loves dogs and I'm trying to teach her proper pitty edicate. Shes learning to ask the owners if she can pet them first and Lila was such a sweet girl. She gave so many kisses and my baby loved it. Just wanted to share this positive interaction

I got him from a friend who ran a doggy daycare and had Titus abandoned there, he was going to go to a shelter but I felt like I couldnt let that happen. she said he was around 2 when she gave him to me and he immediately got along great with my 12 year old pekenise mix.

Original owner cropped his ears, which makes his forever mama (me) sad. But whether it's natural ears, cropped ears, or rabbit ears for his Easter portrait, Porter is a total stud-muffin, yes?

There are thirty-eight dogs on the list in four groups.

Individual photos of the dogs are to be found with the list for  their group.

Adopting from the longest-stay list will keep a dog off death row!
