Don't forget to sign up for Strut Your Mutt
Each year, we join Best Friends Animal Society for our biggest fundraiser of the year. The Strut Your Mutt walk takes place on October 22nd and our goal is to raise $40,000 in order to allow us to stay at our current Encino headquarters which has been a great place to house our newest rescues and rehabilitate some of our long-term residents. If you believe in the great work we do and wish to join our team, please click here to register to walk (you don't even have to physically walk but we hope that you do). Ask your friends to sponsor you or join our team. It's a great event that's not too strenuous yet wonderfully rewarding while spending an afternoon with dogs, music, food trucks, and other rescue groups for a great cause. WE CAN'T DO IT WITHOUT YOU! PLEASE JOIN OUR TEAM!!!

KNUCKLES is stuck in boarding!
Terrier / Wire Haired Dachshund mix, 10 lbs, 3 years old. Knuckles is really sweet and just wants to be held. He is not at all aggressive, just a little jumpy. Once you spend time with him and hold him he calms down quickly and is a total sweet heart. He's not crazy about other dogs and may growl at some people when scared. He initially had separation anxiety and would bark and howl when left alone but he is getting better with that. Basically, he's a lap dog who wants to cuddle. He is mostly housetrained.

MOLLY is stuck in boarding!
Terrier/Dachshund Mix, 8 months old, 17 lbs. Molly was surrendered to the shelter because her family had no time for her. She is friendly, and good with other dogs. She is super sweet and shy at first although she warms up after a while. She is a little skittish but we expect her to settle down. She loves carrots! She does well with other dogs but does not seem to be too interested with them. She bonds well with her person and does tend to resource guard them a little, especially from other dogs who might be competing for affection. She may growl at them so we need to teach her to share people.

BRANDY is stuck in boarding!
Terrier mix, 25 lbs, 3.5 years old. Brandy was adopted by someone from the shelter 2 years ago, but she was not well cared for and was dumped recently with terrible hairloss and severe allergies. She has improved greatly and is ready for a foster home. This little girl has lots of energy and loves to play. She is a real character and can be grumpy if you ask her to do something she doesn’t want to do and she can get a little nippy. For that reason, we do not recommend her for a home with young kids.

TOBY is stuck in boarding!
Wheaten terrier mix, 4 years old, 38 lbs. Toby has a happy, easy going personality. He is curious, smart as a whip, and is a high-energy guy who needs a lot of daily exercise and a patient, experienced hand. We recommend a secure home and a secure outdoor area, as he can be a little bit of an escape artist if he's left alone in a yard all day. He is crate trained and housetrained and knows basic commands. Toby would be happier as an only dog in a home with no cats and no kids under the age of 13.

IMAN is stuck in boarding!
Ibizan Hound / Retriever mix, 10 months old, 35 lbs. Iman came to us all the way from Myanmar. She gets along well with other dogs and is very friendly and outgoing with everyone, including kids and cats. She is used to living in a pack of other dogs and puppies and can be dominant but not overly so. She is housetrained. Right now, Iman will bark or cry when left alone. We can support and help in resolving this issue. She needs someone who is committed to helping her settle down and lose her separation anxiety. She is a smart, engaging girl and we know she will learn fast.

HONEY needs a Foster!
Golden Retriever / White German Shepherd mix, 48 lbs, 11 months old. This beautiful girl came to us from Iran on July 2. Honey has a beautiful, gentle, mellow personality. She gets along with other dogs provided you start out following our dog-integration rules. Once the rules are established Honey can love the company of other dogs and be quite playful! She is also suffering separation anxiety at the moment which is unusual for her. She may be suffering PTSD from her travels. She can be shy when initially approached by strangers but she warms up quickly. Honey needs a patient, loving hand who can help her recapture her formerly sunny nature and get her confidence back.
