It's gonna get cold soon! We need to start stocking up on blankets now! We're in need of blankets, comforters, and towels 365 days a year. But when the temperatures drop, the need is even greater. We nearly ran out of blankets earlier in the year! We can't let that happen as 2024 comes to a close. Big blankets, small blankets, new, or gently used. If you've got something that will help a pet stay comfortable and warm, one of our shelter animals will definitely use it!

💖💖 ADOPTABLE DOGS URGENT💖💖

We have 16 dogs 🐶 currently available for adoption and they desperately need a loving homes 🏡 ♥️ Many of these dogs had been living at our new 20 acre property we recently bought in December 2023. Looking for homes for these dogs is the reason we ❌can’t ❌take any other dogs on right now. As you’ll read, these dogs are a PRIORITY. Some will have links 🔗 that you can click on for more information! We have pitbulls, shepherds, mastiffs, cattle dogs and more!

Here’s a list of the dogs that we need to find homes for:

Brownie - came from KCAS a few years ago, 5 years old now, was a little stand off-ish but not anymore! He’s a love bug now and loves attention and walks, highly adoptable! Would be a great family guardian!

Oscar - came from KCAS 4 years ago, he’s 6 years old now, shepherd mix with cut ears (so dumb whoever did that). He’s a great dog and loves to hunt mice! Highly adoptable, super fun to play with, would be great with a young and active family.

Pretzel - was born out there, adopted, returned 4 years ago and is now 9 years old. She wouldn’t let anyone touch her until we came along 🤗 Now she goes on walks, lives like a princess indoors, is super sweet and loves to curl up by your feet, and even gets playful when she’s outside!

Dylan - https://www.facebook.com/100081986666636/posts/468943499181868/?mibextid=cr9u03

Hi, I'm Autumn and I'm a lovely, curious young 1 year old cat looking for a fresh start! I like wand toys and gentle pets and will often greet you with figure eights around your ankles. I'd love the opportunity to get to know you and let's face it, steal your heart! I'm available for adoption and ready to head home so come visit me at Woods in Atascadero and I'll see you soon! Oh! And my adoption fee is half off through the 27th!

Poncho has had it. I feel like he’s depressed now. He hates crates, he hates laundry rooms. He just wants to be with people so badly. With so many dogs I’m caring for, this isn’t the environment he’s going to thrive in.

He’s such a big and recognizable dog, I wonder if his owner or breeder is out there. Do they see these posts? Did his owner dump
him? How did he end up in the Kern County shelter? Someone intentionally brought him into this world and they don’t care that he is homeless. They don’t care that he was going to be killed in the shelter.

Watching this dog become depressed is the hardest thing for me. Out of frustration, he’s destroyed the walls and doors in the laundry room. He cries and whines when he’s in there. He absolutely hates being confined. He’s even in a huge kennel, Great Dane sized, super reinforced. He still manages to hurt himself sometimes. This is unacceptable.

He’s only happy when he’s out roaming the house and with his people. This boy is incredibly loyal, loving and he’ll do anything with his person. Car rides, walks, lounging on the couch, a little play, you name it. He’s a gentle giant.

As for other pets, a calm female would likely work but best to be an only dog. No males or cats. Not that he’s necessarily aggressive toward them but if a fight breaks out, he’s a very big boy and that would not be easy to stop. He very rarely reacts to other dogs while out on walks. He looks but doesn’t try to engage if the other dog is call also.

Please, please help us find him a loving home! He’s gaining weight, getting depressed, and it’s just not right. We want the best for all of these dogs. Please share him on your NextDoor apps, other social media platforms, with your coworkers, family and friends. PONCHO NEEDS A PERSON/FAMILY OF HIS OWN TO LOVE. He would be great with kids too. He is a precious soul and he deserves the very best.
