Saving Carson Shelter Dogs

Saving Carson Shelter Dogs ❤️🐶WELCOME! OUR GOAL IS SIMPLE:
We help promote Carson Shelter dogs by filming videos of the CarsonFosters.com is a great resource.

🔹WHAT WE'RE NOT INVOLVED WITH:
● We are not associated with the shelter in any way.
● We don't pull dogs.
● We don't transport dogs
● We're not involved in the adoption of animals (Shelter phone #: ☎️ 310-523-9566)
● We're not involved in coordinating rescues nor do we get involved in the logistics.
● We are not involved with fostering. In a nutshell we're a tiny set of volunteers that do this on

our own time with our own money with ONLY the dogs best interests in our hearts at all times. We've learned SO much since 2013 when we started posting photos/videos resulting in 1000's of dogs finding solid forever homes. But we continue to try to improve to help more dogs. If you found your dog from one of our videos please drop us a note to let us know! We're also on 🔸INSTAGRAM🔸YOUTUBE🔸TWITTER!

➡️ IF YOU WANT TO BE A ⭐️FOSTER⭐️:
If you live within 2 hours of LA & can foster a pet, please post your name & city you live in on the thread of the pet you are willing to help. Pets with foster offers have a much better chance of being rescued and rescue groups are often monitoring the messages. For more info from independent volunteers trying to help fosters connect with rescue groups:

________________________________

🆘 EUTHANASIA 🆘 :
🔹Remember, we are NOT the shelter: Technically, dogs become 'at risk' for euthanasia at the end of the day on their 'Available Date' if they are sick, have behavioral issues or the shelter is at capacity & they don't have an adopter or rescue group commitment. Most often we are given the courtesy of 24-72 hours notice by the shelter to get the word out if they are considering euthanasia but that isn't always the case.
________________________________

🔹 🌐🌎OUT-OF-STATE ADOPTION INTERESTS:🌐🌎
We receive requests from all over the world from people wanting to adopt the dogs in our videos. Obviously we want all the dogs at Carson out ASAP (if it's going to a legitimate adopter/rescue group) but if you're out-of-state just know that your local animal shelter will have lots of dogs just like the ones in our videos and they probably have less promotion 😢. So please check your local shelter first. There's no shortage of dogs in need around the world. If your heart is set on a pup in a video we suggest you first contact a local rescue group in your area to assist you. Then post in that dogs comments section who you are, the name of your rescue group, your location, and specifically what assistance you need (i.e. pulling, vetting and boarding, transport or if you will handle the transport, etc). Many rescue groups & networkers are on our threads and may be able to assist in connecting you with a Carson Shelter affiliated rescue group who is in the position to help. Please note, typically the funds necessary to save a dog from the shelter (boarding, transport to boarding, vetting, etc.) are the responsibility of the out of state rescue, but you would work that out directly with local rescue that assists you.

Since day 1 we've had only the dogs best interests at heart and we will not hesitate to block anybody we feel is hurting a dogs chances of finding their forever home.

________________________________

🔹BEWARE OF CON ARTISTS
There are con artists in every walk of life. Unfortunately that includes animal rescue 😢. PLEASE DO YOUR DUE DILIGENCE and research anybody you're considering giving money to. Most rescue groups are fantastic so please don't be discouraged from donating/pledging but there are bad actors that take advantage of these defenseless creatures to profit from the heightened emotions surrounding the situation. Their behavior destroys trust, costing legitamate Rescue Groups precious donations and thus causing more dogs to die. Please be careful.

A5734820 ✰ OLIVER -10/25/25-

Oliver is five years old. He lived his life in a mobile Home park with his brother a small French bulldog. The Frenchie got to spend the nights in the home while Oliver was left tied up outside alone💔 They didn’t have a yard so during the day they spent their time in an enclosure and also tethered in the driveway. One day the utility man came to the house and Oliver and his buddy got loose and there was some type of bite incident of this utility person. The owner surrendered him to the shelter. The French bulldog is still with the owner. He’s going to need help quickly once his assessment is done. He is a super sweet dog and he lived a life that no husky should live. He had no freedom to run. He may need a FOSTER and RESCUE to save him.

My name is OLIVER and I'm an approximately 5 yr old male Siber. Husky. I am not yet neutered. I have been at the Carson Animal Care Center since 10/24. I will be available on 11/4. You can visit me at my temporary home at C138.

✳️PAYO ✳️A5736378

🐶🐶Came in together with

Payo and his brother Manchas were surrendered to the Shelter. He is about two years old and you could see he’s really missing his brother and his family. He needs help quickly. He’s about 45 pounds.
11/5/25 - A5736378(altered) Payo:
Payo had a tense timid demeanor and required a slow approach to be removed from the kennel. Payo was taken to the catch pen and was collared and leashed using a slow approach for Payo’s comfort. He greeted the dogs at the barrier with a neutral demeanor and was allowed into the play yard. Payo displayed a tense body, closed mouth, ears back, low tail, and soft eyes. Payo allowed the dogs to sniff him but appeared uncomfortable. Payo moved on and explored the yard sniffing and marking various locations. Payo appeared wary of the other dogs and mainly kept to himself. Payo found another calm soft dog in the yard and they explored together. Payo spent the remainder of the play session walking and exploring with the other dog. When near the handlers Payo appeared interested in interacting but moved away when the handlers coaxed him over. Payo maintained a slightly tense timid demeanor preferring to be amongst calm dogs or keeping to himself. Payo was able to co-exist in the play yard and displayed no play style at this time. Payo could benefit from confidence building and further socialization. See additional assessment for placement recommendations.

A5736378(altered) Payo:
Payo was in the play yard prior to the assessment and was given time to decompress. Payo displayed a slightly tense body, closed mouth, ears back, low tail, and soft eyes. Payo wouldn’t approach when called and the handler used the leash to reel him in closer. Payo allowed the handler to pet his head, but he appeared tense and uncomfortable. The handler used a slow approach and was able to examine Payo’s ears, mouth, abdomen, back, and tail. When examining Payo’s lower extremities, he pulled his legs away and whipped around giving a stern gaze. He repeated the same movement when the handler attempted to palpate his paws again but gave a corrective bark/growl at the handler. Payo was allowed to decompress before returning to his kennel. Payo is ok for public adults only required (+KHOA handling sensitivity lower extremities) low energy level calm dogs recommended.

🔥Came in together with Pearl 🐶🐶

They were found near one 0100 S. Felton Avenue

He was easily leashed and exited the kennel on his own. Adonnis walked ahead of the runner with a slight pull on the leash, bypassing the other kennels. Inside the catch pen, he grunted at the dogs that approached at the barrier. He was collared and leashed without issue. Once inside the yard, Adonnis exchanged greetings with the dogs, exhibiting a tense body posture. His interactions became assertive, requiring the handlers to steer him away at times to avoid escalation. Eventually, he moved on to explore the environment, though he continued to approach other dogs in a confrontational manner along the way. Due to his assertive behavior, Adonnis was moved to the side yard to decompress before being returned to his kennel. Adonnis was unable to integrate appropriately with the dogs in the yard; therefore, a home with no other dogs is the most ideal setting. Ok for public adoption, no other dogs recommended, low energy level.
