🚨ONI UPDATE🚨 We need your help!!!

Oni is not out of the woods yet. She is currently stable and is in an oxygen chamber receiving fluids. She’s not yet eating which is normal for this level of pneumonia.

We desperately need your help. She needs a foster to go to after she’s released, and we need funds to pay for her care. Currently the bill through tomorrow morning at 9am is estimated to be $7,018.03 - $7,518.03. That is only through tomorrow morning, and she is likely to stay more days.

If you can’t foster but can donate to her care, our Venmo is or visit our instagram or website (laloveandleashes.com) for more ways to donate.

We are so grateful for anything you can contribute 🙏 Oni and we thank you!!! 🙏 ❤️

🚨FOSTER AND FUNDS URGENTLY NEEDED🚨

Oni is currently at the ER, and we need a foster for when she is released so that she doesn’t have to go back to the shelter in this condition. She is currently resting at the ER and has oxygen and fluids as well awaiting further testing diagnostics.

Sweet Oni needs a home to successfully recover. She needs a foster with no other pets because of her illness. Please let us know if you can foster! We hope she can be released tomorrow.

If you can’t foster but can donate to her care, our Venmo is or visit our instagram or website (laloveandleashes.com) for more ways to donate. We are so grateful for anything you can contribute 🙏

🚨URGENT NEED FOR MEDICAL FUNDS🚨

For $5 Friday, can you find it in your heart to donate to Oni?

Our sweet girl Oni had to stay back at the shelter because of a URI and her condition is unfortunately getting worse. It turned into pneumonia, and she received fluids this morning. Today she is completely lethargic, but she still has the most precious heart and will wag her tail for you. She needs to get to the vet asap. An amazing volunteer will take her tomorrow, but we need to raise funds to cover it. Any amount is so helpful!

Our Venmo is or visit our instagram or website (laloveandleashes.com) for more ways to donate.

Thank you in advance for anything you are able to contribute to our baby!

❤️Bounce is back❤️
We are more than thrilled, our actually 6 month old staffie mix is back with all the kisses and jumping around🍀 He is housebroken and has all the potential of a good leash walker! He just loves people so much that he wants to greet everyone. He also wants to play all day but as Bounce is still a baby, he needs some good long naps too in between🩷 He knows sit, paw and down, but down turns mostly into belly rubs☺️

If you are interested in BOUNCE or any of our other furry friends, please email us at [email protected] !

Also here today:

🤗ADOPTION ALERT🤗
OSO found the sweetest family!! A grandfather with all the time, love and energy to give, he fell in love with him yesterday and we can see why! Likewise Oso ran to him the second time of the adoption process and sat next to him to make sure everything was filled in! Tonight his new forever owner will prepare him all the homemade dog meals and introduce this little one to his granddaughter and dog sitter neighbor and her senior dogs! 🐨❤️ xoxo

Our next new baby in town is our 1 year old poodle mix, Skipper! 🥰🎉🐶 This 14 pound pup came in as a stray without a microchip. So far, he has been walked with one other tiny dog and he was great - neutral at first, but the interactions were kept minimal, since they were both new. All signs pointed to them being friendly! Skipper was super scared around the barking when he was being carried through the kennels, but that’s not abnormal! We’re hopeful to see in a calmer environment he’ll be more social and open up!

If you are interested in adopting Skipper or any other of our furry friends, please email us at - [email protected] 🥰💗

IT’S TIME TO INTRODUCE OUR NEWBIES! This handsome 5 year old schnauzer mix is named Oso! He was found as a stray, so we don’t know much about his background. As far as who he is though? He’s our sweet and social boy! He is not reactive to dogs, loves his walks and gets so energetic, and seeks love from his human friends. He does have some separation anxiety, but we’re very hopeful once he’s in a home where he feels safe and on a routine, it will improve. 💗

If you are interested in Oso or any of our other furry friends, please email us at [email protected]

✨Healthy Spot-Light!✨

We want to send another HUGE thank you to everyone who donated to Lani’s surgery! Look at her before and after photos — she even got a pup cup in celebration. In addition to private donations, we also received funding from Healthy Spot’s “round up” program, which helped complete our fundraising goal for sweet Lani.

Did you know that you have the option to “round up” your total bill at Healthy Spot, which means those round up cents go directly to nonprofits?! L.A. Love & Leashes had the benefit of being the December partner for this program. Donations like these seem so minimal on an individual basis, but during our partnership with Healthy Spot beginning 13 years ago, they’ve helped us pay for so many medical expenses, surgeries, treats, food, etc. for animals both in and outside of the Love & Leashes program.

As you may know, our storefront is next-door to a Healthy Spot at Westfield Century City, and they will even do free nail trims and grooms for us, especially for severely matted or flea infested pups 💛

Thank you to our friends ! We are so grateful!

🎉ADOPTION ALERT🎉 It’s our sweet angel, Nora! If anyone had the pleasure in meeting Nora, then you can imagine how much her mom melted over her ❤️ Nora, true to being the shy girl she is, was hesitant at first and didn’t want to leave our staffs side. Her new mommy though was very patient and said “don’t worry, you have no idea the amazing life you’re gonna have” 🥰Nora is going into a nice quiet home with a backyard to run around in and will surely come out of her shell.

🎉ADOPTION ALERT #1🎉 It’s our Odie baby! And he is going to such an amazing home and to a new mommy who loves him so much! Odie’s new mom spent well over 2 hours with us to not only ask all the necessary questions about Odie and everything a new fur baby requires, but to really make sure that Odie felt just as comfortable and bonded with her 💕 After her appointment, she took some time to think about it and started setting up her apartment for his arrival! So cute! When she came back to pick him up, he was the happiest little guy ☺️ We are so happy that Odie didn’t have to spend much time in the shelter like so many do. He is such a funny and energetic pup and we’re so thrilled he’s found his furever family!

Congratulations, Odie! ❤️
