The adorable Tippy Shimmerthorn is ready to bring some silliness and love into your home. Learn more about him 👇⁠⁠⁠⁠

How is it possible Tippy Shimmerthorn hasn’t been snapped up yet.⁠
Look at his cuteness!⁠

Rescued from a high kill shelter, Tippy is a very happy young pug. He loves to dance around the house with his little stuffie toys and wrestle with his foster brothers. When he isn’t playing he is very affectionate and loves to sleep on your lap. He gets very excited for treats, meals, and walks. He is good in the car and falls right to sleep. At night he likes to sleep in the human bed with his favorite people. He is also crate trained.⁠

Tippy is very well mannered and gets along with all people and other dogs. He walks well on the leash. He has had one eye removed due to an injury and does like to follow another dog’s lead on walks. He is mostly house trained but still can have accidents if you don’t stick to a schedule. He wears belly bands when inside to prevent accidents.⁠

The ideal home for Tippy can have both adults and dog savvy children. Tippy can live with other dogs as long as they don’t get jealous...he loves to be the center of attention and get lots of cuddles. Tippy is crate trained so he can be left home if his person needs to work outside of the house. He will need a midday potty break. Tippy would be a great dog to bring with you to the office because he is very sweet and silly. Tippy is shy in public and a bit of an introvert. He saves his sassy side for when he is at home.⁠

Tippy’s favorite things are food/treats, belly rubs, snuggles, tossing his toys, and zoomie races with his foster brothers. He loves to snack on snow peas and blueberries. He would make a wonderful addition to a pug-loving home.⁠

This smart girl is looking for a home that knows how to care for intelligent and active pups. Can you help Disco?

Meet Disco (Violet)! 🐾💜

She is one of the adorable Dalmatian pups we introduced this weekend. Her and her siblings are 7 weeks old and will be ready for furever homes April 6th!

This absolutely stunning girl is on the lower-energy side of her siblings and has the sweetest demeanor. She’s currently being fostered with one of her siblings, a Bernedoodle, and two kiddos. She is the perfect mix of playful, gentle, and loving.

Disco is all about calm companionship. She adores her people, gets along wonderfully with other dogs, and has a naturally sweet and gentle energy. Whether she’s snuggling up for some love or quietly observing the world around her, she’s an absolute joy to be around. She’s also doing such a great job sleeping through the night and potty training! She is a smart girly ✨

If you’re interested in adopting Disco, head to hitlivingfoundation.org/adopt to fill out an application. Please note that both Dalmatians and Dobermans are highly intelligent and active breeds, so breed experience and knowledge are preferred.

Ladybird’s been waiting for over 100 days. Let’s spread the word to find her a furever home!

Sometimes a picture says more than we ever could. This is Ladybird. She’s super smart. 🎓

This 3-year-old pup is a shelter favorite. She gets along well with other soft, mellow pups during playgroup sessions at the shelter. Ladybird is a dream in the car or on a leash, she just wants to be by your side.

She knows basic commands like sit, stay, paw, down, and she’s working on roll over.

We’re baffled that she’s been in our care for 104 days! 🤯

Come to the shelter to meet Ladybird today. She’s available for foster placement or adoption. Her adoption fee is waived! ID # A1352170

Can you give Gigi a loving home? 😻

Adopt Gigi!

This two year old girl’s big green eyes will draw you in! She loves to interact with people and enjoys getting pets and attention, especially neck scritches. She’ll get on your lap and you can snuggle together on the couch while you watch a movie. Gigi does like to be the director in charge, however, and as the one to decide when and for how long the pets last she asks that you respect when she’s had enough for now. She may give you a little nip to remind you if you don’t get the hint. No hard feelings, though: Gigi will go have some playtime (such fun!), maybe take a nap in one of her favorite cozy beds, and then she’ll be back for the next round of love.

Gigi isn’t really keen on other cats and must be your one and only kitty love. We haven’t seen her around dogs to know her thoughts on the canine species. We recommend an adult home or one with older cat-savvy kids who understand that Gigi can get a bit overstimulated. As you get to know each other well and learn Gigi’s preferences, this diminishes and you can enjoy plenty of quality time together!

Sweet Gigi is ready to find her soulmate! Will she find that special connection with you? To visit her, pop into our Petco Mira Mesa location. Call the store to clarify our volunteer hours and you can spend a little time with her one on one!

Yeti may be big, but he’s still a puppy at heart. Do you know anyone who can give him a home?

1-year-old big boy Yeti is a dream dog if you’re into large breed mellow pups. Some foster notes below;

“Yeti is a tall, lean ball of sunshine. His philosophy is ’Don’t worry, be happy’ and all he wants to do is hang with you, get pets and cuddles, and play with toys. He lives for giving and getting affection. He is around 1 year old, so he does still have short bursts of jump around puppy energy. He tries to be gentle and has good awareness of his size, but he is tall, with long gangly legs and a long waggy tail, so probably best with older children. He is perfectly fine with being handled all over and is afraid of nothing - he even let me vacuum his fur, which is soft and fluffy. He loves my 20lb dog, but Yeti has no understanding of why anyone might want personal space (he will try to eat out of the same bowl at the same time), so he should only be with very tolerant dogs.”

If you’d like to meet his delightful fellow, start by filling out an application online.

These Heeler mix puppies are looking for their forever homes! Please spread the word.


✈️🤎George and Vega🤎✈️

George and Vega are 13-week-old heeler mixes!

Pup’s Story 📖

These pups are originally from Visalia Shelter and were flown to us by Amelia Air!

Love Letters from Foster 💌

Vega: What Vega lacks in size he makes up for in personality and cuddles. His favorite activities are sunbathing, working from home or the office with the humans, and fetch. Vega has been great about using his p*e pads when he’s not outside exploring the garden. He is getting along so well with his feline roommates and dogs as well! This guy would make a great addition to any home

George: (Brown Puppy)He is The explorer! The most adventurous of the group and has a daring personality.

Both of these babies are doing well with potty training. They have been raised with their momma and siblings up to this point. They are well socialized and thriving!

Estimated Approx Full Grown Size:
Medium

🎾🦴 - Our pups are unique, each with their own personalities and breeds/mixes. This is what makes an Labelle pup special.

🌿🐶🏡 - We cannot guarantee potty training, especially in new environments. Please be patient and keep your adoption/foster coordinator updated with transition progress.

This Ginger cat is ready for his purrfect home. Can you help DannyBoy?

Some say finding a four-leaf clover is lucky—but we’d argue that finding a big, orange, handsome boy like DannyBoy is even better.

This big, orange biscuit-making machine is dedicated to his humans—following them around, hopping into their laps, and ensuring they never experience a moment without cat supervision. He’s a social, playful boy and hasn’t met a toy he doesn’t like.

If you’re ready for a devoted, toy-loving, lap-hogging best friend, DannyBoy is your guy! Email [email protected]

We are hoping Dannyboy finds his forever home soon, or sadly we’ll have to find him a new foster home. Like, comment and share to help make that happen!

Meet Ember – The Sweetest Spark of Joy!

Ember is a 1 year old bundle of love with a striking white coat. Rescued from a high-kill shelter, she may have faced a rough start—including a small scar that tells a story of resilience—but nothing can dim her bright spirit!

This happy-go-lucky girl is a social butterfly who adores everyone she meets. She’s fantastic with dogs of all sizes, making her the perfect playmate and companion. Ember has zero food aggression and happily shares her toys and bones, proving just how gentle and loving she is.

Not only is she crate-trained and loves exploring on the leash, she is also doggie door potty trained. Ember loves the car and going on adventures. And when the day winds down? Ember is the ultimate cuddlebug, happiest when curled up next to you—she’ll even fall asleep in your arms if you let her!

Ember is ready to find her forever family, where she can keep spreading joy, laughter, and unconditional love. If you’re looking for a loyal, affectionate, and endlessly sweet companion, Ember is the one for you!

Come meet her today—she’s waiting to steal your heart!
