NEW ADDITION!!! P**A!
Our website for listing our new adoptive dogs is temporarily down so we will post here for a day or two!

adoption questionnaire must be submitted prior to be connected to P**a's foster mom. www.socalweimrescue.org/pages/adopt

P**A was named by her adventurous dad for the largest city in Coatia. P**a is also known in Botswana for BLESSING or RAIN. P**a is a large beautiful town and this strikingly beautiful blue 2 year old inspired her owner to give her a name reminding him of breathtaking scenery he shot in many of his photographic memories.

P**a's foster mom is astounded at her good natured ability to get along with any dog she encounters. She has been on countless off leash walks and stays very close checking in often. Would be perfect hiking buddy! Loads of energy and knows basic commands. She is reliably house trained and crate trained but she prefers to be left loose in the home not doing any destruction. BUT she will empty and toss around trash containers and counter surf any crumbs or food source left during her humans absence. She was turned over to rescue because her owner lived in a very very small apartment with no yard and very little time to pay attention to this active little nugget. She was getting less and less exercise and yearned to run free in the fields and on a beach somewhere.

Currently P**a has three foster sisters and she gets along great with all of them respecting their space and their desire to sleep in until their daily 5 mile off leash walk. She happily greets strangers on trails with a cute wag to her shorter docked tail. She knows basic commands and is a very smart willing to please student if you care to teach her.

The bad??? Shoot...the only thing we can say is that P**a doesn't like the living room set up with a sectional so will take a short cut over the top of the sofa while playing with the other girls. She also has LOADS of energy so tots under knee height might be bowled over in her exhuberance.

Want to meet P**A??? She is fostered in the INLAND EMPIRE Riverside area. She would love to find a great home before the foster decides she's not leaving!

EDIT TO ADD: One of the major factors we failed to mention in our first post is that his adoption fee is sponsored! YES, this sweet goofball is truly PRICELESS.

Want to set up a meet and greet? Fill out an adoption form and let's set you up! He is in Irvine.

They have been out in a yard since their owner passed away not understanding why....where is everyone??? It will be a whole new life for them but they get to STAY TOGETHER!!!!!!!

THANK YOU TO Mark and Sylvia Amaral for your commitment to drive to meet them and for giving them a new place to call home!

Leaderboard Check-In Time!

The race is on and it’s a tight one!

DC Area Weimaraner Rescue and Great Lakes Weim Rescue are in a head-to-head battle for the top spot—with just $100 separating them!

MEET MOWGLI

Though he's not 100% weim, we still think he's 100% good boy! A young 8 years old with the vibrance of a puppy but experience of an adult dog. He has a full tail, adorable white paws and chest, and LIVES for playing outside. His foster reports that he gets along great with other dogs and would be wonderful in a home with a buddy.

He's currently fostered in Irvine area of Orange County, neutered, microchipped and up to date on all of his vaccines and ready for his new home! Fill out an adoption application and let's set up a meet and greet!

Transport covered!!!! You are all amazing!!!! Thank you Erica and Ann!!! Hugs kisses and lots of love!!!! Ziggy will be taken care of!!!

URGENT TRANSPORT Needed from South Gate Los Angeles area to Lancaster area the beginning of the week. 3/31 would be ideal! (foster not available until then)

This is 6 year old Ziggy. He has been living in the backyard of his owners home since she passed away a couple weeks ago. He has a paid dog walker feeding and walking him. We have a foster in the Neenach area of North Los Angeles County but no way to get him there. Is anyone willing to drive this boy a couple hours to get him to safety? We hate to think of him living outside through no fault of his own.

OR We could use a foster in the South Gate, South Los Angeles area if someone want to go get him and foster him for us?????? We have been told he is house broken but because of current situation may not be as reliable?? He has always been an inside dog. He is a friendly happy boy! He has lived with small dogs and does well with them.

ANYONE?? If you can help contact [email protected] or call 951-366-8811

🐾 Ariel’s Story: Love in Her Final Days 🐾

Ariel didn’t get the long, happy life she deserved. When SoCal Weimaraner Rescue took her in, she was in critical condition—malnourished, neglected, and too weak to fight. Despite every effort, her body couldn’t recover.

But in her final days, Ariel knew love. She experienced soft beds, gentle hands, and the warmth of people who truly cared. She left this world knowing she mattered.

This is why we walk. Walk for Weims ensures that every Weimaraner in need gets a chance—whether it’s days, months, or years of love and care. Some, like Ariel, don’t get a full second chapter, but they deserve dignity, comfort, and compassion.

On April 12th, we walk in honor of Ariel and every rescue Weim who deserves a chance. Join us. 🐾💙

TUCKER (and SLATER) UPDATE!

Remember Tucker with a huge perineal hernia who was mere days (hours) away from euthanasia before we committed to taking him? LOOK AT HIM NOW!!

After getting amazing post op treatment by his foster mom and becoming best friends with his foster brother, Slater, he found his wonderful new home and got to keep his brother too 😊!!

This is a great example of the power of our supporters, this wonderful dog was literally on death’s door but, thanks to you all, we were able to get him top notch treatment at and get him a second chance at life.

Shout out to transporter and foster !!

California friends, contact your California legislator about this horrible legislation which would make it illegal for us to do minor vet procedures by ourselves. This puts a huge burden on rescues, pet owners and breeders. Vet appointments will become even harder to get!

Voice your opposition to AB 1502! Send your senator an email before Tuesday!

HAPPY TERRIBLE TWO'S BIRTHDAY!!!!! The litter of 8 puppies was born to Daisy on the cusp of 2/15 to 2/16 2023. Daisy was pregnant when she came to us on February 5 2023 at just over a year old. Her water broke on the fosters couch at 10:30pm on 2/15 and the fun began!!!! The journey has been amazing for these lucky pups. We thank every single adopter for taking them in and giving them loving homes. We hope each are enjoying their Birthday today!

Litters in rescue are rare but we so love them when we get them! Even mom found a fantastic home!

TUCKER UPDATE

He’s not only cone of shame & hernia-less he’s sadly also forever home-less 😥. Now that he’s all healed from his big surgery, his true personality is starting to shine through. His foster reports:

▶️ Acts like a puppy despite being 7
▶️ Love attention and is a true Velcro dog
▶️ Crate trained!
▶️ Loves his toys & food so needs a home where they’ll be mindful of resource guarding
▶️ Full beautiful tail!

Want to meet this handsome fella? He’s currently fostered in Santa Clarita area. Make sure to fill out an application on our site: socalweimrescue.org/adopt
