LAST CALL: This guy needs a home ASAP. Please if you are interested let us know! ✨️UPDATE: Thank you everyone for sharing this wonderful guy, it has really reached a lot of people, but unfortunately we haven't had a SINGLE person contact us about him. Let's get this guy a home. If you are interested come meet him, you will fall in love! This is Max, he has been here at the shelter for 3 months now and desperately needs his own family. He is approximately 9 months old and a Shepard mix. He gets along great with other dogs and has a great goofy personality. If you are interested in Max or have any questions about him please call the shelter or stop by to meet him! 661-763-1227

Lincoln, the shepherd mix! Is available for adoption. $60 or $63 depending on your address. He is around 8-9 months old!

Running wild in the yard. 😊

BUSTER 🎉🐾

This is the sound they make when you get to close.

SANDY!! Our July Dog! 🥰 $63 to adopt. That includes her spay, and rabies shot! She is the SWEETEST! I’m not lying, you guys. Come out and meet her! She’s a little shy, but warms up quickly! She is the perfect dog for anyone! Lap dog? You got it! Want to go hiking? She’ll join ya!! Any questions? Feel free to message us or call us @ 763-1227 !

SANDY! How’d she get her name? Funny you ask! The day she was brought in, she threw up a WHOLE sandwich! 🤣 Sandy is SO SO sweet, the perfect lap dog. She is possibly around 3 years of age, (just an estimation) & would LOVE to be the newest addition to your house. Come see if she is a good match for you! 661-763-1227 🐶

A short video of rocky & Penelope playing together ☺️ they are both available for adoption! Rocky is already neutered and current on his rabies. Penelope would need to be spayed, but that’s an easy fix 🤩

Dog of the day! Is.... ROCKY!! He is already neutered & current on his rabies shot! He’s a SUPER playful guy! Around a year old. He has played well with dogs we have here, but just like people not every dog is going to like one another even if they’re friendly with another. We always encourage people to bring their pets out if they are interested in one of ours just to check the waters 😊 Rocky is a tad bit of jumper, but he is a food enthusiast! So he could easily be trained with treats🙂 Come out and meet Rocky! 🐶♥️

*ADOPTED!!** ADA 🐶 she is available!! She is under a year old, ready to be adopted, spayed, & taken to her new home! She is super sweet, loves to play & would make a great addition to the family! Because she is still young, she would be easy to train! Woo hoo! It is 63$ to adopt this beautiful GS. The 63$ you pay, includes her spay & first rabies shot! & half of the licensing fee IF you live in the city limits. Don’t let this pup pass you by! she is so sweet & so special! 🥰
