Welcome Sia ❤️ to the PTR Family! Sia ended up at the South LA shelter with a microchip, but no one ever came for her! Sia is 17 yrs young according to her chip and is a tiny 6lbs!
Sia will be a forever foster with Kimberly in Calabasas, CA ❤️
P.S. The lovely woman giving her kisses is our amazing and oh so valued puller and transporter, Nancy. We love her and can never thank her enough for safely bringing these beautiful babies to their fosters!

Please fill out an application to start the process to meet LUNA! Meet and greets will be held in TARZANA, CA
LUNA is 2 yrs old and is a spayed purebred French Bulldog with a brown and tan coat which will require regular minimal care. Luna is an owner surrender who loves everyone, everything, is incredibly sweet and well behaved and boy does she love to play!
Luna is housebroken, can use a doggie door; she has good leash manners and is dog and people friendly. Luna is very loving and we are looking for an experienced Frenchie adopter with a stable home life who is retired or works from home and looking for a companion. We would prefer another small dog …. perhaps even another Frenchie in the home!
Will you be the lucky one to take this sweet girl home with you?

PRE-ADOPTING NOW! Puppies not available until early December after full vetting is done.
Please fill out an application to start the process to meet KIRA & MISHKA. Meet and greets will be held in RIVERSIDE, CA
We are pre-adopting these sisters now. They are approximately 8 weeks old and they will be fully vetted in early December.
As you can see, they are Siberian Husky sisters with vivid blue eyes; Kira is snow-white and Mishka is the tri-colored beauty. They weigh 14 lbs at this time, so they will be large girls when grown. Their foster is working on potty-training and crate training as well. We are requesting no name changes please! They are being fostered with small dogs and cats and they have shown no negative behaviors with them.
We are looking for an experienced Husky owner who is not intimidated by this gorgeous, funny and entertaining Husky breed. We would also like to have them adopted together as they are already very bonded. Will you be that lucky family?
Huskies are high-energy dogs that require significant exercise and mental stimulation to prevent destructive behavior. They are known escape artists and have a strong prey drive, so a secure yard and a leash are essential. Huskies are also very social, don't do well being left alone, and are stubborn, making training a patient and consistent process.
High energy: Huskies need a lot of daily exercise, such as long walks, runs, or hikes, to prevent boredom and destructive behaviors.
Bred to run: They were bred for long distances and will find their own way to get energy out if not given an outlet.
Mental work: Provide mental challenges through training, puzzle toys, or other engaging activities.
Training and behavior: Stubborn and independent: Huskies are intelligent but can be stubborn, often questioning commands to decide if they are worth doing.
Require patience: Training requires a consistent, firm, and fair approach, using positive reinforcement rather than shouting or punishment.
Pack animals: They are social dogs that thrive on companionship and need to be a part of the family. They don't do well being left alone for long periods.
Escape artists: Huskies are notorious for escaping by digging under fences, jumping over them, or finding other ways out, so a secure yard is critical.
Leash essential: Keep them on a leash at all times when not in a securely fenced area.
Grooming and health.
Shedding: Huskies shed a lot, especially during seasonal "coat blows," and will require frequent brushing and vacuuming.
Double coat: They have a thick double coat and are relatively self-cleaning, typically needing baths only a few times a year unless they get particularly dirty.
Heat sensitivity: Due to their thick coats, they are sensitive to heat. They must have access to shade, air conditioning, and plenty of water in warm climates.

Bonnie & Brodie’s vet visit! ♥️

Bonnie and Brodie at the vets! ♥️♥️
11/11/2025
Bonnie and Brodie ♥️♥️ Update: Per the vet: BOTH DOGS ARE AT LEAST 13 YRS OLD, not 8 yrs old.
Brodie has a huge mass (accounts for his big belly) likely on his spleen and he weighs 14 lbs.
Bonnie has a grade 4/5 heart murmur and is starting on heart meds today, she weighs 12 lbs.
We are waiting for their lab results.
With Brodie, the worry is that the mass may burst causing internal bleeding. Will be considering a possible surgery to remove the mass, but more testing is required.
Bonnie seems to be steadier on her feet which is good news.
We will update with more info after the lab results are in.

PAWSITIVE TAILS WITHOUT BORDERS
Animals know no borders. The dog and cat overpopulation issue plague both sides of the US and Mexico border. STDs are diseases endemic in the border towns of Mexico and the US. PTR is committed to making investment in spay/neuter clinics on both sides of the border, assist on a case by case basis with the medical cancer treatments of dogs and cats who have been exposed to these diseases due to lack of spay and neutering. We have provided food, nutritional supplements and basic needs for several dogs in the Tijuana area, who later come to foster in the US as we seek long term loving homes for them under PTR's umbrella.
Pawsitive Tails to Remember “PTR” is a section 501(c)(3) no-kill dog rescue group, incorporated in December 2017, with over 75 years of animal and rescue experience amongst our volunteers. PTR is committed to helping the most needy among our community's most vulnerable creatures.
We are a volunteer-driven organization dedicated to restoring the dogs under our care to physical and emotional health as they await placement in loving, responsible homes.
Virtually all donated funds will be spent directly on the care of the animals.
PTR stands ready to help you, our prospective adopter or foster home, to find a companion who will thrive in your heart and home. We are here to assist you in every way possible throughout the fostering and adoption process, and will continue to be a helpful resource after you have welcomed your new pets into your life.
