Lexi

Meet Lexi 💕
Lexi is a sweet, soulful girl who is estimated to be around 2 years old—though she could easily be a bit younger. From the moment you meet her, it’s clear that she’s craving affection, reassurance, and a place where she truly belongs. She loves being close to her people and is happiest either curled up in your lap or right by your side.

Lexi has clearly had some training and is eager to please. She responds to her name, knows cues like “leave it,” walks nicely on leash, and has excellent car manners. She’s gentle, attentive, and very tuned in to her humans.

While Lexi is still learning how to play with other dogs, she truly wants to join in. With time, patience, and positive exposure, she’s expected to gain confidence and learn the ropes from her foster siblings. Her heart is wide open—she just wants to be accepted and loved.

Lexi would do best in a calm, loving home where she can continue to build confidence and soak up all the affection she’s been missing. If you’re looking for a loyal, affectionate companion who wants nothing more than to be your best friend, Lexi may be the perfect match.

Maisie - Special Needs Dog

Meet Maisie: approximately 12 years young, 45 pounds of lab-mix loveliness, and living proof that age is just a number (especially if you forget it every few minutes — which she might).

Maisie has been with the rescue for more than 14 months, and we’ve all agreed: she’s not just a dog, she’s a vibe. A little pacing? Sure. A touch of dementia and some liver issues? Yep. But is she happy? Absolutely. Alert? You betcha. A drama queen about her meds and special food? Not even a little. She’s as chill as they come — no worries.

This sweet gal is what we call “low-maintenance luxury.” She enjoys the finer things in life: leisurely garden strolls (with time to sniff every. single. leaf.), sunbathing like it’s a competitive sport, and receiving pets like royalty — often leaning in so you really get the message: more, please.

Maisie may not be up for marathons, but she’s an expert in emotional support and companionship. Her favorite hobbies include:

Sniffaris through the neighborhood (nose first, questions later)
Long naps in warm spots
Thoughtfully staring at the wall (possibly contemplating the meaning of life… or kibble)
Resting her head on you like the living weighted blanket she is

She requires meds and special food to keep her joints limber, her liver happy, and her mind as sharp as it can be — and she handles it all like the unbothered queen she is.

Maisie is looking for a loving retirement home where she can proudly display her quirky self.

If you’ve got a soft spot for sweet seniors, an extra doggie bed and a heart big enough to love a gal who sometimes forgets where she put her tail, Maisie might just be your soulmate.

Help us support Maisie through her twilight years. With monthly expenses just under $400 for Maisie’s veterinary care, we are reaching out to those of you have a special place in your heart for senior dogs. Read more about her here.

Benny (aka Clifford)

Meet Benny!
This 5-year-old German Shepherd mix (he’s got some Labrador Retriever in his DNA too) is the perfect blend of loyal companion and easygoing best friend. Benny comes when called—every time—and is always up for a walk or training session (especially if treats are involved!). He’s a quick learner and consistently follows your lead.

Need an enthusiastic security system? Benny will announce visitors like a pro, but his tough-guy act stops at the bark.

When it’s time to relax, Benny is happy to chill at your feet while you work, read, or watch TV. Want a snuggle buddy? He’ll hop on the sofa. Prefer your space? He’ll respect that too. Benny is all about making you happy.

He’s great with small dogs and, with proper introductions, does well with cats. He can be selective with bigger dogs, so slow intros are key. Benny doesn’t beg for food, and he’s wonderfully respectful of your belongings—no chewing on shoes, clothes, or glasses.

Benny thrives in a calm, kind environment, where someone is home most of the time. Most of all, he wants to be by your side, wherever you are. If you’re looking for a devoted, low-maintenance, and loving companion, Benny’s your guy.

Danny

We sprung Danny from the shelter in San Diego where he came in as a stray in dire need of some TLC. He was severely malnourished at 30lbs underweight with wounds and cuts to his as well as skin and ear infections.

Despite everything, this boy has been an absolute love. He is friendly and relaxed with people, happy to interact with dogs, and a real homebody. He is incredibly loving and trusting, and we’re already seeing glimpses of his playful curiosity, gentle energy, and even some signs of past training. He walks beautifully on a leash, takes treats with the sweetest enthusiasm, and shows a natural sense of polite behavior.
He has not yet had an introduction to kids or cats, but from his demeanor it is likely he will be friendly with both. Danny would do best in a home with multiple adults that will minimize his alone time as he acclimates to his new life.

Abbott

This handsome Golden Retriever is named Abbott because he’s a bit of a comedian – spend a little time with him and he’ll have you laughing in minutes. Given this, and his need for continuing education, we couldn’t help but make the connection to the show Abbott Elementary whose themes align with this beautiful Golden Retriever:

Untapped Potential: Abbot’s high energy and personality invites the need for guidance and structure.
Growth Through Guidance: Abbott is making progress with patience, consistency, and positive reinforcement.
Good Intentions, Imperfect Execution: Abbott’s well-meaning nature is sometimes expressed in chaotic or comedic ways.
Joy Amid Chaos: Abbott brings laughter and warmth even while testing boundaries.
Supportive Environment Matters: Abbot thrives when given encouragement, understanding, and clear expectations.

While he knows sit and down and takes treats oh-so-nicely, he still needs to curb some of his excitable behaviors, counter surfing, begging, and mouthiness. He is a big, handsome boy weighing about 100 pounds and would benefit from losing a little extra weight…especially since he thinks he’s a lap dog. He’s 2 years old and a confident, happy, curious, loving dog. Abbott sleeps in his crate at night and loves hanging out in it too. Belly rubs are one of Abbott’s favorite past times and he enjoys chasing the water stream from a hose.

Abbott was lovingly surrendered to us by his family who cared for him deeply, but after welcoming a new baby, they realized Abbott wasn’t getting the exercise and mental stimulation he needs to thrive. If Abbott sounds like the star pupil you’ve been looking to share your home with, fill out an application.
