These adorable puppies have been posted all over social media, but have had zero interest. This is heartbreaking - these dogs don’t deserve to die tomorrow, especially when they are just starting their lives.

All dog friendly, all vaxxed and chipped, and all can be adopted separately (or together)! They are located in Bakersfield, CA at Kern County Animal Services.

For more info on the dogs, please visit yesterday’s post. Not in Kern County? Transport is available and you can adopt over the phone!!!

Message me ASAP and/or call KCAS to save their lives!!!!

Okay, who wants to adopt Chalupa?!? Look at that smile!!!

Chalupa is listed as a heeler/pittie mix, but I definitely think he’s a Heinz 57 dog. He’s neutered, chipped, and about 9 months old. Found as a stray, he’s spent the last few months in the shelter and would love to find a snuggle buddy! He gives the best hugs and loves squeaky toys!!! He’s located in San Luis Obispo, CA.

More about him: “I have been at the shelter since Apr 04, 2026. If you’re looking for a fun-loving sidekick who is always ready for adventure, Chalupa may be your perfect match. This 8-month-old medium-sized pup is full of youthful enthusiasm, curiosity, and charm. Chalupa loves people and approaches life with an upbeat attitude that is hard not to smile about. He’s also a big fan of other dogs and enjoys playing with canine friends who can match his energy and keep up with his playful antics. Whether it’s a game of chase, wrestling with a buddy, or zooming around the yard, Chalupa is always ready for fun. Chalupa went on an outing with one of our wonderful volunteers and did very well in car. He loved looking out the window and taking in all the sights and scenery, making him an excellent candidate for future road trips and adventures. As a young dog, Chalupa is still learning the ropes and will need continued work on all the basics, including training and manners. The good news is that he’s highly treat motivated, which makes training a great opportunity for bonding and learning. With consistency, patience, and plenty of snacks, this smart young pup is sure to make great progress. Chalupa is looking for a family that is excited about all the fun (and occasional chaos!) that comes with raising a young dog. In return, he’ll provide plenty of laughs, adventures, and unconditional love. If you’re ready for an energetic best friend who loves people, enjoys canine playmates, and is eager to learn, Chalupa is ready to hop in the car and head home with you!”

SOS! Jones needs an experienced adopter or rescue ASAP!!! Professional training provided for free to adopter!!!

Jones has been in the shelter for 10 months and has had ONE showing. He has been going downhill due to kennel stress and needs to get out immediately.

More about this sweet boy:
He is a neutered, very gentle, incredibly potty trained, and sweetheart. He does need to be the only dog in the house and is unknown with cats. He loves car rides, playing fetch, treats (especially frozen kongs), snuggling, and quiet spaces.

He’s had a rough past, so an experienced adopter and/or trainer would be best for his success. He thrives when he’s out of the kennel and with someone he knows and trusts. Due to his size, he’s a strong boy! Consistency is key with Jones!

His animal ID is A329911 and he’s located in San Luis Obispo, CA. Please contact San Luis Obispo Animal Services if you’re interested in adopting, rescuing, or have any questions. (805) 781-4400

Thank you for reading! 🐾

😭😭😭 I have a VERY urgent situation...

Grace was found as a stray, emaciated and neglected in Southern California. Beautiful citizens have taken her under their wing, spending their own money to rehabilitate her and nurse her back to health. Despite her scars, wounds, and obvious lack of food, she's the sweetest and most loving girl. She's currently fostered in Westchester (LA area), but can be transported.

Her current foster has paid for all of her vet bills, with no rescue backing. She's contacted several rescues and has one that *might* take her, if we can secure a foster. Unfortunately, the current foster has several dogs and will need to find her a new foster or adopter by Monday, May 25th. If no one steps up, she will have to be surrendered to a shelter - which means immediate death.

Info about her:
- Vet thinks she's about 7-10 years old
- Unsure about cat/dog friendliness, as she needs time to decompress and heal from her illnesses
- Spayed
- She was suffering from pyometra, severe anemia, emaciation, and eye infections when found. Since being rescued, she had pyometra surgery, a blood transfusion, bloodwork, and all medications and treatments for eye infections. This has all been paid out of pocket by her current foster.

I'm unable to foster for a few weeks, so I'm hoping someone will have it in their heart to foster her - or better yet, adopt her!! If you can help, please message me ASAP.

Peach is in urgent need of a new foster or better yet, a furever home! She’s currently fostered under , but current foster has her living in a garage and that’s not at all ideal with Summer heat.

About Peach…

Well, Peach is a PEACH! She gets along with everyone. This lab/terrier mix was saved from the euthanasia list, weighs 60 lbs and is 1 year old. She likes to hang out with people more than any other dog. She can take or leave cats. She is great off leash and listens when she is called. Peach is always ready to jump in the car and go wherever you go. She’s crate trained too! Pretty sure she’s a dream dog…

Are you interested in fostering or adopting Peach? Fill out an application on https://loveallanimals.org/! I’m happy to transport Peach to you. 🐾

Let’s get her out of a HOT garage and into a HOME!

This beautiful Shar Pei mix needs a new home ASAP.

To say this girl has been through the wringer is an understatement. Back in January, she was pulled from the euthanasia list at Kern County Animal Services at the very last minute. She was adopted, but didn’t have a proper introduction to the owner’s cat, which resulted in her being rehomed. More chaos ensued (zero fault of her own), but she’s currently in her third home in four months. Her current situation is a temporary foster, and she needs to find a new home ASAP.

Name: Sadie, spayed female, chipped
Age: 2 years old
Weight: ~50 lbs.
Breed: Shar Pei mix
Energy: Likes to go on walks, play with toys (but can get too enthusiastic) - overall low energy level. Has a great jump, but wouldn’t recommend she play basketball, haha.
Cat/Dog Friendliness: Needs to be in a home with no cats and slow introductions with dogs.
Kids: Slow introductions with kids would be great (just like with any dog)
Health: UTD on vaccinations, but does have skin issues (common issue with Shar Peis) and foot yeast. She’s an itchy girl, but is currently on Hill’s Science Diet Sensitive Stomach and Skin food.

She’s currently in Northern San Luis Obispo County. Transportation can be arranged anywhere! $50 rehoming fee.

Dahlia has been at San Luis Obispo County Division of Animal Services for one year today! That’s 1/3 of her young life! We can’t let her spend any more time in a kennel.

Dahlia is listed as a pitbull mix, 3 years old, and a happy girl. She’s fairly active, likes going on walks, and LOVES playing with a ball. As you can see, she is a big fan of rolling in the grass, will run in the rain (or shine), and loves a good belly rub. Her smile is never wiped off her face and she’s always happy to see a friend.

Dahlia is not dog reactive, but would probably do best as the only dog in a home.

Ready for your new best friend who will love you unconditionally?

Visit Animal Services (next to Woods) and meet Dahlia! Call 805-781-4400 to make an appointment or drop by during public visiting hours, Monday through Saturday from 12-5 (extended to 7pm on Wednesdays). If you want to adopt her, I will cover HALF of her fees!
