Hi. I’m SMOKEY. 🐶

This morning I woke up… upside down. Again.

One ear flopped over my face. One paw sticking straight in the air. Don’t ask me how I got there, I was just playing, and then… poof… out like a light.

That’s kind of my thing:

🎾 Play until my legs forget how to leg.

💤 Nap like I’m auditioning for a sleep commercial.

🐾 Wake up ready to do it all over again.

You’ll know me when you see me. I’ll be the one with the soulful eyes and a shiny black-as-night coat, tongue hanging out the side of my mouth like I just lost track of what I was doing. (Probably because I did.)

I’m always looking for my next playmate, toy, stick… or maybe even you, my bestie, forever hooman.

I’m great with other dogs! 🐶 I live with a few in my foster home and we have an absolute blast together! But as much fun as I’m having here, I’m longing for something I’ve never had yet… my forever home.

So, where to go next? Hopefully into your life. 💛

Want to meet me in person?

Come say hi. I’ll be the happy guy with the wagging tail, soulful eyes, puppy breath and a heart ready to be yours furrrrever!

🫶Thankful Tuesday!🫶

ISA and her newborn puppies got their freedom ride out of Moreno Valley Shelter this morning! She had given birth to 4 puppies, but 2 passed away before their rescue. Her deadline was today at 5 pm!

We are so thankful to the foster family who stepped up so we could save ISA and her remaining puppies! 🙏💛 And we know ISA is so thankful to have been saved!

This little family has only a brighter future ahead! 🎉🐾

Thank you to everyone who networked and came together to make this rescue possible!

Well well, what do we have here? Look at this gorgeous blond beauty! 😍
Meet HALLIE, a stunning 2 yr old female Golden Retriever/Lab mix, recently rescued from the South LA shelter where her family left her behind when moving to a place that didn’t accept dogs. (We will withhold comment here..) 💔
Hallie is all things perfection… she is sweet, dainty, gentle in nature yet also playful, curious and ohhh so smart. She is incredibly affectionate and just wants to be with her people as much as possible. She gets along great with other dogs, kids, and has not shown reactivity on leash. She appears to be housebroken already too!
Hallie will do best in an active home where she is the center of attention and treated as part of the family. 👸🏼 She is great in a work environment where she rests quietly by a desk or at your feet. She is not ideal for someone who will be gone a lot or treat her as an afterthought.
If you are looking for a baby to spoil, love and have as a devoted and loyal companion- give Hallie a look! She is an absolute gem and will make a wonderful addition to a loving home.
If you’d like to adopt Hallie, please head over to our website for an adoption application! Links in bio 💕

Double the fluff, double the love! 🐾
Meet OBIE & CHEWIE —two well-socialized, adorable brothers who were born and raised in a loving home with their parent cats.

These playful boys are curious, cuddly, and sweet as can be! Whether they’re chasing toys, wrestling for fun, or curled up in a warm nap pile, they do everything together. We’d love for them to find their forever home as a pair, so they can keep sharing their adventures (and your lap). 💛

Adopting two kittens means instant companionship, built-in entertainment, and twice the purrs. If you’re ready for double the joy, head to our website to apply.

🌸 Meet JOY, HOPE & GRACIE! 🌸
These three sisters are as sweet as they come — each one full of love, personality, and puppy charm 💕

🐶 JOY is a gentle snugglebug with stunning green eyes and fluffy cheeks. She LOVES belly rubs and naps on her back like the silly girl she is. She’s playful with her siblings and would do best with a doggy friend in her forever home.

🐾 HOPE is our little love bug. She flops to the ground mid-play and gives you that heart-melting “love me forever” look. 🩷 Snuggly, soft, and full of sweetness — HOPE is ready to be your everything.

🐕 GRACIE is the confident, curious one! With her bouncy prance and “I got this” energy, she’s always leading the fun. She’s playful, smart, and loves to explore — another dog in the home would be a big plus for this girl boss pup!

All three girls are ready for forever homes full of love, snuggles, and playtime. Could one of them be your new best friend?

🐾 Meet SMOKEY — the mellow heartthrob of the porch pups! 🐶✨
Born under a porch and rescued with his mama and siblings, SMOKEY is now thriving in foster care and ready to find his forever home. (His sister BEAR is still available, as well as 2 brothers PERCY and MARBLE - check our website for details!)

This sweet Shepherd mix is everything you love about a puppy—playful, curious, and full of affection—but with a calm, gentle vibe that makes him extra special. SMOKEY loves to romp with his siblings, play with toys, and snuggle up after a little adventure. He’s now showing that he's great with dogs other than his siblings and adores people of all ages.

Looking for a puppy with just the right mix of fun and mellow? SMOKEY might be your perfect match. 💙🐾

Foster found! Thank you!

🚨 URGENT FOSTER NEEDED 🚨

Meet Hope, Joy, and Gracie — three baby girls, just 8–10 weeks old, found locked in a crate with two mama dogs and abandoned near a busy road. No food, no water, no one coming back for them. Thanks to and her team of heroes, they were just rescued and brought to our vet in Irvine.

See rescue post here:

Though they were scared, they never stopped being sweet. Gentle, curious, and full of potential — they just need a safe place to land. 💔

We’re urgently looking for a foster (or multiple fosters!) to help these girls heal and feel safe again. Everything is provided — you provide the love.

📩 DM us and apply to foster at promise4paws.org if you can help❣️ Links in our bio for convenience.

Hope, Joy, and Gracie deserve a soft place to land. Let’s not fail them again.
