5 years-old, male, 60 lbs, English Bulldog Mix

dog & cat friendly, potty & crate trained, vaccinated, neutered

Apollo has been through a lot, but you’d never know it by the way he wags his tail when he sees you.

We rescued this sweet, smushy-faced boy from the streets of Downtown LA, where he’d been passed between several unhoused individuals. We know of at least three different people who cared for him as best they could, but street life took a toll. When we found him, Apollo was overheating, struggling to breathe, limping, and suffering from extreme allergies.

Since coming into our care, Apollo has begun the beautiful process of decompressing—and wow, has he shown us what a loving and gentle soul he is. He adores his crate (his safe space), loves being pet, and will happily wag his little tail to say hello. While he’s not super active, Apollo absolutely lights up around other dogs and thrives in their company.

He’s around 5 years old and weighs in at a compact, muscular 50 pounds—a true “dense boy” with a small frame and a big heart. His limp (from a back knee issue) has improved with rest and anti-inflammatories, and we’ll continue monitoring it. He’ll be neutered next week.

Apollo especially loves men (all of his previous caretakers were male), but he’s open to anyone with a kind heart and a gentle touch. He’s still in the healing process, but he’s already made huge strides—and we know he’ll make someone or some family very, very happy.

2 years-old, female, 65 lbs, Pit Bull/Rottweiler Mix

dog (medium & large) & kid friendly, potty & crate trained, vaccinated, spayed

Meet Bailey, our sweet, smart, and athletic adventure girl. Bailey is dog-friendly with medium and large dogs, crate and potty trained, and doing wonderfully on leash. She loves pack hikes, playtime, and being close to her people. She’s also a snuggly, affectionate dog who bonds deeply with her humans.

Bailey thrives with structure, exercise, and someone who will love her as much as she loves them. She’d do great as an only dog or with one confident dog companion. Bailey has been professionally trained and fosters will receive full trainer support if they want it.

We rescued Bailey from a backyard breeder situation as a puppy. She was recently returned to our rescue and is now looking for her forever family. Details on her return can be provided to interested adopters.
