Can Boxers fly?

Hmmmmm .... can they? Most can't but our Sir Lancelot certainly is able to take off, stay in the air and land safely.

SAR's new NorCal branch has launched!

Yoshika will head the new branch in the SF Bay Area. She took two deathrow dogs up north and placed them into foster homes while searching for permanent homes. She will be expanding her foster home network and hopefully very soon more dogs from shelters here in SoCal will have a second chance.

**New dog** Meet KANO

Kano is his name (in Spanish it's an affectionate name for gray since as a cattle dog he is gray). He is 1 yr old male and they have had him since he was a pup. He is neutered and has all his shots. He is good with other dogs, loves to play with other dogs and toys. He is house trained. He knows some commands. He listens when you call. He is people friendly and at the same time would make a good watch dog. He still has that puppy attitude and would love to just run and play.

Meet WHITE BOY and BRINDLE GIRL

Both Boxers were pulled from a high-kill shelter in Lancaster. We have not named them yet but what is for sure, is the spay/neuter appointment in a couple of days. Yoshika will drive them up to NorCall where foster homes are lined up.
The boy has demodex and has to be treated for a month or so. He will be shiny and new in no time. The girl is a dream boat.

Good-bye letter from ALEX to his foster mommy

Good-bye letter from ALEX to his foster mommy

"Dear Mamma Martina, I was a lucky boy, I was a happy boy. My life began with you and ended in your arms. I don't want you to feel pain or guilt over our little "misunderstandings" . I wasn't always the easiest doggie to handle, I know that. But everything I did, I did it for you. Even my separation anxieties were testament to my love for you. You see, I couldn't stand being away from you so when you disappeared from my sight, I panicked. I know it brought a lot of stress to your life but I simply couldn't help myself. The sun rose and set around you and that was it. Without you I would have been another lost soul, long forgotten in a dreadful kennel where some nut jobs convince themselves that this is the best a dog like me will ever get. I was once a proud, healthy, handsome pup who could have been the joy of any family, But this wasn't meant to be for me. I guess everyone has to "pay their dues", mine just were steeper than some. In the end it was all worth it though because of you. I remember the days when you would come up to the kennel and take me for walks or long hikes. I knew then what you didn't, that one day I would wiggle my way into your home. I had already conquered your heart, I knew that, even if you refused to acknowledge it. But bringing in another pup into your already crowded household required more than just dedication, it demanded a burning passion and selflessness that few people are able to demonstrate, and in my special case, endure. So what, I made you eat your dinner in your car occasionally in order for you to have peace and quiet. Well look on the bright side, these are memories you will have forever. Not every pup is capable of driving their human to the brink of hopelessness with such gusto. I was one of a kind and we both knew that. You stuck by me when no one else did, through the bad and the not so bad. Hey, will you ever have another cuddle bug like me endure quietly and selflessly a Grey's Anatomy marathon by your side? I provided you comic relief when you least expected it and let's face it, you knew I had your back and more on all our outings. I was fiercely protective of you and would have given my life for you any day. Lola, Bobby and the rest of the lunatics, you are now in charge of my special girl, that goes for you too Gene! (get that kitchen set up pronto!) My Mamma Martina needs her little haven. I leave this world a better soul for knowing you and  I will be waiting when your time comes, alongside Petey, Hurley, Tonka, Mitch and all the souls you have touched and rescued over so many years. Just don't hurry quite yet, you got more work to do down here. I am a lucky boy, I am a happy boy thanks to you Mamma Martina.

Sophie and her pups

It looks like there is a possibility that Sophie will live with his foster mom and the girl puppy, Pepper, is going to a forever home soon. Yeah! The boy puppy Charlie is still waiting for his forever home but since he is still with his mommy, all is good in his opionion.

A home for DYLAN ?

An important connection was made at the recent Malibu adoption event. Do we hear adoption bells????

Meet young CHARLIE

Now 5 months old, Charlie is growing and growing. He has excellent social skills because he still lives with his mommy and sister. Nothing is better for a puppy to learn from his mother!
