COWBOY

Hey y'all, meet Cowboy!

Cowboy is a one year old, neutered, male Australian Shepherd mix. He is up to date on vaccinations and is microchipped.

Cowboy is sensitive, introverted, and naturally calm. But that doesn't mean he doesn't enjoy meeting new people and pups; he just might need a minute or two to warm up. He is a very gentle and thoughtful dog. Once Cowboy connects with his people, he lights up completely with full-body wiggles! Quite a sight to see! He is eager to please and deeply responsive to guidance. In his short life, Cowboy hasn't had a family to call his own. He has visited multiple foster homes and done very well in each.

Although he's been through a lot and is still searching for his forever home, none of that has ever gotten him down. He is the sweetest, smartest, and most loving boy. Cowboy is a great dog and can't wait to find his family!

AVA

Ava is around 3 years old, she is up to date on vaccinations, potty trained, microchipped, and spayed.

Ava LOVES humans. She gets along perfectly with women, men, and children. She’s never met a human she doesn’t love. Ava will give hugs and instantly be your shadow and best friend. She’s so eager for a family of her own. Ava is deeply emotionally attuned and will make such a loving and loyal companion.

As much as she loves humans, she is dog selective. But with proper introductions, she can get along very well with other dogs. Her current and trusted trainers will facilitate any introductions. We invite interested families and their dog to come meet her Topline K9 Services.

Ava is often seen walking around with a stuffed animal in her mouth and tail wagging! And as much as Ava loves her stuffies, she loves humans even more. She craves human attention, bonding, and connection. She is playful, active, and protective. Ava loves to be brushed, pet, cuddled, and sitting on laps.

Ava is a smart girl and knows the commands - sit, down, off, and will shake your hand like a professional!

ZOEY

We are networking Zoey for a good friend.

Zoey’s story began behind a liquor store, where she had been abandoned, tied up in an alley with nothing but her bed. Left alone and confused, she eventually chewed through the leash and wandered through an alley and a nearby parking lot until she found her way to a local bar. There, the patrons offered her scraps, but no one could give her a home.

Luckily, our friend saved Zoey. After just a couple of days, she began jumping into the car on her own and walking happily on a leash after being hesitant about these new experiences. She is a sweet girl, eager to understand her new environment. She has puppy energy, but she is still relatively mellow. Zoey is around two years old.

She was vetted during this time and gradually introduced to the routines of life with a guardian. She learned to ride in a car, sleep indoors, get baths, and go on regular walks. Always with a sweet temperament. She also walked alongside my dogs with a separate handler, not too interested in interacting with the other dogs, just doing her own thing at her own pace.

Now, Zoey is fully vaccinated, spayed, and ready for a family. She’s been in boarding for the past few months, and her personality has really started to shine. Here’s how the staff describe her:

“Zoey has a lot of personality. She loves to run around and zoom in the yard. She lets out little inquisitive, playful barks when she gets jealous of other dogs doing something she’s not. She keeps herself entertained in her outdoor kennel, happily playing with her bone and jolly ball. She’s full of puppy energy.

She’s just begun settling into her indoor kennel. She no longer whines, howls, or barks much when she goes inside.”

Now that Zoey has healed from her spay surgery, her socialization is the next step. All signs point to her being a happy, mild mannered, adorable gal.

To schedule a meet and greet, or for more information, please contact her foster mom, Yvette at 310-897-8369 or KindBeachLife@gmail.com

April

We are networking April for a good friend.

April has been waiting for her forever.

She is about one and a half years old, spayed, fully vetted, and overflowing with love. But what makes April special is not just her good health or her beautiful soul, it is her story.

April was found wandering the streets of San Bernardino with her little pug friend by her side. They had each other, facing the world together. When help finally came, her pug friend was adopted almost immediately. April watched her friend leave, happy for them, but she stayed behind. And she is still waiting.

Despite everything she has been through, April has never let go of her gentle heart. She is sweet and affectionate, the kind of dog who leans into you just a little longer, as if memorizing the feeling of being loved. She is wonderful with people of all ages and especially kind with children. She has been around cats and even chickens and has shown nothing but calm curiosity and respect.

April loves going for walks and has even been on hikes where she happily explored the world at your side. But at the end of the day, her favorite place is right next to you. She is just as content snuggled up on the couch, soaking in quiet moments and soft affection.

With other dogs, April truly shines. She is exceptional, kind, patient, and friendly, the type of dog who makes everyone around her feel safe. She does not demand attention, she simply hopes for it.

April is not looking for perfection. She is not asking for much. She just wants a home where she will not be left behind again. A couch to curl up on. A hand to hold. A family who will choose her and mean it.

She has already proven how much love she can give. Now she is waiting for someone to give that love back.

April is ready. Ready to belong. Ready to be chosen. Ready to finally go home.
