Meet Charlie.
We saw his photo circulating on Facebook and could not get his face out of our minds. He was just the saddest soul we had seen in a long time. We did a courtesy post for him on our social media but nobody stepped up for him – so we did. Once we got him out of the shelter we were shocked by all of the different medical issues Charlie had. We ran many tests and determined that he has Cushings disease. In addition to that he has some gnarly looking growths on his belly and does not have the greatest appetite. We are working with an internal medicine specialist to determine the best course of action for this guy. We really want to get him feeling better so he can have the second chance he so deserves.

Taffy

Meet Taffy. She’s a 2 year old poodle who was used as a puppy making machine before we were able to rescue her from the backyard breeders that had her. According to them she had 4 litters in her young life. Those days are behind her now. She is spayed, chipped and up to date […]

Meet Taffy. She’s a 2 year old poodle who was used as a puppy making machine before we were able to rescue her from the backyard breeders that had her. According to them she had 4 litters in her young life. Those days are behind her now. She is spayed, chipped and up to date on shots. She is a sweet, 12 lb girl who would love to spend her days with you. She’s affectionate and loving. She is house trained and good with other dogs but is fearful of larger dogs so we recommend a home with small breed dogs for her.

Aspen

Meet Aspen. He’s probably one of the nicest dogs we have ever met. He was kenneled in the shelter with another dog and did fine with him. We got him out and to our vet to discover he had an old break of his femur that had never been treated. Luckily we were able to […]

Meet Aspen. He’s probably one of the nicest dogs we have ever met. He was kenneled in the shelter with another dog and did fine with him. We got him out and to our vet to discover he had an old break of his femur that had never been treated. Luckily we were able to get him right into surgery and he is now recovering well. (He had an FHO surgery). There should be no major long term effects other than that leg will likely be weaker than the other leg.
Aspen is a snowy white American bulldog. We think hes about 1.5 years old. He is totally housetrained, good with all dogs large and small and affectionate and loving. We actually think he would be a great candidate for a therapy dog. He is a mellow, gentle energy and loves nothing more than snuggling with his humans.
He is neutered, chipped and up to date on shots.
Thank you for choosing to adopt and saving a life.

ToTo

Meet ToTo. He was rescued from Tijuana were he was living in a literal pile of trash. He made his way to to US and is now safe with us. A happier, more grateful dog will be hard to find. ToTo is excited about the world around him. Every treat is a celebration. Sleeping in […]

Meet ToTo. He was rescued from Tijuana were he was living in a literal pile of trash. He made his way to to US and is now safe with us. A happier, more grateful dog will be hard to find. ToTo is excited about the world around him. Every treat is a celebration. Sleeping in a soft bed is worthy of a party. He loves all dogs and enjoys playing with his 5 lbs foster sister. He is house trained (99%) and calm in the house. He loves going for walks. He does not bark and is not at all destructive.
ToTo is ready for a forever home to call his own.
He is an Apricot poodle/terrier mix and we think he’s about 1 year old. He’s neutered, chipped and up to date on shots.

CoCo

Meet CoCo. We rescued her after she was found along with her 4 puppies on a sweltering summer day. Her puppies have all been adopted and CoCo is waiting for a family to call her own. CoCo is about 2 years old and 13 lbs. She’s a silky terrier mix (best guess). She’s very sweet […]

Meet CoCo. We rescued her after she was found along with her 4 puppies on a sweltering summer day. Her puppies have all been adopted and CoCo is waiting for a family to call her own. CoCo is about 2 years old and 13 lbs. She’s a silky terrier mix (best guess). She’s very sweet but shy at first so it takes a little while for her to warm up when she first meets someone new. She’s house trained and good with other dogs.
She’s spayed, chipped and up to date on shots.
Thank you for choosing to adopt and saving a life.

Greta

Meet Greta. She is a lab mix (mom is a 45 lb golden lab) puppy. We rescued her from Tijuana along with her mom and siblings. Mom was living on the streets eating scraps until a kind person took her in and allowed her to have her puppies in a safe, warm home environment. She […]

Meet Greta. She is a lab mix (mom is a 45 lb golden lab) puppy. We rescued her from Tijuana along with her mom and siblings. Mom was living on the streets eating scraps until a kind person took her in and allowed her to have her puppies in a safe, warm home environment.
She was born without an opening for her rectum. Luckily she found her way to us and we were able to get her the surgery she needed to create a new rectum so she can go to the bathroom properly. The surgery was a great success and she is now a happy, healthy puppy.
She has been well socialized and is a happy, outgoing girl who loves being around other dogs and people. Our guess is she will be around 45 lbs at maturity.

Meet Norman.  He is a 3 year old pitbull we rescued from a neglectful situation.  His former owner adopted him from the shelter and then abandoned him at an elderly relatives house who was not equipped to care for him.  He spent his days and nights outside with no medical care.  We stepped in and sent food and toys and paid for a trip to the vet to have an irritation on his leg looked at.  Finally we agreed to take over his care and had him join our rescue.
Turns our Norman was a diamond in the rough – a real gem of a dog. Norman is as sweet as he looks.  He is good with all dogs big and small – medium energy and an all around great guy. He is currently in a cage free doggy day care and does great there. He is truly a breed ambassador.

Jaci

Meet Jaci. She is a purebred Boxer who was likely left at the shelter because she was born deaf. Jaci is a very sweet, active girl who lives playing with other dogs. She would do best in a home with at least one other large dog (preferably a male) to keep her busy. Jaci loves […]

Meet Jaci.
She is a purebred Boxer who was likely left at the shelter because she was born deaf. Jaci is a very sweet, active girl who lives playing with other dogs. She would do best in a home with at least one other large dog (preferably a male) to keep her busy.
Jaci loves being around kids and is gentle and respectful of them.
We are hoping to find a home for her with deaf dog experience.
She is 6 months old, spayed, chipped and up to date on shots.

Felix

Meet Felix. We saw a dark, blurry photo of a dog hiding under a house in Tijuana – his mouth was tied shut with tape. He showed up on someones doorstep – silently asking for help. But that person would not allow him in the house because the infection from his muzzle “smelled”. He went […]

Meet Felix.
We saw a dark, blurry photo of a dog hiding under a house in Tijuana – his mouth was tied shut with tape. He showed up on someones doorstep – silently asking for help. But that person would not allow him in the house because the infection from his muzzle “smelled”. He went back into hiding but luckily a good hearted person was able to locate him and get him safety to LA where he joined our rescue.
The tape caused major damage and cut though his entire muzzle. He was rushed into to surgery and he was stitched up. He is now recovering in the loving home of a vet tech.
Despite the unbearable pain he has endured – he does not hold a grudge. He is sweet and loving and appreciates the kindness from the vet staff and foster family.
He is only 6 months old and 12 lbs. We suspect he will be around 18 lbs at maturity.
We want a home where he will be spoiled and adored. If you think that is you: loveleorescue@gmail.com

Hanz

Meet Hanz. He was turned into the shelter after his owners said he started limping and they did not want to take him to an orthopedic specialist to be examined. After an exam with our surgeon – it appears he may have had a cut which caused an infection in his bone. He needed surgery to remove a damaged piece of his femur (FHO). We have no doubt he will lead a happy and healthy life though he may never be a long distance runner and may have a slight limp or lameness in that leg.
He has a very sweet disposition and charms everyone he meets – including cats and dogs. He is a 4 month old pure bred German Shepherd mix. Our guess is he will be around 65-70 at maturity.
