Ella
I found Ella and her son Enzo homeless in Alabama as I was driving in March 2021 from Florida to the ranch in Morris. They had been living on the street for a while, both were heartworm positive and intact and so malnourished that I didn't realize Ella was pregnant until 2 weeks before she gave birth to 7 adorable puppies.
Ella is the absolute sweetest and most perfect dogs ever and has yet to meet a stranger. Literally everyone who meets her immediately loves her. She's approx. 8 years old in 2025 and will make the perfect Therapy dog which I am working on getting her licensed for.
Ella is currently located in Big Bear, California.
Scrappy
Scrappy, a NYC ACC alumni, is a Chihuahua-mix, ​approx. 12 years young, neutered and weighs around 15lbs. He is a sweet old man who takes some time with new people. He's a very happy, faithful and loyal little dog who loves getting spoilt.
He came to us with a Grade 5 heart murmur and progressed to an early stage of heart failure. He is on medication and regular check ups and placed with a hospice foster (fospice) in Syracuse, NY where he is getting spoiled like the little prince that he is. He's been stable for 6 months without further progression of his disease so we are positive that he'll enjoy a few more years.
Scrappy is in Hospice care with a wonderful foster family in Syracuse, NY
Lola
Lola is an American Pit Bull Terrier according to DNA testing, was born approx. 2020 and weighs a good 50 lbs. She came from Louisiana where she'd been abused by a (male) shelter worker in the public (kill) shelter, repeatedly. So unsurprisingly she became wary of people and came to us being a fear snapper. Lola has gone through a tremendous transformation within the last 3 years. She has learnt to trust again, has become the absolute cutest love bug, loves to be cuddled and handled, picked up and rolled around, kissed and spoilt. Lola has built up her confidence enough to be happy to meet strangers and if they are calm-assertive she'll make fast friends. She listens really well and follows me around like my shadow. She does love tracking scents and loves running around and is great off leash. She will need an active human who will take her trail riding, hiking or running. At home she is excellent. She loves her crate and cushy dog beds, and will just sleep until it's time for the next walk. She loves all dogs, is good with cats, has learnt to be good around chickens and ducks, goats, donkeys and horses. She is learning about and getting better with bicycles. Lola is located in Big Bear, California.
Daisy is a sweet, low-maintenance Pug who recently swapped the High Desert for the mountain air of Big Bear, CA. As a local rescue, she’s looking for a forever home that matches her calm, easy-going spirit.
Why You’ll Love Her
- The Ultimate Companion: Daisy is a gentle soul who is just as happy relaxing on the porch as she is heading out for an adventure.
- Social & Brave: She is excellent with dogs and cats (she truly loves feline friends!). She is remarkably unfazed by wildlife and livestock, including squirrels, bunnies, horses, and cows.
- Adventure Ready: Daisy is a dream in the car, whether it’s a quick trip or a long haul. On the trails, she has great recall and walks beautifully off-leash. She’s even tried out a ride on a horse!
- The Details
Health: Daisy is currently waiting for her spay appointment at the end of May. She is available for a "foster-to-adopt" arrangement until then.
Location: Big Bear, CA.
Daisy is the perfect mix of mountain explorer and couch potato. If you’re looking for a "go-with-the-flow" girl to join your pack, reach out to meet her in the mountains!
