Betsy Just Wants A Home!

ID# A1357256

In November 2012 Betsy's dreams of a forever home came to a crashing end when her family surrendered her to the West Los Angeles Animal Shelter because they were moving.  The weeks went by ever so slowly as she waited for her forever home.  On March 2, 2013, after 4 long months at the shelter, Betsy was adopted.  Her forever home at last, she thought…but little did she show.  On May 26, 2013, after 3 shorth months, she was again returned to the shelter and again the same excuse…her people were moving and Betsy was not wanted!

Bobby has been at the West Los Angeles Animal Shelter since February 27, 2013.  When he first arrived at the shelter, he was very scared.  This was a frightening environment for him to have to adjust to, but adjust he did.  He has gained confidence with the attention that he has received, and now actually smiles when approached by someone.

"Charlie" Needs You!

UPDATE: ADOPTED 6/26/2013

Thursday May 16, 2013 was not a good day for Charlie.  he sat leaning on his owner's led in the from office as the surrender paperwork was completed.  Little did he know what lay ahead for him.  His "forever" home would be no more and a cage at the shelter would now be his new home.  The owner had work conflicts and Charlie had to go.  It was a sad day for both Charlie and his owner.

Charlie is a 9 year old, neutered male, brown and white Labrador Retriever/Staffordshire Bull Terrier mix.  He weighs in at 77 pounds.  Charlie is a strong boy who pulls a little bit on-leash but is an extremely easy-going, gentle dog.  He is a little timid and submissive when he first meets someone but he warms up quickly.  He likes people and loves to be rubbed and petted.  He is a very friendly and affectionate dog.

Rockin' "Roxie"

UPDATE: ADOPTED 5/23/2013

Roxie is an energetic, fun-loving pup who can be a little shy initially but arms up quickly.  She likes to be held and cuddled.  Roxie listens and will be very receptive to learning basic commands like Sit, Stay, etc.  She prances when she walks and does not react to the other dogs when walking through the kennel.  She has a good time in the yard and loves to run around.  She has been described as an awesome dog.  Roxie has been in the yard with other dogs and is eager to play as can be seen in the video below.  After running off some of her energy, she is ready to settle down for some cuddle time with her favorite person.
