1. Dosa
Adult (4 years 11 months) · Female · Shepherd / Mixed (short coat) · 8 mi from Camp Pendleton North



Courtesy post for another rescuer. Please contact allysonart8@gmail.com for more information on Dosa.
Dosa has an incredible story of resilience. She was rescued from a large pack of dogs living in a field in Tijuana, where she and her sister were found in very poor condition. Sadly, her sister did not survive, but Dosa responded beautifully to treatment, good nutrition and lots of care. Since then, she has doubled her weight, grown stronger and gained so much confidence.
Dosa is a 50-pound Shepherd mix with beautiful black and brown coloring. She has medium energy level, is crate trained and very obedient.
Read more about Dosa
She enjoys going for walks and does well on a leash, although she is still learning and improving her skills.
Dosa is a loving, affectionate and social girl who warms up nicely to new people. She enjoys attention and is happy to let children pet her. She also gets along well with other dogs and would enjoy having a canine companion. Cats, however, are not a good match for Dosa, as she has shown a strong interest in chasing them.
Dosa is currently being fostered in Tijuana, but can be transported anywhere in Southern California.

2. Farmer
Adult · Male · Corgi (medium coat) · 22 mi from Camp Pendleton North



❤️ A FARMER IN THE DALE! MEET FARMER! ❤️
Meet Farmer, a handsome 2-year-old Corgi with a big personality and a heart just waiting for the right person to understand him! ❤️
Rescued by GreenDog Foundation from Palmdale Shelter, Farmer was labeled “Rescue Only” due to sensitivities around his neck and having a collar attached. However, Farmer is okay on a slip lead and will walk beautifully on one.
Since arriving in foster care, Farmer has been given something every dog deserves: time, patience, understanding, and space to decompress. And what a difference it’s made!
Read more about Farmer
Farmer has shown us that he can be a sweet, calm, easygoing companion who enjoys affection, pets, and belly rubs — on his terms. He’s also done well around his foster family’s child, who understands and respects a dog’s personal space.
A Little About Farmer:
●
2 years old | 34 lbs | Neutered male
●
Up to date on vaccinations, deworming, and flea prevention
●
House-trained and crate-trained
●
Appears to know basic commands
●
Calm, affectionate, and easygoing when he feels comfortable
❤️ Farmer’s Ideal Home
Farmer would thrive with an experienced, preferably Corgi-savvy owner who understands canine body language, respects boundaries, and allows trust to develop naturally.
A peaceful, predictable home without constant hustle and bustle would be ideal. An adult home or one with older, dog-savvy children would be best.
Farmer doesn’t need perfection. He needs understanding. With the right person, we believe this misunderstood little guy could be a wonderful, easygoing companion.
Sometimes the dogs who need a little extra patience have so much love to give. ❤️

7. Marley
Adult (2 years) · Female · Terrier / Mixed (medium coat) · 22 mi from Camp Pendleton North




Meet Marley!
Marley is a young, lovable girl with the perfect combination of playful, affectionate, gentle—and just the right amount of goofy!
Marley originally came from the Irvine Animal Care Center and was adopted into a home without another dog. Unfortunately, she struggled there. Marley became anxious and distressed when left alone because she truly needs the security and companionship of another dog. When her adopter decided she could no longer keep her, Green Dog Foundation stepped in and welcomed Marley into our rescue.
Read more about Marley
Now in foster care with other dogs, Marley is happy, playful, and thriving. She loves people and enjoys playing with dogs of all shapes and sizes. She is completely potty trained, leash trained, obedient, even-tempered, and eager to please. Marley loves toys, car rides, and social outings—but she is equally happy snuggling beside you and being a professional couch potato.
Because we now understand what Marley needs to feel safe and content, she must be adopted into a home with another friendly dog. For Marley, canine companionship is not simply a preference—it is an important part of helping her succeed in her forever home.
If you’re searching for a sweet, playful companion who will make you laugh, join you on adventures, and curl up beside you afterward, Marley may be your girl. She isn’t just looking for a family—she’s looking for a built-in best friend, too!
❤️
Marley’s adoption fee is $450.

8. Sadie
Young · Female · American Staffordshire Terrier / American Pit Bull Terrier / Mixed (short coat) · 22 mi from Camp Pendleton North




Sadie is a sweet 10-month-old pup who was found in downtown Santa Ana and is now getting to experience the love and comfort of being in a home. ❤️
Sadie is an absolute sweetheart and total couch potato. She loves lounging on the couch, snuggling up, and relaxing with her favorite toys. She’s also great with children and has a gentle, easygoing personality.
She is crate trained and great in the car, making her an easy companion for adventures or simply hanging out at home. She can be a little shy and unsure on the leash, but she is making great progress every day and continues to build confidence with patience and encouragement.
Read more about Sadie
Sadie is also curious about other dogs and has shown that she can do wonderfully around dogs of all sizes. At her very first adoption event, she never barked once and did so well being around all different sizes and personalities of dogs. ❤️
Sadie would be a wonderful fit as a solo companion, for a couple, or for a family. She’s still young and learning, but she is making amazing progress and we truly believe she will adjust beautifully to her new home.
All Sadie needs is someone willing to give her a little patience, lots of love, and a comfy couch to call her own. ❤️
Sadie is ready to find her forever family!

9. Odette aka Hair Do
Young · Female · Maltese / Terrier / Mixed (medium coat) · 22 mi from Camp Pendleton North



Meet Sweet Odette!
Don’t let her scruffy little haircut fool you—Odette is a tiny survivor with the biggest heart.
This sweet, playful girl weighs just
7 1/2 pounds
and was rescued from a South Los Angeles shelter after enduring heartbreaking neglect. She arrived severely matted, painfully thin, covered in fleas, and suffering from flea dermatitis. Her coat was so tangled that she had to be shaved, and during an earlier attempt to remove the mats, she was accidentally cut and required two staples. Thankfully, she’s now completely healed.
Read more about Odette aka Hair Do
Today, Odette is a brand-new girl! She’s gained healthy weight, her soft coat is slowly growing back, and her joyful personality shines brighter every day. She’s fully vetted, spayed, and we believe she’s
under one year old
.
Odette is full of puppy fun! She loves carrying around her toys, zooming around the yard, chewing on her favorite treats, and soaking up all the love she can get. She gets along wonderfully with other dogs and would love a playful canine companion to share adventures with.
She’s doing great on leash, sleeps quietly in her crate at night, and is making wonderful progress with her potty training.
Every day, her beautiful coat grows in a little more—but she’s already beautiful where it matters most. Odette is affectionate, resilient, and ready to spend the rest of her life knowing only love.
If you’re looking for a happy little sidekick who will brighten every day, Odette is your girl.

10. Tilia
Puppy (1 month 25 days) · Female · Terrier / Mixed (short coat) · 22 mi from Camp Pendleton North






Tilia's mom Ginger ended up at the San Bernardino Shelter VERY pregnant, scared and depressed. Even though she was "full term," they set her to be spayed and her puppies aborted, but we were able to rescue her just before this happened. A week later, she gave birth to 6 healthy and adorable puppies. These puppies are social and loving and come from a home filled with love. At 8 weeks of age, they will have had their initial dewormings, their first vaccination and microchip. Tilia is unique in that she currently has one blue eye and one green eye!
Read more about Tilia
Puppies are adopted out with a 'foster to adopt' contract and when they are deemed old enough to be spayed or neutered by a GreenDog Foundation Vet, the contract is complete and the adoption is finalized.
The adoption fee is $600 which covers their series of vaccinations including Rabies, microchipping and spaying or neutering. All of these services must be provided by one of GreenDog Foundation's Vets.
To fill out an application for adoption, please go to www.greendogfoundation.org or if you'd like more information on the puppies, please email greendogfoundation@gmail.com or to visit, please contact Krissy at (949) 456-7032

11. Mickey
Senior (6 years 3 months) · Male · Corgi / Mixed (short coat) · 22 mi from Camp Pendleton North





Mickey is an adorable and sweet boy with an undeserving past. He was owner surrendered to us by the daughter of the owner who is in end of life care due to brain tumors. However, Mickey was already microchipped and we traced down the chip. Turns out this boy was dropped into a "night deposit" at a local shelter in 2022 and then adopted out to a John Smith and we don't know how many people he has been with from him to the ones we received him from, but this boy doesn't deserve the life he's had so far. He is a picture perfect dog. He gets along with cats, dogs, chickens, kids...everything. He is crate trained and prefers to sleep in his crate for naps and puts himself away in it for breakfast, dinner and bedtime.
Read more about Mickey
He is fully housetrained and walks beautifully on a leash. He is the sweetest dog and we really want to make sure that his next home is going to be his last. He is a few pounds overweight, but has already lost a couple in our care. We had full blood work done on him and he is in picture perfect health. Mickey is a wonderful dog and would make anyone a wonderful companion. If you'd like more information on Mickey, please email greendogfoundation@gmail.com or if you'd like to fill out an application for adoption, go to www.greendogfoundation.org. Mickey's adoption fee is $450 and he is fully vaccinated including rabies, neutered and microchipped.

12. Fendi
Adult · Female · Pomeranian / Chihuahua / Mixed (medium coat) · 22 mi from Camp Pendleton North




Looking for your biggest fan? You'll always feel like the most important person in the world with little Fendi! She is a firecracker that loves attention and has no concept of personal space. She will be a constant fixture in your lap while you're relaxing and glued to your side everywhere you go. But, who wouldn't want to spend their time cuddling and getting kisses from such a cute girl?
While Fendi absolutely adores her person, she wants all your affection to herself. Fendi is a little diva who prefers to be your one and only dog.
Read more about Fendi
Although she will spend most of her time snuggling, Fendi enjoys food, toys, bubbles and going for car rides. She would prefer to spend her day with you, but she does fine alone and is even crate trained.
Fendi is a 4 year old, 15lb, Pomeranian/Chihuahua mix. She is spayed, microchipped and up to date on vaccines.

13. Rocky
Adult · Male · Yorkshire Terrier Yorkie / Poodle (Miniature) / Mixed (long coat) · 22 mi from Camp Pendleton North



If you're looking for an easy pup, Rocky is your guy! Overall, he is quiet and mellow, happy to spend his days relaxing and cuddling with his person. However, he can be playful and active if you're feeling up for some fun. He loves being outside and has become very interested in chasing lizards or squirrels.
Read more about Rocky
Rocky gets along with every person he has met, but he isn't running up to everyone to make friends. He is mostly uninterested in new people and needs a little time to truly bond and open up. Because he can be shy, we think a home with young kids may be too much for him. He also would do best without hyper/dominant dogs. He gets along with our pups, but Rocky is submissive and he has been picked on in the past by bossy dogs so we want to make sure he can feel confident and secure in his next home.
Although it may seem like he doesn't care at first, once Rocky is in the right environment where he can feel comfortable, he is a sweet, cuddly boy and he even enjoys playing with a few of our other dogs.
Rocky is a 15 lb, 5 year old Yorkie mix (likely with Poodle or Schnauzer) and has very soft, fine hair that will need regular grooming. Our groomer said he behaved very well during his hair cut!
Rocky is already neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped so he can move in right away!

14. Keira
Adult · Female · Labrador Retriever / Husky / Mixed (short coat) · 22 mi from Camp Pendleton North





Keira is a 2 year old, Husky/Labrador Retriever mix. She is looking for a fun, active home! She is always up to play with her pals, chew her toys, or go for a hike!
Keira gets along with all dogs and needs a doggy brother or sister to wrestle with in her next home.
Keira is friendly with all people, but she is pretty independent and not a cuddler. What she lacks in affection, she makes up for in goofiness. She tries to play with people but she doesn't know how so she ends up playing tag with you.
Read more about Keira
Keira is approx 45lbs. She is a good girl on leash and in the car. She is also housebroken and crate trained. She does have a strong prey drive and likes to chase lizards or any small creatures she can find so a home without cats is a must.

15. Molly
Senior · Female · German Shepherd Dog (short coat) · 22 mi from Camp Pendleton North






Molly is a purebred, 12 year old German Shepherd! She loves to play fetch and always carries her ball with her. Molly is active for her age, but is also a loyal, well-behaved house guest. She will just lay by your feet when it is time to relax and, when you need to leave her at home, she will patiently wait by the door until you get back!
Molly is friendly and gets along well with people. She doesn't bark, knows basic commands, does well in a car, and she is crate trained as well as housebroken. Molly gets along with other dogs, but is dominant and a bit pushy so she would do best as the only pet in her next home.
Read more about Molly
She has had regular vet check ups and is current on all vaccines! She is starting to lose her eyesight, but she can still see and has no problems finding anything or getting around.
Molly has been with us awhile and we truly hope she will find her people soon! She deserves to be in a home where she can be the center of attention and spoiled with tons of love and attention in her golden years!
Molly is currently being fostered in Menifee, CA, but transport to surrounding states can be arranged for the right home.

16. Barney
Senior · Male · Jack Russell Terrier / Poodle (Standard) / Mixed (medium coat) · 22 mi from Camp Pendleton North




Barney is definitely man's best friend. He enjoys a good scratch and will hang out with you while you watch TV. He even watches, too! He also loves his toys and will entertain himself with a bone for hours (no plush toys for him because he will pull out all the stuffing!) When you're feeling more active, Barney is happy to go out on adventures with you. He is very spry for his age! He loves car rides, hikes and exploring, but he sometimes pulls on his leash and barks at other dogs in excitement. He just wants to say hi, though! Barney is a very sweet dog and gets along with dogs, cats, kids and even bunnies! He would love a home with another dog, but he mostly just wants someone to give him attention and make him part of their family.
Read more about Barney
Barney is a very unique looking dog with his long legs, wire hair, and a mohawk! Even though he is only 20lbs, he tends to hang out with our big dogs since he is so tall! Barney is a Jack Russell Terrier/Poodle and approx 11 years old (he doesn't act like a senior at all). He is in great shape, neutered, vaccinated and microchipped.
Barney is also housebroken, crate trained and knows basic commands.

17. Archie
Senior · Male · Chihuahua / Jack Russell Terrier (Parson Russell Terrier) / Mixed (medium coat) · 22 mi from Camp Pendleton North




Archie is pretty much the perfect dog, but he gets overlooked because of his age. He is 12 years old but you'd guess he was younger. Yes, he loves to curl up in a lap to nap and doesn't require a lot of exercise, but he still enjoys playing and he loves to explore. He would love a family where he can be someone's travel buddy even if it's just a trip to a restaurant, coffee shop or the park. He loves car rides! Plus, he is friendly with everyone he meets, walks well on a leash, and has the best manners, so it's easy to have him tag along. He recently went to dog beach and had the best time! (Check out the video).
Read more about Archie
Archie gets along with all people, dogs and cats. He even previously lived with toddlers, but we think he deserves to spend his senior years in a bit more quiet environment than with young children.
Archie is approx 15lbs, neutered, microchipped and up to date on vaccines. He has had a vet exam and bloodwork done (all looked great) and he recently had a dental. He doesn't have many teeth left, but he eats kibble just fine.
Archie is quiet, even- tempered, and fine when left alone. He is also housebroken and crate trained (but we never need to crate him).

18. Mollie
Adult · Female · Yorkshire Terrier Yorkie / Chinese Crested-Hairless / Mixed (medium coat) · 22 mi from Camp Pendleton North






Mollie is a 6 yr old, 10 lb, Yorkie/Chinese Crested mix. How do we even describe her? She is a unique, special girl looking for a family who will love all her quirks!
First of all, Mollie has no sense of adventure and is a total homebody. She enjoys the comforts of home like a nice comfy couch. She has no desire to go on walks and does not enjoy car rides (she will hide under a seat, shaking the entire time). Whenever she is in a new, unknown environment, she is a nervous, shy girl. But, inside her home, she is happy, playful and very friendly! She will greet anyone (even a stranger) who walks through the door with so much exuberance!
Read more about Mollie
While Mollie is very friendly, she gets nervous when someone picks her up/carries her and she is not a big cuddler. She likes to hang out near you and enjoys a scratch behind her ears, but she is not a lap dog.
Despite her sometimes having anxiety, Mollie doesn't have an ounce of aggression. Even when she is at her most scared, she has never even growled or shown her teeth. The worst she will do is urinate if she gets extremely scared and that is very rare.
Since Mollie doesn't trust the outside world, she does bark when she hears noises. However, her previous family did not like it and got her debarked. She isn't totally silent when she barks, but it is not loud and it doesn't even sound like a bark. Very hard to explain the noise she makes, but she sort of sounds like an alien.
Mollie loves food! She came to us very overweight, but went on a diet and is the perfect weight now. Still, she scarfs down her meals and acts like you never fed her. Meal time makes her the most happy and she will spin in circles until she is fed. Mollie will not take your food while you're eating it, but, if you set it down, it's fair game and she will snatch it.
Mollie has allergies. She has food allergies and is on a specific kibble diet that works well for her but, during the spring, she also seems to have some environmental allergies that make her skin red and flakey. If it goes untreated, she will develop sores. When she shows any of these symptoms, we give her an allergy shot and it helps. We also regularly bathe her. Fortunately, she hasn't had any flare ups in awhile. Since she is mixed with Chinese Crested, the hair on her back is thin and is not from allergies or health issues. She will need an occasional haircut, especially for her face where the hair comes in full. We can recommend a great groomer if you are local and don't already have one.
Mollie gets along with cats and does great with other dogs. She would love a small pup to play with in her next home.
Mollie is housebroken and crate trained as well. She does fine left alone, but if she has free roam of the house, just make sure she cannot get to any food.
Besides her allergies, she is very healthy! She is vaccinated, spayed, and microchipped.
Mollie is quirky, but she is sweet, funny and, everyone who spends time with her, falls in love.
If you're interested in Mollie, please submit an adoption application on our website at www.dominoeffectanimalrescue.org

Adopting a dog in Camp Pendleton North
Most rescues ask you to fill in an application, meet the dog, and pay an adoption fee that usually covers spaying or neutering, vaccinations and a microchip. Many are foster-based, so you'll often meet your dog in a volunteer's home rather than a shelter.
Senior dogs are often the calmest companions and the slowest to find homes. If you'd like a settled, affectionate dog, ask the rescues about their older residents.
Puppies go quickly, so if you've fallen for one, contact the rescue soon. Ask how big they're expected to grow, and plan for plenty of house-training and training in the first few months.
