7. Robby

Adult (3 years 6 months) · Male · Golden Retriever / Great Pyrenees / Mixed (long coat) · 23 mi from Carlsbad

Looking to adopt a 'special' case? Thank goodness!Robby (fka Robin) came to us from Ensenada (baja) the first week of October and is currently staying at casa de ARWOB and living among several other adoptable rescue dogs and cats. Robby is a huge baja mutt which means he looks like a Golden, oversized Spaniel and some say Pyr. The likelyhood of a Pyr runnign the streets is minimal but we have not done (and will not be doing) a DNA test so these breeds are just from aesthetics and a bit on personality. Robby was rescued by someone who lives in Ensenada, Mexico back in february. He was skin and bones, was unable to move during a rainy day as he was under an embackment it took a bit to secure him as he was very weak and getting down to him and up was an ordeal for the good sams but they knew this dog needed help and were not going to leave without him.

Read more about Robby

Euthanasia or saving it did not matter, he needed help. Once secured took him to a vet who weigh him at only 20kgs (very thin and almost no muscle mass) the rescuers kept him and helped him recover. Fast fwd months they seeked help to adopt him out or move him to a group with no luck. An ARWOB rescue partner heard of his plea and helped get him going ei neuter etc in september and then he came to San Diego where he landed at casa de ARWOB. What we realized is this pup is VERY heavy. Not sure if its lack of excercise where he was or too much "love" and over conpensated for his lack of nutrition before. When Robin (now called Robby) arrived san diego he was 69 pounds. As of late October he is now 65 pounds. Measured meals and just running/walking mostly around the yard with fellow arwob dog friends is really getting him down and we have noticed a significant improvemnt on his movement. At first we did not know if he was an older dog or perhaps just obese. We can say this guy can walk and use stairs no problem, he will play around the yard with his dog friends and LOVES to be part of a pack of humans or dogs. However, we believe he likely has an old injury (ies) either his hips, hind legs or knees. We are debating taking xrays as whatever it is it will NOT be fixable. The people who helped this dog likely never noticed maybe back then at a thin size and recovering he moved more and now that he is a big boy and is slowly loosing weight perhaps we will see an increase in his activity BUT for now, we do NOT see this guy as somone who can go on miles a day on a walk. MAYBE one mile or just whatever amount of walk/movement he wants in the yard interacting with dogs but if you are looking for long distance or high intensity movement partner this guy is not going to be it. Ideally an easy going home who wants an easy going companion would be the best for him. IF we do xrays likely will be done early November so we can have more info for potential adopters should this movement be a factor for someone to choose him. Robby is a silly goofy, easy going, gentle dog who is a really good dog and human companion. He has zero issues with dogs. He is not a socialitite with people and its a slow warming up but from the interactions we have seen within a few minutes of walking or saying hi he warms up to humans, just do not expect waggy tail approaching for pets from him when he first meets you...once you are his human either foster or adopter then YES he is all waggy tails and lovely boy who seeks human attention without an iota of separation anxiety. He is doing great on potty and crate training. In ensenada he was in a home with cats, we don't know how 'good' he was with them. At casa de ARWOB he does not interact with cats on his own. We think a cat who holds its ground and is NOT a scary cat ei runs from him will be fine. He seems safe BUT he can also really observe him so we can't say completely if he is going to be well paired with cats. If anyone interested in him has cats, we are happy to expose him more and observe him more with cats to see if he is chill or not. It will also be very cat pers

8. Ringo

Adult (2 years 11 months) · Male · Terrier / Poodle (Miniature) / Mixed (medium coat) · 23 mi from Carlsbad

Looking to adopt a gentle yet fun soul? Perfect! Ringo is a handsome solid colored mutt. Focus on the mutt wording. He comes to us from ensenada as a owner relinquishment. He was bought as a pup by a couple 3yrs ago. Once they separated 6mo ago they rehomed him to someone. That someone passed him to a local indie rescuer in Ensenada back in July because they are moving and now this cutie is under ARWOB care in san diego. He is the new kid on the block and so far he has been pretty amazing. Gentle, very dog friendly and playful with all dogs. He really does have puppy energy, shy at first but pretty quick to open up to them.

Read more about Ringo

He can be insecure at first with people but it only took a day for him to trust his new caretaker. He is crate trained and with his thin long legs and slender built he likely would be an amazing excercise partner. He is you typical small breed energy, silly, playful, loving and a terrier who probably has some sort of poodle BUT we have no idea meaning, we have no idea if he is hypoallergenic, he DOES shed like any other dog. If you are looking for a none shedder and hypo dog, he likely is not it. As of October he is fostered at casa de ARWOB along with many other adoptable dogs and cats. He has received most or all of her vet care here in san diego. He only spends time with the felines supervised when in the home but so far we can say he is pretty safe around cats. Very dog friendly and social towards humans, fairly gentle until he knows you then he has no personal space towards them, ha ha. Ringo is certainly a good gentle soul who is friendly and playful. Interested? Submit an application online at ARWOB.org so we can text or email to schedule a call once we receive an application. If the bio is still up it means he is still available for adoption. Check ARWOB.org for adoption events (we rarely hold events and prefer to do one on one meet ups at a community park for neutral meets with a very flexible schedule for meets during daylight hours) EMAIL us with any further questions or to speed the process submit an application, Pooches Gracias!

9. Nala

Young (6 months) · Female · Dachshund / Terrier / Mixed (short coat) · 23 mi from Carlsbad

Looking to adopt a social butterfly? Excellent! Nala is a beautiful brindle colored mutt. Focus on the mutt wording. She comes to us fromt he streets of Tijuana as a street pup. She has been in San Diego since September and has received most or all of her vet care here in san diego. Currently fostered at 'casa de arwob' meaning along with several adoptable dogs and cats. Her BFF is Robby but Pickles, Carmie and Happy are her buds too. She only spends time with the felines supervised when in the home but she is very playful in their face kinda pup so she is best paired with a cat who is secured of itself and not a scardy cat who will run when a pup comes full throttle of excitement to say hi, she is safe around kitties but very playful, of course adopters can slow intro on both species.

Read more about Nala

She adores humans and dogs. Healthy, small breed baja mutt which means she is likely a super mutt with a large and small breed combined to have a small medium breed as we suspect she MAY reach 20lbs. She has a low rider body ei long and short legs with a LONG strong waggy tail. She is very playful, active and perfect for an active household. She is crate trained and just a bundle of joy. Interested? Submit an application online at ARWOB.org so we can text or email to schedule a call once we receive an application. If the bio is still up it means she is still available for adoption.

He enjoys couch snuggles and will settle down quickly by your side or in your lap. He sleeps well alone in his bed but definitely prefers to be by your side. He is a respectful little shadow.

He is also a little protective of his bed, treats, and foster mom around his foster brother. He is working on this but can be corrected and redirected relatively easily. Creed is very trainable and has learned to not bolt out open doors until his foster mom gives the “ok”.

20. Ross

Adult (3 years) · Male · Spaniel / Cattle Dog / Mixed (short coat) · 24 mi from Carlsbad

Meet Ross! Ross is a handsome 3-year-old, 22-pound Spaniel/Cattle Dog mix with a striking white coat, adorable black and brown spots, and a heart full of love! His breed is our best guess, but one thing we know for sure is that this sweet boy is absolutely irresistible!

Ross may be 3 years old, but he still has all the playful energy and enthusiasm of a puppy! He is an affectionate, happy-go-lucky guy who loves spending time with his people. Whether he's heading out for a walk, exploring his surroundings, or soaking up some love and attention at home, Ross approaches life with a joyful spirit that's sure to make you smile.

Read more about Ross

This smart boy is eager to please and a great listener! He's currently working on his basic commands, including "sit" and "stay," and is making wonderful progress as he learns the ropes. Ross walks nicely on a leash, although unexpected noises and busy environments can sometimes make him a little nervous. With gentle encouragement and reassurance from his person, he bounces right back. As he continues to gain confidence, we know he'll blossom into an even more wonderful companion.

Ross currently shares his foster home with a small male dog, and the two get along well! He has also shown no aggression toward cats, although his enthusiasm can sometimes get the better of him. He's still learning that feline friends appreciate a calmer approach rather than an excited greeting, so patient introductions and a little guidance will be important in a home with cats. Another big plus? Ross is fully potty trained and knows to take care of his business outside!

Ross would thrive in a loving home with people who appreciate his playful personality and are willing to continue helping him build confidence as he experiences new things. He's a wonderful mix of affection, energy, and eagerness to please, and with a little patience, consistency, and lots of love, he's sure to become an incredible companion.

If you're looking for a fun-loving, affectionate, and loyal best friend who will bring plenty of joy and personality into your life, Ross might just be your perfect match. He is neutered and up to date on vaccinations. His adoption fee is $300.

There is nothing scary about the Monster's Inc puppies; like Mike and Sulley, these puppies will have you grinning ear to ear.

We don't know who their dad was, but these puppies are currently on track to be large to extra large when they are done growing. These stunning puppies have been hand raised and are very social and loving. They have been around dogs, cats and kids in their current foster home.

27. Charlie Brown

Adult · Male · Labrador Retriever · 17 mi from Carlsbad

Meet Charlie Brown! He is around 5.5 years old and is a gorgeous purebred yellow Lab.

He is better with female dogs than male dogs and he has been tested around dog savvy cats in a controlled environment and passed. With a slow, patient introduction, we think Charlie could live in a home with cats. Charlie was housetrained and crate trained in his previous home.

28. Napoleon Dynamite Pup

Puppy · Male · Labrador Retriever / Shepherd / Mixed · 17 mi from Carlsbad

Vote for one of the Napoleon Dynamite pups! These friendly, outgoing puppies are social sweeties. They came to us without a mom or dad so we aren't quite sure of their breed mix, but we believe they are Lab and Shepherd mixes on track to be large dogs when they are done growing. Their tails are always wagging, and these pups love any and all attention. Rex is looking for a family that understands the time, patience, and energy needed to raise a young pup. We require all puppy adopters to provide training that includes: house training, basic training, leash training, and socialization. Additionally, this cutie is going to need proper exercise, mental stimulation, and your attention and love to grow up to be the best companion.

Bringing a dog home to your cat

Tell the rescue about your cat: their age and how they react to dogs. A dog who has lived calmly with one cat may still want to chase a cat that runs.

Introduce them slowly. Keep them apart for the first few days and swap bedding so they get used to each other's scent, then let them meet with the dog on a leash, rewarding calm behavior.

Make sure the cat can always get somewhere the dog can't reach, like a high shelf or a room behind a baby gate, and keep the litter box and cat food out of the dog's way.
