13. Oscar

Adult · Male · Lhasa Apso / Shih Tzu (short coat) · 15 mi from Chino

Meet Oscar: a 5-year-old, 22-pound sweetheart with a big, happy smile and an even bigger personality.
When Oscar first came into foster care, he was the dog watching quietly from the corner, unsure whether people could be trusted. Four months later, he’s blossoming. He’s discovered a love of toys, so much so that he gathers all his favorites into one big pile. He plays fetch with enthusiasm and has a blast romping with other small dogs at the dog park. He’s even starting to enjoy walks, though he’s still getting the hang of them. And when it’s time to rest, you’ll find him burrowed deep in a blanket for a cozy nap.
Oscar is a one-person kind of dog.

Read more about Oscar

That’s not because he’s unfriendly, as he doesn’t have an aggressive bone in his body, but because he looks to one special person for guidance and affection. Right now that’s his foster mom, who gets all the belly-rub requests. He’s shy with new people and probably won’t show his true self at a first meeting, but the way to his heart is simple: bring treats! He’ll happily take them from new friends, and he’s so food motivated that he’s a joy to train. Once he decides you’re his person, you’ll have a loyal, affectionate companion for life.
At heart, Oscar is a homebody. He’d do best in a calm, adult-only home with a yard, ideally with a friendly small dog who can keep showing him the ropes. He’s fully potty trained with zero accidents in the house, sleeps quietly in his dog bed in the bedroom, rarely barks, and is very healthy. He doesn’t guard his food or toys. Car rides make him a little nervous, but he does great once he arrives. He hasn’t lived with cats, but his foster thinks he’d likely do fine with them.
If you’re looking for a devoted sidekick with a smile that will melt your heart, Oscar is ready to meet you.

27. Ryder

Young (1 year 9 months) · Male · Beagle / French Bulldog / Mixed (short coat) · 14 mi from Chino

Meet Ryder

Ryder may have the shortest little legs and the longest little body, but this adorable Beagle mix has a heart that is absolutely HUGE! This sweet boy has been through quite a journey, and we think it's about time his story gets the happiest ending!

Read more about Ryder

When Ryder first joined OURS, he discovered the wonderful world of unlimited kibble and, well, let's just say he got a little carried away! He gobbled up so much food that his belly ballooned, sending us straight to the emergency vet in a panic. As it turns out, Ryder simply has some wonky ribs that make his tummy look a little unusual when it's full. Everything works just as it should, and all that kibble digested without a hitch! Crisis averted, and Ryder earned himself a pretty funny story!

But Ryder's journey hasn't been all laughs. He came to us with his sister, his very best friend and partner in crime. Sadly, she lost her battle with complications from distemper, leaving Ryder to figure out the world without her. And while our hearts broke for this sweet boy, Ryder showed us just how resilient a little dog can be.

He learned to stand on his own four very short legs, make new friends, and embrace life with the sweetest spirit imaginable. Today, Ryder is a happy, loving little guy who is ready to leave the hard chapters behind and start his greatest adventure yet — a forever family of his very own!

Quick Facts About Ryder

Breed: Beagle Mix

Personality: Incredibly sweet, lovable, and resilient

Special Features: Long body, teeny-tiny legs, and adorably wonky ribs!

Dog Friendly: Has learned to make new canine friends

Health: His unique rib structure doesn't interfere with normal digestion or function

Looking For: A loving forever family to call his own

Located in: Southern California

Ryder has already experienced love, loss, and a few unexpected adventures in his young life. Through it all, he's held on to that beautiful, gentle spirit that makes him so special.

Now it's Ryder's turn to be someone's whole world. He doesn't need anything fancy — just a family who will love his funny little body, cherish his enormous heart, and promise that the best days are still ahead. Could you be Ryder's happily ever after? If you are interested in meeting Ryder, please apply here.

Rescues and shelters near Chino

The rescues with the most dogs listed within 25 miles of Chino.

Adopting a dog in Chino

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.
