IMPORTANT-SAFETY FIRST!
For the safety of our dogs and the public, SCGSR provides volunteer orientations and training in dog handling. Volunteers who handle dogs at events are required to go through the orientation and training. For convenience we have recorded these sessions and you can watch them here. Every dog is an individual and will react to different situations in a unique manner. Although we do our best to evaluate a dog's temperament, we have not seen every dog in every possible situation. Please use caution with any unfamiliar dog, particularly around young children. Mishaps can have severe consequences for SCGSR, dogs and handlers. Always ask a senior volunteer for guidance when interacting with dogs at adoption events, dog walking, or with dogs in any situation, anywhere, where you have concerns. Remember, safety first!

Aristotle (Telly)
Telly was born just days after SCGSR rescued his mom, Anke, from a high kill shelter. Both Telly and his brother have a rare genetic condition that makes their hair grow in patches, giving them an unusual appearance. A Shepherd breeder would have euthanized these otherwise normal puppies--instead, SCGSR has helped them grow into lovely, social dogs, ready to fit in to a forever home! Telly is a very affectionate boy--he loves to lie in your lap and give kisses. Sometimes his tongue droops out of his mouth when he's sleeping...it's pretty adorable. Tall and lean, Telly is housebroken, crate trained, and walks like a gentleman on a leash. Both boys love to ride in the car--especially when it's taking them to doggie daycare! Telly is great with dogs of all sizes, and he loves kids too! Striking and sweet, Telly and Kojak will make an ideal pair for any family. Best friends looking for a best friend--are you the lucky person who will look past their silly appearance, and welcome their love into your life?
Telly and Kojak are attending day care generously donated by Puptown Doggie Daycare. You can also see them on our webcam at Ustream.com.

Help SoCal Rescue save lives!
If you would like to meet one of our dogs, please read the following information. The first step is for you to fill out our online application. This is the starting point in adopting from SCGSR. We strive to keep our website current within 24 hours. If you see a dog on our site, it is most likely available. The more information you give us about your dog experience, your home, your fence, children and other pets, the better we can do to match you with one of our dogs. Keep in mind that we may be working with prior applicants, and be patient. We are all volunteers and we will try to respond within 72 hours.
Our adoption donations are tax deductible and range from $300 up. Rescuing dogs without public subsidies is expensive. If you don't want to pay our adoption donations, please consider adopting directly from a publicly sponsored shelter. SCGSR dogs will be spayed or neutered, current on vaccinations, and in most instances they will be microchipped. To those big hearted people willing to adopt older dogs or dogs with physical problems, we will work with you on adoption donation amounts.
The adoption process involves an application, a telephone interview, a meeting with our dogs and then a home and fence check. In certain cases photos of your house and yard may be substituted for a home check. SoCal Rescue typically does not adopt puppies outside of San Diego County, so that we can provide continued support to adopters as puppies grow up. Adult adoptions out of area will be considered on a case-by-case basis.
