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!

Bear
Are you looking for a puppy who loves to play, cuddle, and is kind of silly-looking? Well, I am your guy! I don't really know WHAT I'll look like when I grow up, but I do know that I am CUTE--because everyone tells me so! And I love everyone! Big people, little people, little dogs, big dogs and those GIANT dogs who eat grass and whinny. I'm not afraid of anything...well, except maybe the vacuum cleaner.
I've been in my foster home for a week, and I'm getting really good at going outside to go potty. I also like sleeping in my crate, and pretty soon I'll be able to sleep for the whole night. My foster mom likes to put me on this long leash thing, and I carry it in my mouth and prance when we go explore the neighborhood. She tells me I'm very smart, because I've learned how to sit and come when she calls me. I like to pounce on my toys, pull on my foster brother's tail, and fall asleep in the closest lap when I'm tired. I'm looking for someone to love me and spend time with me! And I guess also teach me all the big stuff, like what not to chew on. I didn't feel very good when SCGSR rescued me, but I'm getting better every day, and I can't wait to meet my new family! Is it you?

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.
