IMPORTANT-SAFETY FIRST!
For the about dora games 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!

Demi
Demi is an awesome little girl, about 9 months old. Demi was turned into the county shelter with her littermates and her mom and dad. The family kept one puppy and abandonded the rest to their fate.

Little Demi was smaller than her littermates and had a visit with SCGSR's vet. It turned out she has megaesophagus. Megaesophagus is a condition where the muscles of the esophagus don't devlope properly and can't push food or water normally down to the stomach. Demi will need to be fed small meals three to four times a day and her food will need to be moistened. Our vet tells us that 40 percent of puppies with this condition grow out of it, and many can lead normal lives with proper feeding.

Demi is a gorgeous little girl, happy as a clam, very playful and has no idea anything is wrong. And if SCGSR has its way, she never will, because she'll go to a loving home who will take this small bit of extra effort to help her be healthy. Please contact us to learn more.

Please consider clicking on the orange button above to donate a small amount to help us care for these abandoned animals while we find them the most loving homes! Be a part of SCGSR's family and help save lives.

Please be sure to read the notes below if you are interested in adopting. And please be sure to consider adopting an adult dog, as puppies we know we're cute, but in only a few months we won't be babies anymore, and our adult friends need homes too.

  • 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.
