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!

Marvin
Howdy people! My name is Marvin and I am a 5 foot long adult Ball Python with a great attitude. I was found as a stray and taken to animal control where I hung out until the San Diego Animal Control's annual Paws & Claws event, when SCGSR thought "outstide the crate" and rescued me!
I'm a pretty easy guy as pets go. All I need is a heat lamp and someplace to stretch out, and maybe a swimming pool. SCGSR gave me a dog bowl as a pool so I am hoping to be adopted soon and go more upscale - not that I don't appreciate the pool but - well, it kind of smells like puppies. Also I could do without my foster mom's screeching when I get my weekly meals and if you know snakes, you know what I'm talking about.
My name is Marvin because I have little space alien faces all over my back and they reminded SCGSR volunteers of Marvin the Martian. Forgive us Walt Disney for infringing on your patents by posting Marvin's picture below - its for a good cause.
If you have experience with reptiles and are interesting in adopting me, please email socalrescue@gmail.com for more information! Thanksssssssss for reading my ssssstory!

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.
