Malibu Adoptions Can Save These Lives

Four dogs are looking for new homes in Malibu.

Giordano: Don't let this pup die! Who can untie the Gordian knot for Giordano? This super sweet, gentle boy can't figure out where he is and why he's there. Those sad eyes are always questioning, seeking an answer.

Giordano is a mere pup at just one year old, a 49-pound puppy who hasn't had much joy in his life yet. He's very submissive with other dogs, letting them bully him and eat all the food at dinner time. And with people, he's an absolute angel, gentle and cuddly. He will do his best to curl up in your lap, though perhaps a leg will stick out here and there.

Please consider saving the life of this tender soul who has so much love to give. He will be your family's greatest love - please let him live! Adoption No. A1292306

Betsy: Photos don't do Betsy justice  --  though you get an idea about through that scruffy, creamy white coat and those button eyes. But, video is definitely her medium.

Betsy bounces so high on her little hind legs that you can't help but smile. And her tails wags non-stop when friends come by to visit. Two-year old Betsy is a little imp at 16 pounds. Adorable but upset that her owners dumped her at the shelter. She asks for proof that you won't do the same and requires a slow start initially. However, if you give her a treat or two, she'll soon be in your lap, showering you with kisses.

Betsy is searching for a special someone who will take her everywhere  --  except the shelter. Come meet her today and be ready to be charmed. Adoption #A1294544.

Daisy: Daisy, Daisy, give me your answer, please. Who could be lacka-daisy-ical about you? You're such a special girl. Daisy was turned into the shelter because she "escaped (Read: she didn't like her home and was seeking another one)." There's no doubt about that when you meet her. Timid, tentative. With pleading eyes looking up from a lowered head.  So willing to accept any crumb of attention.

It's heart-breaking to see a gentle dog in this state. Daisy seems to be about a year old and is a sturdy 55 pounds. Her coat is amazingly soft and she loves being brushed. Please say "Upsy-Daisy" and save her from the shelter today. This girl promises years of devotion. Adopt Daisy at No. A1294464

For more info please contact volunteer Andrea at email IveGoneToTheDogs@gmail.com, phone (323) 363-4909.  She's happy to meet you at the shelter.
