Hi: I’m Thumper, a shy 7-year-old Miniature Poodle X that was found on a trail in Simi Valley. I was adopted from Animal Services by someone who unfortunately discovered he was allergic to me.

I’m super sweet and just want to cuddle all the time with my people. I will stick to you like glue, especially on walks. I’m house-trained and seem to know a few commands like sit, stay and come here.

I am very shy around other dogs and cats, but not aggressive. I was found with a stray Pug who was my best bud––so I’ll warm up to furry friends if I can get to know them gradually.

People call me Thumper because my tail shakes very vigorously, thumping loudly against any walls, floors and surfaces nearby.

If you’re interested in meeting me, please fill out an online application.

Hi: I’m Coco, a cute and affectionate 4-year-old Terrier X who is in need of a new home because I don’t get along with the smaller dog in the home.

I’m active and enjoy going for walks, jogging alongside a bicycle and snuggling with people. I love people, but I’m wary of children. I’d do best in an adult only home or possibly a home with older teenagers. I need a home with no small dogs/animals as I have a high prey drive. I’ve had formal training and know basic commands. I mostly walk well on leash except when I come across another dog. I do jump up to greet people which I need to work on not doing.

Hi: I’m Annie, a sweet and beautiful 7-year-old Terrier mix who would love to find my home with a lot of love. I’m house broken and I have good manners. In the beginning I didn’t want to be left alone. I need to know this is a secure home before I can relax and feel comfortable. I love to lay next to you on your couch while we watch tv. 15-30 min walks twice a day is perfect for me. I sleep in my foster mom’s bed with another little dog.

The reason my foster mom can’t keep me is because she travels between the US and Europe too often. My foster mom loves me dearly and wants me to have the best home. If you want to love me I will love you back unconditionally. My foster mom says I am the sweetest in the world.

Hi: I’m Hanzi (Hans for short), a very high-energy and happy almost 2 year old Parson Russell Terrier / Pomeranian X who is in need of a new home as my mom broke her hip and can no longer care for me.

When I came to C.A.R.L. I was very dog reactive and if given the chance I would sometimes redirect on my handler. Thankfully funds were raised and I was able to attend a board and train facility to help me work on this.

I have learned a lot during my time with my trainer and I’m ready for my new home. My trainer recommends a home with plenty of structure and with someone who is able to prioritize my needs. I need multiple hours of activity daily in order to meet my energy level.

If you can give me the structured environment and exercise I need to thrive, please fill out an online application to meet me.

Hi: I’m Milo, a very sweet almost 8 year old Maltese in need of a new home as my owners can no longer afford my medical care for skin allergies and sometimes I get ear and eye infections.

I’m taking Prednisone every other day and need a medicated bath at least once a week to help with my skin allergies. It was also recommended that Genteal brand eye ointment be put in both my eyes twice a day.

I’m good with other dogs and cats. I’ve been around children as young as 8 months old and did fine. I enjoy walks, a comfy lap, children, older people and watching tv next to someone.

Hi: I’m Princessa, a 11/2-year-old beautiful Pit Bull / Shepherd X in need of a new home as my owners moved and I couldn’t go too. I’d make a great family dog as I’m good with children, other dogs, and cats too. I enjoy playing with balls and toys. I know some basic commands sit and stay and would be more than happy to learn more.

I know my breed gets a bad rap. Hopefully you’ll give me a chance and fill out an online application to meet me. Canine Adoption and Rescue League C.A.R.L. CARL Adoption Center-call 644-7387 for more information.


Meet Jackson (10), Stacey (13) & Tessie (7), bonded triplets! They were surrendered due to housing issues. These older bunnies need a quiet place where they can call their own. Three rabbits are really no different than adopting 2 or even 1. Adopting multiple bunnies come with advantages: they play and groom each other, so you won’t have to worry about them being lonely and there won’t be too much of a need for them to be groomed! If you’re interested in adopting an indoor house rabbit like these little ones, please contact the VCAS Bunny Brigade at [email protected].

Hi: I’m Mystic, a handsome almost 1 1/2 year old pocket Chow and I’m Nebula, a beautiful almost 2 year old pocket Chow.  We are in need of a new home together as our owners are too busy with their business to give us the attention we are used to having. We’re both dog and people friendly and love attention.  It’s unknown if we would get along with children or cats.

Mystic: I walk well but pull a bit. I’ll steal your heart as I’m so lovable and enjoy being pet. I will enjoy a more quiet home since the kennel environment is getting to me.

Nebula: A real sweetheart and smaller than Mystic. I’m not leash trained but I’m getting there. I’m a fast learner with commands such as sit and place.

We love each other so must be adopted together. We will not be separated. If you’re not looking for two dogs, then please consider another CARL dog up for adoption.

Hi: I’m Mishka (means mouse), a beautiful 5 ½ year old German Shepherd X in need of a new home as my elderly owner needs major surgery and can no longer care for me.

I enjoy treats and running around. I’m nervous and bark at new people and need a little time to get to know you. Once I do I’m sweet, friendly and energetic. I’m smart and will sit for those I know.

I’m good with other dogs (I used to live with one before she passed away from old age.) and children. I have chased cats before, but just to play. I need a fence that is at least 5 feet tall. I will sometimes try to follow when you leave.

Hi: I’m Oakley, a playful 6 year old Golden Retriever / Chow mix who is in need of a new home. My original owner passed away and then I was rescued by my current owners. I dart out open doors and windows and the elderly person in the home can’t close the door fast enough. I also nip and/or show my teeth when I’ve had enough pets and/or attention. I don’t care to be left alone and I’m afraid of loud noises and take CBD for anxiety.

I enjoy walks and playing outside. I’d do best in a quiet adult only home or a home with respectful teenagers. I get along with other dogs, but it’s unknown how I’d do with cats, although I did chase one once.

Hi: I’m Rascal, a handsome Shepherd X in need of a new home. I was rescued from a shelter in LA and I’m thankful to be given a second chance at finding my forever home.

I’m shy and will not come up to you right away. It will take a couple of visits to gain my trust. The CARL volunteers are working with me daily and I’ve shown progress. I walk great on leash and volunteers enjoy taking me out. I enjoy going on the walks too and playing with my ball. I’ve recently begun giving trust to have my head pet as deep down I want to be loved. I just need to be shown I don’t have to be afraid.

I’m more comfortable with females than males. I’ve had several slow introductions to males and although I start to be ok, I still have days where I take a step back and the slow introduction process needs to be somewhat started again.
The best home for me is in a quiet adult only home with someone patient and loving If you’re interested in meeting me, please fill out an online application for review.

Opie is a mild-mannered 9-year-old German Shepherd. He’s super sweet and not reactive to other dogs. So, if you have another dog, they would likely get along. He came in with some skin issues, but with the help of our top-notch veterinary team, he is doing much better and his fur is growing back nicely.
