Archie
Archie is a 7-year-old French Bulldog with a big personality and an even bigger love for toys! This silly boy is always up for a game of fetch and knows how to keep the smiles coming. Archie walks nicely on leash, gets along well with other dogs, and is crate trained. He is looking for a family who can give him the love, playtime, and companionship he deserves.
If you’re searching for a fun-loving, goofy companion who will brighten your days and keep you laughing, look no further! Archie might just be your perfect match!
Murphy
Meet Murphy, a 5-year-old Maltese/Terrier mix looking for a very special home.
Murphy’s story is a heartbreaking one. He was found in Bakersfield about a year ago, and from what we understand, he has spent most of that time living isolated in a backyard with very little human interaction. Because of this, Murphy is extremely fearful and unsure of the world around him. When picked up, his whole body stiffens — almost as if he turns to stone.
Murphy is not the kind of dog who will immediately jump into your lap or shower you with affection. He needs a calm, patient person who understands that trust may take a long time, and who is willing to love him simply for who he is. His ideal home would be quiet, predictable, and low-pressure — a place where he can finally feel safe.
What Murphy truly needs is someone with a kind heart who isn’t expecting the “perfect” dog, but instead wants to give a deserving soul a peaceful and compassionate life. Even if he never becomes cuddly or outgoing, he still deserves comfort, safety, and love.
Could you be the person willing to give Murphy the second chance he’s never had?
Hachi
Meet Hachi — a sweet 10-year-old Shiba Inu with plenty of love and life left to share. Hachi is a gentle, affectionate girl who absolutely loves booty scratches and being close to her people. She has spent her whole life going to doggy daycare, so she does wonderfully with other dogs and would likely enjoy having canine companions in her new home.
Sadly, Hachi’s elderly owners are no longer able to care for her, and she is now looking for a loving retirement home where she can relax, be adored, and enjoy her golden years.
Hachi is in good overall health for her age. She does have some age-related disc disease, which gives her an adorable wobbly “drunk walk,” but it doesn’t stop her from enjoying life. She still has plenty of spirit, affection, and companionship to offer.
If you’re looking for a loyal, loving senior dog with a sweet personality and a heart full of love, Hachi may be the perfect addition to your family.
Soleil
Soleil is a 3-year-old mama who was found surviving in the Bakersfield orchards with her litter of puppies. With the help of another rescue, she raised her babies to safety, and one by one they all found loving homes. Sadly, after weeks of trying, mama Soleil was still waiting for hers. That’s when we were asked to take her in.
When Soleil first arrived, she was very scared and unsure of her new surroundings. We gave her the time and space she needed, and slowly she began to trust us—showing gentle affection as she realized she was finally safe.
Soleil is the kind of dog who needs a little extra time to feel secure in a new environment. She would do best with a patient adopter who can set up a quiet playpen or safe space for her to decompress and adjust during her first few weeks at home. Once she feels safe, Soleil’s sweet and gentle personality begins to shine through.
