Macie (formerly May)
Macie and her sister Maggie were smuggled across the border from Mexico to San Diego to be sold for profit. They were only 6 weeks old and were confiscated by Animal Control. Puppies should never be separated from their mother before 8 weeks – and 12 is even better – this is a time they develop crucial socialization.
They arrived at SCGSR needing treatment for all the things clean puppies don’t get, coccidia, giardia, fleas, worms. These little girls were fighters and soon growing like gangbusters. Macie was recently adopted to a three-time SCGSR adopting family and is living the great life in Southern Oregon, were we know she’ll thrive!

Ruby, now Cali, came to SCGSR as an injured puppy. Now healthy and happy, she’s found the most perfect forever home in mid-2017!

Adopted 10.28.17, gorgeous, AKC Kodiak has found himself the perfect forever home. We are so happy for you, Kodi!
Marina, now Scarlett!
Scarlett and Levi have only recently met, but they’re already family! Adopted on 3.26.17, Scarlett (formerly named Marina) is already adored by her new family. You can find Scarlett and Levi on instagram at @scarlettandlevi!
Gracie
Cassie
Titan enjoys her company and they have become a very sweet couple.
Most days she gets a couple of walks and has even lost a few pounds.
She is great with company and everyone loves our dogs, especially us.
Titan picked a winner!!
Maisy
Maisy was abandoned on the side of a freeway on-ramp. She and her sister were tiny puppies, most likely Boxer mixes. Obviously dumped, covered with fleas and starving, Maisy was taken under SCGSR’s wing. She soon landed herself an incredible home where she couldn’t be more loved! Here she is, all grown up!
Kona
Things are going great with Kona, we love her to pieces! She seems to love us too! She runs from room to room checking on all of us and there is always someone to play ball with. When we go on our walks, Kona constanly looks back making sure we are all there, it is so cute! The other morning the two small dogs were laying with me on the sofa so Kona felt left out and climbed right up, i didnt have the heart to tell her shes not a lap dog! She is no longer petrified of the cats, but LOVES the kitten. She and Charlie are getting along really well(Charlie is still Alfa, but Kona is very Submisssive).
Cooper – formally known as Hutch
Hi – remember me – I’m Hutch. But my foster mom adopted me and now she calls me “Cooper”. She tested a bunch of names out on me and I liked Cooper the best cause I come running when she calls me. We went on a road trip to Sandpoint, Idaho. I got to spend a couple nights in a motel and everyone that saw me remarked on how handsome I am. When we got here I went shopping with my mom and I helped her pick out a spa so I had my picture taken in front of it. There’s another picture of me in my San Diego yard. Mom’s trying to get me to chase that funny yellow ball. I’ve never played with toys before, but I’m figuring it out. In another picture I’m just looking up at mom telling her how much I love her.
KALI
Kali is doing amazing! We love her SO much. She’s nearly perfect!
She just has the BEST personality- is so sweet, trusting, obedient, and pleasing. Since I work from home, I’m with her most of the day. She cries a little when we leave, but aside from that, hasn’t chewed a thing, rarely barks, pees on command…and is a lover!

Its with much love that we sent our sweet Momma dog Peri off to her beautiful new digs, with a loving family and a nice doggie companion. Saving you was a privilege, cutie pie!
Lucy – Adopted summer 2011.
Just an update on Lucy that we adopted in summer 2011.
Can’t believe how fast the time flies. Lucy is such a great member of our family. Recently our cat Cosmo passed away. Cosmo took almost a year to learn to “tolerate” Lucy in the house. And in the end Lucy and Cosmo got along pretty well.
Since Cosmo’s passing we adopted 3 kittens and they have become very close friends with Lucy. The cats and Lucy nap together and spend time together. She lets the cats share her water bowl.
Gunner!
Gunner and his dad visited us at our adoption event. This puppy turned out so beautiful and nice as can be. His original owners were not familiar with German Shepherds and their energy, and the husband was short tempered with Gunner and the wife was worried he would be hurt. Socalrescue stepped in and then the magic – Shelby found Gunner and gave him a happy home. Gunner now runs miles a day with his dad – and he’s a good boy!
Titan Vanselow
Titan was turned in to SCGSR with a terrible skin condition and wounds from living as a young puppy with two grown wolves in an enclosure. Nursed back to health by SCGSR volunteers Lisa and Chris, Titan quickly became a loved member of their household. And look how handsome he is today!
Jasmine (formerly Thistle)
A tennis ball between my paws, a pool to swim in, a mom and dad who love me. Its all I ever wanted. Thanks SCGSR supporters for standing by me while I found my forever home!
Claire (formerly Sweetie)
Our lovely little Claire found herself alone in the shelter, and needing bilateral hip surgery. SCGSR to the rescue! And look at her now, so well-loved.
Zoey goes to her forever home – with Dexter!
When Dexter’s family came back to us for a second dog – Zoey won everyone’s hearts.
Jasmine (with Betty)
Jasmine worked her way into the hearts of her foster mom and dad, and also into the decision maker’s heart: Betty!
Cody
Cody with mom Diana. He gets to travel with his parents and may just be the most photographed dog in the West – he’s handsome and charming enough to deserve the title!
