I am Jojo, I am a Terrier/Lhasa perhaps? I am two years old about 18 lbs and yes, I do look like a stuffed toy. But what I am is a loving playful buddy who lives to PAR-TEE!!!! So come meet me and know what it is to be the center of a universe, mine!
 
Hello Dahlink! I am Natasha, I am a Cairn Terrier about 2 years old and would love to have long talks with you about travel ( to the park ), fine dining ( liver snacks ect.) couture clothing ( I have my own sweaters!) and of course politics, whether Bassett Obama, John McCairn, Hillary Cocker, Mike HuckelberryHound,
I'm still undecided!
 
Top of the morn'n to ya! We're Reilly ( I'm a Yorkie ) and my buddy Bailey ( he's a Maltese) and we sorry to say that we've found ourselves orphaned. We had a cozy life, with a splendid little old lady, our Mum, but the angels called her home to heaven which left us here on God's good earth homeless and forlorn. We're proper gents, housebroken, good with the wee ones, and would love to stay together in a new situation. So if you can find it in your heart to give us hearth and home we'd be most grateful!
 
What kind of person dumps their 10 year old dog that they've had since a puppy at the pound? A ^%$&!!!!)(*&###@***!!! that's what kind! Sorry, just had to vent. I'm Oscar and I really didn't see it coming. Oh sure, I got out of the yard and ran around the neighborhood a few times, but seeing as I can't open a locked gate on my own I kinda think the humans ( you know, the "smart" ones) could've made sure the gate WAS actually locked? Anyway, I got dumped. The wife blamed the husband, jeez, I hope he doesn't find her out wandering the neighborhood otherwise... THE PEOPLE POUND!!! Is there such a thing? There should be! For uncaring, badly behaving people! Ok, I'm sorry, I'm just so
hurt. Its hard for a 10 year old no-particular-breed dog to find a home. I am healthy, happy, like other dogs, housebroken, gosh I'd make your morning coffee if I knew how! So if you are that special kind of angel that really roots for the underdog, please call me....I got a bum wrap!
 
I'm Percy! What's your name? Do you wanna play tag? Do you wanna go for a run? Do you wanna split a treat? Do you wanna chase a ball? Huh? huh? Do you have your own home?.... I don't.
I'd like to come home with you and we could have so much fun!!!! I am a 4 month old Staffie mix and I love everybody! Do you have a dog already that needs a buddy? That's Me!
 
A big shout out to y'all! I am Bravo, I am a 1 1/2 yr. old  Lab/Staff mix, born deaf but with the heart of a kitten! I love kids, other dogs, people, Democrats, Republicans, and Independents! I am a very sweet natured dog, I was raised with a 2 year old child just luv luv luv the little ones! If you have a dog that needs company ( and you'd like to tire out a bit... I mean that needs exercise!) I'm your guy!
 
Look at us! We're Shay and Sela! We're Choxies! Doxie/Chihuahua mixes! We're so cute and cuddly that we are irresistible! We're only 12 weeks old, paper trained, love everyone, speak french and play the piano! Ok...the french and piano bit is not true, but everything else IS! Happiness is a warm puppy! Lots of work, at first, but we are really good babies, very gentle natured. C'mon down and visit us, we'll even let  you play with our squeakies!
 
Shazam! I am Zena the warrior Princess! I am a 7lbs of squeaky toy conquering Chihuahua! Join my band of loyal followers as we wage war on marauding squirrels and banish them from our domain ( or yard ). Let your lap be my throne, I will allow you to sleep in my bed ( Yes, the bed you previously believed to be yours alone). Let us feast upon whatever your having for dinner and howl at the moon together! Let your
inner canine come out to play!!!!
 
Howdy I'm Hospitable Hank! I'm a bubbly 7 year old Cocker mix about 35 bls, and I would be very happy to be yours!
You know most people want a puppy, a rug chew'n, piddle on the carpet, cry when you're not there, puppy. But I can tell you're smarter than that. You know the joy of a mellower mutt, ( I'm hard of hearing so I don't react to outside noise)  so gimme a call! I've got plenty of pep, but down a notch from puppy crazy!
 
 
Delightful Dutiful Delilah here for you! I am a mature Brindle Pit/Lab mix about 50lbs. I am clean and quiet and happiest doing whatever you want to do, I don't need other dogs for company, I would be fine and dandy in an apartment or house. I'm pretty low maintenance as far as girlfriends go!

 

 
 
 
Hello, I'm Phoebe. I am a 9 lbs Terrier/Chihuahua mix about 2 years old. I would like to view the world from your lap while sharing your morning bagel. How about it? If you are looking for a best girlfriend I am definitely it. I am an excellent listener, I am always on your side, and did I mention I'd be happy to share meals with you?

 

 
 
 
I am a tiny guy with a BIG personality, I'm Elf, I am a one year old male Chihuahua weighing in at about 4bls. I love to play and MUST sleep on your bed under the covers, that's a deal breaker! I like other dogs, and every person I've ever met, if you want a constant companion I'm your canine!
 
 
Sally - A big shout out to all my little dog loving pals! Do you have a dog that needs a friend? Do you need a buddy? I am so much fun! Honest! Come meet me, I'll show you around The Amanda Foundation, oh yeah, I'm a big cheese around here, I know everybody, everybody knows me, you want some extra
snacks? I gotta friend who'll set you up! I'm about 3 yrs old, 12 lbs and love a party...and just like Brittany! ( I don't wear panties either! )


I'm Chester Chow, I love kids and people I know. I am housebroken, and a calm sort. I am looking for a person or family who might have had a Chow ( or Chow mix) and knows what good buddies we are! Please call me, as you know, Chows are such devoted doggies...my friends at Amanda are very nice but I need my own family!

Jeez whadda have to do to get adopted? I keep seeing other small dogs like me go home with new families...yeah, they are younger...yeah. Ok, so that's it, even though I'm pretty low matience, and in good health because I'm around 9 years old that makes me less adoptable??? That sucks! My name is Frankie, and if you're smarter enough to know mature means mellow, call me!

 

Oh its been a Rocky road for me! I am a mature gent just looking for a person(s) to call my own. I had a home for a long time and got turfed when the "New Puppy!!!" arrived...yep, I heard them," We don't really need two dogs"....so I got dumped. Well I'm moving on! I get along with younger doggies, love my daily walks but would also be happy to sit at the feet of someone my own age, do you love Glenn Miller music? remember when gas was 99 cents a gallon? long for the Johnny Carson show? Then call me, we've got lots to chat about.

Chuck Chihuahua giv'in you the 411, the low down on me...'cause I'm low to the ground and kinda down, since I don't have my own person. I prefer adult people. I'm all grown up myself, about 5 years old, and around 8 lbs. I prefer to be your only canine companion. Do you see a place next to you on the sofa? That's for me!!!
" Good Day Milady! I say that, because I prefer the ladies. I am Stanley McStudly, of course I am neutered but that does not change the debonair, savoir faire of a true gentleman. No, not a bit. I am a 4 year old mostly Chihuahua, and I would like to woo you with couplets from the Bard! Music by the Masters! And of course, snausages!!! Yes! Nothing but the best for YOU my pet! So if you are looking for a committed relationship with a masterful Mister, you have only to say the word... STANLEY!!!
Freckles - I'm Freckles, I am a four year old Dalmatian , well trained and very very affectionate. I am mostly deaf but obey hand signals because I am very, very smart. I would be best for an adult home with someone who would like a dog who makes a great shadow. 310.278.2935.
I'm Ranger, I'm about 3 years old and mostly Shepherd. I am a friendly sort, and if you've ever shared your life with a Shepherd you just KNOW I love to learn! I like other dogs, and I'm big on hugs, given and received. I was born with one blind eye, but it doesn't slow me down a bit! Honest! ....I know some people
don't want a "factory second" doggie, but just give me a chance, I show you that I'm a "champion" when it comes to being your best buddy!
 
Pure Patrone in quality! I am Tequila! Si! I know what its like to loose at love, I got dumped! But my Latin soul does not accept defeat in romance! I am a sophisticated Chihuahua under 5 lbs, what do you think? You know, YOU are looking very good!
My name is HOPE, I am a Chocolate Lab/Staff mix. I was found by an Amanda volunteer on Hope street here in L.A.. I had no home, I was hungry, scrawny , I had open sores on my weak body, I had almost given up. But then something wonderful happened, because of people like you! Your donations allowed me to end up at the Amanda Foundation. They have nursed me back to health and now I am ready to go home with you! I HOPE you want me! I'm HOPE!
 
Dog Adoption Procedure:

Please call The Amanda Foundation at (310) 278-2935 to make an appointment to see      one of our dogs. It is important that we have the opportunity to talk with you about what you are   looking for in a canine companion. Also by speaking with you we can give you much more information about the dogs on our site.  We have many more orphans that are not on the   website and we can tell you about them as well. Some of  our dogs are in foster homes and    need to be brought to us for adoption interviews. We are open 7 days a week, 365 days a       year and remember, we show our pals by appointment only.
