Update: TWINKIE WAS RESCUED by @showmeyourpittiesrescue and Maxwell was adopted!

Twinkie and Maxwell are scheduled to die at 8 am on Sunday 10/18 unless a foster or adopter steps up tonight. Their deadline has passed. This is their last chance to be noticed and make it out alive.

Twinkie #A2292863 is only 4. He arrived covered in wounds, still wearing his owner’s collar and tag. But no one showed up. Volunteers describe an affectionate, smart boy who is eager to bond.

Maxwell #A2284407 is just 1. His family surrendered him when they moved. He is still a goofy puppy who loves toys,splashing in the pool, and being with people.

Two young lives. Two boys who were failed by their owner. Both would thrive in a caring home without other dogs, where they can learn and decompress. 

If you can help, do not wait until the shelter opens at 11 am. Arrive at 8 am when staff gets there. Twinkie and Maxwell could be euthanized before the doors open.

Update: ADOPTED 
 

Maxwell #A2284407 won’t survive without a miracle at North Central Shelter in Los Angeles. Just 1 year old, this innocent baby boy desperately needs a foster or adopter by 4 pm on Saturday, October 17th, or he will be euthanized due to fear and stress in his cage. In July, Maxwell lost his home and family when they moved and said he couldn’t come along. Since then, he has been understandably sad, overwhelmed, and frustrated. Volunteers say Maxwell is an adorable, goofy puppy full of life and playful energy who adores toys and taking a dip in the pool. Likely undersocialized, he can be selective around other dogs and prefers the company of people. Maxwell deserves a devoted owner willing to help him become his best self through patience, training, and care. Please share his story today. Foster, adopt, or pledge toward his rescue before it’s too late. Maxwell is way too young to lose his chance at a happy future.

**Please contact the shelter directly with any questions or interest in helping. It’s best to visit in person since they rarely answer the phones.

Update: RESCUED BY @showmeyourpittiesrescue 

Twinkie #A2292863 was chosen to die at North Central Shelter in Los Angeles. This 4-year-old cutie will be euthanized if no one steps forward by Saturday, October 17th at 4 pm, because of a past he could not control. Found as a stray on September 4th in bad shape, Twinkie was microchipped and wearing a collar and tag, but his owner never came for him. Volunteers say he is an affectionate, smart, and eager-to-please boy who already knows some basic commands and is ready to bond with you. Twinkie’s body and face were covered in wounds when he arrived, and since the circumstances are unknown, he wears a muzzle during playgroups out of caution. Friendly but sometimes stiff and awkward with certain dogs, he would likely do best as the only pup in the home. Sadly, due to kennel stress, Twinkie was given a death sentence, and his time is quickly running out. Please consider fostering or adopting, pledging toward his rescue, and sharing his story everywhere so he can find the hero he desperately needs before it’s too late. Let Twinkie’s next chapter be a beautiful beginning, not a tragic goodbye.

RESCUED🎉🎉 Thank you @gonetothedogsrescue! Please honor pledges at their page. Follow @goodsittdogs also for updates!💗

🚨Puppy girl Nami needs her person NOW! Euth Alerted - needs safe exit by Thurs 10/15 EOD!🚨

At just 7 months old, Nami is still very much a puppy, but without a committed adopter or foster by this Thursday, she won’t get the chance to grow up! 💔
Please help this young girl find a person ASAP who will give her the care and support she deserves! Please Share! DM US if you can foster or have interest in adopting! 

Nami came to North Central shelter on Sept 6th as an owner surrender after a minor bite incident when one of the adults in her (previous) home tried to grab her from under a bed. Nami ran under the bed when they came to remove her from the bed. She had been nippy before, but broke skin that time. They also left notes sharing that Nami was friendly & outgoing, lived with another large husky dog and (many) children ages 1-14 years. 

While she was understandably timid at intake, Nami has blossomed in a few short weeks. In playgroups, she is social, soft, steerable, and “super playful in smaller gentle/dainty yard.” With volunteers Nami has shown her affectionate, friendly side and her love of treats! She already knows several commands- sit, down, and stay. Plus, she does the most heartwarming “sploot” when she relaxes💗

We are heartbroken that this sweet, young girl is facing this terrible ending. Nami deserves a true second chance to thrive- with a family who will give her time to acclimate and continue her training and socialization. Due to her history, we recommend a home without young children. Please act quickly to save Nami❣️

Update: RESCUED 

Nami #A2293233 is a puppy in urgent danger at North Central Shelter in Los Angeles. Just 7 months old, this gorgeous petite baby needs a foster or adopter by 4 pm on Thursday, October 15th, or she will die after the people she trusted left her behind. Nami’s owners got her at 3 months old, then dumped her 3 months later in September. They reported she was nippy with their children when they “do things she doesn’t like” and nipped the husband’s finger when he tried to grab her while she was hiding under a bed. Yet they also called her “friendly and outgoing” with strangers and “relaxed and playful” with other dogs. Instead of providing patience, support, and training, they walked away, like she didn’t matter. Volunteers describe Nami as a cute and smiley sweetheart who approaches for affection and leans in to be petted. Treat-motivated and eager to please, she already knows commands like “sit” and “down.” In playgroups, Nami is social, gentle, and excited to romp in the yard with her canine friends. She deserves the chance to learn and grow, but instead, she is facing death and quickly running out of time to make it out of here alive. Please don’t let Nami be failed again. Consider being a foster or adopter, share her story, or pledge support so a reputable rescue can step in. It would be utterly heartbreaking for her life to end when it has barely just begun.

**Please contact the shelter directly with any questions or interest in helping. It’s best to visit in person since they rarely answer the phones.
