Bali was adopted in July 2024 and her adoptive dad shared this "pawsome" update about her:
Bali is doing amazing she is rather spoiled. LOL! So far we have been to dog beach and multiple dog parks in East County and downtown San Diego. Sometimes she stays downtown with Giuliana. She gets plenty of walks in due to how active Giuliana is on a daily basis. When she’s at my house we usually do Lindo Lake or walk around Lakeside if it’s not too hot. She is acclimated nicely. She still needs training as she still a puppy, but all in all she’s a great dog and we are so happy that we adopted her. Thank you for checking in.
Buttercup has waited a long time for her perfect forever home. She was adopted in May 2024 and we are very pleased to hear she is doing so well with her adoptive family! Here is what her adoptive mom has to say about her:
"Buttercup is doing well! We have training with Hot Dog on a Leash every other week. She's doing great with her recall and we are working on her confidence. She has been going on a lot of adventures with me!"
Ash (fka Borneo) was adopted in March 2024. He joined an amazing family that has adopted from ARWOB in the past. We ADORE repeat adopters! He loves his older fur sister Roxy (fka Jenny) who was adopted from ARWOB in September 2014. He is also best buds with his human brother Jax! Here is what his adoptive mom has to say about him:
"Borneo is doing great! He goes by Ash now and loves playing with his older fur sister Roxy (another ARWOB alum) and his human brother Jax. We didn't do any formal training with him, but we have been working on a lot of socialization and manners with him. He is very good at sitting for a treat in just about any situation. He is a super goofy boy and an expert at finding all the comfy sleeping spots."
Bella was adopted in January 2024 and her adoptive dad sent us a cute "pupdate" about her:
"Bella is awesome. She is bonding greatly with both of us now. You will see how rough she has it in the attached photos. LOL! We had to take in her daughter and 2 grandchildren for a couple months so Bella has had to learn to be around children. That's going good. She is excellent on the leash. Without the leash, she stays right beside me. In a controlled environment though. Not ready to try it out of that yet. No rush. She is still skiddish around others, especially men, but my stepdad and brother in law are patiently working to gain her trust. Because of my Mom, we take the pups with us to see her and give them a break from the kids, here and there. She travels very well. Last, she, sort of, found her bark. We had a possum on the back wall a couple of weeks ago. It was a staring contest, up until the possum moved on down the wall to the neighbors yards. Then she felt safe enough to bark at it at that time. LOL! It was the "big brave watchdog" then. It was cute."
Maggie (fka Binky) was adopted in January 2024. Her adoptive mom shared this "pupdate" with us:
"Our pup Maggie (former Binky) is doing great. We love her so much. Maggie has truly been a blessing in our lives. In February we unexpectedly lost our previous rescue dog, Chewey he was only 7 years old. It was very traumatic for us as he was our very first furbaby. I am so thankful and grateful we adopted Maggie when we did in January and that she got to know our previous pup Chewey for a bit. They got along and played well together. We miss him a lot but Maggie has been our saving grace. I couldn’t imagine getting through this tragic event without her by our sides. She has been quite a comfort for myself and fiancee as we process our grief. It always feel likes Maggie was sent to us at the perfect timing because to be honest after losing Chewey I think it would have taken me a lot longer to adopt another dog and I don’t know how I would feel about coming home to a quiet and dog less house. I was starting to shop around for dog training places. I actually would possibly like to have her to the AKC puppy/ good dog training classes. I think Maggie would be an excellent therapy dog. I want to try and do that with her. I teach children with special needs so I think it would be cool if Maggie could possibly become a therapy dog. She is very playful and smart and seems treat motivated. I have taught her sit and shake so far. Her leash skills are getting better. We have been on some walks to the park and she has been great with kids and meeting other dogs. We are so thankful and grateful to have adopted Maggie! She is the best little girl. We love her so much."
