This Is Chilao, one of the doggies I walk during the week. She is thirteen years old and is a rescue. She used to be a racing doggy until she was four- which is when most racing doggies retire. Chilao is very gentle, sweet and has a very deep soul.
I really love her and enjoy our time together. Baby Gurl :)

Dachshund Rescue
One day in downtown la
A few weeks back Downey Shelter was invited to Google to host adoptions and to also take portraits of the Google employees dogs for a donation that goes back to helping the Downey pups. It was a success! Three adoptions happened, more people learned about adopting potential pets from Downey and Joan and I ( another Downey volunteer photographer) got to meet and photograph some Google employees and their best buds.
And yes, the Google office in Venice is as cool as you hear, catered lunches, a cafe, awesome work areas, really cool people and you can bring your dog to work- pawesome!!
Do you love Dachshunds? Do you love them so much you want to squeeze them? Well I have the solution for you! Adopt or foster your own Wiener Baby!!!
If you like what you see below, all these dogs are up for adoption, currently being fostered by awesome humans. If you can't commit, be one of the awesome humans, and foster!

You thought the South LA pups were adorbs, how about these nuggets?

So it's up to us humans to help them out and give them second chances.
So, don't be shy, try!

This past Friday I spent my morning taking photos of mostly larger doggies that are in need of some rescuing! They were all so cute in their own unique ways and I really hope through these pictures and the power of social media, they will get some attention and hopefully get into the loving homes they truly deserve.
I am going to try to go to the South LA shelter every Friday in the mornings to help photograph these babies and give them the best chance of surviving possible. Stay tuned...
The dogs below are available now at the South LA Animal Shelter.

I love my doggy clients. Especially when they're a couple. Little sausages!
I love pitbulls. They are sweet, smart and sassy. Pitbulls are also very strong and when under the wrong guidance can do some damage. Just like humans. But the biggest difference is dogs can't speak up if they don't like something, and after years of humans domesticating them, all they really want to do is please us, even if it's through pain.
I hope everyone in their lifetime can experience the joy of having or visiting with a pittie. They are one of the most mis-understood mammals out there. My heart breaks every time I hear somebody is scared, hates them or even worse, has done physical or emotional damage on this innocent breed.
Pitbulls and chihuahuas are the two most popular breeds in animal shelters. I hope that will end soon and people spay and neuter their dogs and also realize dogs are for life and what you put in the relationship, is what you get out.
In honor of all the pitbulls who have gave us humans unconditional love, I dedicate this Ben Harper song, "You found another lover", to all the babies who have passed or are looking for a second chance in life.
If interested in adopting a pitbull baby, here are a few who are now at the Baldwin Park Animal Shelter waiting for you!!

A4640061 Cali is loving one-year old female grey and white Staffordshire Bull Terrier puppy who was brought to the Baldwin Park shelter on October 5th. Weighing approximately forty pounds, this “pocket pittie” walks well on leash and appears to be housebroken. She has passed her shelter administered temperament test with flying colors. Cali is gently curious about other dogs and given her gentle and loving disposition, we think she would be a wonderful playmate for children. Cali will be an exceptional indoor companion for an individual, couple, or family living in a condo or single-family home.

Weighing approximately sixty-five pounds, she walks okay on leash and is most likely housebroken. She has passed her shelter given temperament test, and is non-reactive with other dogs. Kissy and affectionate, Diamond has a medium to high energy level, and would be an ideal pet and hiking companion for an active family living in a private home.

A4629651 Petunia is an affectionate eight week old brown female Pit Bull/Chihuahua mix puppy who was dumped at the Baldwin Park Shelter on September 8th by a backyard breeder, who was trying to make money by breeding pit bulls. Weighing eight pounds, we think this amazing puppy is going to grow to twenty pounds. Obviously she has had no training, but she is extremely food motivated – she’s quite the chow hound – and she’s being fostered by one of our volunteers and being raised with a litter of kittens! Petunia is going to make an outstanding indoor pet for an active family living in a private home.

A4644612 Moose is a ten month old grey female Pit Bull puppy who was found in Rosemead on October 20th and brought to the Baldwin Park Shelter. Weighing sixty-one pounds, this medium energy dog appears to have had some leash experience. Moose is a shelter staff and volunteer favorite who passed her shelter given temperament test with flying colors. She gets along with other dogs as long as she is given a bit of confidence. Although she is shy at first, she warms up quickly and becomes loving and affectionate especially after getting some belly rubs. Moose will be a great indoor pet for an individual or family with school-aged children living in a private home.

Weighing ten pounds and likely to grow to sixty pounds, she is just a puppy and has had no training whatsoever except at being cute! Pebbles is a classic puppy, affectionate, playful and cuddly and we would like to get her socialized and trained at an early age so she can grow up to be a model citizen and ambassador of her breed. Pebbles will make a sensational indoor pet and companion for an active family living in a private home.

A4644353 Cookie is an entertaining ten-month old fawn female Staffordshire terrier mix puppy whose owner abandoned her at the Baldwin Park shelter on October 19th because she did not get along with her former owner’s cats. Weighing forty-seven pounds, she could use some training, but she is smart and eager to please. Cookie is a natural comedienne and is guaranteed to bring a smile to your face with her enthusiastic greetings and somewhat goofy style of play. Her former owners reported that she gets along with small children and with other dogs; she aced her shelter-administered temperament test. Cookie will be a comical and loyal best friend to an individual, couple, or family living in a single-family home.
