AMANDA
Amanda is 4-5 year old and is about 35 lbs. She is spayed and current on all vaccinations. She is a very petite and friendly pit bull terrier. She has had a very hard life. Her original owner, a taxi driver, lost his home, and he had no choice but to keep her in his taxi and drive her around with the passengers he picked up. This worked until someone complained to the cab company. He found a neighbor in Compton with a yard who already had 15 dogs on her property. This was ok for a few weeks until Animal Control mandated that she get rid of 12 dogs, Amanda being one of the dogs.
Off she went to a poorly run kennel where she was warehoused in a tiny crate with hardly any food and dirty water. She was attacked by other dogs at this facility and as a result, suffered bite wounds to her face and muzzle. She is definitely not a fighter but had to fight for food and water at this kennel. But don’t worry, Amanda is sweet sweet sweet and she did not let this bad place change the lovely personality that she has. Animal Control began investigate the kennel and they were mandated to reduce their numbers; this is where Downtown Dog Rescue came in.
Amanda was rescued because she had no chance of a good life if we didn’t take her. Emaciated, full of fleas, a bad eye that is still being treated, she is so grateful to have food, water, a blanket and a dog house every night to sleep in. Slowly, we are teaching her to walk on a leash and allowing her to enjoy her time with our dog pack. Please consider adopting or even fostering to adopt sweet Amanda who has been to hell and back. If you are interested in meeting or adopting OR EVEN FOSTERING Amanda, please phone Sandy at: 818-407-4145 or complete an APPLICATION
Amanda is up-to-date with routine shots, house trained and spayed/neutered
MEDIRA
We rescued Medira on her very last hour at the South LA shelter. She was red listed, set to be euthanized when we got the call, come and get her within the hour or she is going to die. We also rescued her sister, Aragon who has been adopted. This girl, like her sister, is VERY playful with other dogs. She would make a great off leash type of dog. She loves to chase and play hard. If you have another dog who is bored, looking for some fun, consider Medira. She had the mind of a Jack Russell and the athletism of a pit bull terrier, WOW, what a combo! This dog is crate trained, rides nicely in the car and is ready to go to her forever home now. Call us at 818-407-4145 or complete an APPLICATION.
