What a wonderful week! Another successful 61st Street Kennel adoption will be doing the honors today by the name of JET! Looking stately and happy in this picture taken by his guardians at the Southern California Retriever Rescue, he would like to say THANKS!
JET’s first THANK YOU goes out to the wonderful people at NATURAL BALANCE Pet Foods who donated dog food to us. Feeding 25+ dogs is not a joke on the rescue’s wallet so we’re always happy to receive the support of Pet Food companies like Natural Balance.
Jet would now like to also thank BEST FRIENDS – LA Programs for the generous donation of treats, dog food and toys! And of course their wonderful volunteer, Gayle Alexander for dropping them off to the kennels…the dogs loved everything!
And JET gives final thanks to his adoption rescue –
for finding him a new home!
DDR pulled him out of the 61st Street Kennels and this is
what he looked like then….
SC Golden Retriever Rescue took him in and started the healing process for Jet…so he could rest and rejuvenate…

Description: WANTED… comfortable lap. My name is Jet and I am a gorgeous Flat Coated Retriever and about a year and a half old. I am loving life here in foster care and hope to find a furever home with the same amenities, a lap, food and a ball. Just a week ago I lived in pretty bad conditions with a hundred dogs, I had ticks and was filthy and hungry. Thankfully I was removed by the authorities and my luck continued when I ended up on this couch. I haven’t had to fight for food or love since. I am house trained, really like other dogs and would do anything to please you. To meet me please contact …
And here is! Adopted! With his new family…
FROM LORI:
Check out the beautiful photo of Jet who was adopted last night. We rescued him from the 61st street kennel where he was going literally insane from lack of human contact and the constant fence fighting from the pit bull family in the run next to him and the Chow Chow that he was kenneled with. Matted and filthy, this poor boy was also starving to death. He came into South Central Stray Rescue as a victim of foreclosure in South LA, he had a family who loved him and didn’t want to take him to the South LA shelter so they dropped him off at the 61st kennel where he had little water and food, no shelter and looked like he had tears in eyes every time, we the volunteers who were trying our best to get the dogs out would leave. That Saturday we got him out, he was so full of happiness. Thank you to everyone who helped get 42 dogs out of this overcrowded kennel. Jet thanks us all too!
…and here’s Jet chiming in with his big smile!
Bye Jet!!! Good luck in your new home!
