(click on the images for larger pictures)

 

We're  Stevie & Sean, Shitzu/Terrier/Something-else-small 10 week old pups! Our mom is about 17lbs so that's probably

how big we will be. We are very good boys, paper trained, ball-loving, kiss-giving  babies looking to find a home with lots of love to give and receive!
 

 

 
 
 

Hello! I'm Tinky and I'm a 6 year old Maltese mix. I like people and other dogs, I'm housebroken and a pretty mellow guy. What I am not fond of is those short bald people who don't pay rent....otherwise known as "babies". No use for them. I was in a home with one, it cried all the time, pooped where ever it wanted,

and needed constant holding...looked like zero fun to me. Yep, I'm looking for a home without "rug rats". So if you appreciate a calmer environment I might be just the doggie match for you!
 
 
 
I go by Ginger and I am a mostly German Shorthaired Pointer. With my nose I can find a biscuit at a 100 paces, but I haven't been able to find a family of my own. I like other dogs, I'm playful and would be so grateful to have someone to love....maybe you?
 
 
We're Korrina's Kids! Karl & Katie! We're 9 weeks old and did you know that if you stand in your water bowl your feet get wet? We just learned that today! We already know how to give kisses, fetch our stuffed toys, and piddle on the paper!!!! Yes! at 9 weeks we are....almost....perfect with that! So if you are looking for a warm bundle of puppy love, we're here!
 
 
Yessah, I'm Luke, I'm a mellow man, about 7 years young. I'm a big 'ol Lab kinda mix breed dawg. I appreciate the Lord's green earth and don' need much, jus' a person to love and keep company. So if you're look'in to shoot the breeze while catching some tube, I'd be much obliged if you'd consider
letting me bunk in with ya!
 
 
I'm Lovely Luna, I am a year old Staffie and I am every bit the party girl! I would love to be your date from here on in. I'm a friendly sort with people and other dogs and would prefer an active lifestyle, although I also love to chill on the couch and catch a rental with you!
 
 
I go by "Mickey" I'm small like the famous Disney guy, and every bit as friendly, but seeing as I can't count on a world wide franchise to cover my kibble I really need somebody who needs me! I'm about a year old, only 9lbs, some kinda Terrier mix, and lots of fun!
 
 
Rufus Mc Ruffley here! I'm about 2 years old and about 12lbs of 12 kinds of Terrier all mixed together! I am a congenial gent with dogs, kids, and every adult I've encountered thus far! I am quite sure we will have lots in common, do call won't you?
 
 
Yaaaaaah! I'm Kira! I am a 16 veek old German Shepherd puppy und I am zo happy to learn stuff!!! Vadda  you vant to teach me? Fetch? Sit??? Hey I'm vey past that, how about you let me show you how to hike in the voods, appreciate nature! Zats it! Come! Bring lunch! Ve leaf in the morning, Yes?
 
 
Ok, calm down, yeah yeah, I know..." he looks just like a stuffed toy!!!!" Well I'm not, I'm Woody.  I am a 8 year old Terrier mix and I would like to be in a home that doesn't have any short humans that squeal things like, " he looks just like a stuffed toy!!!" ( I usually hear this just before they pull my ears or try to ride me) So if you have an adult home ( no kids ) I am your man!....uh, dog!
 
Ok, how's this for "sucks". I'm a twelve year old Cocker Spaniel, "Casey the Cocker" cute eh? Anyway, here I am living my life, loving my person, she has to go away, she's done it before, boards me while she's gone...and get this!!! DOESN'T COME BACK!!! No goodbye, no trying to find me a new home, no, "Jeez Casey I know you're a "mature" dog and it won't be easy for you"...just gone-o-, dust in the wind, zip, slam-bam-thank you M'am!!! ....I'll admit I'm more than a little hurt. But if you love Cockers and would like a well behaved gentle pal, please consider me. I would be ever so grateful!!! Any Cocker lovers out there?
 
 
Here's what happened, I swear! I am a 2 year old Rat Terrier, Korrina, about 15lbs. So I meet this guy, yes at a park! I know I know, anyway, we spend some, lets say "quality time" together, and all of a sudden I'm pregnant, his cell is disconnected and 60 days later its " Playtime with Puppies!". Crap! ( And lots of
it!!! there's 5 of 'em!) I've done my motherly duty ( and I have to say they are cute little tykes!) but my figure has returned, I'm 4 months older and a LOT wiser and ready for a new life....with  you? ( I'm spayed now by the way!)
 
 
Dija see "The 300?" That cool movie about the Spartans? Well I'm named after the hero "Leonides!!!" Yes, I am the leader of the pack, any pack! I am a 12 lbs 1 year old Terrier mix that will would love to be your leading man. I await your summons M'ilady! ( or M' Mister?, I'd roll with that too!)
 
My name is Baloo, I am an 11 year old Shepherd/lab mix. I had a home with 2 kids, but there was a divorce and I ended up at the pound. I am very well behaved, love kids, I like the company of
other dogs ( I really like my roommate Sierra, here at Amanda!). If you want a piece of cake dog that already minds her P's and Q's please consider me. Everyone here says I play like a puppy, I'm strong and in good health and would love to love you!
 
 
Gillespe's my name, being a totally fun Smooth Fox Terrier. Yeah, I'm smooth alright, I'd slide right into your heart and home if you let me.  I'm about 2 years old and ready to hit the hiking trail or chill on the couch next to you.
 
 
Yeah, that's right, I'm Spanky! And who are you callin' short??? I'm a Chihuahua/Terrier mix, about 10 lbs but what I lack in size I make up for in personality. I'm 2 years old, good with most other dogs, but would be happy to be the master of my own domain. That's right, just you and me Babe ( or Dude ) I'm such a party in a small package that you don't need to invite anyone else!
 
Please to meetcha! I'm Portia! I am a big puppy of a Shepherd/Akita mix. I am about 14 months old and about 80lbs. I think the best thing in the world is a great big hug! You can give me one or I'll be happy to give you one! I like other dogs, kisses, snacks, toys, walks, and did I mention hugs! Please call me! I know we have lots in common!
 
Hello to you! I am Simpka, I am small white dog, probably part Chihuahua part Terrier, I am very cute! I am maybe 2 years old and like other dogs and all people, perhaps you need such a dog as me? Call me, you'll like me I am very nice doggie!
 
 
Shazam! I am Zena the warrior Princess! I am a 7lbs of squeaky toy conquering Chihuahua! Join my band of loyal followers as we wage war on marauding squirrels and banish them from our domain ( or yard ). Let your lap be my throne, I will allow you to sleep in my bed ( Yes, the bed you previously believed to be yours alone). Let us feast upon whatever your having for dinner and howl at the moon together! Let your
inner canine come out to play!!!!
 
Sally - A big shout out to all my little dog loving pals! Do you have a dog that needs a friend? Do you need a buddy? I am so much fun! Honest! Come meet me, I'll show you around The Amanda Foundation, oh yeah, I'm a big cheese around here, I know everybody, everybody knows me, you want some extra
snacks? I gotta friend who'll set you up! I'm about 3 yrs old, 12 lbs and love a party...and just like Brittany! ( I don't wear panties either! )


I'm Chester Chow, I love kids and people I know. I am housebroken, and a calm sort. I am looking for a person or family who might have had a Chow ( or Chow mix) and knows what good buddies we are! Please call me, as you know, Chows are such devoted doggies...my friends at Amanda are very nice but I need my own family!

Jeez whadda have to do to get adopted? I keep seeing other small dogs like me go home with new families...yeah, they are younger...yeah. Ok, so that's it, even though I'm pretty low matience, and in good health because I'm around 9 years old that makes me less adoptable??? That sucks! My name is Frankie, and if you're smarter enough to know mature means mellow, call me!

 

Oh its been a Rocky road for me! I am a mature gent just looking for a person(s) to call my own. I had a home for a long time and got turfed when the "New Puppy!!!" arrived...yep, I heard them," We don't really need two dogs"....so I got dumped. Well I'm moving on! I get along with younger doggies, love my daily walks but would also be happy to sit at the feet of someone my own age, do you love Glenn Miller music? remember when gas was 99 cents a gallon? long for the Johnny Carson show? Then call me, we've got lots to chat about.

Chuck Chihuahua giv'in you the 411, the low down on me...'cause I'm low to the ground and kinda down, since I don't have my own person. I prefer adult people. I'm all grown up myself, about 5 years old, and around 8 lbs. I prefer to be your only canine companion. Do you see a place next to you on the sofa? That's for me!!!
" Good Day Milady! I say that, because I prefer the ladies. I am Stanley McStudly, of course I am neutered but that does not change the debonair, savoir faire of a true gentleman. No, not a bit. I am a 4 year old mostly Chihuahua, and I would like to woo you with couplets from the Bard! Music by the Masters! And of course, snausages!!! Yes! Nothing but the best for YOU my pet! So if you are looking for a committed relationship with a masterful Mister, you have only to say the word... STANLEY!!!
Freckles - I'm Freckles, I am a four year old Dalmatian , well trained and very very affectionate. I am mostly deaf but obey hand signals because I am very, very smart. I would be best for an adult home with someone who would like a dog who makes a great shadow. 310.278.2935.
I'm Ranger, I'm about 6 years old and mostly Shepherd. I am a friendly sort, and if you've ever shared your life with a Shepherd you just KNOW I love to learn! I like other dogs, and I'm big on hugs, given and received. I was born with one blind eye, but it doesn't slow me down a bit! Honest! ....I know some people
don't want a "factory second" doggie, but just give me a chance, I show you that I'm a "champion" when it comes to being your best buddy!
 
Pure Patrone in quality! I am Tequila! Si! I know what its like to loose at love, I got dumped! But my Latin soul does not accept defeat in romance! I am a sophisticated Chihuahua under 5 lbs, what do you think? You know, YOU are looking very good!
My name is HOPE, I am a Chocolate Lab/Staff mix. I was found by an Amanda volunteer on Hope street here in L.A.. I had no home, I was hungry, scrawny , I had open sores on my weak body, I had almost given up. But then something wonderful happened, because of people like you! Your donations allowed me to end up at the Amanda Foundation. They have nursed me back to health and now I am ready to go home with you! I HOPE you want me! I'm HOPE!
 
Dog Adoption Procedure:

Please call The Amanda Foundation at (310) 278-2935 to make an appointment to see      one of our dogs. It is important that we have the opportunity to talk with you about what you are   looking for in a canine companion. Also by speaking with you we can give you much more information about the dogs on our site.  We have many more orphans that are not on the   website and we can tell you about them as well. Some of  our dogs are in foster homes and    need to be brought to us for adoption interviews. We are open 7 days a week, 365 days a       year and remember, we show our pals by appointment only.

Adoptions!
