What is a Career Change Dog? Our professional trainers carefully select our dogs by evaluating them for temperament, health and eagerness to please. They are rescued from shelters where they are at risk for euthanasia. Some are rescued from shelters where they enter a rigorous training program to become Hearing Dogs for people who are deaf or hard of hearing.
Not all of our outstanding dogs can meet the demands of becoming a Certified Assistance Dog, thus the need for a "Career Change". They are, however, still winners, and make wonderful pets. Many are already housebroken and some know basic obedience commands. In short, these "near misses" make wonderful companions. We can help match you with a lifelong canine companion.

Meet Loki or Loki Charms, aka Hot Cheeto - The Ultimate Family Companion!
Do you live within 50 miles of Malibu? Are you ready to add a loving and loyal English Cream Golden Retriever to your family? Look no further!
Loki (or Hot Cheeto, as he's affectionately known) is a sweet and lovable gentleman who adores children and thrives in a family environment. He's a social butterfly who loves being surrounded by people and snuggling up for belly rubs.
This charming boy has a unique talent - he understands Spanish! Whether you're a bilingual family or just love the culture, Loki will respond to commands and affection in both English and Spanish.
Loki has two best friends, a Golden Doodle, and a Pug, and would love to join a family with similar energetic and playful companions. He's a natural-born playmate who enjoys playing fetch, going on walks, and cuddling up for movie nights.
However, Loki does have a wild side - he loves chasing wildlife like lizards and squirrels! To keep him safe and happy, we recommend a home with:
• A securely fenced yard to prevent escape attempts
• Supervised outdoor time to prevent wildlife chasing
• Plenty of indoor playtime and exercise to keep him engaged
In return for your love and care, Loki promises to bring:
• Endless snuggles and affection
• Joyful energy and playful companionship
• Loyalty and protection for your family
