My story

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Please review our Adoption Process before filling out an application.  If you would like to try a Foster to Adopt trial, please fill out an Adoption Application.  If you are only interested in temporarily Fostering one of our rescues, please fill out a Foster Application.   Meet Silly and Happy! Updated 3/22/26 As the foster for Happy, I can say she is the sweetest loving baby! Hope we can find her a family home soon so they too can enjoy this beauty. Happy loves to run to me to be picked up and given hugs and belly rubs (which can be done now that she is small ha ha)  She was sleeping in her crate with her bro but I just made the change to sleep in their own crate and doing amazing. She is fantastic in the crate. She sleeps at night for 8-10hrs not a beep and such bladder control! (in the crate, not in the house lol she is a baby and NOT house trained, if you do not have time to potty train, then you should not be looking at pups - sorry!) Happy is perfect with dogs, cats and all humans. She is very outgoing and total social butterfly, she has only done one event and volunteers adored her. Happy is DONE with her puppy vaccination series and READY to go home. She is scheduled to be spayed on 4/20 so families should be local to san diego to be able to bring her to her spay apt (of course adoption fee covers surgery) and she will be old enough to receive her rabies, If you read this after 4/20 it means she is spayed and can NOW be adopted out of san diego area too. If you prefer to have her spayed before adoption we are sure we can squeeze an apt through our vet (unfortunatelly that is the soonest they had) but in order to make those changes we would need to have an applicaiton online and go through the process to approve so we can know you def want to adopt her and we can schedule ASAP. Otherwise if local to SD and are ok with the time perfect.  Silly and Happy are currently fostered together along with other dogs/cats in a home with yard setting and she is really good about walking to her favorites spots to potty which is adorable and such good pup. Not a big barker at all (at least not at this time) except when she is playing with fellow puppy friends and being rowdy. She is really enjoying to the dog park now for a short session to socialize with people and other dogs outside of the home. Her besties aside from her bro are RED our alpha senior large breed dog who totally loves silly and Chester the orange tabby. Happy and Silly love each other BUT will NOT be able to be adopted together as they are strong players on border line sibling rivalry so if you are looking for a pair these 2 babies should not be adopted together. If you like to adopt or foster to adopt trial for my sweet pup please submit an application ASAP at arwob.org and we will contact you ! NOTE - We have NO idea what breed silly and happy are Silly looks like a boxer pup but we would not doubt they have bully breeds and small breeds like chihuahua or small breed terriers. They were rescued from tijuana where there were a medium size dogs all mutts in the 30-50 lbs range so we believe these pups mama was one of them and in the 30-40lb range but no idea on dad could have been boxer, shepherd or poodle for all we know! his medical record will state boxer but he is a true mutt.  Silly - is just that, a total innocent funny goofball Happy - is just that, nothing but smiles and outgoing personalityVisit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.If you would like to meet one of our animals, PLEASE fill out an adoption application. Dog Adoption Application Cat Adoption Application   PLEASE NOTE: IF YOU ARE IN THE MILITARY  please fill out a short questionnaire in addition to the adoption application. Military QuestionnaireMay 24, 2026, 9:30 pm

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Happy, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
