💔 HE WAS ADOPTED AS A PUPPY FEOM CVAC, ONLY TO END UP ABANDONED ON THE STREETS FOR REASONS WE MAY NEVER UNDERSTAND.

Rocky is only 7 months old. He should be learning about the world from the safety of a loving home. Instead, he was found running terrified through Moreno Valley, hiding in bushes whenever people or cars passed.

He had a family once. But when he was found, his registered owner’s phone was disconnected. Emails went unanswered. Even the shelter tried to reach them.

Nobody came for Rocky. 💔

But two people refused to leave him behind.

Mike and his wife saw a frightened puppy who desperately needed someone. They patiently earned his trust, brought him into their home, and gave him the time and love he needed to feel safe again.

And look at him now. 🥹

In just three weeks, Rocky has begun coming out of his shell. He plays with their dog, relaxes beside him on the couch, and is finally getting to experience the life every puppy deserves.

We want to recognize Mike and his wife for doing what so many people walk past. They didn’t just rescue Rocky from the streets. They gave him a reason to trust again. ❤️

Although they cannot permanently adopt another dog, they’ve generously offered to continue fostering Rocky while we help find his forever family.

Good Tails Rescue wants to stand behind this sweet boy, but we are already stretched thin. Taking on another dog means another long-term commitment, and we cannot do it without your support.

🙏 WE NEED PLEDGES AND DONATIONS for Rocky’s care while we search for his forever home.

Rocky is about 60 lbs, neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, and doing well with his foster family’s male dog.

He has already been let down once. Please help us make sure the rest of his story is different.

Can you pledge $5, $10, $20, or share his story? One share could reach the family he’s been waiting for.

Help us get this sweet boy the care he needs! 🐾

This handsome boy was found wandering in Anaheim. He is not microchipped, is not neutered, and appears to be around 4 to 5 years old. Has some wounds on his head and body🥺

Thankfully, we have secured a temporary foster while we search for his family. We’ll be checking Nextdoor and lost pet websites to see if anyone is looking for him. If no owner comes forward after 15 days, and all applicable stray hold requirements are met, he will be available for adoption.

In the meantime, we could really use your help covering his initial veterinary examination, vaccinations, and neuter. Every donation, no matter how small, helps us give him the care he deserves. ❤️

❤️ CANDY IS SAFE! WELCOME TO GOOD TAILS RESCUE! ❤️

This morning, we welcomed sweet Candy into our rescue family!

This beautiful 2 year old Shepherd mix has been through so much. Months of confinement, kennel stress, and even attacks by other dogs. Yet somehow, through it all, Candy never lost her desire to love and be loved.

Despite everything she’s endured, she still seeks affection from people and just wants to feel safe.

We couldn’t let her story end in a shelter kennel. ❤️

Now begins her next chapter, and we need your help! Candy will need veterinary care, time to decompress, and the support she deserves as she adjusts to life outside the shelter.

We know we can’t save them all, but today we were able to save Candy, and that means everything.

Please consider donating toward Candy’s care. Every dollar helps us give her the fresh start she deserves. 🐾

🚨 SOS FOR BROCCOLI! HE DESPERATELY NEEDS OUR HELP! 🚨

Meet Broccoli 🥦 Just a year old, 60 pounds, and already fighting for his life. He was scheduled to be euthanized today after the shelter determined he needed more medical care than they could provide.

Broccoli was found wandering the streets alone in August. Nobody came looking for him. Since then, he’s been battling ongoing diarrhea, weight loss, and tested positive for Coccidia and Giardia. Despite treatment, he remains underweight and needs further medical attention.

What’s heartbreaking is that through all of this, Broccoli remains such a sweet boy. He loves people, plays fetch, knows his commands, and even rolls over for belly rubs.

We want to give Broccoli a fighting chance, but we NEED YOUR HELP!

His medical needs could be extensive, and we need pledges to help cover veterinary care, testing, medications, and whatever additional treatment he may need.

🙏 PLEASE PLEDGE $5, $10, $25, OR WHATEVER YOU CAN! Comment your pledge below, donate, or share his story. Every dollar makes a difference.

Everyone pls welcome KAISER! ♥️🐾

Kaiser is one of those dogs who just makes you wonder how he ever ended up on a euthanasia list in the first place.

He is young, sweet, affectionate, and when shelter staff and volunteers spent time with him outside of his kennel, they saw a friendly boy who simply needed a chance to get out of an incredibly stressful environment.

Yes, Kaiser did get into a scuffle with another dog inside his kennel, but that moment did not define who he was. The people who actually spent time with him outside of that space saw a very different dog, and when one of our contacts reached out to us just three hours before he was scheduled to be euthanized, we knew we had to try.

Everything started moving very quickly.

We began working on a foster, volunteers started helping coordinate his exit and transportation, and somewhere in the middle of all of that, we were also able to connect with someone who wanted to give Kaiser a forever home.

She dropped everything she was doing so we could speak with her right away, go through our interview process, learn about her home and experience, and make sure this could truly be a safe place for him. Even with the clock ticking, we still wanted to make sure the right pieces were in place for Kaiser beyond simply getting him out of the shelter.

So many people worked behind the scenes to make sure this boy got out safely, and now Kaiser is getting the chance he almost did not have.

His next chapter will take him all the way to Canada, and we could really use help covering the cost of getting him there safely.

If you would like to help Kaiser make it home, please consider donating. Every little bit truly helps us continue saying yes when dogs like him are down to their final hours. 🤍

🚨 URGENT FOSTER NEEDED FOR LUNA 🚨

Luna has been with Good Tails Rescue since July 2025.

So many people fought to make sure she made it out of the shelter alive, and more than a year later, we still don’t understand why this beautiful girl keeps getting overlooked.

Her current foster can no longer continue, and beginning this Thursday, Luna will need somewhere to go.

We are looking for an experienced foster who understands structure, boundaries and dog behavior. Luna is dog selective, but she has successfully lived with other dogs before and was even best friends with a Pug. 🤍

If we cannot find the right foster by Thursday, we have arranged for Luna to go into training so she can work on her reactivity, build confidence and hopefully become less selective around other dogs.

That training is much needed, but it also means another major expense for the rescue.

So right now we need two things: an experienced foster OR help funding Luna’s training.

She survived because people cared. We need that same support for her now.

Please share, foster or donate. 🤍

We’re so excited to officially introduce Madeleine, our new trainer, who will be working closely with our fosters and adopters. 🤍

For the past six months, we have been working hard to find the right trainer to become part of the Good Tails Rescue team. As our rescue has grown, we’ve seen firsthand how important it is that our fosters have support beyond simply opening their homes.

Fostering can be incredibly rewarding, but every dog comes with a different history, personality, and set of needs. Decompression, leash reactivity, fear, over-arousal, socialization, or simply learning how to communicate with a new dog can sometimes feel overwhelming. We never want a foster to feel like they were handed a dog and expected to figure everything out on their own.

That’s why finding Madeleine was so important to us.

Madeleine is the founder of Rolo and Pack Adventures and specializes in pack walking, training, and professional in-home dog sitting. Her approach is slow and intentional, centered around clarity, consistency, and meeting each dog where they are.

One of the things we really connected with is her belief that clarity and consistency are what help build a strong relationship between a dog and their handler. When a dog understands what is being asked of them and the person handling them knows how to communicate clearly and consistently, trust begins to grow. And with that trust comes confidence, better communication, and a much stronger partnership.

Whether Madeleine is helping a dog work through different forms of reactivity, channeling excitement / over-arousal, or creating a strong foundation with a new puppy. The goal is to help the dog and the foster/adopter on the other end of the leash better understand one another.

We’re incredibly excited to give our fosters and adopters this additional layer of support, because when the humans caring for our dogs feel supported and confident, our dogs have an even better chance to succeed. 💙

Yesterday around 3 PM, one of our friends L, reached out about Rex, an all white pittie who was scheduled to be euthanized in approximately two hours.

What made it even harder was that Rex had so many people advocating for him. So many reels. So many shares. So many people trying to get someone to step in.

And yet, with only hours left, no rescue had taken him.

The second I saw his face, he reminded me so much of Wesley and Pookie. I told Lauren, “Let me see what I can do, but no guarantees.”

I reached out to one of our longtime fosters, and once again, she and her family said YES. 🤍

From there, everything moved fast. We coordinated his release, neuter, transport and made sure he had a safe home waiting for him.

And today, Rex walked out.

Yesterday he was scheduled to die.

Today he is safe.

Thank you to everyone who continues to support Good Tails Rescue and makes it possible for us to say yes when dogs like Rex have almost no time left.

If you would like to help us continue saving dogs like Rex, please consider donating, fostering or sharing.
