Meatball is eleven pounds of SPICE! He was found running scared and cold one evening when a Rescue Train volunteer spotted him as she was walking her dogs. We found out Meatie was turned out on the street as his owner no longer wanted him. How anyone could do this to him is beyond our comprehension. He is now safe on The Train and looking for a loving forever home.

This saucy dog is a Basenji/Chihuahua mix who LOVES other dogs and cats. In fact he could play all day! He'd be a great companion and playmate for another small dog. When he is not playing with his toys he’s is snuggling in your lap. He would do best in a social home with people or other animals. He can be nervous around some men but once he realizes he’s safe he relaxes. Like most Chihuahua mixes Meatball would do best in a home with no small children.

Meatball approximately one year old, healthy, vaccinated, neutered, microchipped, and just all around FABULOUS! He is great on a leash and never seems to tire. In his foster home he is making great strides in his housebreaking. He travels well and is excellent in the car.

If you’re looking for a life-long Soulmutt Meatball is your boy! And hey, check out those ears, he’s waiting for your call!

Dillinger was abandoned in Griffith Park where he somehow managed to survive for three months. He had the good sense to make his presence known to two Rescue Train volunteers who were walking their dogs in the park. His striking good looks and will to survive got him a ticket on The Rescue Train. CHOO CHOO!

Dilly has beautiful markings and acclimated to indoor life rather quickly and has blossomed into a happy and funny cat who loves attention and his toys. He is currently in a foster home with dogs and cats. We keep trying to explain to him that he is a feline but he seems to act more like a dog than a cat. We think he would be happiest to live as the only kitty or with a cat friendly dog.

Dillinger has been taught to give a "high five" before he gets food or treats. He is very affectionate and loves to sit in his foster mom's lap when she works on the computer.

He is approximately two years old and weighs 11 pounds. He is neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, tested negative for FIV/LUK and litter box trained. Can you open your heart and home to this little mountain lion?

Got handsome?

Action Hero, Lover Boy, Stoic Leading Man, Goof Ball, Lover Boy. Meet the many faces of Red! Red was rescued from The Pasadena Humane Society. He had been turned in as a stray. We know a good dog when we see one and took him on the Rescue Train where he is now in search of a loving forever home.

We've had dog trainers and veterinarians try to guess Red's breed and this is what we've heard: Retriever/lab/shepherd/pit/Shar pei/Vizsla/Great Dane mix. A real mystery mutt! He's under 2 years old and approximately 56 pounds of good dog. Everyone who meets him is struck by his good looks and soulful eyes. His stunning red coat got him his name. His temperament is just wonderful. He's an active dog who love to run and play ball. It would be ideal for him to have a yard to play in.

Red is our most recent graduate from our "Trained For Life" dog training program (to read more about this program please visit our website www.therescuetrain.org). He's had extensive obedience training which would have been a big investment for the average pet owner. We are looking for an owner who's interested in learning what he's learned and appreciates what an opportunity it is to adopt a dog that's been through this program.

Red needs an active home and ample exercise. He's a fun guy that likes stimulation. He would make a great jogging or hiking partner. He's also a little lover who can rest at your feet. He is very social and would be happiest in a home where people are around more often that not. He would be best with children over the age of 8. He's good with other dogs however he plays the more dominant role and would be a good companion for a dog close to his size. He does have strong prey drive so he would be best in a home without cats or other lives stock such as chickens. Also because he is very athletic we don't want him roaming on a large property unsupervised. He needs a secure yard.

Red is neutered, micro-chipped and current on vaccines. Can you open your heart and home to Red? In return you'll get a life time of devotion and unconditional love!
