Story & background:

Rizzo is a rescue from San Bernardino, she was found under an old wooden mobile home with another sibling. We discovered about Rizzo when one of her siblings (Sandy) was rooming the street where Rizzo is located. The story began when our volunteers noticed Sandy roaming near a property that had a number of old trailers and mobile homes where people live. Our volunteer managed to pick up Sandy and went to talk to some people who live on that propery. A woman said that they have one adult male dog and five adult female dogs on the property. They all hide under a wooden home and there are other two puppies hiding under the house. Immediatly our volunteer went under the house and managed to pick up the other two siblings of Sandy (Rizzo was one of them). Afterwards, the lady asked the rescue to spay/neuter some of the dogs they have on the expenses of the rescue. As a part of our responsibility towards our community in San Bernardino, we spayer/neutered all 6 dogs on the property.

In regards to the puppies we rescued on that property, they are so sweet and cuddly. They get along with smaller and larger breeds of dogs. They love to be around people and kids. They are also exceptionally smart. The ideal adopter for any of these puppies will be a family with kids. All the puppies have been vaccinated, and dewormed. Recently, they got spayed and received their rabies shot.

PetEmber Animal Rescue is a California 501 (C) (3) charitable non-profit organization that does not receive any governmental funding and relies only on the donations of the public to help provide urgent care for abandoned, neglected, and abused dogs and puppies. Also PetEmber helps Spay/neuter dogs in low income areas of the Inland Empire. All donations are tax-deductible. Our rescue is in continuous improvement and we strive to cope with all the technologies of the era to help provide better services to our customers and better care for our rescued dogs. When adopting a dog from PetEmber, you receive a well-rounded healthy dog that is up to date on all vaccines since all proceeds are directed to provide a supreme veterinarian care, nutrition, and training for the dogs we have. These proceeds are also used to help care for other senior, disabled, or hard to adopt dogs due to behavioral issues.
At the time of the adoption, the adopter receives a complete health record for his/her adopted dog on site. Necessary paperwork such as the rabies certificate, Spay/neuter certificate, vaccination record, and a copy of the adoption agreement are all handed to the adopter at the time of the adoption. These documents help the adopters in the process of licensing the dog or registering the dog as an emotional support animal (ESA). All dogs posted for adoption are 100% ready for their forever homes.

If you are interested in adopting any of our adoptable dogs, we created an online adoption application that works best on google chrome browser.
