Simon Labrador Retriever & American Staffordshire Terrier Mix Temecula, CA

Born on Easter Sunday 2023, Simon is a beautiful, soulful pup who has been lovingly hand-raised in a foster home since the day he was born. His mom, a sweet and nurturing mix of Staffie, Boxer, Shepherd, Lab, and more (a true "Heinz 57"!), gave Simon and his 9 siblings the best start in life.

While his brothers and sisters have all found their forever homes, Simon is still waiting for his special someone. A naturally sensitive, shy, and reserved boy, Simon has always preferred to sit back, observe, and take his time getting comfortable. But once he knows you’re his safe person, he begins to blossom and it’s a beautiful thing to see.

Simon loves peaceful hikes and trail walks with his foster mom and finds joy in quiet companionship. He’s wonderful with other dogs (with proper introductions) and would thrive in a home with a calm, confident canine companion. His perfect match? Someone patient and kind, who understands that building trust takes time but the reward is a deep, loyal bond that lasts a lifetime.

Simon is gentle, undemanding, and protective in the most loving way. He doesn’t need the spotlight. He just needs someone who sees him, believes in him, and is ready to give him the love and encouragement he needs to feel safe and secure.

If you’re ready to help a sweet, shy pup grow into his best self, Simon might just be your perfect match. Come meet him as you may find he’s been waiting just for you.
