Mimosa is an older German Shepherd recently rescued from Kern County shelter, where she was at risk of being euthanized. It’s clear she hasn’t had an easy life.

Mimosa appears to have been overbred again and again, and arrived in our care showing signs of severe neglect, including a skin condition that is now being treated.

But despite everything… she is incredibly gentle.

She doesn’t ask for much.

She moves through the world quietly, cautiously — like she’s still learning she’s safe.

And when she receives even the smallest bit of kindness, you can feel how deeply she appreciates it.

Mimosa is the kind of dog who has been overlooked for far too long.

The mamas.

The older dogs.

The ones who slip through the cracks…

We can’t leave them behind.

We are urgently looking for a committed foster, foster-to-adopt, or adopter… a calm, quiet home where Mimosa can finally rest, heal, and learn what love feels like.

She is easygoing, low-demand, and so deserving of a soft place to land.

Let’s show Mimosa that her story doesn’t end here.

Interested in adopting?
1. Please complete our online form at heartsforpawsrescue.com/adoption-application
2. We will respond in 1-3 days for a call!
3. If it sounds like a potential match for you and the dog of interest, we will promptly set up a meet and greet at the foster home

Please note we are a foster-based rescue meaning our dogs are in individual foster homes throughout sac and the bay. For this reason we may only be able to schedule meets for one dog at a time (or litter). The average timeline between app submission and a meet and greet is 3-5 days. Please only submit an application for a specific dog if you are ready to adopt that animal within a week's time.
