Adopt a Pointer in California

Pointer mixes share the breed's elegant athleticism, sweetness, and strong prey drive. They appear in rescue when their bird-dog energy outpaces family life. A rescued Pointer thrives with running, hiking, or fieldwork as part of the routine.

California has one of the largest populations of rescue dogs in the United States. The state's warm climate means many rescues operate year-round, and major metro areas like Los Angeles, San Francisco, and San Diego are home to hundreds of rescue organizations.
