Theresa took her in, gave her safety and love, and partnered with Love and Second Chances Rescue to find her a family in Sacramento. Bella now knows what it feels like to be chosen — not for what she could give, but for who she is. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69ef03d2091a596f85dba1be/b0d405c9-4404-4316-8f45-a888c04a21e2/Lua.jpeg Meet our Rescues Luna · Found wandering across a busy highway, terrified and alone.

Ozzy spent his golden years exactly where he belonged — loved, comfortable, and never alone. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69ef03d2091a596f85dba1be/559a9ae6-db1d-49d0-89ec-93c78676e219/Dot.jpg Meet our Rescues Dot · Adopted alongside her bonded pair Ozzy from Muttville Senior Dog Rescue — because Theresa refused to let them be separated. Dot was the quietest, gentlest soul — never a bark, never a complaint, not a single mean bone in her tiny body. Her ideal day? A long nap followed by a trip to the casino to try her luck at the slots. She had a personality all her own — and she was loved every single day of her life. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69ef03d2091a596f85dba1be/7fc61f81-8797-4cfd-a87b-07bcf98107b2/Sugar.jpg Meet our Rescues Sugar · Theresa's third Muttville Senior Dog Rescue adoption. She arrived at Muttville with a severe ear infection so advanced it required surgery — but you'd never have known she'd suffered a day in her life. Sugar was pure sunshine. Happy, easygoing, and utterly content as long as she had her food, her cozy spot, and someone to come home to. She was exactly what her name promised — sweet through and through. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69ef03d2091a596f85dba1be/5e94f5b8-c680-44e7-8373-c5a53e2f9969/Barto.jpg Meet our Rescues Bartholomew Cubbins · Theresa's fourth Muttville Senior Dog Rescue adoption. He came in matted, deaf, and with failing vision — a little old man who had been overlooked for far too long. But Barto didn't need much. Food, a soft place to sleep, and someone to love him. He got all three. Simple needs, whole heart — that was Barto. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69ef03d2091a596f85dba1be/7cbd9d47-2cf8-42b0-9fb8-1cf9ce41c883/Lilly.jpg Meet our Rescues Lilly · Rescued from a backyard breeding situation, Lilly arrived carrying more loss than any dog should ever know — her four puppies didn't survive.

She sleeps in Theresa's room every night, full of love and sweetness — living proof that the most resilient hearts are often the most tender ones. https://www.phoebespromise.org/meet-our-people daily 0.75 2026-06-07 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69ef03d2091a596f85dba1be/d5f99597-85af-49d2-bfe4-1fc91fbffca4/AnitaBarcsaPhotograph-TheresaNguyen-2022-0456.jpg Meet our Team Theresa founded Phoebe's Promise Foundation in honor of her soul dog Phoebe — a 10-pound Shih Tzu who redefined devotion, one window vigil at a time.
