Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Hey everyone. You are right if you think we, Angel (f) and Benji (m), are the cutest you have ever seen. We are a bonded pair. We cannot remember how long we have been together.
Our human has gone home to the Lord. There is no family member to take us. So, instead of taking us to the shelter, the hospice people called our foster mom to help. She, just like the hospice nurses, couldn't send us to the shelter.
We have no idea what has happened. Our whole world has changed. We are adjusting fine. But what we need is a forever family who will love and spoil us rotten. We are terrific and delighted.
We love to go in the backyard and do our business while running around. But our foster mom also leaves a potty pad down inside.
Angel (f) is 15 years old, a Maltese, and approximately 15 lbs. Her left eye is starting to cloud up, and her left ear might be slowly hearing less. She is still happy, playful, and active.
Benji (m) is a 10-year-old Shih Tzu mix, approximately 24 lbs. He is a sweet, happy, and playful fellow. He is nervous around his foster mom's 3-year-old grandchild when he comes to visit. He is in perfect health.

More about this rescue
My name is Carla Carlton. We (my husband and I) are retired militay. He served in the Air Force for 25 years. We have always done comunity service. So, when we got ready to retire, we found a place we wanted to live and bought a home. Well, the town we lived in has/had a high kill shelter. This broke our hearts.
Around this same time, I met a lady who fostered for Friends of Homeless Animals, RI. One day I got a call from FOHA there was a poodle in our shelter and he was on the short list. I went and pulled him. Roie (FOHA), helped set me up to foster and list our orphans to adopt with families who really wanted them. I am not sure how long ago it was, 16-18 years, I think. The rest is history. Through them and Mountain Pet Rescue, CO (and a few others in CO, UT, IA, IL, OR, CA, MS...), we have placed over 2500 dogs/ puppies and cats.
