Story
Hello People, My name is Vivi and I’m a sweet and quite sassy little girl of five looking for a forever home. My foster Mom says I’m very loving and affectionate -- and as feminine as they come. I’m all of 12 pounds, am housebroken (and use the doggy door) and I love my crate. I even put myself to bed at night if I’m tired (but Mom lets me come in to the Big People’s Bed in the morning for a cuddle or two or three!) Dad says I’m a diamond in the rough. He and Mom are doing their best to teach me the proper way to behave in the world. I’m definitely making progress but will need to continue my ‘learning’ with someone who is a super smart and VERY savvy dog person. If that sounds like you, please read on! While I am long on (good) looks and cute as can be, I’m also pretty willful. I like to do what I like to do (which is why I need someone who is smarter than I am and will guide me into perfect behaviors.) I walk well on a leash and am learning to relax in the car. I do best on short drives and when I can listen to music. I do love to cuddle and am known for springing up into your lap to cuddle at the slightest provocation and wanting you to pet my head ( but only my head, please!). If you are lying on the sofa, I love to roll on top of you and make cute little "snorty" noises as I turn around. Unfortunately I’m not a pup that is good around children. If you have children or grandchildren that visit I’m not the one for you. Sorry! I’m an ‘adults-only’ kind of pup. Mom says before I became a FurKid I was adopted simply because I am cute. So I formed some bad habits that she is helping me to overcome. Since I’m smart, I’m definitely learning what to do and not do. I’m also a bit selective about making friends. I bark when people come to the door (Dad says I’m a great watchdog) but when I know someone, I’m much friendlier. I also guard my toys, which is why I’m best as the only pup in the house. My Ideal Home: *Someone home most of the time * NO other FurKids--as I like to be the center of attention * Adults only * NO children or grandchildren * Committed to training me Experience level: *Recent dog experience a must! *Rescue dog experience a plus! *Experience with behavioral training a real plus!!! Because I wasn’t successful in my ‘past life’ I’m hoping to make up for lost time – and am looking for adopters who will appreciate my femininity and my affectionate nature – and will continue to work on my training so I can become the best little girl that I can be. Mom says there is no doubt that I’m well worth the effort but you have to know my signals so that I can be successful. If I sound like the pup you are looking for please let us know. It will be a very special home to which I am adopted as I’m a very special kind of pup. If that sounds like you, please send an email explaining your experience and background to bfkapplicants@gmail.com If you sound like you represent a fit, we will be back in touch. Tail wags and cuddles, Vivacious, Intelligent and Very Independent Vivi

Story
Nicholas was pulled on the day of his euthenazia date.  He was not doing well at all at the shelter and was terrified.  But almost immediatley after coming to his foster home, Nicholas relaxed.  He slept in his bed all night relieved. Nicholas is dog and cat friendly. Nicholas is quiet and a very shy but is coming out of his shell day by day. Foster is working on socialization that will need to be carried over to new owners. Another dog in the home would be extremely helpful for Nicholas. He is fully vaccinated and neutered. It must be noted that Nick is "SPECIAL NEEDS".  He will not let you touch him.  You cannot walk him.  And grooming is quite the challenge.  If you can get past that he really is a perfect dog.   ##1897878##

Story
This gentleman was almost lost to the world but we found him in time! He had such a diffcult adjustment to the shelter because he is blind and probably deaf, as well. He was circling his cage at night feeling lost and confused which caused sores on his tiny paws. We rescued him with the help of some fellow animal loving partners and now he is groomed, checked over thoroughly with our veterinarian and on the road to recovery and a safe, soft bed. He is an older fellow so he moves a bit slower than most but he is adjusting well and learning to navigate his new environment. ##2078823##
