They were labeled as strays. The shelter tried finding a foster home for her. However, being a new momma she was threatening everyone who went near her and her babies. Nobody was willing to take the momma in to give her and her babies a chance. We just so happened to have some space and had contacted the shelter about another dog needing us. The staff member didn't know much about him off the top of her head but she did know this little girl so sent pictures and told me her story and let me know they were urgently in need of rescue since Miss Tinker was only letting a couple people near her babies. So when we picked up the first dog we said yes to we grabbed her and her babies as well. The babies have since been adopted and now it is Tinkers turn to find her forever family.  Temperament- Super sweet, very smart, loves attention, and tries really hard to do what is expected of her. She is just a sweet little dog and wants nothing more than to be loved on. She enjoys sitting in the chair next to mine so that she can be higher than the other dogs and get pets. She lets the grandkids love on her and pet her and is just so sweet.  Energy Level- Pretty mellow for the most part though she will attempt to play fetch sometimes.  Dogs/Cats- Ignores the cats completely. She enjoys playing chase with the other dogs.  Housetrained- She is crate trained and house trained. However, she was not house trained when she got here so she was more than likely an outdoor dog. So as with all new dogs she should be watched initially to ensure she doesn't start having accidents- she needs to be shown the rules from the get go.  Tinker just needed to learn that nobody was going to hurt her and her babies. Once she realized they were all safe and loved she just turned into the sweetest girl ever. She is just such a little tiny gem with big ears. She is absolutely perfect - with such a wonderful temperament she won't last long as I imagine once people see how perfect and uniquely beautiful she is we will get slammed with applications so get yours in if you want to meet this sweet girl. She will make an absolutely wonderful addition to any family wanting that perfet little dog to love.    Adoption fee $300 includes spay, age appropriate vaccinations (4 for puppies), deworming, microchip, rabies, collar and leash, training information, and all the support you need. Send us an e-mail to adopt@almosthomenm.org requesting an application to adopt this sweetie!! Animals are seen by appointment after we have an application.

They were too small to make weight for surgeries and had some health issues so were transferred to rescue.  Temperament- Very sweet and playful..  Energy Level- Very playful loves to run around - should have an active family.. Please keep in mind all puppies need time, love, training, and playtime to burn energy and be the best puppies they can be. If you are not prepared for sharp nails and teeth and a lot of training, messes, and work then please consider an adult dog who is already trained.    Dogs/Cats- Loves all the other dogs and cats     Housetrained- He is currently using puppy pads and in an x-pen when he can't be watched. Adopter will need to be willing and able to housetrain. We recommend all puppies be kept in an x-pen with bed, food/water, and a puppy pad or litter box when they can't be watched to prevent puppies from getting into the habit of going potty in the house where they can't be corrected. In an x-pen with a puppy pad they know the puppy pad is where they go then slowly you can start losing the x-pen. If you have a dog door even better!!!  Crates for puppies in my opinion are a recipe for disaster because if they go potty in it there is nowhere for them to get away from the mess then the owner gets upset because they've stepped in it and gotten poop everywhere. So if you can get an x-pen or baby gate and put them in an area where they can have a puppy pad is best.  This sweet little boy has long legs like a tiny fawn. Despite their size they are still very active and playful. Haha this sweet little boy won't be available long as he is absolutely adorable and so tiny!! He will make a wonderful addition to any family wanting a tiny baby to spoil.  Adoption fee $300 includes neuter, age appropriate vaccinations (4 for puppies), deworming, microchip, rabies, collar and leash, training information, and all the support you need.
