Story
Hello I am Michelangelo! I like to keep an eye on my people and am really attached to my foster mom. I pretty much follow her schedule and keep my eye on her all day. I used to be sad when she would have to go out, but really happy when I get to go too. I just want to be around someone all day : )I have several favorite toys and enjoy playtime. Sometimes I have a hard time jumping up to sit near my foster mom and she needs to help me up, but have been doing pretty good about that lately. I enjoy walks but not too long. I like older children and meeting new people-watch for my sweet tail wags!I am a very laid-back dog. I am friendly and loving towards everyone I meet. I love to be loved, but I am not needy. I am excellent company. I am not a big barker, and I am a good watch-dog. I am a little hard of hearing, so you might need to use vibrations or light to get my attention.I do take seizure medicine and am on a special diet for my stomach-please ask the adoption team for more information on my needs! My adoption fee of $300 includes up-to-date vaccinations, dewormer, and heartworm/flea prevention. Plus, a microchip that is already registered to you! What more could you ask for?If you`d like to meet me, please fill out an application on our website, PawmettoLifeline.org. Adoptions are BY APPOINTMENT ONLY. Please fill out the online application, and you will be contacted if you are approved and are a good fit for one of our adoptable pets.

Story
Greetings from Queen Elizabeth, but you can call me Betty. I am eager to find a home that will keep me to the manner in which I have become accustomed. I desire space to run and be myself but also need love and affection on my terms (ha!). I love my people. I am very social with older kids and adults. Smaller children tend to make me nervous. I am definitely queen of my domain. I love to be in the know and by my mom`s side. I am perfectly content to scamper along with you and your daily activities. I love a good scratch behind the ears and will bump your hand for more attention.I am potty trained and would do best as an only dog.Can you make me your queen?Betty is part of our Home to Home Program. Although they are not a Pawmetto Lifeline dog, they have received the same high standards of care. Vaccinations and spay/neuter are included in the adoption fee. Pawmetto Lifeline wants every animal to have a chance to find a loving home. Please fill out an adoption application at https://pawmettolifeline.org/adoption/adoptionapplication/ or contact adoption@pawmettolifeline.org if you would like to meet this animal.

Story
I`m `Yay! O` 19 lbs of Chihuahua mixed with something handsome. You don`t have to worry about me roaming your house. If I`m not relaxing in my open crate, I`ll be in your lap cuddling. I`m house trained and will go outside to potty and then come right back in. I`m an indoor guy, That doesn`t even require long leash walks. Just give me the comforts of home and you won`t hear any complaints from me! I live with another younger female sister. We share one thing in common, we`d be more at home without young humans and their excitable voices and movements! Yayo is part of our Ambassador`s Program. Although they are not a Pawmetto Lifeline dog, they have received the same high standards of care. Vaccinations and spay/neuter are included in the adoption fee. Pawmetto Lifeline wants every animal to have a chance to find a loving home. If an animal is abandoned or needs to be re-homed, we can assist people by providing medical care, marketing and training if the individual fosters the animal.Please contact us at adoption@pawmettolifeline.org if you would like to meet an Ambassador Animal.

Story
I`m Stella and 3 years ago my mom rescued me from a living situation that made me fearful. The loud and boisterous kids in the home were not a good fit for me. Older kids or adults would be just fine! I also enjoy spending time outside with people and of course, sleeping in the bed at night! I`ve been living my best life until recently when my mom was diagnosed with an illness that makes her weaker by the day. I understand why it takes her longer to feed me or let me out. She`s looking out for my brother, YayO and me, and asked Pawmetto Lifeline to spread the word about needing a forever home. I`m confident that all will work out!Stella is part of our Ambassador`s Program. Although they are not a Pawmetto Lifeline dog, they have received the same high standards of care.

Story
Shawn was saved from Upstate shelter on the day he was to be euthanized. They saw his jaw was crooked and were going to put him down. No way we could let a sweet boy die for something like this! We had him assessed by the best ortho surgeon around and he said the break in his jaw is old and healed. His recommendation is to leave it alone because his body condition is great, he eats without difficulty and he is not in pain. So, this little cutie will have a quirky jaw but live a happy life with lots of love. Shawn loves people! He gets along with the fosters dogs. He is little scared of the cats but does not chase them. Can you give our cute boy a forever home where he will be a valued family member? He is ready! Age 5. Neuter, vaccines, microchip provided. 14 lb.

Story
Hi! I’m Nigel!Cute is an understatement! Nigel is around 9 old. He’s a total diva! In typical Pom fashion, Nigel is very loyal, fiesty and loving. He is the “little man” in charge and wants to be your guard dog. A retired person who is home a lot is perfect or someone that works from home. No children or other pets, please, as Nigel wants to be the `top dog`!Nigel does have some resource guarding issues, so being the only pet will help that tremendously. He is very protective like most Poms, so patience is the key. If you know and love the Pom breed and you are searching for a constant companion with no other pets in your home, Nigel is your best friend!!My adoption fee of $450 includes up-to-date vaccinations, dewormer, and heartworm/flea prevention. Plus, a microchip that is already registered to you! What more could you ask for?If you`d like to meet me, please fill out an application on our website, PawmettoLifeline.org. Adoptions are BY APPOINTMENT ONLY. Please fill out the online application, and you will be contacted if you are approved and are a good fit for one of our adoptable pets.
