Story
Minerva is a 8month old 15 pound, girl who has had a very hard life. She is a Chihuahua mix, weighs about 15 pounds. She was attacked by a large dog who bit through her spine near the hips. She has lost some of the coordination in her back legs but can still walk. If she gets scared or gets in a hurry her back legs will give out on her and she drags them. otherwise she walks okay. she has healed really well and because she is young the veterinarian thinks that she may get better movement as she gets older and her muscles develop she is incontinent, so will need a diaper.. She's very affectionate She was rescued in Guadalajara, Mexico

Story
Cheddar is the sweetest boy you'll ever meet. He's a happy go lucky little ball of energy who will always be sure to put a smile on your face with his silly antics. He loves to kiss and snuggle his people. He is house and kennel trained and does well with dogs his size. Larger dogs seem to intimidate him and he will react poorly in some situations which can be potentially harmful to him but please don't let that turn you away from this amazing little man. He is fiercely protective of what he believes to be his humans. You can bet any intruder is going to think twice before messing with his people because he is an amazing little guard dog. With that being said, he takes sometime to warm up to new environments and needs to be given the chance to show you how good of a boy he truly is. If you have room in your heart and your home, please consider making Cheddar a member of your family.

Story
This is Princess, she is a mature female maybe 5 or 6. She has all of her shots, heart worm negative and she’s chipped. This little girl is small in size but has a humongous heart that is full of LOVE. Princess would make an awesome therapy dog, she meets new people by rolling over and exposing her belly. She loves a good belly rub. She is very submissive, loves kids, meeting new friends, and gets along with other dogs. She would be perfect for an older person or persons. There’s no drawbacks for this little girl, happy and go lucky personality. If you would like to meet Princess please dm me or send an email. This is a very SPECIAL girl! You’ll be the luckiest person in the world to have her in your life

Story
This is Double D, he was found roaming around in my neighborhood. He is between 2or3, neutered male, current on his shots and is chipped. I believe he would be best suited for a family with older kids or no kids, no cats and small dogs only. He loves to talk back and gets really excited when it’s time to eat.

Story
Edward is roughly 6 years old. He came to us, May of 2023 (481 days ago). Now, Edward can be a little bit of a Butt to say the least. When he was first here, he would bite in a heartbeat. He didn’t want to be touched and he surely didn’t want to be picked up. Well, a year later, he will go outside but he isn’t sure he likes it. He can be picked up but you can’t startle him. Edward loves chic-fil-a waffle fries and he is very gentle to take his treats. He loves to curl up in his bed and sleep and he will sit up like a little squirrel to beg. I think Edward would do best with a single person that would give him time to learn the routine and show him the love he deserves. He really is a tough one and this is why we have been hesitant to try to find him a home. Here with us, we know his little quarks and work around them. We just want to see him succeed. If you would like to meet Edward, please reach out to us and let’s set up a meet and greet.

Story
Meet Felice! Felice is a chihuahua mix and we are guessing she is around 5 years old. She weighs 10-12lbs and will be vetted very soon. Her vetting will need to be completed before she can go to her new home, but she is available for pre-adoption now. Felice recently had 2 puppies in our rescue and has been a great mama. In a few weeks she will be spayed, vaccinated and ready to find her own new family. Felice loves sitting on her person's lap. She also enjoys the company of other dogs and sleeps quietly all night with her foster fur siblings. She seems house trained and knows how to use a doggie door. She will use potty pads in a pinch. Felice's adoption fee is $165 and includes her vaccines, spay, microchip, heartworm test and a box of heartgard to get her started in her new family. If you think Felice might be the one for you, please submit your application. The applications are found under the How to Adopt menu on our website at www.myhappytail.org or by copying this link into your browser: https://form.jotform.com/201527297286058
