Malcolm Reynolds (Mal) is about ten years old and only 6 lbs. He is fully ready for adoption. He will need to use belly bands at home. He will need medicine for gallbladder stones for the rest of his life, but it isn't expensive. He only has four teeth, so he will forever need soft food. The adoption area is limited to within a four-hour drive of Hammond, LA. Due to his small size and delicate frame. he cannot be in a home where there will be young children.

Quella is a sweet, quiet, loving girl who just wants to cuddle and watch movies. She's estimated around 12 years old. She must be on a special diet because she has a very sensitive stomach. She has hypothyroidism, but the medicine for that is not expensive. She's an older lady with arthritis, but is otherwise pretty healthy. She's a very, very good girl.

Story
Jake was found as a stray in Folsom where I work. After staying with a local vet clinic for over a month trying to find his owner, Jake came into my care to avoid being sent to a shelter. Jake has been in my care since March 2024. He is crate trained and potty trained, and has even joined me on several day hikes around Louisiana in the past months. I am looking to rehome him because my living space can no longer accommodate for him. Jake needs a home with a large fenced yard and maybe even another dog as a friend. He is a very energetic happy and goofy dog, and I want him to have a family that can better meet his needs. I do not have a limit to how long I can keep him but I would like to look for a new home for him that would be a better fit.
