Story
Mabel was abandoned near our rural property in November. We have tried to find her owners but no one has come forward. She is very sweet and loving. Very food motivated. The vet thought she was probably between 3-5 years old. She has been spayed, had her rabies vaccine and bordatella. She is heartworm negative and was dewormed. She walks well on her leash and is kennel trained. Vet references are required. This sweet girl needs a safe and loving home!

Story
Romeo was surrendered by his previous owner and was scheduled for euthanasia. I could not let that happen! He is so handsome. So I brought him home. I rescued him with the intent of finding him a permanent home. Romeo is very high energy. We have been working on sit, no jumping and leash walking. He is strong and I am not. He needs a place to run and with someone who has the strength and patience to train him. He is very sweet. Loves to be loved on.

Story
🐾 Maddie is a medium sized rat terrier mix. Maddie is a LOVER & oh so HAPPY! The slightest glimpse in her direction gets her tail wagging! She simply wants to be close to you & finds comfort with having you in her view. Why are we looking for a new home? It’s not one single reason & it hasn’t been an easy decision. Our other dog (14 lbs.) is extremely stressed by Maddie & by not being the only pet in the home. Small dog has developed seizures & vet said we must limit her stress. 📍 Collierville, TN (Memphis) 🎂 She’s about 6yo 💖 45 lbs. but ideal weight is 40 lbs. ✅ Spayed & UTD shots 🛌 Loves pillows, naps, heated blankets, squeaky toys & being close to you!

Story
**Think this dog might be for you? The first step is to complete an application: http://www.mominpinrescue.org/p/adoption-application_30.html We do not arrange transport for our dogs. If your application is approved, you will be required to come to us to pick up your dog.** Brad came to our rescue after we were notified by a shelter in Michigan City, IN. He is currently located with our foster mom near Nashville, TN. He is fully vaccinated, microchipped, and is looking for his perfect home. Brad's DNA test came back showing him being 53.5 Jagdterrier, 15.1 Russell-type Terrier, and the rest being a variety. Brad is estimated to be about two years old and weighed about 20 pounds when we got him. He is people-selective and he tolerates his female foster because she is dog savvy. He needs an experienced adopter, and an experienced MALE adopter would be ideal. If that experienced male adopter is active, even better. We understand that Brad won't be an ideal fit for everyone, but we know that his perfect person is out there! He is housed with other dogs and can be selective about the ones he prefers. He has not been kid or cat tested, but we feel that he needs to go to a home where he can be the only pet, and where there is a strong adult male role model and no kids! Brad is located near Nashville, TN and his adoption fee is $260.

Story
**The first step to adopting from MO Min Pin Rescue, is to complete the online adoption application. A good vet reference and heartworm prevention are required. We do not arrange transport, and you will be responsible for coming to us to get your dog. Adoption Application link: https://www.mominpinrescue.org/p/adoption-application_30.html ** Willie is about 2 years old and weighs 17 pounds. He came to us after his breeder mom passed away and animal control contacted us to help. He is currently located in Tullahoma, TN with his foster dad. Willie has had little human socialization and will run if given the chance. He is not leash-trained, so a secure fence is necessary. He has been known to climb a chain-link fence. With some one-on-one interaction, he can learn to be a wonderful pet. But don't expect a warm and snuggly companion right off the bat. It is preferred that his adopter have some Min Pin experience. He has been fully vetted, including neuter, vaccinations, microchipped, and heartworm negative. He is located in Tullahoma, TN, and his adoption fee is $275.
