Story

My name is Millie! I am about 6 to 7 years old and 14 lbs; with my big ears, I appear to be a Rat Terrier mix among a few other things; we think I also have some JRT in there! My foster mom and family say I am a really good little girl. I was found trotting along a country road all by myself. My finder drove up in their car and with a little cajoling, I decided it looked safe... safer than what I was dealing with! I am glad I took the plunge and hopped in because I seemed to have hit the foster jackpot. I am dog and people friendly. I am housebroken. I don't require a crate, but I may ask to sleep in your bed! I am good on leash and I love to go on walks. I can be playful but I really enjoy snuggling up next to her humans. I also love to lounge in the sun when it's available. I will let you know when I want to go out for fresh air and when my outdoor time has ended. I am going to make a great little companion! I have not met kids under 10 yet nor those felines! I will make a great little companion for some many households. If you are interested in me, here is a link to the application! https://www.zivadogrescue.org/adoptable-dogs

Story

Hello pet lovers , I have had Kyo for the past 7 years. We got him and his lil brother in a small box in 2018 and me and my sister have decided to keep him since we wanted a dog so bad. However, throughout the years, Kyo would be more anxious without us by his side and cause a scene when we leave the house. Since I just delivered a baby, I don’t have much time to be with Kyo now since I will be focusing on my newborn. Kyo loves to explore, play and be by our side , he also loves to play fetch and tug ! I just want to find a good home for him that would give him more attention and training as we wish we could have done more.
