Story
Meeko was an owner surrender to the shelter. His mom was unable to care for him after being with her for 8 years. She was absolutely devastated. The shelter said he was too awesome to stay in the shelter and that he should definitely go to a home or hope you love. He is a very easy going old man. He is about 10 lb fully vetted vaccinated to fix microchipped. He gets along with all dogs. He likes to follow you around and sleep most of the day. He loves to be held and would be a great companion for someone who has the time for him. He loves to go and walks and he loves going in the car.

Story
Hi! My name is Lily Girl and I am very special. I am only 15 lbs and approximately 3-4 years old. We are guessing I am a Maltese/Terrier mix. I am a very mellow dog who does not require outside walks which would also be very scary for me as I am shy. We do not know what my previous life was like, so at first I am fearful, but not a biter. Once I know I am safe and only going to be loved, I become playful, affectionate and loving. I have been fostered with other dogs and even cats and do well with all!!! Young children might be too scary for me though. My ideal home would be one that is calm & quiet with someone who is looking for a mellow, loving affectionate small breed dog. Her adoption fee is $350and includes her spay, microchip and current vaccinations. To fill out an adoption application, visit https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/SSP-A-1164

Story
Meet Einstein Meet Einstein, a friendly, funny, and affectionate 2/3 year old pooch who is sure to make you smile. Though this gentle cutie might seem a bit curious and playful at first, there's no doubt that Einstein is one smart cookie. He seems to enjoy the company of other small dogs, but has yet to be tested with bigger pups. Einstein is always down for a game of fetch, and he's sure to win anyone over with his adorable smile. He's crate trained and always ready for a good snuggle session. If you're looking for a furry friend who will fill your life with love, laughter, and a few surprises along the way, then look no further than Einstein. This mischievous maltese mix is sure to steal your heart and make you wonder how you ever got by without him. If you are interested in learning more about this pup & setting up a potential meet&greet, please fill out our adoption application. https://www.underdogheroes.org/
