Story
LOCAL TN ADOPTION ONLY. Thanks to a generous donor, Buttons adoption fee has been sponsored! let me tell you about Button...she is a sweet little lap dog. That should be the end of the story, but it's not. She is 9.0 years old and was surrendered to a shelter after her owner passed away. Our rescue pulled her and she has been in a my home as a foster for 6 months. At this stage of her life, Button is looking to run the show, at least in terms of getting her needs met. She is not demanding. She will be every bit as sweet to you as you are to her. She loves to sit on your lap and be petted. However, she is not here for your shenanigans and will not participate in your tomfoolery. Mess with her feet or her butt and she will give you a warning snap. One is all you get. If you don't aggravate her, you'll never see her dark side. She was groomed recently (with a muzzle) and attempted to bite nearly the entire time. But once she was finished, and the muzzle came off, she was sweet as could be instantly. She does not hold a grudge. She is pee pad trained although she will sometimes go potty outside Senior dog Adoption Fee of $112.50 Includes Age-Appropriate Vaccinations (DA2PPV, Bordetella, Rabies), Deworming, Spay/Neuter, Microchip, Flea, Tick and Heartworm Treatment and Prevention, and Sheltering. Adult Dogs are Heartworm Tested and treated if necessary. All dogs are given monthly heartworm, flea and tick preventative.LOCATED IN CROSSVILLE, CUMBERLAND COUNTY, TN.

Story
Welcome Ben to CCPAL Foster Program. Ben is a 2-year old 17 pound Maltese mixed dog. He does get along with the dogs in his foster care but his foster mom says he would prefer to be the only dog so he gets all the attention. He has really nice teeth that are clean and he will not need a dental any time soon. He was living as an outside dog for most of his life. The family decided he would be best in a home where he could be a part of the family and allowed to be in the house. He is not a big shedding dog and will need grooming to keep the beautiful white coat. His coat is soft. He is decent on leash and is learning to go potty on a wee pad. He is learning the crate from his foster mom. He has the beautiful and unusual brown nose and brown eyes. He would be a great fit for an older couple or an older single person with a more quiet home. He would be a great companion for someone wanting a companion for your house that is really pretty self reliant. He hasn’t been lots of places outside the home but he is learning it with his foster mom. She is taking great care of him until we find him his forever home. His home would be best with older children like 10 or older. He is definitely getting handled a lot in his foster home and getting on a schedule. He also lives fully indoors with short breaks outside for going potty. He is currently in Texas and can be adopted locally in Texas or we can work with one of the wonderful transporters to get him to Washington, Portland (Oregon), Minnesota, Vermont or all along the East Coast. His adoption fee is 400 and transport is 200. Rhode Island and Massachusetts are not states we adopt to because of the regulations imposed by these states Contact Marlene at 210-867-1769 or email to ccpalinquiries@gmail.com if you have questions.

Story
Say hello to Frieda! She is a 6 year old Maltese/Chihuahua mix (throw in almost 25% Pug and you've got a super cool mutt per her DNA testing!). Frieda is a stout, stocky girl weighing in at 21lbs. This girl is a sweetheart and will make an excellent canine companion for a lucky family. Frieda is housetrained and has wonderful leash manners. She is very food motivated and this has made her training quite fun and rewarding. Frieda does not need a ton of exercise - she is quite content with a daily walk in addition to regular potty breaks. Frieda is not overly needy either - she happily seeks attention, pets, and praise, then is happy to lay on her bed quietly chewing her bone. Just don't be late for breakfast time or dinner time or Frieda will remind you with the song of her people! Frieda would be perfectly happy as the only dog in the home. She does not mind the company of other dogs though and may consider sharing her home with a friendly, calm dog (Frieda is not looking for a playmate, but rather a canine roommate/companion). A quiet, adult home or one with gentle teenagers would be a good match for Frieda as well. Frieda is listed as "special needs" because she is on 3 different medications: an anti-fungal, prozac, and a steroid. These 3 medications seem to be the long awaited secret formula for keeping Frieda free from skin and allergy exacerbations. We are also providing Frieda with a prescription diet of Royal Canin Potato and Rabbit plus her favorite wet food topper Instinct Limited Ingredient Diet Real Rabbit Recipe. She is a fiend for food and easily takes her medication mixed in with her wet food. We have found that twice monthly antifungal baths (which you can do at home) have also kept her coat and skin fresh and clean. Frieda used to receive a monthly Cytopoint injection (for allergies) but has proven to do just fine with longer breaks between injections. Cytopoint may just need to be something that an adopter will consider doing when allergy season is in full bloom. We are looking for an adopter who will maintain a relationship with a veterinarian of their choosing to ensure that Freida is getting regular check ups (at least twice a year) and recommended blood work. The cost of Frieda’s upkeep (medications and food included), can range between $120-200/month and this does not include the cost of veterinary exams or lab work. We hope this does not deter adopters from the opportunity to own the wonderful and rewarding dog that is Frieda. To learn more about how to make Frieda your next 4-legged family member, please contact Beth at beth.b@poainc.org AND complete an application ASAP at www.poainc.org.

Story
Age:   approx 12 years old   Weight: 14  lbs My adoption fee is $ 100  which includes transportation charges to the Northeast.   Jasmine is senior maltese female who weighs about 14 lbs. We are guessing she is 10+ years old.  she has been spayed and had a dental cleaning and lost a lot of teeth on one side. She has impaired vision and hearing but is not  blind or deaf. She is a sweet dog who does fine in a multidog foster home with other dogs. She is very quiet unless she cannot get to  where she wants to go. So if crated may cry to get out. If outside may bark to get inside. I think she would love to be walked on leash. If you serious about adopting, the first step is to fill out an adoption application on our website:   https://www.smalldogrescuene.org/September 7, 2024, 10:10 am
