Story
Jovie Female Maltese/Poodle Mix 7 years old 7 pounds Health issues: Diabetic (managed) Good with dogs Unknown with cats Calm, gentle, older children only Jovie is an adorable, gentle girl who was used for breeding for 7 years before she was surrendered to Finding Shelter because she was no longer productive. Jovie was shy, scared, not feeling well (she was diagnosed and treated for diabetes), and yet she still found the courage to adapt to life indoors with new people. Jovie is incredibly sweet, her diabetes is controlled with daily insulin, she is happy and loves to cuddle on dog beds, and she seeks human attention now. We know Jovie has so much love to give to an experienced family who will provide the best care while allowing her to continue to blossom. Are you the one?

Story
Tasha is a 10 year old spayed female maltese who weigh 9 pounds. She was owned by an elderly lady who could no longer care for her and Tasha was in need of significant medical care. Tasha had her rotten teeth removed, is thriving on wet food and had her mammary masses removed as well. This cutie is a little lap dog and she is going to make a good companion. She has tested good with other dogs and deserves to be spoiled in her golden years.

Meet Widdle Bit – Your Tiny, Sassy Cuddle Buddy! Widdle Bit may be small in size, but she’s absolutely overflowing with personality! This little Maltese mix is the ultimate cuddle bug – once she warms up, she’ll be your loyal shadow, snuggling up by your side or burrowing under a cozy blanket. Important to know: Widdle Bit may take several days to decompress after the initial meeting. She’s a bit nervous at first and will not come to you right away, so patience is key as she adjusts to her new environment. Once she feels comfortable, though, she’ll be your best friend forever! Widdle Bit is pee pad trained and working on her leash skills, but with a little time and patience, she’ll be walking like a pro. She’s dog-friendly but may need some time to adjust to new furry siblings, although she’d be perfectly content being the only queen of the castle. She’s great being home alone, making her an easygoing companion for any household. Already spayed, vaccinated, and microchipped, Widdle Bit is ready to find her forever home with a family who can give her the time and space she needs to thrive. If you’re looking for a tiny pup with a big heart (and just the right amount of sass), Widdle Bit is ready to steal yours!   She is being fostered in Jackson NJ https://peytonsplaceanimalrescue.org/adoption-application/ ##2289589##

Story
Popcorn is about 18 lbs., 14 years old and according to Google lens, a West highland terrier. Animal Care Services thought he was a Maltese mix and foster mom thinks he could be a Schnauzer/Maltese mix but knows for sure that he is the cutest scruffy EVER!!! His journey hasn't been all snuggles and treats as he lived on someone's apartment patio for years, lying in poop, grass and other debris until Animal Care Services came for him and God's Dogs Rescue was able to save the little scamp. While he still loves his humans, other gentle pups his size (cats unknown) and his squishy toys and chewy, understandably he has a few emotional scars especially regarding vet visits and grooming. Slow, patient progress in these areas has helped him be more confident, but will need a patient adopter to help him adapt. Things that make Popcorn super happy are spending time with his humans after he gets to know them, car rides and walks in the park. He loves, loves his squishy toys and generally carries one around with him. His most favorite game is for his person to chase him and pretend to take his squishy away. He also like to run zooms and if there isn't a person to play with he will often throw his toys for himself. Doesn't that just make you want to throw his stuffies so he can play?? He's a healthy guy for his age with just a few old man issues (beginnings of cataracts) that he takes supplements for and should continue taking. His liver enzymes were high when tested but he is on a med to help them normalize. Can you give this boy the right lap to live in?? He needs very patient/knowledgeable adopters, no children- adult only because he will bite if afraid... It is a work in progress but he is becoming the goofy boy he was meant to be while living on the nasty hot and freezing porch for most of his 14 yrs :( GIVE HIM A CHANCE!!! Local adoption only $200 (in TX)
