Story
Meet Barkley! Barkley is an 8 year old Maltese mix who was pulled from a crowded city shelter where he was at risk of euthanasia unless a home or rescue stepped up to save him. We were happy to step in and give this tiny little cutie the forever he deserves! Sadly, situations like this happen almost daily due to the severe pet overpopulation problem, as well as the sad reality that people are turning a blind eye to it and are continuing to breed and purchase dogs while thousands of dogs in shelters are dying every single day. If you don't understand, please take a trip to any high kill city shelter and see just how many AMAZING dogs are dying every single day, due to no other reason than lack of homes. If you don't find what you are looking for at a high kill shelter and you adopt from a smaller rescue such as ours, you are still helping save these kinds of dogs by opening up a space at our rescue to be able to pull them and find them a loving home in whatever amount of time it takes. If you are interested in being considered for them please apply on our website at www.angelsretreat.org Quick Facts: -He weighs about 26 pounds but needs to be on a diet (he has started with us) -He gets along great with other dogs -He launches his himself at people and wants you to catch him for cuddles

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
Enzo is due for his shots. Enzo is a loving dog, I answered no to him being good with children but it’s based on age. Not good with children who are aggressive but otherwise he’s fine. He has no teeth so a good safe environment is the most important thing to me.
