Story

Rio is a total love bug! At just 12 pounds he is a bundle of joy. Very timid at the onset, but he will warm up to you in no time. Rio gets along just fine with other dogs and is great with people, but because of his size only older respectful kids please. A fenced yard is a must for him so he can explore his surroundings safely. Rio appears to be housetrained but we always expect an accident in a new environment. He is neutered and up to date with vaccinations. Looking for a little one? Check out Rio. More photos to follow when he arrives April 5. Applications at www.pounddogfounddog.org. All applications and inquiries receive a reopen o please be sure to check spam folders.

Story

Ginger is definitely the sweetest little girl you’ll ever meet! She weighs approximately 18 lbs and is about 1 year old. She has not had an easy life. She was found roaming the streets, sleeping wherever she could, and getting chased by male dogs. Unfortunately, she didn’t even make it past her first or 2nd heat before she was pregnant. She had 3 beautiful puppies. She spent the first few weeks of their young life providing them shelter and finding food so she could feed them. It wasn’t until they were about 6 weeks when a good Samaritan found her and got her and her puppies safe. We believe the puppies were born around mid October, they have since been adopted 😊 Ginger is such a doll. She loves to please her people and be around people. A complete lap dog and cuddle bug. Once you start petting her, she will roll on her back to get lots of belly rubs. She doesn’t care where you pet her, as long as you do. She’s SOOO happy. Ginger loves other dogs and gets along with every dog she has met. She was a GREAT mom to her little ones too. She doesn’t mind cats at all (please see video). She completely ignores the cats inside the foster’s home and gives them no mind. She would rather be looking at her humans than anything else. Ginger is leash trained and does great on the leash. Because she has limited house experience, she is learning potty training currently, so she does need a home that understands she is not fully house trained. We do believe it won’t take long to house train her with someone who is consistent and patient. Ginger does great with all ages, children and all people. There is no person she has met she doesn’t just melt into. If you’re looking for a super friendly, very sweet, people pleasing, loyal companion, smart, gentle, lapdog doggy – please consider Ginger today. Ginger is spayed, heart worm negative, current on vaccinations, current on dewormer, current on preventions, microchipped and will be given a clean bill of health from a veterinarian prior to adoption. If you are interested in adopting, PLEASE fill out an application at www.pawsitive-impact-animal-rescue.org

Her family moved away and left her alone in a crate in the yard. She is such a nice, sweet girl, we can't imagine why they would do such a thing. Gigi is dog friendly, cat friendly and kid friendly. She loves affection! She is housebroken and crate trained too. Gigi is fixed, up to date on vaccines, microchipped and has been treated for parasites. She is currently undergoing treatment for heartworm and will be available at the end of April/early May. Her adoption fee is $450. Adopting a dog is a commitment that will require annual veterinary care at a minimum, training, exercise, enrichment, etc. Pet care is not cheap or easy and adopters should consider the costs, time and training prior to adoption. After all these dogs have been through they deserve a loving, committed home. How to Adopt Me!

Story

Casey is a cuddlebug who loves to get under the covers and always manages to find his way into your lap! He is a 6 year old, 25lb rat terrier mix with a BIG personality. He leads an active lifestyle and loves hikes and playing fetch. Casey needs a home with no cats or kids. He gets along with most small dogs but doesn’t do great with big dogs. He does fine in the house alone during the day and will greet you with enthusiasm when you get home! Family has a new baby and Casey is not adjusting well to crawling and will likely not be happy with a small walker in the house. To keep everyone safe we need to find the perfect ADULT ONLY home for this sweet guy! Please email rehomecasey@gmail.com for an application 🐾

Story

Blair is a lovable energetic dog that would thrive with an owner(s) who are also active with or without children. Blair is a hunter, so does not get along with unknown other dogs or cats. She is also a snuggler and craves attention. We have a senior dog who tolerates Blair and vice versa. Our family loves Blair, but she needs a family or owner that has more time to actively spend with her.
