Please contact Constance (connibouchard@gmail.com) for more information about this pet.Rescued dogBiography Important Information Please read! If you are interested in me after reading about me, please visit my site, http://www.breederadoptions.org and follow the instructions. The majority of the dogs we rescue, mostly breeder dogs, have lived their entire lives in less-than-ideal conditions so will need to be socialized, house and leash trained. Most have never lived in a house, walked on a leash, had a treat or sat in a lap. For many of them, their feet have never touched the ground after living for years on wire until they arrive at our main facility where they are evaluated, groomed and given vet care. Most of these dogs are not socialized and need to be cornered to be picked up, so are not suitable for people with physical disabilities or suffer from PTSD. They need folks who will make them the center of their world and help them learn to trust before even attempting to train.  Please do not apply if you do not meet the requirements of the dogs we rescue.  However, they will learn with time, love, patience and most of all, commitment. You must have an ample supply of all of these to reap the rewards of watching these very special dogs become your wonderful companion. We state any known health issues, all are altered unless there is a medical reason not to, which we will advise, any known medical issues addressed, are microchipped, are UTD on all vaccines and have been checked out by at least one veterinarian, usually two. We do not guarantee the health of any of our rescued dogs. The dogs we rescue have lived with other dogs all of their lives and most get along with other dogs. We state if they are dog aggressive. We require a permanent, full-time parent. That means you must be able to spend the majority of your time with your new companion to socialize and train. We do not, under any circumstances, place them in homes with young children as they have not been exposed to children and we do not know how they will react. Please do not waste your time or ours if you are not prepared to adopt within 2 weeks and you are not willing to pick the dog up at its location. Hi! My name is Cry Baby, and I am a beautiful Maltitzu girl who was born 7/27/19, and I weigh 9 pounds. A sibling to learn from and play with would be ideal. If you have been waiting for a gorgeous Shih Tzu +, please ask for me on your application to http://www.breederadoptions.org. Love, Cry Baby 072024-46  December 8, 2024, 9:38 pm

Story
Highlights:needs another more confident dog in the homeJed is a 1-year-old Shih Tzu weighing 14 pounds, and he`s as playful as they come—especially with his dog friends! He thrives in the company of other dogs and will need another playful pup in his new home to help boost his confidence. Jed may be nervous around humans at first, but with another dog by his side, he’s braver and more willing to interact with people.In the playyard, Jed is the life of the party, always trying to get everyone to join in on the fun. He’s super playful and loves to chase, wrestle, and have a good time with his dog friends. While he`s still a bit unsure about pets, he’s becoming more open to human interactions with each passing day. He’s even starting to take treats from humans—a big step in learning that people can be kind and trustworthy.Jed will need a patient family who understands his journey and is willing to work on showing him that humans are good. With time, love, and the companionship of a confident dog sibling, Jed will continue to blossom into the happy, playful pup he was always meant to be.- - - - -Before being rescued, many of our dogs have had limited socialization, so they may need a bit of time to adjust to life as a family pet. Older kids are often a great fit for our dogs, and homes with younger children will be considered based on each dog`s individual needs. Skills like house training and leash walking may take a little extra patience and practice. However, with understanding and a gentle hand, most of these dogs adapt quite quickly. Being a part of their rehabilitation is a truly rewarding experience. To learn more about mill dogs and start the adoption process, visit our website!

Good with dogs, Needs special attention, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Kiwi is very much a companion animal he wants to be near his person and will sit at your feet or on your lap for hours. He is very eager to please. Kiwi had parvo very badly as a young puppy so he was having difficulty with knowing when he had to go to the bathroom. He still has a disconnect between knowing that he has to go and alerting you. When he has to go he has difficulty holding it Which makes it imperative that you're willing to let him consistently. He is getting better as the ages so perhaps training and time will alleviate the issue. He's very sweet and loving which makes it worth the effort. He will need a fenced yard. His adoption fee of $375 includes neuter, microchipped and vaccinations We are located in the Colorado Springs area. All adoptions require a home visit.

Story
Rhino is a very lovable boy, full of energy and LOVES to play fetch with squeaky toys. He is very smart, yet still has some issues to work on. He can be in a home with other dogs, but preferably female dogs. He can be around other male dogs, but is slightly aggressive at first until he gets to know them. We are choosing to re-home him as he was supposed to be a playmate for our other dog and unfortunately his presence has made her revert back to some old ways.

Story
This is Rex! He will be 8 in August. He still loves to play with his toys and go on walks! I adopted him in 2019 but unfortunately with my growing family, we do not have the time to give him the attention he needs. He would do best in with an adopter who is single, retired or a couple who has a lot of time for him. He loves to be your shadow and cuddle on the couch. He does okay with kids and other dogs, but prefers to be alone and have his space. He has never been around cats, so I am unsure how he would do with cats. When I adopted him, he was potty pad trained but since has been trained to go outside. He is also kennel trained.

Very sweet, loving 10 year old shih tzu. Lives with other dogs, cats and grew up with children. Does have a tendency to bark outdoors but not always. He does have some accidents but will go outside if taken out frequently. Spends nights in crate. Looking to rehome because we are not home much due to frequent travel.
