Story
Johnnie ... no kids, good w dogs, savvy owner because he can be quirky and you need to read his cues. Johnnie was returned today after 8 months in a home . Johnnie is a lot like my own pup, Herschel. Herschel doesn't like to be handled or pet or will bite. Who knows the reason, it doesn't really matter why... I know and respect my dogs triggers and don't get bit. He's my baby and always wants to be close, just on his terms. Just like Johnnie. We will be working w a trainer for Johnnie.  He's a senior, shih tzu who is blind in one eye. He deserves better, and we will do all we can to make sure he gets the best of the best.  Do you have experience with a little like Johnnie, and want to open your heart and home for him?  Then fill out our application below, but please, only if you are truly serious about giving Johnnie his "forever" home. Please go to the link to fill our our adoption application.  https://www.remembermerescueny.net/adoption-application  Remember Me Rescue does not adopt out of the local area, no transport is available.  We adopt to Long Island, Westchester, NYC area and parts of Connecticut only. Also, we have a very high volume of applications and we are all volunteers. We cannot respond to every application personally. Please make sure your application gives us a good picture of your family and the life you plan on providing a dog from our rescue.

Story
Gizmo is a 12 year old little girl, who was surrendered back to the rescue for no fault of her own! Typical Shih Tzu personality with alot of cuteness on the side.  She is good with dogs, but would do best without children only because they might be too much for her.  She would love a quieter home, not a apartment otherwise she will bark if you are not around.  She needs someone who understands the breed, and will give her time to acclimate to her new home.   Please go to the link to fill our our adoption application.  https://www.remembermerescueny.net/adoption-application  Remember Me Rescue does not adopt out of the local area, no transport is available.  We adopt to Long Island, Westchester, NYC area and parts of Connecticut only.
