Story
PLEASE READ ENTIRE POST AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION - REX BREED - Silky Terrier mix SIZE - About 15 pounds AGE - 2 years GENDER - Male MEDICAL CONCERNS - None known BEHAVIOR CONCERNS - None known SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS - Rex is a precious little fellow who came to us from rural Davidson County, NC after being dumped from a car in the country. This sugar sweet boy is a wonderful dog and we cannot imagine what would cause someone to do something so horrible as to abandon him. We are grateful that he was seen and taken in, and that we have the opportunity to help him to find a wonderful new home and family. Our vet has examined this healthy guy and thinks he is about 2 years old. He is fully grown at just under 15 pounds. Rex has gotten his first round of vaccines, has tested negative for heart worms and is scheduled to be neutered on December 16. Until after his neuter, we will only adopt him locally to Richmond, VA. We are seeking a knowledgable and experienced adopter who can help to train Rex to be an indoor dog, and to understand that he is secure in their home. A home with a structured fence is a must as this little guy is looking for escape. Clearly he is missing his prior home. We are seeking a home with an adopter able to work from home or be at home the majority of the day to spend time with Rex. A home without larger pets or small children is in his best interest. This beautiful boy is a true diamond in the rough. Our adoption process starts with your email to carerescue@aol.com or Adopt a Pet inquiry. After we receive it, we will email you our prescreening questionnaire. Your answers will help us determine that your home and lifestyle matches the needs of Rex and our adoption criteria. Once determined, we will set up a private meeting with you and your family to meet Rex at a park near our private kennel just east of Richmond. After meeting him and determining that he matches your preferences for a pet, we will accept your application. A home visit by one of our trained volunteers is required for all adoptions, and we will speak with your vet to ensure that you are a responsible pet owner.

Story
Fanta is one of the 60 Shih-Tzu recently surrendered by a breeder. They were all flea-infested and living in very unsanitary conditions. Most of the dogs lost almost all of their hair, but you can see this cute guy managed to keep most of his. Fanta is 5-6 years old. He's come a long way since arriving a couple of weeks ago. He was very skittish but is so much better. He has no problem meeting new people as long as they are patient with him and let him come up to them at his pace. His personality is starting to come out and he is starting to play and can be very amusing and goofy. He is a little nervous around the cats in the home but doesn't try to chase them. The foster family does not have any other dogs but we know he lived in a house with 59 other dogs his size so he may be OK with small dogs, but it would probably take him awhile to warm up. He would do good as an only dog. He loves to curl up on the couch with his foster mom and loves to be next to her all the time so he does need a home where someone is home a lot. He doesn't like being in a crate, but he is housebroken so no need to crate him. He does walk well on a leash. He does have some corneal density in his right eye which impairs his vision but he sees around it and that shouldn't change. He is vaccinated, neutered, negative for heartworms and micro-chipped. Fanta would do great with a person who wants a companion to be with them all the time. Young children would not be good since he is still skittish. We can see he is already doing so much better than when he arrived, and we know he is going to make a great companion for someone. If you are interested in Fanta our application can be found at www.homesfurhounds.org. He is located in Williamsburg.

Sprite is now available! She is one of the 60 Shih-Tzu who were surrendered by a breeder. She is a shy 6yo little girl. Despite her living conditions before arriving, she's sweet as can be. She has become curious but is still skittish and startles very easily. Surprisingly she is really good with the younger child in the house. She would probably do OK with well-behaved, somewhat calm children. Does not do well with sudden movements or noises She was a little bit shy around the other dogs in the home when she arrived but is now getting along with dogs and cats of all sizes, including the foster family's big dog! She is eats well… Goes in her crate during the day when no one is home but prefers to cuddle at night. She always wants to be with her favorite people. She loves to give kisses or nose touches and always wants to know where everyone is. She is not 100% housebroken yet and is still learning to walk on a leash. She actually lost the most hair of the dogs we took in so her hair still looks a little sparse, but it is growing back and she is starting to look very cute. She is vaccinated, HW negative, spayed and micro-chipped. If you are interested in meeting Sprite our application can be found at www.homesfurhounds.org. She is located in Williamsburg, Va.

Dr. Pepper is now available! She is one of the 60 Shih-Tzu who were surrendered by a breeder. Dr. Pepper is a shy 3yo little girl. Despite her living conditions before arriving, she's sweet as can be. She has become curious but startles very easily. The sofa is her current safe space, and she spends a lot of time there. Dr. Pepper is a "velcro" dog and does not like to be alone. She does get a bit anxious and shakes if her person leaves her sight. She does not like being on a leash, but when taken out, she quickly does her business and heads for the door. For the most part, she is doing very well with housebreaking and has only had a few accidents. Given how easy Dr. Pepper startles a quieter home with no young children would be best. She would do O.K. in a home with another laid-back dog her size to show her how to be a dog. She has suffered significant hair loss due to flea infestation. While a lot of her hair has started growing back and she looks much better, we can not guarantee that it all will. But we think she looks cute just like she is. Dr. Pepper has been spayed, is up to date on vaccinations, micro-chipped and HW negative. We know the right home is out there for this young, sweet girl. If you are interested in meeting her our application can be found at www.homesfurhounds.org. She is located in Williamsburg.
