Story
I melt some hearts, I bite some ankles. My name is Kai and I will charm you with my good looks and reel you in with my cuddles. I love belly rubs too! I am a special little guy, but I'm not without flaws. I am currently working on myself. I realize that I need professional behavior help and training so I require a home that will be invested in getting me the help I need. For me this looks like being the only pet and only child. I'll need you to drive me to appointments with the veterinary behaviorist once in a while and I'll need to take some medication. You'll get to watch me grow as I learn to trust and get my life in order. I don't want to be lonely and shuffled from home to home any longer so we both need to be committed to making this work. I'll need you to be understanding and I will try my best to listen, please you, and be a good boy. XoXo -Kai *Kai requires an adopter with extensive dog behavior knowledge and experience. My adoption fee is $375 and includes the following: -Spay/neuter surgery -All current vaccinations -Microchip -FREE wellness exam through VCA Animal Hospitals -$25 gift voucher from our friends at My Pet Market For more information about me or to schedule a meet and greet appointment, please complete an adoption questionnaire.

Story
Please contact Constance (connibouchard@gmail.com) for more information about this pet.Important InformationPlease 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.  Hi! My name is ivy and I am a beautiful Yorkie/Cairn girl who is 1 year old, and I weigh  8 pounds.  I am very sweet, but also very shy. I am dainty, gentle, and love to be petted. I am a quiet girl who loves to lay in doggy beds with the other dogs in my foster home. I will need a fenced in yard because I am not comfortable on a leash. I do love to play so another young dog in my home that is playful is a requirement. If you have been waiting for a sweet, calm girl to love, please ask for me on your application to http://www.breederadoptions.org. Love, IvyJanuary 28, 2025, 11:18 pm

Story
Mildred’s journey to a better life began in an unexpected way. We were at the emergency vet for another rescue when we crossed paths with this sweet senior Yorkshire Terrier mix. Poor Mildred fur was matted, and her little mouth was in terrible shape due to severe dental disease. But with a much-needed grooming, dental surgery, and a spay, she’s finally feeling like her best self and ready to find her forever home! Mildred is a true character. She’s curious, independent, and full of charm—a little lady with a big personality! She loves to explore her surroundings but also enjoys curling up for some quiet time with her favorite humans. Despite her tough start, Mildred has so much love to give and is excited to share her golden years with a family who will treasure her. If you think you’re the loving, patient home that Mildred has been waiting for, we’d love to hear from you! Submit an adoption application at skysanctuaryrescue.org/applications. Once your application is received, we’ll be happy to answer your questions and arrange a meet and greet. Mildred is on her way to a bright new chapter—could you be the one to make it complete? ❤️

Story
Cliff and Chariot are adorable Yorkie mixes (more than (75% Yorkie). They were surrendered by a family who had too many dogs. They are learning about being house pets for the first time. They are very attached to each other but also get along with other dogs. They are initially a bit shy but not exactly fearful. They warm up quickly and are really sweet and attentive but not overly needy. They are so deserving of a kind loving home of their own. They are smart and eager to make you happy. They are almost 1 1/2 years old and weigh approximately 12 lbs. Their coats are easy to maintain and do not require frequent trips to the groomer. They will still need to learn a bit more in the potty training department but they are using the dog door and are very smart! Cliff and Chariot’s combined adoption fee is $700. This fee includes at least one health exam at our veterinarian while in our care, altering, all vaccinations including rabies (as permitted by age), a pre-adoption professional grooming and a microchip with lifetime membership that never will cost you a fee. All dogs also leave with a new collar and or harness and leash as well as a gift bag which includes among other things, a starter bag of the quality kibble that is being fed at the rescue. Adoption fees also allow us the ability to put funds towards the next homeless or unwanted dog in need of rescue!

Name: Missi  Age: 5 years  Sex: Spayed Female  Breed: Maltese  Weight: 5lbs  Adoption fee: $375.00 (altered, vaccines up to date, microchipped, vet checked) Location: In foster, please fill out an application at azsmalldog.org/adoption-form Compatibility with other dogs: Unknown  Compatibility with cats: Unknown  Compatibility with kids: Unknown  Energy level: Moderate  Hi! I'm Missi. I am a super sweet gal who is basically a princess. I have been looking for a castle to call my own, maybe yours will be the prefect one for me!? I have lived in a home most of my life so I know most the rules of the house so adjustment shouldn't be much of an issue. I am a tiny little thing so I am hoping my new family will spoil me with all the treats and cuddles. I really love to cuddle. I probably would not mind having a furry friend or two around, as long as they will respect my boundaries until we can establish a bond. I probably would not mind having a human sibling around either to play and love on too! If you think your family is the prefect kingdom for me, put in an application and my foster will be in touch!     **DON'T FALL VICTIM TO FRAUD - Scammers have been responding to comments asking individuals to private message them for more information or post spam sites.
