Here's what the humans have to say about me:
***AVAIL NOW- I am in Yorkville IL awaiting my forever family***
Hi Everyone,
I'm Pocahontas and I am an adorable 18 month old Malshi Maltese/Shih Tzu and I am looking for my forever family.
I was rescued when my family gave me up to a High Kill Shelter in KY as they did not have the financial means to care for me properly. As you can see my skin is still very pink. I had fleas so bad that they were in my eyes. I had flea allergy dermetitis and let me tell you....it is very painful and extremely itchy. How could someone let me get this way? My rescue has gotten rid of my nasty fleas and bathes me with special shampoo and I am healing nicely now. I am such a sweet and loving little girl. I dance for you and I entertain my foster mom daily. She says that I'm her little angel girl :o)'
I am very very social, loving, sweet, friendly, have a great personality and disposition. I will make a wonderful family member.
I love attention, children and other animals. I am a living doll baby!!
Please add some love and happiness to your family and contact jbrescuerangers@yahoo.com for an adoption application and bring me home.
Once your approved you have the option of reserving/pre adopting me if you are already in love!
I will come with the works (Spayed, vaccinated, micro chipped, groomed, fecal, heart worm tested if age appropriate, flea and tick prevented, dental if needed, a free vet visit and medical insurance. What more could a new family ask for?
