My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Hi everybody!

I'm Maizie! I am approximately 2 years old and 6 lbs. I'm vaccinated, spayed, dewormed, and microchipped. I love attention and will climb right up onto your lap. I love to eat and am very vocal when you don't fix my food fast enough. I prefer wet food over dry food, and I like to graze on dry food throughout the day. I love my little red kitty bed that hides me when those annoying dogs bark. I am very playful, and I adore springs and small balls. Oh, I like to hiss when I am introduced to new cats - just to let them know what's what. But I warm up if they don't get on my last nerve. If I get adopted by an only cat home, that would also work for me. I use my litter box that is covered with no flap. Please adopt me! I need a permanent lap to curl up on.March 27, 2024, 4:11 am

Additional adoption info

All of our animals come fully vaccinated and spayed or neutered (if old enough), and microchipped. Puppies and kittens will be spayed/neutered and have all shots when they are old enough. There is an Adoption application, a quick phone interview to make sure it is a good fit, a meet and greet with the dog, then a home check, and an adoption contract. We ask for a $400 donation for adult dogs, and $500 for puppies at the time of adoption so that we can save other dogs from the shelter. The first step is to fill out an app here: https://thelittlereddog.org/adoption-form

More about this rescue

Dogs are man's best friend, but it is not always the other way around. The Little Red Dog was founded in memory of a little red American Pit Bull Terrier who did not make it. If you are familiar with the Michael Vick dog fighting case chronicled in The Lost Dogs: Michael Vick's Dogs and Their Tale of Rescue and Redemption. The Little Red Dog was brutally beaten to death by Vick and his cronies because she didn't want to fight.

The Little Red Dog rescues dogs; red, blue, tan, white, brown, black and all colors in between. We do not discriminate against ANY breed; that's because we are a real rescue, and we will help as many animals as we can. Our primary goal is to get them into loving homes. Our hope that some day all of them make it, but most of all, we will never forget the Little Red Dog and many others who did not.
