My story

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

This is Tootsie fka Muffy! She’s a maltipoo and is about 8 years old. She weighs about 18 pounds. She’s potty trained and crate trained but not leash trained. She freezes up completely when a leash is put on her so a fenced in yard is a must. She has to be in the same as me at all times but does not like to interact much with me. She’s still terrified of sudden movements and sounds so it would be best if she had a house with no young kids. Muffy is very sweet once she gets comfortable. She’s being fostered with Nicole in Janesville Wi. She’s not vetted yet. Please contact Nicole with any questions nhermanson.1284@yahoo.com. Adoption fee of $450 is required.

More about this rescue

Tiny Paws Small Dog Rescue was born out of my love for small dogs and desire to help those in need, and in memory of the loss of a dear family member. Dealing frequently with small breed puppies and retired breeder moms, we strive to find homes that are aware of the commitment to raising a small breed dog and to the patience needed in socializing and housebreaking a retired breeder mom who has no idea what life in a home is all about. We are foster home based and are always looking for new foster homes to help us continue our love of rescuing dogs in need. We are happy to assist in owner surrender placements, especially those in need of surrendering their small dogs due to financial hardships, loss of a loved one, or dog owner entering assisted living facilities or nursing homes. We pride ourselves with a thorough search for that perfect home for a dog in need and follow up with phone calls to ensure things are going well. Tiny Paws will take back an adopted dog should the need arise within a reasonable notice and an available foster home has an open spot. Our goal is to someday own a building to house even more canine companions in need. We look forward to helping you find your family pet.
