Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Meet Abby. She is one of the 7 we took in from a hoarding case where the dogs were only fed bread and water.  The bread was still in the bag.  Her personality has really come out since she came to the rescue. She takes a little time to get used to new people, but once she does she is yours.  She  is a love bug, enjoys her dog friends, and likes to run around in our play yard. Abby was born around 08/2018, she weighs 18 pounds, and is  $300 to adopt.   You can apply for Abby at www.adoggie4you.org. This dog is currently in Texas; however, it can be transported to Washington, Portland (Oregon), Minneapolis, Milwaukee, Chicago, Des Moines, Omaha, Cincinnati, Lexington KY or all along the East Coast. If transported, there is an additional transport fee of $225   . We do not transport to Rhode Island or Massachusetts due to their regulations.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.March 26, 2024, 4:19 pm

Story
**CURRENTLY IN A FOSTER HOME**Bailey is a quirky, inquisitive, goofy and extremely lovable dog. She's been dealt a tough hand in life which has given her anxiety around new people and surroundings. However once she warms up to you, her love and excitement are boundless! She is dog friendly but she loves her humans so much that she should be an only dog. This girl is worth cracking that shy exterior and she will bring your home so much joy! She is also potty trained and can be left out alone without chewing. Content to lay by your feet while you work from home, she can entertain herself. She knows basic commands and is very smart which can sometimes make her stubborn with training, but we know that she will be successful with someone who wants to put in the work!

Story
Merlin was surrendered to Famous Fido Rescue by his former guardian who was moving and didn’t want to take him with. He was very heartbroken to be left behind. Merlin is such a sweet little guy, and loves getting cozy in a lap, and sunbathing outside. He’s very affectionate, and is lost without anyone to give his affection to.

Story
Here's looking at you kid!  Rita is a super sweet girl that  is around 1 year old and weighs about 30lbs. She is a friendly, playful, highly energetic girl that loves, loves, loves - did we say loves, other dogs and another in the home who enjoys playing, is young and active to keep up with her would be perfect! She can be vocal when wanting to play and for attention and a buddy would help with that too!  She is crate trained and house training is progressing to the point she will now alert her foster and head for the door. She is very good on walks but the sight of a potential playmate gets her excited.  Food is a super motivator for Rita and will make obedience training so much easier as she will work for her treats without hesitation!  With her high energy level and love for playing, a fenced yard would best suit her to help her exercise both body and mind!  Rita is very sweet, and because she had a rough start in life without guidance or training, she still acts like a puppy who hasn't learned all the basic 'people manners' yet and when she gets excited will be jumpy for attention. Kids should be 10+ years old and dog savvy so she doesn't accidentally bump into a little one. An active person, couple or family with patience, willingness to work with her and enroll in training classes will be greatly rewarded with a loyal, sweet, wonderful family member.     **Breed or size (once fully grown) is a 'best guess' and is not guaranteed since they arrived into rescue without either parent. **Magnificent Mutts is an all foster home based rescue and meets are held by appointment with the entire family in attendance. Please ensure your current pets are up to date with vetting, have landlord/HOA approval and are prepared to take your new family member home at the adoption appointment.  Thank you for your interest!                    If you are interested in adoption, please complete the "Application to Adopt" which can be accessed from this link: (   www.magnificentmutts.org )  No phone calls please, emails only. Adult dog adoption donations start at: $300 (cash only) Puppies adoption donations start at: $360 (cash only) Prices are subject to change, please contact for specific adoption donation. Please visit www.magnificentmutts.org for the online dog application. March 27, 2024, 11:16 am

Story
***In order to alleviate the need to bring an animal into the shelter environment, The Anti-Cruelty Society has the Home-to-Home Shelter Bypass service to help people find new accommodations for their pets privately. These animals are not located in any of the Society's physical locations. If you are interested in adopting this animal, please do NOT click the Adopt Me button and instead reach out to the current owner directly via the email provided in the profile. As this is a Home-to-Home animal you are not required to fill out an Anti-Cruelty Society adoption application form. ***Miles is a loving and intelligent 1 year old Boston Terrier male. Miles loves to go on sniffing adventures on walks, earn treats by following commands, and sleep on the couch. He responds immediately to his name, and is a great listener. Miles loves treats, so he responds very well to anyone that has a couple up their sleeve. Miles gets along best with women and children, and he loves receiving pets. Due to the stress that other dogs give him, Miles would be happiest in a home where he is the only dog. Miles is still getting used to men and will bark at men that he is unfamiliar with. Miles is not currently taking any medication and does not have any health issues. Miles is house trained and will let his owner know if he needs to go to the bathroom by standing near the door or going near his harness. Miles is not crate trained, does not have a microchip, and is not neutered. Miles would love to have a yard again, as he loves to exercise without seeing other dogs, but would also be okay with walks at quiet hours (early in the morning or later in the evening) to take care of his bathroom and exercise needs. Miles is a quick learner, and responds immediately to his name, and also knows the commands of sit, wait, leave it, and come. Ideally, Miles' new home would be in a quiet neighborhood or home, as Miles gets stressed out by hearing lots of movement and unfamiliar people. Miles has the classic Boston Terrier look, goofy personality, and mix of energy and laziness. Please reach out to phonetics1733@gmail.com for more information.
