This sweetie is being fostered in East TN Athebs area. Out of state welcome. The adoption fee listed here on Adopt a pet includes the cost of transport. We use Rescue Riders for our pet transport needs because they are the best. Meet Pete! This little guy is super sweet once he gets to know you. He takes a little bit to warm up to new people. He eight years young. He’s active and spunky and also loving and sweet. He is good with most other dogs. No small children for this guy. He needs his space to be respected and most young children don’t understand this. Unsure about cats. His vet records show him as a French bulldog mix. He could be a chihuahua and frenchie mix. He is 16 lbs. he will need a family that understands the breed mix and how to show rules and boundaries without rules and boundaries he will take charge and be your leader and that is not what you want he needs to know you are his leader and you will take care of him.

Story
Introducing Harrison! He has come such a long way since we got him - he is a completely new dog. He came from a hoarding situation and we guess he never had any exposure to new people or anything outside of his home, nor much physical contact. He was so very scared and didn't want anything to do with being touched. Fast forward to now- where he can't get enough of petting, kissing and love. It is totally miraculous and he is such a brave boy. He is guessed to be around 7 years old and weighs 6.2 lbs. Unfortunately, he tested positive for heartworm, so he is undergoing treatment for that. We are hoping to find a family that will be able to help him through his final injections and provide a calm place for him to recover with lots of individualized attention and love. Recovery is basically strict exercise restriction to prevent an increase in his heart rate. Harrison's adoption donation of $395 helps cover the cost of his medical care. Adopters must live within a 1.5 hour driving distance from Romeoville, IL. Reference checks and a home visit is required. Please visit our website for the adoption application www.perfectpooches.org under the Adoption Process tab.

Story
Hi there, my name is Huey, and I am a Chihuahua/Schnauzer/Terrier mix about 7 years old. I have been in the rescue for quite some time as it takes me a little time to trust people. I was abused in my past so on my initial meet and greets with new people I am unsure, and sudden movements make me scared and I get barky and growly. Once I get to know you and trust you can't get rid of me, I am looking for someone that understands it takes time for trust and won't push. Once we are BFFs, I am the most loyal, fun, sassy and most of all cuddly friend. I am looking for my forever home with somebody who is either a stay at home, work from home, or retired as I like to be with my people as much as possible. I am completely up to date on my vetting which includes neutered, rabies vaccine, distemper vaccine, Bordetella, negative fecal, negative heartworm, and microchipped. My ideal home would be with a fenced yard, and no other dogs. (unless you are dog savvy and will take the time for slow introductions and separation for them to build a bond) If interested in meeting me, please go to the rescue's website www.atailof4paws.org and fill out the application. Once completed email or scan to rescue@atailof4paws.org
