Story
LES NESSMAN IS NOT AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION! Les Nessman recently had his yearly. He lost one tooth but everything else looked great :) Donations are always appreciated!  Les came to us a few years ago. He is a behavioral case. Les is unpredictable and he will bite. It is sort of surprising just how hard this little guy can bite at just under 7lbs. He bit through my husband's thumbnail. He also needs a quiet environment because if anything is going on outside, he tends to bark until he gives himself tracheitis.  Over time we have learned when to jump. We know which muzzles work best and we have perfected the blanket scoop. For these reasons, we do not feel it is in his best interests to place him for adoption. Donations to maintain his care are appreciated. Even snarky little dogs need vet care and monthly preventions.  TLC Rescue is a reputable, all volunteer 501c3. We have the 2024 Silver Seal and we are a 2024 Top Rated Nonprofit by GreatNonprofits.   Direct link to donate via @paypal https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=XDXKJ9SFBXW6U Or paypal to teresaslegacy.sue@gmail.com  Mailing TLC Rescue, PO Box 112, Clearfield, KY 40313   TLC Rescue is proud to be part of For All Paws Sake.

This young fellow has lots of energy but he's soooo sweet and loveable too. Chihuahua's are well known for their attachment to their families, their short coats make them hypo allergenic and Ive heard they are great family members to folks that have asthma...All that good in one little package of about 8 lb...

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Matilda is a senior lady looking for a soft spot to land for her golden years.  We are unsure of her exact age as she was found as a stray covered in fleas with little to no hair.  After months in foster care her skin is now healing and her hair is growing back.  Matilda spends her days napping in your lap under a blanket or beside you in the floor on a dog bed.  She prefers to be right in your lap.  She is working on house training to pee pads.  This little lady has bad hips knees and can not do steps.  She only has a few remaining teeth.  Matilda does have some mammary tumors that are not causing her any harm.  Due to her age the vets feel it’s best to not put her under anesthesia at this time.  Matilda did have some basic bloodwork done all of it came back in the normal range.  Matilda can co-exist with other animals who will give her her space and who don’t run all around and pester her.  She would do best with other kids due to her age and size.   Estimated DOB:   11/12/2011 Adoption fee: $ 100(6% KY sales tax included)  We would love to hear from you! To inquire about this dog, please contact us via this site, visit our website sc4paws.org to see a full bio, or visit sc4paws.rescuegroups.org/forms/ to fill out our adoption application.

Story
🚨 We can’t believe WINNIE is still looking for her forever home! 🚨 This amazing mama raised her three puppies (all adopted!) and now it’s her turn to be spoiled and loved. 💕 Winnie is a classic terrier — full of spunk, smarts, and hunting instincts! She can catch mice AND birds, loves to run and play, and ends her day snuggled under the blankets with her person. She takes a little time to warm up to new people, but once she does, she’s incredibly loyal and affectionate. ✅ Great with dogs big and small — she’d love a playful dog buddy ✅ Good with cats (but may chase them off the bed for fun!) 🚫 Not a good match for rabbits, chickens, or small prey animals ✅ Good with horses and cattle ✅ Has done well with kids in foster care ✅ Potty & crate trained (but watch your shoes 👟) Breed: Rat Terrier mix (puppies were DNA tested) Spayed, HW negative, vaccinated, UTD on prevention 17 lbs, short legs + long body = 100% adorable Adoption Fee: $250 https://www.blackcatanimalrescue.org/adoption-applications
