Story
Sam came into rescue with his Pomeranian fur brother after their owner was evicted. He was the mighty protecter of his shy brother. He can be a little nippy in the beginning until he feels safe, so we would recommend a home with older children. He loves to go on car rides and leash walks. He has finally learned to go for a potty break off leash in the fenced yard. He has now been completely vetted. He did wear a belly band until after he was neutered to stop marking. He loves to run and play chase with the other small dogs. He seems to prefer the ladies. He is fostered in East TN, but transportation is included in the adoption fee and provided by Rescue Riders LLC. Please let me know if you have any questions. Please email us for the link to the adoption application

Story
Meet Doris! This adorable 7lb Chorkie is pure love in a tiny package! She's a sweet girl who lives for her people and wants nothing more than to be by your side through every moment of the day. She gets along wonderfully with other dogs and children, making her the perfect addition to almost any home. When you're relaxing, she'll happily curl up in your lap for endless snuggles. But the best part of your day? Coming home to her signature "tappy dance"—her excited little paws expressing pure joy that you're finally back where you belong: with her! She would do best in a home that is calm, she is sensitive to noise and will bark when she hears loud noises. She does tend to bark at the male in the home, so maybe a single female with or without kids would suit her best. If you're looking for a loyal, affectionate little shadow who'll fill your days with love and your evenings with cuddles, this special girl is waiting to make your house feel like home. Apply to make her your forever bestie! https://peaceloveandpawsrescue.com/adopt%2Ffoster-application

We do our best to provide information that will help determine if the animal might be a good fit for you. Please note that behaviors may change in a home environment.

We do not have the resources to respond to emails with more specific questions.We are receiving an unusually high number of applications at this time! Applications are reviewed as they are received, but we do not select adopters on a first-come basis. Our job is to ensure each pet is placed into the best fit home for them and that adopters are paired with an animal that is a good fit for their lifestyle. All animals will stay online until they are “pending adoption”. Therefore, if an animal is still listed, we are still accepting applications for him/her! Please do not send inquiries about a specific animal's availability as this can change quickly over the course of the day. The fastest way to get a response is to simply submit an application! We will do our best to notify you by email if the pet(s) you are interested in are no longer available.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Mwanna is a very sweet, 8 year old chihuahua.  She is blind but gets around fairly well once she learns the lay out. She is friendly and loves to be around people. She is happy to snuggle on the couch. She is very calm and rarely barks unless she is locked up away from people.  She can’t see so even if you are nearby, she can’t tell, so she calls out for you. She is working on housebreaking.  She goes potty outside if taken out on a regular basis and does use piddle pads.  She is very fond of her daughter, Delilah.  It would be nice if they could stay together. With love and attention, Mwanna would make a perfect pet. No history with cats, older children and physical fence required.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.  ********************************************************************************** We show some of our adoptable dogs at PetSmart, Utica, each Saturday between the hours of 11:00am and 3:00pm.  Cats typically don't do well at events, so they only attend with a pre-approved meet and greet appointment. If you are interested in a particular pet, we suggest you email: mmarpaws@gmail.com to see if that pet will be there.   Applications are approved on the basis of the best and most appropriate home for the animal, not on a first come, first served basis.
