Story
**Current Location: at a private boarding house in South Korea** Meet Sunny with a story of miracles👋 Sunny was found on a street in South Korea at one year old in 2018 and taken to a high-risk shelter, but she was already in serious condition presumably caused by a car accident. Her pelvis was fractured, and her right hind leg bone was broken into pieces. She was saved from euthanasia by the rescue team and hospitalized for months (Jun-Sep 2018) due to the surgery and recovery. She was miraculously given a new life thanks to the rescue. That same year, after a few months of foster period, Sunny found a forever home, which was another miracle we thought of back then. Five years later, however, the rescue team got an unknown phone call requesting to change Sunny's ownership. Long story short, her family decided to give up on her after years, sent her to an organization, and paid the organization, all this without discussing with the rescue team. This organization basically receives pets from owners and in turn, sells them out, and to do so with Sunny, they needed to have Sunny's ownership switched from the rescue team to the organization so they contacted the rescue team, and that’s how the rescue team learned Sunny's situation. Eventually, Sunny was able to safely return to her original rescue team, which is another miracle in her story. Despite all these setbacks, Sunny's sweet nature and zest for life shine bright. She needs one true chance to find her real forever family that loves her unconditionally. > Personality: Sweet, Playful, Sociable Sunny thrives on love and affection and gets along with all people and furry friends, making her the perfect companion for anyone seeking a lovely and affectionate fur buddy. She is such a cuddle bug! She likes snuggly cushions and blankets. > Affinity with - Dogs: Gets along well with other dogs - Cats: Not tested - Adults/Kids: Good with adults / Not tested for kids > Walking Manners: very good > Housetrained: fully housebroken, okay with both pee-pads and outdoors. > Bathing/Brushing: very good > Car Rides: very good > Separation Anxiety: None > Barks/Howls: she barks when excited or when she wants something. > Appetite/Food Allergies: No allergies > Shedding level (1~10): 5-6 > Health Issues: Due to the serious injuries that she got from an accident right before rescue, her pelvis is not perfectly placed (incomplete union of iliac) even after she had a surgery immediately after being rescued. However, currently she doesn’t show signs of pain when walking or running. If you have an open heart and a loving home for Sunny, please don't hesitate to apply!

Story
**Current location: in a foster home in South Korea** Meet Gae-doong👋 a beautiful long-haired chihuahua! While his previous senior owner was ill, he was rescued. > Personality: With a very gentle and mild nature, he likes being petted. At the same time, he is quite independent. Since he quickly acclimated to the current foster home, he would adjust to any home well. > Affinity with - Dogs: He is not much interested in other dogs. He is rather indifferent. - Cats: Not tested - Adults/Kids: He is not shy with new people. / Not tested for kids > Walking Manners: Very good. He doesn't pull the leash. Walks once a day for 30 mins. He gets nervous in new places or loud situations but continues the walk well when you pull the leash slightly while calling his name. > Housetrained: Housebroken, mostly using indoor pee-pads. > Bathing: good > Separation Anxiety: He only whimpers for the first 5 minutes when people leave home and rests for the rest of the time. > Barks/Howls: A little barks very occasionally toward outside noises. > Appetite/Food Allergies: Dog food for weight loss/ No allergies. > Shedding level (1~10): 5 > Energy level (1~10): 3 > Likes/Dislikes: Henry loves people and treats! / Nothing particular to dislike > Health Issues: Since he likes to eat, his weight needs attention to be maintained. If you have an open heart and a loving home for Gae-doong, please don't hesitate to apply!

Story
****ADOPTION APPLICATION HERE*** Hi, my name is Ducky! My siblings and I were dropped off at a local kill shelter because my old parents said they didn’t want puppies. We weren’t given much of a chance to make it since we were so young and the shelter was not really equipped to handle tiny babies. The ladies there were so nice and saw that we were fed and watered and kept warm and then called CARE. CARE took us in and now we are doing great -running playing and can start looking for our forever home. I’m a 4 pound Chihuahua mix who is just turning 8 weeks old. I am happy loving and excited to start my new life. To find out more information on this dog please apply to adopt on our website at www.caretx.org/adopt and CARE will be in touch with you ASAP! This dog was rescued from a kill shelter or the streets and has been evaluated for medical and temperament to prepare for a forever home and is in a foster home in San Antonio, Texas* and is ready to fly to its final destination once adopted. The adoption fee of $995 covers age appropriate vaccinations, health certificate, micro chip, the kennel it travels in, and air transport. * CARE rescue is in San Antonio, TX where we have a serious pet overpopulation situation. CARE is a non profit 501c3 rescue that has been saving lives for 14 years and with your adoption, we can help save even more deserving urgent adoptable pets! We fly our pets to approved adopters all over the US, especially in low kill and no kill markets where there is a demand for rescue pets!

Story
Say hi to Robbie, a white-coated, sweet-faced 9-year old, 11-pound Chihuahua mix who is just too handsome for words! Robbie gets along beautifully with other dogs and cats, and he’s at his most playful when he’s got another pooch to horse around with. In fact, you’ll marvel at how puppy-like Robbie can be! When Robbie becomes excited, he can get a bit mouthy - - and while he means zero harm, an adult-only home or one with older kids would be best suited for Robbie. He’s just a quirky pipsqueak who acts like he’s still teething sometimes! When Robbie feels like chilling out, he enjoys being pet and scratched. His beautiful coat is warm and snuggly and ohhhh-soooo-soft to the touch. His shedding is minimal and he barks only when he’s having a convo with his doggie pals. Hey, wanna play woof me? OK, arf be right there! ;-) When it comes to food, Robbie’s ALL in. And treats? This guy will eat anything! Which will come in handy, because Robbie’s still got a few things to figure out, and being treat motivated always helps. In terms of his bathroom habits, Robbie does his number 2’s outside, but he needs more training for pee-pee time. Currently he wears a belly band to alleviate that issue, but he’s also pad trained and crate trained, which is great! Robbie enjoys getting fresh air, but he’s inexperienced at walking on a leash or going in the yard by himself. When it’s time to go out, Robbie prefers to follow another dog out if that’s an option, or he’ll just wait for you to pick him up. Uppy, uppy, hoooman! This funny ‘lil meatball just needs some time and patience to iron out his kinks, but he’ll get there, and when he does, you’ll be so happy you put in the effort. If you give Robbie the love he deserves and the confidence he needs, he’ll give you the world! If you would like to adopt this wonderful dog, please email rescue@pupstarzrescue.org or visit www.pupstarzrescue.org for an application!

Story
Hello there, little fella! Meet Henley, a cute-as-a-button 8-year old, 11-pound Chihuahua/Terrier mix who looks as though he’s wearing brown eyeliner! How adorable is he? A true nature lover, Henley lovvvves spending time outside. He’s good on a leash and happy to trot along next to you, while enjoying the sights, sounds and smells of the great outdoors. He’s learning where and when to relieve himself, and now that he’s established a regular routine, he’s becoming much more reliable. Henley is a big fan of squeaky toys and also likes to nuzzle with his humans. He loves to stretch out while you pet him or rub his belly. If you feel like scratching his head, his ears, or his chin…sign him up…he’s into that too! Henley doesn’t know any commands as of yet, but he’s treat-driven and seemingly clever, so working with him on basic obedience should prove to be very rewarding. An approval seeker, Henley thrives on positive reinforcement and his tail wags back and forth when you tell him what a good boy he is. He’s still got some learning to do, but if are willing to cut this guy a little slack and show him love, kindness, understanding, and patience, he will NOT let you down.
