Story
Betty and Bernie are a bonded, brother and sister. They are 8 years old and weigh less than 20 pounds. Betty and Bernie enjoy taking care of each other by washing each others faces. They are crate trained, and love sleeping in their crates as long as they can see each other. A sheet draped over both crates helps them block out nightly distractions. They love snuggling with humans and get along fine with cats. They are interested in other dogs but have not lived with a dog in a few years. They are up to date on vaccines and ready to live their golden years together surrounded by the love they deserve. Betty and Bernie were the cherished companions of an elderly gentleman who had to go into memory care and could no longer care for them. The adoption fee for Betty and Bernie is $200 each.

Story
I got Tito about 6 years ago when he was a puppy while I was in college! He is the best thing that has ever happened to me, due to recent work changes and being busy and traveling the country I do not have enough time or money to keep up with his ENORMOUS amount of energy! He has a lot of social anxiety and does NOT like other animals, I blame me for that as he does not get much socialization other than from me. I will disclose that he has lunged and snapped at a few people but has never broken skin on anyone he has had an attitude with. Overall he is an amazing dog, who just needs someone to love and take care of him! He is crate trained (but will bark his head off for a solid 20 mins when you leave) but he is overall an amazing dog once he gets to know you.

Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Little Andy is looking for the right person to give him forever family.Little Andy was found living as a stray. A homeless man was eventually able to get a piece of twine around his neck so he could be brought to safety. Based on his behavior, its likely Little Andy was not treated very kindly early in life.Because of that, he does not like to be picked upbut he absolutely loves being near his person. His favorite things are laying next to you while you watch TV and curling up nearby at bedtime.Little Andy enjoys the simple things in life: Laying in the sun Gathering his toys Watching the world go by from the window Getting very excited when his human comes homeHe can be a little bossy with other dogs, so he would need a very patient canine sibling or would also do well as the only dog soaking up all the attention.Little Andy will keep you safe from the Amazon drivers, happily jump in the car for rides, and enjoy short walks with his favorite person.His ideal home would be a quiet environment with someone looking for a loyal companion. Because its just too tempting to scoop up this adorable little guy, a home without children would be best.Little Andy may have had a rough start, but with the right person who understands him, he will be a devoted best friend for life. If youd like to meet Little Andy, apply at ricopetrecovery.org.Adoption Fee is $250.

Story
Meet Buddy. Buddy is a 2-year old chihuahua mix. He weighs 15 lbs. Buddy is neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, and heartworm tested. He is almost house broken. We don't know about Buddy's history. He was found as a stray in Dayton, OH area. We rescued him from the shelter. Buddy is very skittish. He is timid to places where he is not familiar with and may show fear aggression. We are looking for a quiet home for him. The adopter needs to be patient with Buddy. Buddy is fine with everybody. He usually stays away from the crowd and very quiet. However he has food aggression. He always fears that someone would take away his food/treats. Hence a home with children is not suitable for him. Once he is comfortable with you, he would come to greet you and let you to pet him. Buddy's adoption fee is $250. Please submit the adoption application at https://charlieswishanimalrescue.org for scheduling a meet and greet.
