Story
Get off my lawn, unless you are here to feed me! Meet Finn! He is a 6-to-9-year-old Chihuahua/Terrier mix. He weighs 20 pounds. He is essentially a tiny, furry retired man living in a world full of people who talk too loud. Finn is not a "just add water" dog. He will not immediately love your cousin. He will not perform tricks for your friends. He is low-key spicy. He requires an estate manager (you) who understands boundaries. 🚫 The House Rules Stranger Danger: Strangers are exhausting. When guests arrive, put Finn in his crate. He will come out on his own terms. Quiet Only: He thrives in a calm house. No wild parties. No chaotic schedules. Dog Friends: He is good with other dogs, and requests they share his low-key vibe. Think sitting on a porch in silence. No frat parties. Feline Roommates: He lives with cats. He enjoys their company. One did beat him up once. Please do not bring this up to him. It is a sore subject. ☀️ The Good Stuff Once you make the cut, Finn is your boy. He bonds deeply. He is a sweet companion. He loves attention from his inner circle. His favorite hobby is property inspection. He loves sniffing around outside. He takes his backyard security job very seriously. If you want a dog to take to crowded breweries, keep scrolling. If you want a tiny roommate to judge the neighborhood with, Finn is your man. If Finn floats your boat, email therescueinn@gmail.com AND complete an adoption application here: https://therescueinn.com/adoption-application.html

Coco loves her walks and will even tell her foster mom when it’s walk time! This little Chihuahua mix is happy to nap on the couch or go for a long walk - as long as she’s with her person. She does well with her foster cat siblings. She is good with respectful older kids but hasn’t been tested around toddlers. We are working on potty training and she is almost there! She loves going for a ride in the car! Fill out an application at www.maggiesmissionrescue.org

Story
Meet Bootsie: The 9-Year-Old Diva Who’s Done Tolerating Nonsense Listen up, dog lovers — Bootsie has arrived, and she’s not here to play games (unless it involves treats). This 9-year-old queen weighs in at a mighty under-20 pounds, which is impressive considering the sheer size of her personality. She’s house trained, leash-ready, and will absolutely love you unconditionally — as long as you follow her very reasonable list of rules. Her Rules: Rule #1: Do NOT pick her up. She is not a purse dog. She is a dignified woman. Rule #2: Hands off the back and sides. She didn’t say you could touch there. Rule #3: Bring snacks. Always bring snacks. She is highly food motivated and will respect you more for it. Bootsie does have a small lump on her shoulder, but don’t worry — the vet confirmed it’s benign. It’s basically her villain origin story scar, and it only makes her cooler. She gets along great with other dogs, as long as they mind their business. Confrontational dogs? Hard pass. She needs an adult-only home with a fenced yard — because children are chaotic and Bootsie deserves peace. In return for your patience and respect, Bootsie will reward you with fierce loyalty, couch cuddles on her terms, and the honor of being chosen by a dog who has standards. Apply at www.rescue330.org — if you think you’re worthy. Bootsie's adoption fee is $150. She is spayed, up-to-date on vaccines, microchipped, and current on heartworm & flea prevention.
