Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Meet Lulu and Layla the mother-daughter duo! Lulu is about 3 years old and Layla is 2 years old. From we can tell they are a Chinese crested mix. They do love each other & cuddle all the time so if they could be adopted together we would prefer it. They are both house trained but tiny & can fit under the sofa if your not watching. They were not leash trained, so their foster is working on training them. Fill out an application today for these two ladies!Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.March 30, 2025, 8:40 pm

Story
Oh, Nyx....where do I begin. This girl is a special one! She came to us when our vet asked us to take in a special needs puppy. Nyx was born with hydrocephalus and the breeder didn't want her so she surrendered Nyx to our vet. Her hydrocephalus doesn't affect her health in any way now but we believe it has affected her personality. Nyx is a very special girl who will need a VERY special adopter. One who is patient and calm and willing to accept Nyx for who she is! Nyx wants affection on her terms but will run from you if you try to pick her up. You have to go low and slow so she won't run from you. Nyx will HAVE to have a fenced in yard for that very reason - if she got out you probably wouldn't get her to come back to you. Nyx likes other dogs but doesn't really know how to play with them and can mean to them when she's just trying to get them to play. We think all of her quirks are a direct result of her hydrocephalus. She can be so loving, but she is definitely a quirky one! Nyx will do best with older children or a quiet household. If you are the unicorn adopter we are looking for - who is willing to accept Nyx for who she is - please fill out our application at www.goofyfootrescue.org Nyx is in foster care in West TN and will be transported once her adoption is finalized.

Story
I adopted Kilo from ACCT Philly shortly after his 5th birthday (DOB 6/8/17). Kilo is outgoing and playful like a pup, however, sometimes he can be guarded. He’s anxious in new environments and when touched by strangers. He’s good w/ home baths, however, going to groomers has been difficult (especially nail and oral care). He has a bite history. He was doing good for almost 1.5yrs. However, bit a groomer Oct 2024 for pulling his leash. Add info: He snuggles on the couch and has been a great comfort. He’ll spend time in a crate when you’re away. He will use pads (currently I have his outside his crate), though sometimes he may have an accident. He enjoys chew toys. I’d like to rehome Kilo so that I can help raise my young godson. He’s a good boy who would benefit from having an experienced owner who could provide some TLC, in a home w/ no young children or other pets. Enclosed outdoor space would be a plus. You’ll get a harness, food, bowls, carrier + new crate.

Story
My friend's family picked them up from someone selling them at a gas station. I'm uncertain of their age, likely more than 10 years old. They like to pee on things when no one is looking, so they need to be walked a lot and not be left alone with things you don't want pee on. They will howl all day if left alone. I've only seen them rip apart underwear when left alone. They will eat q-tips and tissues. They will beg you for attention and love to sit in your lap while you watch movies. They walk slow with their tiny legs, so you must be patient. They don't play fetch or anything, they just demand your love. They are comfortable with strangers stopping to pet them in public as long as you are right there with them, and they've never bitten anyone. They've only ever barked on walks at people who run past them. They bark if they think you are hurting someone, like if you move quickly towards someone. Other than that they don't bark at other dogs, they just howl non stop when left alone.

Story
Picture this: a tranquil Sunday morning reading the paper, drinking tea, and watching the clouds roll by. Does this sound like heaven? If so, Marley just might be the guy for you. Marley is a distinguished older gentleman who wants to enjoy his golden years in a calm, relaxing home. He is a quiet, sweet boy who'd do well in a household with likeminded adults. Like a fine wine, he has only gotten better with age - just look at that frosty white snout!
