Story
Meet Yank. He’s 9 pounds, 8 months old, and a Parson Russel Terrier Mix. At 15 weeks old, Yank had a hole in his mouth and burns on his lips. He had bruising, extreme inflammation, deep cuts and two holes around his muzzle. Someone put a rubber band on Yank’s mouth and left it there to cause these injuries. Additionally, from the band being tight, it played havoc on his teeth. His cheeks rubbing on them caused his gums to wear away. All of this before he was 15 weeks old. Now? This boy is perfect. He has healed which took a while but he’s playful, loves friends, runs like crazy, plays with toys and is happy on your lap. It’d be great if Yank had a friend around his size because he loves to play and wrestle. Yank is looking for his perfect family now. Contact us at medicalanimalsinneed@gmail.com with any questions or go to medicalanimalsinneed.com and fill out our adoption application. Yank is up to date on shots, is microchipped, and has been neutered. His adoption fee is $300.

Story
Meet Max – A Loving, Gentle Companion Max is a sweet, affectionate dog who has been a cherished member of our family for the past seven years. We adopted him from a local shelter, and he has rewarded us every day with his loyalty, gentle nature, and loving personality. Max is approximately eight years old and still enjoys spending time with his people, whether that's relaxing at home or going for a walk. He is well-behaved, listens well, and has a calm, friendly temperament. Max understands his boundaries around the home, but when outside of his designated area, he does best on a leash to keep him safe. This is an incredibly difficult decision for our family, but due to an upcoming move, we need to find Max a loving new home. He deserves a family who will give him the same love and care he has enjoyed with us over the years. If you're looking for a loyal, gentle, and devoted companion, Max may be the perfect addition to your family.

Story
Finnegan was a gift from a student along with his brother Linus as 8 week old pups. They are both very sweet puppies with high energy and lots of love to give. I have a senior dog that needs a lot of attention and I work full-time. Finnegan and his brother are 1 1/2 years old. They will be due for their next shots.Potty trained for outside and pee pads in home. They are competitive for attention and over toys. Would make a nice individual pet as well. If I had a home and didn’t work full time, I would definitely keep them both. Thank you for your interest in Finnegan.

Story
Cosmo is apart of a litter of 11 our female had two years ago. We were able to find forever homes for most but still have 6 of the puppies we need to find families for. Cosmo was named after Cosmo from Superman. She is our energetic adventurer and loves to explore. She loves to jump and "talk" at you when she is feeling extra excited. She does get along well with her littermates but hasn't really been around other dogs. She doesn't really like cats but has never shown any aggression. She loves to cuddle and play in water.

Story
Milo was rescued when he was puppy at 8 weeks old. He was the runt of the litter and he needs lots of love and attention as he will let you know when he's ready to be next to you. He is definitely a dog that needs a one dog family home. He loves walks, playing fetch, and loves to chew. He would need an active owner who can keep him busy. Sadly, we're having to rehome him but want him to go to a good home.
