Story
Hi there—I’m Goose! Yep… a dog named Goose. Pretty funny, right? 🐾 I’m a young pup with quite the story. I was found all alone in a big, scary forest by a kind-hearted mail carrier. She and one of her customers searched high and low to find my family—but it turns out, no one was looking for me. Lucky for me, she made sure I stayed safe and didn’t have to go to a shelter! Now I’m settling into my new surroundings and getting braver every day. I’ve even made fast friends with her four dogs—who are way bigger than me, by the way! I may be small, but I’ve got a big heart and a playful spirit. I am crate trained, playful & love other dogs. If you’ve got room in your home (and your heart) for a sweet, adventurous little guy like me… I’d love to meet you. 💛 If you'd like to find out more about making this gorgeous pup a member of your family & to see whether (s)he would be a good fit in your home, please fill out our adoption form here: https://airtable.com/shrlL2pbqSGTRJiyc *If you live in rented accommodation, please familiarise yourself with the property management's pet policy.

Story
Sweet Georgia is grieving; she lost her octogenarian owner last week & is feeling lost. She is a sweet, calm girl who is house-trained, has polite leash manners & gets along with other dogs & cats. She doesn't have experience with children but with her lovely temperament we believe she would be great with children 8+. She is spayed & has just had all her vaccines updated, fecal & heartworm tested (negative). She will go to her new family with a 6-month supply of heartworm, flea & tick preventatives! Georgia is around 50lbs & her family believe she is a Lab/Whippet mix (Labet? Whippador? LOL) What we know for sure is that she is an absolute Lovehound & will be a lovely companion. Can you heal this sweet girl's heart? This is a courtesy posting to ensure this pup lands in a great home & her adoption fee is minimal. The rescue will reach out to veterinarians, references, and property managers, as we would for dogs in our program. However, the adoption will be a private agreement between the carer and the adopter. The carer will provide all records at the time of adoption. If you'd like to find out more about making this gorgeous doggy a member of your family and to assess better whether (s)he would be a good fit in your home, please fill out our adoption form here: https://airtable.com/shrlL2pbqSGTRJiyc *If you live in rented accommodation, please familiarise yourself with the property management's pet policy before applying. All breed mixes listed are an educated guess; we didn't meet mom or dad!

Story
Primrose (Rosie) 5 year old fawn Min Pin 6.5 lbs., Docked tail, natural ears Fully vetted Owner surrender Rosie is a tiny bundle of energy in need of an active home. She has 2 speeds... Asleep or bouncing everywhere. She is crate trained. She does take daily Proin but is otherwise doing well with house training and alerts to needing to go outside most of the time. Due to her tiny size, she needs to go out every 1-2 hours. I was told she used pee pads to an extent in her prior home, but I have not tested that as I prefer not using them. She will do anything for food, so working with her is quite easy. She loves meeting new people and is completely loyal to her people. She constantly wants to be held or play. She is dog selective and gets along with dogs who are of similar size and not in her face. If dogs are more dominant, she does better, but submissive dogs are constantly bothered if they do not defend themselves. If you have other small dogs, we would definitely recommend bringing them to meet her. Because of the dog selectiveness, she would also thrive as an only dog where she can get all the attention. No kids under the age of 10 due to her size. We require for Rosie to have a secure fenced yard because that is all she has known her entire life. She does not want to do her business on leash. No apartments or condos. If interested in adopting Rosie, please complete our adoption application at: http://tinyurl.com/mpmrapp Note: All pets in the home must have a verifiable vet reference and must be spayed or neutered, up-to-date on vaccines, and on heartworm prevention.

Story
Poppy she's a two-year-old boxer mix. She loves to jump, cuddle, and ran around. She's not the biggest fan of people standing directly near her while she eats but she's fine with you being in the room with her. The reason why I have to surrender her is because my grandmother has a serious medical condition where she loses her balance and tends to fall. Because poppy likes to jump on people and run around it's a risk and a danger to my grandmother. I really need help rehoming her ASAP.

Story
I adopted Booger, a 3 year old Boston Terrier, from the local county animal shelter. Unfortunately it turns out she has special needs and I'm unable to take care of her properly with my schedule. I'm not sure what her story was before I adopted her since the shelter found her as a stray. She knows very basic commands (sit and 'come here') though she's highly treat motivated. She's potty trained, but does have the occassional accident if left for long hours. She is very friendly and absolutely loves people. She loves to play and really likes squeaky toys. She appears to be okay with other dogs, but I'm unsure about cats. She has some issues that were only discovered after her adoption. She has separation anxienty and does not do well at all if crated. She's had moderate success after being prescribed Trazodone. She often regurgitates her food, and so far we haven't found the cause. She will need an attentive owner with lots of time to take care of her special needs.
