George is a very sweet and loyal pooch to the ones he loves. He's slow to warm up to new people so his new owners will need to be understanding of that. He's been good with the dogs and cats in the foster home. Because he's shy we think it's best he go into an adult only home.George is snuggly and a fabulous lap warmer._________________________________________________________________________Adoption Donation for George is $ 525.00WANT TO MEET GeorgeThe first step would be for you to go to our website at www.aear.org and then to the “Adopting a Pet” page to read about our Adoption Process which will answer many of your questions and then to fill out an Adoption Application.Also, please visit our very active Facebook Page for updates on George and our other adoptable pets with AEAR - www.facebook.com/aear.orgAll our animals available for adoption are living in foster homes.

CJ is full of life and love. He is a sweet, affectionate young dog who gets along well with other dogs and everyone he meets. He is an ACTIVE guy that will need a home willing to give him lots of exercise and work with him on discipline and manners. He doesn't do anything 'bad', but boy oh boy, is he busy! So, if you're looking for a jogging/hiking/long-distance walking partner, he'd love to accompany you anywhere you go!_________________________________________________________________________Adoption Donation for Cubby Joe is $ 425.00WANT TO MEET Cubby JoeThe first step would be for you to go to our website at www.aear.org and then to the “Adopting a Pet” page to read about our Adoption Process which will answer many of your questions and then to fill out an Adoption Application.Also, please visit our very active Facebook Page for updates on Cubby Joe and our other adoptable pets with AEAR - www.facebook.com/aear.orgAll our animals available for adoption are living in foster homes.

Story
Everything is possible with a 'Little Bit' of love! Our Little Bit is a senior who came to us with a large hernia. Our wonderful vet removed the hernia and spayed Little Bit. She is slowly warming up in her foster home. The way to Little Bit's heart is through treats. Little Bit needs a lot of patience and love. She is about 4 pounds which presents some challenges. Like many of us, Little Bit hates going out in the cold. She stands and shakes. She has arthritis and needs supplements and possibly daily medication. She also has to be carried up and down the stairs of her foster home. At 12-14 years old, she is too arthritic to climb. Little Bit is not housebroken and she doesn't care for pee pads unless she is confined to an area with them. Like many dogs her size, she finds strangers scary and often greets them with snaps and lunges. She can adjust to new people with time and patience. Little Bit currently lives with dogs and cats. Due to her small size, a home with small dogs would be best. She'd also be fine as an only pet. Little Bit's ideal home is quiet with family members who will carry her around and treat her like a baby._________________________________________________________________________Adoption Donation for Little bit is $ 525.00WANT TO MEET Little bitThe first step would be for you to go to our website at www.aear.org and then to the “Adopting a Pet” page to read about our Adoption Process which will answer many of your questions and then to fill out an Adoption Application.Also, please visit our very active Facebook Page for updates on Little bit and our other adoptable pets with AEAR - www.facebook.com/aear.orgAll our animals available for adoption are living in foster homes.

Story
Maggie Mae may be a little older. She may walk a little funny. She may be a skinny little thing (we are working on that.) She does have a big heart and a loving soul. Her foster mom says she is adjusting to life in her home and is doing well. This sweet girl deserves to live out her golden years with a loving family._________________________________________________________________________Adoption Donation for Maggie Mae is $ 400.00WANT TO MEET Maggie MaeThe first step would be for you to go to our website at www.aear.org and then to the “Adopting a Pet” page to read about our Adoption Process which will answer many of your questions and then to fill out an Adoption Application.Also, please visit our very active Facebook Page for updates on Maggie Mae and our other adoptable pets with AEAR - www.facebook.com/aear.orgAll our animals available for adoption are living in foster homes.
