Story
Hi! My name is Sadie but my foster mom likes to call me Lil Bunny cus I like to hop around when I’m outside. I'm a pretty 2 year old girl who loves to frolic and smell the flowers and grass. I love to be outside, but that’s because I spent my first year of life outside on a chain by myself. It was lonely and I didn’t know how great humans were until a couple took me in. It took me time, but I’ve learned I LOVE food and treats. I love to talk and tell my foster mom what I’m thinking and give her kisses. My foster mom has these little furry balls called cats and I’ve learned I like to chase them and they don’t like that. So I think it’s best if I go to a home without cats. As for dogs, I like to introduce myself slowly. Foster mom says I’m still working on manners, but making progress and I’m as sweet as a button once I get to know you. I’ve got a big heart, lots of energy and would love to have a family of my own ?? If you are interested in meeting Sadie, please fill out an application via our website at https://therescueproject.net/adoption-application and we will get back to you via email once your application has been reviewed. If you have further questions please feel free to reach out to us at adoptionstrp@gmail.com. Sadie's adoption fee is $100 and includes age appropriate vaccines, spay, microchip, deworm, heartworm testing.

Story
Espresso is such a sweet and playful girl. She is 1 year old and is a total wiggle butt. She is super smart and is progressing very well with learning indoor house rules and manners. She does well in her kennel when left home alone. She loves to play with other dogs and can be a little possessive of toys at times but as all young dogs do, she is being taught to share. Cuddling with her people after a good play is her favorite. She would do best with older children, as little ones she may accidentally knock over. She'll add nothing but fun and love to your home. If you are interested in meeting Espresso, please fill out an application via our website at https://therescueproject.net/adoption-application and we will get back to you via email once your application has been reviewed.

Story
Mia is a loveable 1-2 year old pitty mix who is full of affection. She was rescued by one of our foster parents in the terribly cold, alone with her 2 puppies. Mia loves to give kisses and snuggle. She is a young mama who she loves to run and wrestle. She’s food and praise motivated and has been learning a few commands. This sweet girl is so eager to please and will bond quickly to someone who offers a kind word and a cuddle. Her two favorite things are the yard and couch time. She is great with her puppies and other dogs. Her foster sisters and her will wrestle and chase each other for as long as they are allowed. She's so grateful to be safe and will be a wonderful family dog or companion for someone. No cats for Mia. If there are children in the home, she would do best with older, non-toddler aged children. She can jump a short fence so she does require a 5-6 foot fence If you are interested in meeting Mia, please fill out an application via our website at https://therescueproject.net/adoption-application and we will get back to you via email once your application has been reviewed. If you have further questions please feel free to reach out to us at adoptionstrp@gmail.com.
