Story
Miracle, Mister Miracle, Mister Mac, Mac, Mac Attack, Mac-a-dilly Circus, Macaroni, Good-Lookin'...The puppy of a million names continues to live up to his TMAR name of Miracle. This pup is full of love, joy and the zest for life. He loves to play with the resident dogs and would love nothing more than to be best friends with the resident cats. Miracle is about 7 months old. He is up to date on his vaccines and has been neutered and microchipped. He sleeps all night in his kennel and continues to work on his potty training. Miracle requires a special home, family and environment. He does not have full use of his rear legs, though is progressing daily. His right leg is stronger than his left and he needs a grassy area that allows him to scoot freely, to stretch his legs or to run around in his wheelchair. We have discovered Miracle suffers from separation anxiety. As with his mobility, we are making changes to help him, slow and steady. Miracle currently would not do well being kenneled all day while his humans are working. Miracle is so excited to find his forever home where he can continue to shine and spread joy. He is a happy dog and enjoys his wheelchair for daily walks. He wants to snuggle and give nose boops when he is not busy having the zoomies, playing tug or taking a nap.

Story
Roscoe is an approximately 13-week-old male, believed to be a Shepherd mix. His foster says he has been an absolute delight to have in the home. He gets along great with the dog resident and loves to snuggle up next to him for a nap. One of the smartest puppies they've ever met! Although very smart he is not in the least bit mischievous. He is eager to please and caught on quickly to potty training, walking on a leash, and even allowed his teeth to be brushed. He's not afraid of water and happily hops into the kiddie pool. His fosters' favorite thing about him is that he will let them hold him like a baby and he sometimes falls asleep that way. He has a very sweet and mellow demeanor and will make an incredible companion.

Story
Gemma is an approximately 13-week-old female, believed to be a Shepherd mix. She is quickly settling into her foster home, learning her name, working on kennel and potty training and doing great! She hasn't had any accidents in her kennel, and she is learning the “go potty” command. She is smart! Her favorite things are cuddles, mirrors (her reflection is adorable, so we get it!), zoomies and exploring! Fun fact: Gemma does happy spins and jumps when she sees her food bowl. She is getting braver and more adventurous by the minute! She even did well with a thunderstorm on her first night. She loves the resident dog (4-year-old retriever) and follows him everywhere. He just taught her how to play tug of war which she enjoys, even though she is nowhere near strong enough for him. She is so sweet and loves to fall asleep in your arms! Anyone who adopts her will be so incredibly lucky - she is quite literally a gem! 💕
