Story
Kona is 1 years old as of January 4th. I got him from a flea market. He enjoys running around and going for walks and playing with other people. He can be cuddly at times but he enjoys all the lovings from people. Hes a silly dog and loves to be all up in your business. He would love a home that would let him run around and help get his energy out and gives him all the loves that you could give him.

Story
All About Animals Rescue and Transport is a 501c3 registered nonprofit based in Conway, South Carolina. We rescue dogs from euthanasia lists and overcrowded shelters, as well as take in strays, surrenders, litters of puppies and nursing moms, and the cases that get so often overlooked. We are a foster based rescue, so all of our dogs are in foster homes in the Myrtle Beach area. When you apply for one of our dogs, if approved, you will be contacted by the foster for a meet and greet. We also hold adoption events to meet more of our pups at once! All adoptions begin with an application :https://linktr.ee/aaart1082 Adoption fees include age appropriate vaccines, microchip, deworming, and spay/neuter (scheduled if too young.). While we do adopt out of state, all of our dogs are in foster homes in the Myrtle Beach area. We require in person meet and greets and do not provide transport. Thank you for choosing to rescue!

Story
We’ve had Sassy since she was about 7 weeks - she’’s a little over 1 now however, we just don’t have the time to really give her the love she needs anymore so looking to rehome her. She’s great with kids! Very playful! She doesn’t bark a lot… loves outside and cuddles! She’s a mix breed. I was told she’s a chihuahua, Maltese and shihtzu but I think she has a little Jack Russell in her too. I’m not sure why she has the pink patches but we started adding salmon oil to her kibble a couple weeks ago… she comes with all accessories! Crate, food, toys, home grooming kit, etc! We just want her in a loving home!
