Story
Meet Lentil! Lentil is approximately 3 years old and is thought to be a Chihuahua Mix.*Lentil is in Foster Care to help him prepare for a forever home.Lentil is a recent intake from a terrible hoarding situation in a neighboring county. Unfortunately, Lentil lived with 40+ other dogs in a small space that was incredibly filthy & unhealthy. That being said, the fact that these dogs were neglected of social skills, loving human touch, and everything in the outside world is even worse. Lentil's adopters will need to understand the commitment of adopting a "Hoarding Case Dog" as they are often unsocialized to the outside world and require extra patience and love.Lentil is used to living with other dogs, so we're hoping to find him a home with another friendly dog whose lead he can follow. We are taking things one step at a time, but his family should understand that he is not yet used to walking on leash and may require extra time to learn that as well.Lentil is a very sensitive baby who has been through a lot. He likes the safety of his kennel, and will retreat in there with his stuffy toy if he needs a break from the noise. He also enjoys his dog bed in his outdoor dog run (he's been using his doggy door to go in and out).We think Lentil would do fine with cats, but we are not recommending him with small children at this time. Because smaller kids/toddlers are often involved with louder noises, quicker movements, and because they're unable to read behavioral cues and respect boundaries, Lentil would likely prefer a home with older kids or adults. This will obviously also be based on the adopter's experience with dogs like Lentil.We know that Lentil's emotional recovery may be a long road. He's been through so much trauma and change in a short amount of time...but we also know that his future can be filled with love and happiness and playfulness and wagging tails if he finds someone who doesn't mind helping him get there.We are doing all meet n' greets BY APPOINTMENT ONLY after an adoption application has been approved:https://monroecountydogshelter.com/apply-adopt.htmlLentil is neutered, microchipped & fully vaccinated. His adoption fee is $240.

Story
Meet Scooby Girl! Scooby Girl is approximately 2 years old and is a Chihuahua-type mix. Scooby Girl was removed from a large-scale neglect/hoarding case, and will need someone very special to help her navigate life as a "pet".Scooby Girl, like many dogs in situations like this, is unfamiliar with most things that our other dogs might view as normal. Things like leashes, doorways, certain household noises, or even being held and touched. It's heartbreaking that things other dogs just view as 'everyday life', these dogs are completely unaware of and need lots of time to adjust.Scooby Girl's family should expect to be incredibly patient, and understand that she will likely need to come around on her own time. Because of the condition these dogs lived in, they were not potty trained/house broken. Giving them extremely safe containment outside is important, because they'll be easily spooked and hard to catch if they get away.Scooby Girl will likely do best in a home with other pets since she was used to living with many other dogs. Having a happy, friendly, outgoing doggo whose lead she can follow would probably be helpful!What we can say for certain is that, true to being a Chihuahua, once these babies know they're safe and have bonded to a human, they are incredibly loyal and put all of their trust into you. We've already seen Scooby Girl connect with certain people, so we know she'll bond strongly with her new owner(s) and have the best chance at a happy, normal life as a pet. We want nothing more for her!If you think you could give a dog like Scooby Girl a second chance in life, follow the link below. We are doing all meet n' greets BY APPOINTMENT ONLY after an adoption application has been approved:https://monroecountydogshelter.com/apply-adopt.htmlScooby Girl is spayed and fully vaccinated. Her adoption fee is $240.
