Story
Tot was rescued by Mutts of the Midway in late January. She is still a puppy at 6 months old and is currently 20 lbs (she will be a medium-sized dog when fully grown). Tot is a smart girl who thoroughly enjoys learning tricks and has been great at behavior training. She has gotten an A+ at house training and doesn't need potty breaks at night. She's a huge fan of being a couch potato and people-watching through the windows without needing to bark at those walking by. Food and treats are her weaknesses and is food/treat motivated. Quick stats! --Dogs: has not been introduced to dogs in the home --Cats: has not been introduced to cats --Children: has not been introduced to children in the home --Likes: people watching on the couch, food/treats, and learning new tricks If Tot sounds like the right fit for your home, fill out an adoption application today! muttsofthemidway.org/adopt

Hi, my name is Bella. I am a sweet, spunky, girl who is looking for love! I am approximately 2 years old. I was rescued after living on a short chain outside in the freezing cold temperatures. I am living my best life now in a temporary foster home. I love other dogs and I love to play. I am super sweet and affectionate. I love human interaction and I don’t know a stranger. I am up to date on vaccines and will be spayed very soon. I am currently in Beckley, WV but can be transported by volunteers to my perfect match!

Hi, I'm Neal. I'm a survivor. I was found in TN with a deep cut on my neck that the shelter vet believes came from being hung. Despite all I've been through, I'm a super happy boy! I'm friendly with other dogs and people of all ages. I am neutered, microchipped and up to date on vaccines. I would love to find a family that could show him what love is. Will it be you? I am still in TN, but can be transported to an approved foster or adopter. I can't wait to meet you!

Story
✅next Chicago transport is mid April! DOBBIE!!! The best way to understand this quirky little guy is to Google search Dobbie from Harry Potter. My son named him and it's THE PERFECT FIT for him and he knows his name! He's wildly entertaining, flits through the house like a hummingbird. His only bad habit is that he's a counter surfer but he's so cute when he does it that he rarely gets in trouble and he's never actually gotten anything. I think he's just curious what's up there. To live this guy you have to know his backstory . We pulled his sister from a rural shelter and she was very well socialized and got adopted within two weeks. The Director of the Shelter reached out and said you know we have his brother? I said no. In comes Dobbie and he is nothing like his sister. Human touch was like nails on a chalkboard for him, he had no idea what a leash was, and he was petrified of all humans. Fast forward four months. He is a perfect gentleman on leash, he loves attending doggy daycare, he is perfectly house trained, he doesn't love the kennel, but he will sleep in his little dog bed right next to his people. and he SEEKS OUT human affection! It has been the most beautiful and rewarding transformation, and he is little nub tail never stops wagging. He becomes very attached to his humans these days. He loves other dogs, and he loves to run and play in the yard. If you couldn't tell by now, he is my Foster and he's with me in Memphis, Tennessee. Once adopted, he will travel on rescue vet transport to his new forever family. They travel each weekend to the northeast, leaving Memphis, Tennessee Friday mornings around 6 AM and making delivery stops along the way all the way up to West Greenwich, Rhode Island. if you would like to make Dobbie a part of your family please follow the link below to our adoption application. Also, please note, he is listed as a small dog because he is right at 30 pounds, he's tall and very thin and petite in nature. Transport is an additional $185. PS that last photo was taken through a window, so although he looks dirty, he is jet black, and that was the best picture capturing his ears. https://forms.gle/APKvbgFJcaRvgKgk9

Absolutely beautiful. More than that , though , is her inner beauty. Maddie has a beautiful, gentle sweet disposition even as a puppy. She looks like she's always smiling. She is, Ofcourse, a puppy so there's not a lot to tell. Most importantly she's very well socialized. She's in a foster home ( mine actually ) in Memphis, Tn. She is approx 8-10 weeks old. Once an application has been submitted and approved, I would be happy to speak with you about Maddie, answer any questions, send videos, photos, etc. Once adopted, we use a transport company called Rescue vet transport to get our pets from Memphis Tennessee to the north east. They leave Memphis each, and every Friday morning around 6 AM. Once they start their travel, they start a group text with the two drivers and all the doctors who have a A Pet on board. They make stops along the way as far north as West Greenwich, Rhode Island. Transport is an additional $185. You will find our volunteer team to be very responsive so please , submit your application ready to Adopt.
