Meeko was an owner surrender to the shelter. His mom was unable to care for him after being with her for 8 years. She was absolutely devastated. The shelter said he was too awesome to stay in the shelter and that he should definitely go to a home or hope you love. He is a very easy going old man. He is about 10 lb fully vetted vaccinated to fix microchipped. He gets along with all dogs. He likes to follow you around and sleep most of the day. He loves to be held and would be a great companion for someone who has the time for him. He loves to go and walks and he loves going in the car.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Hi Everyone meet TLC K9 Rescue's newest rescue our sweetheart Aliya.  Unfortunately, poor girl lost her home after her original owner passed away.   As you can imagine her world was turned upside down for a while, she lost the only person she ever knew.  She was the princess of her home so that's exactly what we want now for Aliya. She can be a little shy when she first meets people, but with a gentle touch and love she comes around pretty quickly.   Aliya, was an only dog so even though she is ok with the other dogs in rescue she is neutral and will not fight with the other dogs, but we still think she should be an only dog so she can still be the princess of the house.  Aliya would make a great companion dog to anyone willing to shower her with love. She was pretty matted when we got her so we had to shave her down, but this beautiful 3 yr old Multipoo will look even more beautiful once her hair grows back in. Please share for Aliya's sake   We need a foster home in Sunny San Diego for Aliya. Please apply to foster Aliya at tlck9rescue.orgVisit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.April 21, 2024, 12:27 pm
