Story
Violeta is a sweet, petite 1 1/2 year old, 6 lb female Maltese/Terrier mix. Violeta is doing great on her house training, working on her leash training (she prefers to be in your arms!), and sleeps in bed with her foster parents. She is good with dogs big and small, cats, adults and respectful children. Violeta can be a little bit shy at first, but quickly gives kisses and wants very much to be part of a family. She came from a bad situation and would like to put that behind her. Violeta does have a genetic heart condition and was recently seen by a cardiologist and had an echocardiogram done. She does not need medicine at this point, she's healthy, playful and affectionate and she had a dental cleaning recently too! Her adoption fee is $250 and includes her spay, microchip and current vaccinations. To fill out an adoption application, visit https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/SSP-A-1021 To follow Violeta on her journey to a loving family on SPOT's Facebook page, visit https://facebook.com/spotsavespets/ and on Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/spotsavespets/

Story
A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away... Luke and Leia were up for adoption. 🐾 But luckily the time is now and the location is here! Luke & Leia are 2 year old bonded siblings looking for their forever home. These 2 Maltipoos are as fun as they are adorable. Weighing only 8 pounds each, they are vaccinated, micro chipped, neutered and spayed, crate trained and housebroken. If you think dogs with underbites are cute, you will absolutely melt when you see the overbites on these 2. They are the most unique twosome you'll come across. All they want to do is cuddle and give you kisses. Being that they are bonded, they will need to be adopted together. Please contact me with any questions. This is a courtesy post for K9 Connection Pet Rehoming And Adoption Inc. They are a 501c3 rescue so an adoption fee will apply. Please go to their website to fill out the application. You'll need to use a laptop or computer as the application does not pull up correctly on a smart phone or iPad. www.k9connectionpetadoption.org

Story
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.Bowie, is a 1 yr old sweet Maltese/Poodle Mix puppy. At one point in his life he thought that he had a wonderful family, but when his owners decided to move from their home town in Mexicali Mexico, they also decided to dump him in a Mexico shelter to be killed. Thankfully, a good samaritan took him in and asked for help, but for months no one stepped up to help Bowie. Until a friend of mine reached out to me to see if I could help this precious puppy. Of course I said YES, poor baby deserves a chance at a great life. I named him Bowie. Bowie, is now fully vetted, vaccinated, neutered and microchipped. He's so ready for a loving family and maybe even another friendly dog to bond and play with. This sweet tiny boy deserves the best!! He loves people, older considerate kids and other dogs his size. Bowie, is very smart, treat motivated so training will be a snap. If you live in San Diego County or surrounding areas, have a home with a yard with a fully secured fence and would love to adopt Bowie, then please complete our adoption application at tlck9rescue.orgVisit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.July 23, 2024, 3:44 pm
