Story
Fluffy and her siblings were born on January 2, 2024. They were born to momma Tofu a Dachshund mix. Tofu came to us after receiving a plea for rescue to save her while pregnant in a high kill shelter. The puppies have been raised with our rescue and are happy, healthy, playful and social little puppies. We are not sure on the Dad/Dad's, but by their looks and size they look Maltese, Chihuahua?  These sweet pups are looking for their forever homes. Because of their small size no small children or large breed dogs please.  As always, we do highly recommend positive reinforcement training to insure a well behaved and well-rounded puppy/dog. The adoption fee is $750 which includes: spay/neuter, microchipping with registration, up to date on vaccines, rabies vaccine (for dogs and pups over 4 months at time of alter), deworming, and topical flea treatment application (as needed). If interested in one if our dogs or puppies, please email pardonmeinc@yahoo.com for information and adoption questionnaire. Our animals can be seen by appointment only after approved application process. Please email to make sure the animal you are interested in is still available and/or will be attending or on-site adoption event. No phone calls please.  If you are interested in adopting one of our animals, please send all inquiries to pardonmeinc@yahoo.com.  **********FOSTER HOMES NEEDED************ We are always looking for loving foster homes for new arrivals!

Story
Friendly and loving. Enjoys walks. Does not shed and is hypoallergenic. He became a part of our family 11 years ago. He has been with us in 4 different states and does well in cars and because he is a small breed he is easy to fly with. We used to live in a house but since moving to California we have been unable to give him the quality time he deserves. I cannot walk him like I used to and he is bored all day without a companion to play with him.

Story
I’ve had Dexter since 2018 I adopted him he got lost in riverside we waited months for someone to claim him and no one did. I didn’t grow up with a dog so I don’t have any training skills. I got married in 2022 and where I live now they don’t allow dogs. He is currently living with my mom but she is hardly home now due to babysitting my baby niece at my brothers house. I live so close to my mom that I take him for walks before work and after work but stays home alone most of the time. It hurts me to ever think to put him up for adoption but I feel like if im being selfish. He needs a bit of training but over all he is a loving dog. I am in no rush I just want to find the perfect place to him. His shots are up to date I get him groomed every 2-3 month.
