Story
This adorable old guy has had a rough life. Dumped on the street, blind and nearly deaf, he must have been terrified. We cleaned him up and are giving him lots of love to make up for the neglect he has endured. If you are looking for a companion to sit with, Simon would love that. A senior would be a perfect fit for Simon. All this sweet boy needs is a quiet home without too much activity. If you would like to meet Simon, please complete the adoption application on our website www.muttlycrew.org

Story
Attention! RIGBY Here! PLEASE READ THE ENTIRE BIO BEFORE INQUIRING ABOUT MY ADOPTION PLEASE :) I am a very cute, little, Maltese/Chihuahua (Malchi) boy, I was born February 7, 2019. I am timid but sweet once I get to know you, I am very shy. I live with other dogs at the rescue, so I am ok with dogs, again it takes me some time to trust. I have been with rescue a long time because I suffer from some type of doggie vertigo and get car sick really easy, I always have since I was a puppy, so its hard for most families who enjoy taking their pup traveling. Its better now than it was when I was little but I still am nervous in the car. I need a loving patient family to open their hearts and home to allow me time to get to know you... Could that be you?? I was rescued from Lancaster, our humans didn't want us babies and gave us away and kept my Mama (Chihuahua) and Daddy (Maltese). I had siblings but they gave them away to other people instead of the rescue... Here is some information on my Mix Breed https://dogappy.com/information-about-maltese-chihuahua-mix-malchi Yours with a happy tailwag! Rigby

Story
Meet Rousey, a 10-year-old, 12-pound poodle with a name as fierce as the famous MMA fighter but a heart as sweet as can be! Rousey was heartbreakingly surrendered by her owners when they moved, having been with them since she was a young pup. Now, this independent little lady is adjusting to the good life indoors after spending much of her time outside. She’s quickly learning to love cozy spots like the bed, couch, and chair. Rousey is fully potty trained and walks beautifully on a leash, making outings a breeze—especially since she loves to potty during her walks. She’s a great sleeper, snoozing all night in her bed on yours, and when you’re not home, she’s perfectly content in her kennel. Rousey isn’t much of a barker, but she’ll definitely let you know if someone’s at the door. With her sweet nature and love for cuddles, Rousey is ready to find her forever home. Could that be with you? If you are interested in adopting, please visit the I.C.A.R.E. Dog Rescue website and complete an adoption application: www.icaredogrescue.org/ready-to-adopt Adoption fee includes: spay/neuter • shots up to date • micro-chip • fecal and vet check Breeds and age are not guaranteed.

Story
Meet Fraggle! He is a sweet 5-year-old, 7-pound Maltese mix who is looking for his forever home. This neutered boy is gentle, dog-friendly, and had captured the hearts of the shelter staff before we had rescued him. After arriving with severe matting, he was completely shaved relieving him of his mats. Though he was a bit underweight he is starting to gain weight again. Fraggle has been dewormed and is starting to fill out again with regular meals. He loves snuggling. If you’re ready to give this shy, loving boy a cozy home, apply today!  If you are interested in adopting, please visit the I.C.A.R.E. Dog Rescue website and complete an adoption application: www.icaredogrescue.org/ready-to-adopt Adoption fee includes: spay/neuter • shots up to date • micro-chip • fecal and vet check Breeds and age are not guaranteed.

Story
Hello... my name is Charger! I'm a two-year-old Maltese mix who weighs 14 pounds. I was found as a stray and the wonderful volunteers from I.C.A.R.E. Dog Rescue saved me from the shelter, took me to the vet, to the spa to get rid of my matted fur and then delivered me to my loving foster home. I am living with my foster family of 6, Mom, Dad and 4 teenagers and 4 fur siblings. I love to play fetch with the tennis ball but my most favorite thing is to snuggle with my humans. Whatever lap is available, I am sure to be on it! My foster family says that whoever adopts me is going to be very lucky so get your application in quick!

Dog Rescue website and complete an adoption application: www.icaredogrescue.org/ready-to-adopt Adoption fee includes: spay/neuter • shots up to date • micro-chip • fecal and vet check Breeds and age are not guaranteed.
