Story
🖤 Meet Milo 8–10 weeks old | Shih Tzu / Maltese mix (best guess) Milo is a little bundle of joy with a playful spirit and a heart full of love. He was found with his sister Mila running down a busy street in Palmdale, CA, looking scared and unsure of where to go. A Good Samaritan stopped, scooped them up, and made sure they were safe. With no microchips and no one coming forward, Milo is now ready to find his forever family. Milo is silly, cuddly, and so much fun. He loves to play, makes everyone laugh, and then happily settles in for snuggles when playtime is over. He is great with other dogs, children, and cats, and is up to date on vaccinations. Our rescue will cover the cost of his neuter surgery when he is 6 months of age or older. 📧 Interested in adopting Milo (or Milo and Mila together)? Please email info@concernedcitizensanimalrescue.org and we’ll gladly send you an adoption application. We will cover his neuter surgery at Simi Valley Spay Neuter clinic when he is six months or older.

Story
Jenga is a wonderful boy who was rescued from a high impound shelter in Kern County. He was a matted mess. He was never groomed and it was discovered that this poor boy had so many twigs and foxtails embedded in fur that caused great pain and discomfort. He must be feeling so much better now. This hasn't dampened his spirits at all. He is so loving, sweet and even. Jenga is great with other dogs and people. He's always looking for a way to get his play on. He walks well on a leash. He is under 2 years and weighs 12 pounds All dogs in our program are up to date on all their shots, spayed or neutered, and micro chipped. Our dogs are in foster homes which enables us to learn more about them in a home environment. We do not place dogs on a first come first serve basis, but rather to the home best suited for them. An application, adoption fee and contract are required. Please direct all questions to adopt@crdogrescue.com. All our dogs can be met with an approved application. Thank you for looking at a rescue dog for your next family member.

Story
Please fill out an application to start the process to meet NORAH! Meet and greets will be held in RIVERSIDE, CA https://pawsitivetailstoremember.forms-db.com/view.php?id=17980 Norah is 2 years old, she weighs 11 lbs and the best we can tell, she is a Maltese/Papillon/Chinese Crested mix with a beautiful pure white long-haired coat which will require regular grooming. Norah loves everyone, people, children, dogs and cats and she’s just perfect. Norah is full of playful energy and will fit into any type of a home. The backstory on Norah is that she ended up in the Devore Shelter in San Bernardino County and the shelter listed her as “rescue only” because she was pregnant. In their words, heavily pregnant. We rescued Norah and when we picked her up, she was fully engorged with milk. She was filthy and matted, and her foster had to bathe her and cut away all of her mats in her fur to prepare for her to give birth. When bathing her, Lucille was feeling her belly for puppies and to her shock and surprise, she could feel nothing. We quickly made a vet appointment where she had an ultrasound which confirmed that there were no puppies in her belly. SHE WAS NO LONGER PREGNANT. What we do know is that she was pregnant and she was full of milk, but she came into the shelter with no puppies and per the shelter, she did not give birth while in their care, so we can only assume that she gave birth right before entering the shelter. We have no knowledge of where or what happened to them. It was incredibly sad for all of us and especially for Norah. Norah is house and crate trained and she comes when called, so absolutely no name changes! Norah is playful and inquisitive, loves to be around her people and she is cat and dog friendly with the other animals in the home and she loves treats! Please note that while she is crate trained, we don’t want her living in a crate in her forever home! We do require at least one other YOUNG small dog in the home as a companion for Norah! No exceptions. Norah is microchipped, current on vaccines, spayed and she would love nothing more than a forever family to call her own.

Story
Comet is an approximately six-year-old Maltese. A friendly dog, he is a mixture of spunky, loving, and sassy with a medium energy level. Comet gets along with all dogs, male, female, large, medium and small. He would love to have a buddy or two in his home to play with and show him the way. Weighing in at nine pounds, he is currently being fostered with two big dogs and gets along with both. Comet has mastered potty training with no accidents in the last month. He loves going for walks and is excellent on leash. He enjoys going on adventures to new places and taking car rides, too. Comet likes hanging out with his people and is a good boy with visitors coming to the house. Comet does not annoyingly bark, but he does have a little little growl he sometimes uses to tell you he wants to be pet and sometimes to tell you he doesn't want to be bothered. It should not be mistaken as something bad, rather just him being sassy. At night he sleeps quietly in his dog bed. (Sometimes he wants to come up on his foster mom's bed to sleep and she does allow it.) Unfortunately, the people who had Comet before he entered the shelter did not take very good care of him and he had severe periodontal disease. The rescue had to remove all of his teeth as a result. He eats wet food and can eat small, soft treats. Comet loves to sunbathe on warm days and romp around in the yard with his doggie friends. Toys are not a huge interest, but he will occasionally play with them. It's very cute when he gets the zoomies and runs through the house with excitement. Comet is a great little dog who really wants to please and be part of a family. Could that family be yours?
