Story
Minnow came into rescue on March 8 at just 4 weeks old and 2.7lbs. Now, he weighs 5.2 lbs and is estimated to weigh no more than 7lbs when he reaches adulthood. Because he came in so young, he has been mentored by an 120lb female Akita, a 100lb male Alaskan Malamute, German Shepherd, Samoyed and Husky mix, and, a 50lb female Blue Heeler. He is smart, playful and silly, potty trained and fearless while understanding boundaries set by the other dogs.  Minnow has had his first two sets of puppy vaccinations, been dewormed, and is microchipped. Due to his age and size, neuter will be deferred and he will only be placed under an ironclad Foster-to-Adopt Agreement.         April 21, 2024, 8:34 pm

Story
This adorable 2-year-old Mauzer (a Maltese and Schnauzer) was surrendered to us when his person became too ill to care for him and there were no family members who could take him in. He was terrified for the first few months he was here, but has made great strides. He will do best with an experienced adopter who can help him overcome some of his fears with lots of love, patience, and training. It will definitely take a few visits with him before he will be comfortable enough to go into his forever home. He is doing fine with other small dogs, is housebroken, and loves to go for long walks. He will not be placed in a home with children. Louie is currently living in a foster home in Santa Clarita, CA.
