Story
Hercules is a 10lbs spunky and tender dog. He loves to play, excels at fetch and would do well to be working some kind of job (even if it’s following someone around the house, or doing yard work with his owner). He is very smart and understands a tremendous amount of words and signals, but struggles to listen when he gets scared. He is very expressive and will be your best friend. He is fiercely loyal and so much fun, but he is strong-willed and has a temper and can bite. He is brave but also a scared-y cat, and needs a parent who will make him feel safe. He is an alpha male with other dogs but will follow the human pack leader. He would do well to be in a family where someone can be with him for most of the day and be active with him. He doesn’t have any health issues and we just had his teeth cleaned in November. I developed health issues which makes it hard for me to take care of Hercules. He deserves to live his best life with his perfect family.

Story
Peppermint Patty is one year old and weighs 11 pounds. She is a sweet and friendly girl who is ready to be your new best friend. She walks well on leash and loves every bit of attention she can get from her humans. A true cuddle bug at heart, she thrives on affection and enjoys spending quality time snuggled up with her favorite people. While Peppermint Patty does get along with other dogs, she prefers companions with a calmer energy that matches her own laid-back personality. She would do best in a quiet, peaceful home where someone is around to give her the love and attention she deserves. If you’re looking for a loving, affectionate companion who adores snuggles and gentle walks, Peppermint Patty could be the perfect addition to your family. ------ Before being rescued, many of our dogs had limited socialization, so they may need some time to adjust to life as a family pet. Older kids are often a great fit for our dogs, and homes with younger children will be considered based on each dog’s individual needs. Skills like house training and leash walking may take a little extra patience and practice. However, with understanding and a gentle hand, most of these dogs adapt quite quickly. Being a part of their rehabilitation is a truly rewarding experience. To learn more about mill dogs and start the adoption process, visit our website!
