Story
Perigrove puppies in nj, I love this pup with my whole heart but he definitely needs more exposure to the world. Extremely anxious around strangers and outdoors, was raised in a not safe area where no walking was possible. Amazing with people kids and other animals indoors. He’s a great puppy, so lovable and deserves someone who is able to train him or help ease his anxiety.

Story
Noel is a sweet, super playful 2-year-old girl who loves walks, playing with other dogs, and bananas (her favorite 🍌). She has a fun, happy personality and really shines when she’s active or spending time outdoors. She’d do best in a home with other small dogs to play with and learn from. Noel is very loving and people-focused—she bonds closely with her person and loves being nearby. Noel is still building confidence with alone time and will need a patient adopter who’s committed to giving her structure, routine, and continued training. She can get overwhelmed when left alone right now, but she’s already making progress and will keep improving with consistency. Noel is potty trained on a regular schedule and does best with frequent opportunities to go outside. With the right home and guidance, Noel is going to be an incredibly loyal companion who brings so much love and energy into her forever home. 💛 Kennel License 18972 https://www.familiarhearts.org/adoptable-pets

Story
Patrick’s an 8yo 9lb Maltipoo. He’s dog and kid 7+ friendly. He’s housebroken when kept on a schedule but will wear a belly band in the house. He loves toys and acts like a puppy. He loves being with his people, getting tons of attention and love. He's so loving and wants to be held, sit on your lap or cuddled next to you at all times. He will bark to be picked up. He loves to be put in a dog sling carrier and go on errands with you. Target is his favorite store. Patrick’s foster requires a home, where someone is home often, so not to be left for long periods of time or can be taken with them, be picked up to be allowed on furniture to get attention, cuddles and love along with assistance with stairs, and using ramps for getting on/off furniture. If your home DOES NOT meet these requirement’s please DO NOT put an application in. We will not call anyone whose home does not meet the needed requirements. Also, we will be concentrating on local to foster applications 1st since home checks and meets with all humans and animals in home is needed at meet. Our fosters are all volunteers so aren’t always able to travel too far. Patrick as all dogs should have at least 2 weeks in their new home to decompress with just their people who live in the home and to not have people over for at least 2 weeks. Dogs need time to settle in and adjust to their new people and environment first so they can learn to trust them first. Patrick came to Tiny Paws in March 2025 with Grade 5 Intervertebral Disc Disease. This caused complete paralysis with no deep pain sensation in his back legs. After months of daily red-light therapy along with muscle supplements and water therapy, Patrick is not only walking, he’s running! He will need some assistance with stairs, and ramps for getting on/off furniture. We along with his vet are just AMAZED at his progress over the past 11 months! He’s neutered, vaccinated, HW negative and microchipped. Currently in Mt Laurel, NJ. If your home meets the needed requirements and you’re interested in applying to adopt please do so at www.tprescue.org

Story
Lady’s a 7yo 10lb Maltese mix. She’s dog selective, cat and kid 13+ friendly. She’s housebroken if kept on a schedule but will wear a diaper and use pee pads and crate trained. She’s good in a secure fenced in yard and/or going for harness leashed walks. She’s agile, smart, likes squeaky toys, people and going for walks but will bark at people, dogs and noises. She is easy startled so best to sleep in a dog bed on the floor so not to accidentally wake her while sleeping. Lady’s foster requires a calm home, where someone is home often, so not to be left for long periods of time, be an only dog, brushed/groomed often to prevent matting along with leadership, consistency, structure and to continue working on training. If your home DOES NOT meet these requirement’s please DO NOT put an application in. We will not call anyone whose home does not meet the needed requirements.

Story
Meet Groot He is a 1 yr Cutie Patootie Toss a toy and he's ready for a game of catch anytime -- it's one of his favorite things to do! He's very playful, and always looking for fun, but he also has that sweet Havanese affection that makes him want to be close to his people. He would need another dog in the family that can keep up with his playful spirit and give him plenty of attention and activity. One important warning: do NOT eat popcorn around him unless you plan on sharing! 🍿😂 This sneaky little popcorn thief can hear a bag open from across the house and will absolutely try to steal a bite whenever he gets the chance. http://tinyurl.com/ammradoptapp If any questions contact Shelly ammrshelly@gmail.com Online Application: https://www.trackabeast.com/tabbe/form/790/7000790146940/dog/adoption_allmuttsmatter.html Check us out on FB https://m.facebook.com/groups/927573409001459/?ref=share Or our Instagram https://www.instagram.com/all_mutts_matter_rescue?igsh=MWVycnBzMjFkOG5lNQ== Adoption donation of $425 includes age-appropriate vaccinations and spay/neuter when pup is approximately 5-7 months of age.

Story
Sweet little Selena, a 6-year- old, 12 lbs Maltese, is looking for a family to call her own. She gets along with all the dogs in her foster home. Her greatest wish, though, is to be a companion dog. Not that she needs to be cuddled or carried around all day long, she just wants to be with her people wherever that may be. She is crate trained; house training is a work in progress. A fenced-in yard would be a plus as she’s not a fan of walking on a leash. Selena is spayed, current on vaccinations, and microchipped. No more having puppies and now her turn to get all the love. Now Selena is looking to be someone’s baby! Pa Kennel License 07735
