Story
Tiny is a 11 year old, 5 lb. female Maltese. She was surrendered with her Shih Tzu brother Domino. Would like to adopt them together as they are bonded. Her prior owners husband had a stroke plus she was pregnant and felt it would be best to rehome them since she didnt have time for them. Shes such a cutie patootie. She sleeps above my head on a pillow and does not move the whole night. She is just happy to finally be loved.Her little personality is coming out to and she loves to bark and even play now as well. Her and her brother Domino both enjoy going on walks and our 2x per week trip to the dog park! Shes housebroken too. $250 Adoption fee includes vaccines, spay, dental, bloodwork, heartworm test, deworming, and microchip. For more info email info@savinggracefl.org. If you are interested in adopting please submit an adoption application on our website www.savinggracefl.org. Please visit our website SavingGraceFl.org to learn more about this amazing pet and to see other available dogs and cats.

Story
Teddy is a gentle, loving senior dog who has been with our family since we adopted him as a puppy in 2013. He has a calm nature, enjoys relaxing, and bonds deeply with his people. He may bark at strangers at first, but settles once he feels safe. He would do best in a quiet home where he can have a consistent, low-stress environment. He’s not high-energy and is happiest just being near you. Teddy does have some age-related medical needs, including chronic ear infections, occasional limping from a neck issue, and cataracts (he can still see, just with some limitation). These are manageable, but important to be aware of. He is potty trained, though he may occasionally mark indoors since he is not neutered. We love him deeply, and this has been a very difficult decision, but with two young children, we can no longer give him the time and care he deserves. He is not a problem dog—just a sweet senior who needs the right, patient home to feel safe and loved in his later years.
