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.

Story
Toodles is a bright, happy, and friendly boy. He is energetic and enjoys people time, as well as romping in the yard and going for walks. He is very appreciative of all the attention and love he receives. Toodles is very good one on one with people, but can be overwhelmed and defensive if too many people come to him at once. Also, he gets along with most dogs, but occasionally he does not.             Toodles is a gorgeous Maltese, about 4 1/2-5 years old, and 15-16 pounds. Because of his bit of a quarky side, he needs people who can show him patience, compassion, and understanding. He would be best as the only dog in his new home or with one other nice dog we would have to try him with.  It would also be best for him to have just one new parent, but not mandatory. Toodles has had a rough life so far, but certainly deserves a chance at a new, loving, forever family. If you believe you can give him that chance, please put in an application today. Please watch the video at the end of the photos to see Toodles enjoying his people time and showing off his zest for life.March 10, 2025, 4:07 pm

Hi, my name is Alfredo. I am a playful pup. I love playing with toys and chasing tennis balls. I enjoy going for walks and rolling in the grass too. I'm a great size, not too big and not too small. I take a little time to bond with new people but once we're friends, I'll give you unconditional love. Adopt me!
