Story
Meet TicoAt 10½ years old and just 8½ pounds, Tico is proof that the best things really do come in small packages.This sweet Maltese is happiest when he is close to his person. Whether its cuddling on the couch, following you around the house, or simply keeping you company, Ticos favorite place is wherever you are.Tico is diabetic and receives insulin twice a day after meals, but do not let that discourage you. He is happy, loving, potty trained, great with other dogs, and still has so much love left to give.Senior dogs have a special way of loving with their whole hearts, and Tico is no exception. He deserves a family who will see past his medical needs and give him the forever home he has been waiting for.We are a foster-based rescue in Palm City and adopt locally.Apply to adopt Tico at TheFarmDogRescue.comPlease share to help this sweet senior find the family he deserves.#TheFarmDogRescue #AdoptDontShop #SeniorDogLove #MalteseLove #Maltese #RescueDog #PalmCityFL #TreasureCoastDogs #FloridaDogRescue #RescueIsMyFavoriteBreed #AdoptASenior #ForeverHomeWanted #SmallDogBigHeart

Story
Lambeau is a lovable 9yr old pup. He gets along with other dogs and loves his daily snuggles. He would do best in a home with no small children. Someone with experience with pups that can become VERYterritorial over their humans. a first session by our trainer will be provided with adoption to insure a proper transition for Lambeau and his new family.

Story
**ALL ADOPTIONS INCLUDE A HOME VISIT. YOU MUST LIVE IN BROWARD & PALM BEACH COUNTIES** Azmira Maltese Mix · 1.5 Years Old · 12 lbs ·  Azmira is a year-and-a-half-old Maltese mix with twelve pounds of silky softness and a heart that, once she has decided she trusts you, opens up completely. She has just finished weaning her three puppies, a devoted mama from the very first day, and she is now moving through the natural hormonal transition that follows. This means she may be a little more sensitive or unsure in these early weeks, which makes patience and calm surroundings especially important right now. New people and new environments can feel overwhelming to her even under ordinary circumstances, and she will need time to settle in. But with the right person, one who understands that some of the most loving dogs need a slower, gentler introduction to the world, she will eventually roll right over for a belly rub, and that moment will be worth every bit of the wait. Azmira came to us without much socialization, so she is still learning that the world is a safe place. She is not a dog for a first-time owner or a busy household. She needs someone with genuine experience, real patience, and the time to help her grow at her own pace. A quiet, stable home environment will be especially beneficial as she finishes her hormonal transition and finds her footing. In return, she will become one of the most devoted companions you have ever had. A note on her coat: Azmira's silky coat, we think, is hypoallergenic and beautifully soft, a wonderful match for an adult home that loves a well-groomed companion. This dog's adoption fee is $550 to go towards their vetting (vaccines, spay/neuter, heartworm/Ehrlichia/Lyme test, fecal test, pre-op blood work, dental cleaning, and microchip as well as grooming if needed). If you are interested, please fill out the adoption application. For additional information regarding our adoption process, please check our FAQ's Page.   *All dogs in the care of Get a Life Pet Rescue live in loving foster homes while waiting for their perfect match. They don't live in cages or crates (unless there is a medical reason to do so). They are treated as family pets while in our care. * All dogs in our care are fed premium brand holistic food as well as supplements and vitamins specific to each dog's needs. We don't buy inexpensive bulk dry kibble; our rescues are fed premium wet food diets as part of a comprehensive rehabilitation program to ensure maximum health. * All of our rescues receive complete quality vetting, including full dental cleaning with pre-op bloodwork, spay/neuter, vaccines, and grooming. Dogs in need of specialized medicine will be seen by specialists, such as full cardiac workups and ophthalmologist visits, all suspicious lumps and bumps are biopsied, and every medical need is transparent to potential adopters. *Once you adopt from Get a Life Pet Rescue, you become part of our compassionate family, and we are here for you if a problem with your precious dog arises. ##2714572##
