**ALL ADOPTIONS INCLUDE A HOME VISIT. YOU MUST LIVE IN BROWARD OR PALM BEACH COUNTIES** The 3 Puppies Story Begins With Mama: Meet Azmira Every great litter has a great mama, and Azmira is exactly that. She came to us as a rescued one-and-a-half-year-old Maltese Yorkie mix, arriving alongside her siblings, all of whom share the same beautiful hypoallergenic lineage with traits of Maltese, Yorkie, and Shih Tzu. Her siblings range from 10 to 18 pounds fully grown, which gives you a wonderful window into what these puppies may become. Azmira is gentle, loving, and devoted. She has poured everything she has into her puppies, and soon it will be her turn to find her own forever home. But first, her babies need theirs. About This Litter: At just five weeks old, Star Anise, Ziva, and Sprout are already showing the world exactly who they are. They are using the pee pad, discovering wet food alongside mama's milk, and navigating each new day with the wide-eyed wonder that only a puppy can pull off. They are healthy, thriving, and ready to begin the process of finding the people who will love them for a lifetime. These are not puppies for someone dipping a toe in. They are for the experienced dog lover, someone who understands that a young puppy is an investment of time, patience, consistency, and joy. Someone who has done this before and knows that every moment spent in those early months pays dividends for years to come. If that is you, read on. With their hypoallergenic heritage across Maltese, Yorkie, and Shih Tzu lines, these puppies are likely to be low to non-shedding companions with soft, beautiful coats that will only become more stunning with care and grooming. Each one carries a distinct personality already beginning to show.  What Adoption Requires Our Promise to These Puppies We are committed to making sure every puppy in this litter grows up healthy, protected, and loved. That means we partner with our adopters through the first months of life, and we ask for a genuine commitment in return. Here is what the journey looks like. MAY: Last Week of May 2026. First vaccines administered. Puppies become available for adoption. JUNE: Week of June 14th, 2026. Second round of vaccines at our vet in Broward County. Adopter brings puppy in. JULY: Week of July 12th, 2026. Third round of vaccines at our vet in Broward County. Adopter brings puppy in. SEP: September or October 2026. Spay or neuter at our vet in Broward County at 6 months of age. Required as part of the adoption agreement. Location requirement: Adopters must reside in Palm Beach or Broward County to ensure they are able to bring their puppy to our vet in Broward County for scheduled vaccine appointments and the spay or neuter procedure. This is a firm part of our adoption commitment and helps us ensure every puppy receives complete, consistent care. Ziva: Female 2.1 oz. The tiniest of the three, Ziva, has a short coat with wispy, delicate fur that gives her an almost ethereal look. Do not let her size fool you. She is attentive, curious, and already watching everything with steady, bright eyes. Ziva is for the person who falls for the underdog, who sees a petite soul and recognizes that the biggest hearts often come in the smallest packages. She will grow into exactly the companion you did not know you were waiting for. This dog's adoption fee is $800 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, including 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. ##2726975##

She has a medium-length wavy coat that already hints at the silky beauty she will grow into, and a confidence about her that feels quietly remarkable in a puppy this small. She is the kind of girl who will learn your routines quickly and hold you gently but firmly to hers. Named for the star-shaped spice that is both rare and aromatic, she is exactly that, a little something special that lingers.

Story
**ALL ADOPTIONS INCLUDE A HOME VISIT. YOU MUST LIVE IN BROWARD & PALM BEACH COUNTIES** Azmira Maltese Mix · 1.5 Years Old · 11 lbs · She / Her Azmira is a year-and-a-half-old Maltese mix with eleven pounds of silky, hypoallergenic 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 simply 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 is hypoallergenic and beautifully soft, a wonderful match for a family 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.

This is a firm part of our adoption commitment and helps us ensure every puppy receives complete, consistent care. Sprout, Male, 3 oz: Sprout is the big brother of the litter at a whopping three ounces, and he carries it with a certain swagger. His wavy, curly coat is the kind that grows into something truly gorgeous with regular grooming, and his size suggests he may be the most robust of the three at maturity. Sprout is for someone who loves a dog with personality to spare, a little guy who will be enthusiastic about everything, mornings, walks, snack time, and especially you. This dog's adoption fee is $800 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).

Story
**ALL ADOPTIONS INCLUDE A HOME VISIT. YOU MUST LIVE IN BROWARD & PALM BEACH COUNTIES** Meet Dapper Dash, a distinguished 5-7 yearold, 16-pound Bichon with charm to spare. Dash is a devoted little companion who thrives in a calm, adult home with people who understand dogs and can keep him safe, especially since he’s quick to slip out an open door if given the chance. He’s in excellent health for his age, complete with a bright spirit and impressively good teeth. Dash loves being near his people, enjoys short outings, and doesn’t need long walks to stay happy. A change of scenery and a bit of adventure keep him cheerful. Dash has lived a pampered life and is ready for an adopter who will continue that care and structure. If you’re an experienced dog person looking for a loyal, affectionate sidekick, Dash may be your perfect match. This dog's adoption fee is $400 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. ##2693463##
