Story
My previous owner must have fed me all the time so I ate all the time and now I need to get my svelte figure back with your help. I enjoy walking around at rescue, so I’m not a couch potato. I was in awful condition when I was rescued. My ears had handful of fur in them and I was pretty matted all over. I get along with everyone at rescue. I stay clear of the rowdy ones, but if they want to sit with me I’m good with that. I’m a good girl. I want a family that will keep me safe and I’ll reward you with lots and lots of love.

Story
Bernadette Peters is a 5-year-old, 9 lb Maltese mix with a gentle soul who is slowly learning to feel safe and loved. She can be shy at first and is still coming out of her shell, but with patience and kindness, her sweet personality truly begins to shine. Bernadette absolutely loves the company of other dogs and would thrive in a home with a confident canine companion to help her feel secure. She enjoys running around the yard, exploring, and playing with her dog friends. While she’s still unsure about toys, she does love her food and gets excited when her people are home. She also enjoys gentle affection, happily soaking up pets and giving sweet kisses in return. Because she previously lived outdoors, Bernadette is still learning house manners and will need a patient adopter committed to continuing her training. She is crate trained and will go into her crate for mealtime. She is also working on leash skills, but at this time she is not comfortable walking on a leash, so a securely fenced yard is REQUIRED. Bernadette does best in a calm, quiet environment. An adult-only home or one with older, gentle individuals would be ideal, as young children may be overwhelming for her. She is good with dogs of all sizes and also does well with cats. With time, love, and understanding, Bernadette will blossom into a devoted and affectionate companion. She’s ready to find a patient home where she can continue building confidence and finally feel safe forever. To adopt her, please apply on www.orphanannierescue.org Her adoption fee is $450, which includes her shots up-to-date, microchipping, spay, heartworm testing, and dental cleaning.

Story
    HI Everyone!   My name is Kamryn. I am 8 years old and weigh just under 9 pounds. No one knows what breed I am, but I must have some Maltese in me. I bet I am a mix of several types of white dogs!     I am a very sweet and loving girl. My favorite thing may be meeting new people. Love them all! I am living with 4 other small dogs and that has been going well. I mostly ignore them.   Foster Mom says I should tell you that I am potty trained like any proper lady. I also do well sleeping in my crate. I get a little upset when I have to go in the crate when I am left alone, but I get over it quickly. She says I am a velcro dog because I have to check on her to make sure all is OK.   I look forward to finding a forever home and promise to be the best girl ever!   Hope to meet you soon! Kamryn An Adoption Application for this dog can be found and submitted online. http://www.angelsrescue.org/adopt/adoption-forms  Please be sure to like our Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/angelsrescue.  Email inquiry@angelsrescue.org  Note: Some apartments and neighborhoods have breed restrictions. We verify rental policies and adhere to any regulations. Please ensure you understand those restrictions before choosing a dog.          June 26, 2026, 9:15 pm

Story
Dastan isn’t just a dog—he’s a loyal, big-hearted companion waiting to be someone’s whole world. This loving boy thrives on attention and affection, and he’s happiest when he can soak up every bit of love you have to give. Dastan would do best as the only pet in the home, where he can truly shine and build a deep, one-on-one bond with his person. If you’re looking for a devoted best friend who will greet you with excitement, stay by your side, and fill your days with warmth, Dastan is ready to give you his whole heart.*Please be aware that he follows a strict low-fat diet, and his treats must be made with limited, simple ingredients.He will also need dental care and vaccinations completed immediately, looking for someone prepared to take that on right away.I am hoping to find a home that understands his needs and is ready to provide the care and attention he deserves. Please only apply if you are confident you can meet these requirements.
