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
I spent a year in my home without my person. Someone came by once a day to feed me, but I was alone the rest of the day and night. My person was sick for a long time and didn’t make arrangements when he passed away. A good Samaritan reached out to Act2Pups and they agreed to take me in. I hadn’t been groomed in a year. Although I use potty pads they weren’t changed very much and I was a mess when I was finally rescued. As you can see I was a mop head and now I’m cleaned up. My skin needs some work and I’m getting a dental next week (week of November 10th). I’m a happy girl. I just love being cuddled. I’ll race around and stand on my back legs to be picked up. I’m fine with other small dogs and older children.

Story
    Hi, I’m Liberty - a feisty, adorable, 9-year-old, Maltese/Poodle mix weighing just 9 pounds. My foster mom says I’m fluffy (I think that’s her sweet way of teasing me). I’ve had a little anxiety in the past, so I sometimes bark when I feel unsure, but I’ve made wonderful progress. Once I know I’m safe, I truly shine. I just need a calm environment and a family who understands me. I’m spayed, fully house-trained, crate-trained, and up to date on all my vaccinations. I even had a dental cleaning! I know my basic commands and take pride in being a well-mannered little lady. My dream home would be quiet and peaceful, with no small children, no shared walls, and a fenced yard where I can enjoy fresh air and sunshine. I’m a sweet girl with a gentle heart, looking for a safe, warm, and loving place to rest my head. Could you be the family I’ve been waiting for?  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.

    Hi! I’m Lulu York! My Foster Mama says I look like a muppet, and honestly, I’ll take it. I’m a 9-year-old, Yorkie/Maltese mix, weighing in at 9 pounds of fluff, sass, and cuddle potential. I really love my food (don’t judge), but I’m working on slimming down a bit with my foster’s help. I’m a total sweetheart who loves affection, but my Yorkie side gives me a big personality and a confident little attitude that keeps life interesting.  Here’s the good stuff:  Crate & house trained  Up to date on all vaccines  Very loving once I trust you  Dental cleaning coming soon I’m looking for a quiet, calm home where I can be someone’s cuddle buddy. Small kids aren’t really my thing. I prefer a peaceful environment where I can relax, nap, and soak up all your love.

Story
    Meet Shaggy Rogers! This sweet 6-year-old Maltese mix is a total heart-stealer with his soft white coat, soulful eyes, and gentle spirit. Shaggy is everything you could want in a companion — fully potty trained, calm, snuggly, and perfectly content to spend his days lounging by your side or napping in a cozy spot. At about 16 pounds, he’s the ideal size for sofa cuddles and lap time. This adorable boy could probably stand to lose a few pounds, right now he's got just a touch of extra fluff to love! Shaggy has impeccable manners — he walks nicely on leash, is crate trained, and does just fine when left alone (he’ll likely just curl up for a nap). He’s friendly with men, women, and kids of all ages, and he’s also great with other small dogs. While playdates give him a fun little spark, he’s also happy as an only dog — he’s all about peaceful companionship. Shaggy’s low-key personality makes him a perfect match for a relaxed household — singles, adults, or seniors who prefer quiet days and cozy evenings. He plays quietly with toys and loves to be your cuddle buddy and calm companion. Shaggy came to us a bit matted and with a mild, treatable skin infection, so he’s on the mend and just starting to show his sweet personality as he heals. His adopter will need to be patient as his hair grows back and he regains his full fluff — but his loving eyes and gentle nature already shine through. He’s also been recently shaved, so expect an adorable transformation once his coat returns!  If you’re looking for a calm, affectionate friend who will adore you and make every day a little cozier, Shaggy Rogers is your guy.
