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.

Our hearts hurt for Gordo and his friend Canelo. They were left on the road and thankfully a good samaritan brought them to the shelter on 1/18. Gordo is 3 years old and weighs in at 16 pounds. He is a sweetheart! He knows to sit when asked. He is a perfect gentleman on a leash. Once he has a spa day, he will be even more handsome! Are you already in love with this cute boy?
