Story
Hi… I’m Ozzie. They think I’m a Poodle/Maltese mix, about 5 years old, and I weigh just over 9 pounds. I may be pint-sized, but my heart? It’s huge. I love everyone I meet, and even after everything, I’m just so happy to be here. I do well in my crate, but if I’m being honest, my favorite place in the whole world is your lap. That’s where I feel safest. That’s where I feel like I belong. I’m playful with my foster buddies and I don’t bother the cat at all. I looove treats (I get extra wiggly when I see them!), and I get so excited when the leash comes out because that means I get to go outside and feel the fresh air. Every little thing feels like a gift to me. Before this, I came from a very scary shelter. I had been on my own for a long time, and my fur was so matted and tangled that they had to shave me down. I was a little mess. But my hair is growing back now, and I’m starting to look pretty cute again — and it feels really good to be cared for. They think my foot might have been run over by a car at some point. I have three broken toes. Nobody knows exactly what happened to me back then… but I do know this: it doesn’t slow me down. I still run, I still play, I still love with everything I have. I don’t dwell on the hard parts. I just want to be close to someone. I just want a soft lap, gentle hands, and a home where I’ll never be alone or forgotten again. I’m small. I’m resilient. I’m full of love. And I’m waiting for my forever person.

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
A foster-to-adopt option is available for me, giving us the chance to get to know each other before making it official! Penelope is a gorgeous little girl with an attitude. She is very sweet, but does have triggers. Penelope will require a home with no small children and a fenced yard. Once she gets to know you, she loves you. The ideal family would have experience with small dogs with an attitude. If you’re interested, please apply to furkids.org. Penelope Lou currently weighs about 8lbs., is approximately 11 years old (est. birth date 02/01/2015), and her adoption fee is $185. Penelope Lou has been spayed, is up to date on all vaccinations & preventatives, and is microchipped. If you want to know more about Penelope Lou, please complete a survey at https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/FKDS/Dog. After submitting a survey, an adoption counselor will contact you within 72 hours to give you more information about the dog you are interested in adopting and to arrange for you to meet. You must be at least 21 years of age to adopt.
