Story
Meet CJ, a sweet Maltese mix who was surrendered to our rescue after his former family said they had no time for him. Poor CJ was completely matted from head to toe and carried a sadness that broke our hearts, but his first groom brought him immense relief and a glimmer of hope in his eyes. Now, he’s ready for the next chapter of his life – one filled with love and care. CJ would thrive best in an adult-only home where he can feel safe and adored. He’s okay with other small dogs and is eager to finally experience the warmth of a true forever family.

Story
Simon is A Puppy Born In A Puppy Mill. Thankfully, the breeder didn't have use for him giving Simon a chance out of the mill. We took him and now he is free to find his forever committed family. Simon is a very happy active puppy. He is high energy and a vocal fellow if he isn't getting what he wants! He will do best in a home, not an apartment or condo setting. Simon is happy to have a companion dog to play with. He is fine with cats and all people. Simon needs to learn house manners. He and his family would also benefit from a puppy training class. Like all puppies he will need structure and a patient loving home. We recommend training for all puppies not only to give the puppy learning skill. But you and your puppy/dog will create a stronger bond just for having gone to training. Simon is fully vetted, He has been neutered, has received age appropriate vaccines, microchipped, Subsequent vaccines are at the expense of his adopter, His adoption donation is $1200.00. He is on the hunt for his own completely committed family, Little Dogs can live to be 20+ years old so he wants to be sure his family is all in 100% for better or for worse! IF INTERESTED IN A PUPPY (UNDER 12 MONTHS): YOU MUST HAVE A FLEXIBLE WORK SCHEDULE OR SOMEONE HOME ALL DAY. PUPPIES NEED TO BE LET OUT TO POTTY OFTEN, THEY NEED SOCIALIZATION AND BONDING AND NEED TRAINING (HOUSETRAINING AND BEHAVIORAL TRAINING). IF YOU WORK LONG HOURS, HAVE A BUSY SOCIAL SCHEDULE OR NOT FINANCIALLY SECURE THEN A PUPPY IS NOT FOR YOU. We adopt in the local Chicago metro area. We require home visits, If you would like to apply to be considered as an adoption candidate to adopt Simon please fill out an application for him adoption on our website at: https://www.rescuetailsanimalwelfare.org/info/aoption We are all volunteers with full time jobs. We try to get back to all applicants within 72 hours. If you have any questions please feel free to reach out to us at: RescueTailsAnimalWelfare@gmail.com. f you aren't looking to adopt, but still would like to help Simon please consider a donation for his food, housing, and veterinary care. To donate, please visit: https://www.rescuetailsanimalwelfare.org/

Story
LOCAL TN ADOPTION ONLY. Thanks to a generous donor, Buttons adoption fee has been sponsored! let me tell you about Button...she is a sweet little lap dog. That should be the end of the story, but it's not. She is 9.0 years old and was surrendered to a shelter after her owner passed away. Our rescue pulled her and she has been in a my home as a foster for 6 months. At this stage of her life, Button is looking to run the show, at least in terms of getting her needs met. She is not demanding. She will be every bit as sweet to you as you are to her. She loves to sit on your lap and be petted. However, she is not here for your shenanigans and will not participate in your tomfoolery. Mess with her feet or her butt and she will give you a warning snap. One is all you get. If you don't aggravate her, you'll never see her dark side. She was groomed recently (with a muzzle) and attempted to bite nearly the entire time. But once she was finished, and the muzzle came off, she was sweet as could be instantly. She does not hold a grudge. She is pee pad trained although she will sometimes go potty outside Senior dog Adoption Fee of $112.50 Includes Age-Appropriate Vaccinations (DA2PPV, Bordetella, Rabies), Deworming, Spay/Neuter, Microchip, Flea, Tick and Heartworm Treatment and Prevention, and Sheltering. Adult Dogs are Heartworm Tested and treated if necessary. All dogs are given monthly heartworm, flea and tick preventative.LOCATED IN CROSSVILLE, CUMBERLAND COUNTY, TN. WE CAN TRANSPORT OUT OF STATE, Visit out website for a full list of adoptable pets… https://foccas-tn.org/
