Story
********AVAILABLE******* Hi Everyone, My name is Baxter and I am a 6lb 6-7 year old Maltese. I’m hoping that I can find a family who is up for somewhat of a challenge. Maybe a Unicorn family so to speak? I’ve been called “A terrible dog”. Unpredictable and just plain crazy. People just haven’t been able to understand my quirks. I’m nothing but misunderstood!! I do need some time to adjust as something in my past has left me very nervous. My human mom passed away and I was put into the system. I’m used to a quiet and peaceful home. My human foster sister is my most favorite person ever and her mom is pretty nice too. If you have patience and lots of love I’m your guy! Am I a bit of a challenge? Maybe!! Am I cute as cute can be? Definitely!!, Am I worth the effort? You bet I am!! I am an adorable and smart little boy. When I like you….I would do anything for you!! If I don’t, then I’m a bit of a tiny Jerk!! Investing your time and love into me will be so worth it!! I promise!! I am good with other animals. I get along with all sizes and ages of dogs. Please contact jbrescuerangers@yahoo.com for an adoption application and bring me home if your my Unicorn!! I will come with the works (Neutered, up to date on everything, micro chipped, fecal, heart worm tested if age appropriate, monthly heartworm, flea and tick prevented, a free vet visit and medical insurance). What more could a new family ask for? Love and Kisses, Misunderstood Baxter

Story
Meet sweet Possum. This sweet senior found his way to us through animal control. He had a severe flea infestation causing his hair to fall out on his back and leave him feeling miserable. He is on the up and improving and showing that he has a wonderful and very calm demeanor. He is gentle, dog and cat friendly, quiet in his kennel, and a true gentleman. This guy deserves a family of his own and has so much to offer. Please consider being his second chance.
