Spike is a handsome maltipoo mix. He can be a little shy at first, it takes him a minute to trust someone and warm up. But once he does, you have best friend for life! He is a very happy cuddly dog. Spike has the most fun natural blonde Mohawk that just adds to his charm! DOB 5/8/24 and around 25 lbs. Spike prefers a home without cats and, honestly, would do best as the only furry companion. He can be a bit of an attention hog and doesn’t like to share his favorite human! He would also do best in a home with no kids or kids over 12, who will respect his personal space while he adjusts to a new environment. He does have a lot of energy, so he also has his paws crossed for a backyard with a privacy fence! Find our application on our website https://www.tailsoftheforgottenpaws.org/

About Me: Name:  Coconut Breed (or best guess): Maltese or Maltese-Poodle Approximate Age: DOB 10/22/18 Gender: F Approximate Weight: 8 lb Adoption Fee: $495 Requirements: Loving, patient family, fenced yard and another dog is best Why In Rescue: puppy mill survivor Profile:   Coconut came from a commercial breeder/puppy farmer who was no longer going to use her for breeding.  She is a shy but friendly girl who is going to need some time to learn to be social with human. She is learning to trust and as she is with us more we will work on things like leash walking, but right now just getting her more socialized and use to living around people is what we work on. Dogs from commercial breeders are generally undersocialized (often very scared/shy/skittish) and probably never lived in a house.  They will need to learn things like how to walk on a leash, go up stairs, and what things like a television are.  They need a patient adopter who will give them the time they need to adjust and to learn to trust people.  Every baby step forward needs to be celebrated, and the dog needs to be accepted for who they are at each step.  Some dogs can adjust quickly and learn how to be a loved pet pretty easily.  Others can take a long time to even be comfortable with things like walking through the house and being in the same room as a person.  No matter how far and how fast the breeder dogs progress, they are wonderful dogs and deserve a great home after their life on the puppy farm.  A fence or at least a secure fenced in potty area is highly recommended for the dog's safety, and may be required for some dogs.  Another small dog in the house can also help many former breeders adjust faster to life in a home, and also may be required in some cases.  We do put the needs of the dog's first, so it is nothing personal if we determine a particular dog isn't suitable for your specific home and living situation. If considering adopting a former breeding dog, the following article is good to read to help you understand the special needs these dogs may have.  http://nowisconsinpuppymills.com/mill-survivors.html If interested in adoption, the first step is filling out the pre-adoption application at http://www.bichonrescues.com/pre-adoption-form-dog  If link isn't clickable, please copy/paste or visit http://www.bichonrescues.com.  Please note, filling out inquiry forms on Petfinder or Adoptapet and/or their application forms does not constitute an application for one of our dogs.  Priority in responding to inquires and applications is always to the applications filled out on our website, time constraints limit the number of other inquires we can reply to. We do our best to evaluate the dogs while they are with us, but they sometimes act different in the shelter environment than they do in a home.  Many times we do not know the actual breed/mix or age of the dog, in that case we use our best guess as to breed and age.   We are located in Mukwonago, WI.  Adopters must come to us, we do not ship our dogs.  Please do not apply for a dog until you are ready to adopt.  Once an application is approved you will be notified by email to make an appointment to meet the dog.  All dogs are seen by appointment only. The adoption fee through Bichon and Little Buddies Rescue is $495 for most adults and up to $650 for puppies which includes Wi State Sales Tax.  Included in this fee is your new companion who will be spayed/neutered, have a current Certificate of Veterinary Inspection (as required by state law), current on age appropriate vaccinations, heartworm tested (if old enough) and started on preventative, microchipped, and given a general wormer.  Other medical needs will also have been taken care of, such as dentals and treating ear infections.  To assist you and your new pet in adjusting to life together, you may chose to take an 8 week age appropriate obedience training course at For Pet's Sake Dog Training in Mukwonago, WI for $100 (up to $260 value).  You may opt to take Puppy Kindergarten, Adult Beginners, or Small Dogs Big Hearts.  You must register for the class within 90 days of adoption for the reduced fee.  For more information on the classes visit www.forpetssake.cc  More important information: ***We are a Wisconsin based rescue and do not ship our pets.  If you are considering adoption you must be willing to drive to meet and adopt the pet, as well as bring the pet back to us if the adoption doesn't work.  We adopt primarily in WI and IL, but will consider applicants in MN, IA, and MI.*** ***Please do not set up an appointment to meet the animals until you are ready to take your pet home.  If the meeting results in a match, you can often take the dog/cat home the same day or within a couple days if the medical care hasn't been completed.  We are not able to hold pets for adopters beyond this time.  Thanks for understanding.*** ***While we hope all of our adoptions lead to permanent homes for the animals we place, sometimes things just don't work out.  We do have a 30 day trial period.  For the first 30 days, if you or Bichon and Little Buddies decide that the adoption isn't a good match for either the humans or the pet, the adoption fee will be refunded minus $100 within 30 days of the return of the dog.  Bichon and Little Buddies also requires adopters to return the pet to us at any time that they are unable or unwilling to care for the animal anymore.*** ***We do not show dogs without an appointment.  The first step in adoption is filling out the pre-adoption application at http://www.bichonrescues.com/pre-adoption-form-dog  Please do not call/email until AFTER you have filled out an application.*** Bichon and Little Buddies is a State Licensed Rescue # 268555-DS October 18, 2026, 6:09 pm

Meet Tobey! Tobey is a 6-year-young boy who has been through more than any dog should have to endure, but despite his difficult past, this sweet guy is ready to put all of that behind him and find the loving forever home he deserves. Tobey came to us from Waukegan Animal Control after being found severely matted and neglected. He is now getting the care, attention, and love he should have had all along—and he is showing everyone just how sweet he can be. Tobey is potty trained and crate trained, and he is working on his leash manners and marking. He does well with other dogs and seems to really enjoy having canine companionship around him. In fact, having another dog in his forever home may help him feel more relaxed and comfortable. This boy loves being around his people and has the potential to be an incredibly loving little lap dog. He enjoys going for walks, being with his humans, and rolling onto his back on anything soft and comfy. He is also VERY food motivated, which is great news because Tobey seems to be a smart guy who is eager to learn! Tobey does have some things that his forever family will need to understand. He does not like having his head or ears touched, and adopters will need to respect this boundary. At times, he may unexpectedly howl and turn toward a person as if he might nip when his head or ears are touched. He has not bitten, but this is something his family will need to take seriously and work with patiently. For this reason, we feel Tobey would do best in a home without young children at this time. Tobey also doesn't love being left alone, so someone who is home more often would be wonderful, although it isn't necessarily a requirement. A quieter home with people who can give him time, patience, and consistency would be ideal. Once Tobey feels safe and understands that he is loved, we believe there is a very sweet, affectionate dog waiting to come out. He doesn't need someone to expect perfection from him—he needs someone willing to understand his past, respect his boundaries, continue working on his training, and show him what it feels like to be cared for. And one very important part of Tobey's forever-home commitment will be regular grooming. After experiencing severe matting and neglect, keeping his coat properly maintained will be essential to his health and comfort. Regular trips to the groomer will help Tobey stay happy, healthy, comfortable, and looking as adorable as he deserves to be. Tobey has been through enough. Now he deserves a soft bed, a loving human, some yummy treats, a few good walks, a doggy friend if possible, and most importantly, a family who will be patient with him while he learns that he is finally safe. If you're looking for a sweet, food-motivated, goofy little guy who would love nothing more than to become your loving lap dog, Tobey may be waiting for you.   Stop by our weekly adoption events on Saturdays from 11-3 pm at 372 Townline Road in Mundelein, IL 60060 to meet our adoptable animals in person.   Follow us on Facebook for additional updates and sneak peeks of new dogs!  https://www.facebook.com/reachrescue ##2820568##
