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
Delia is a little ray of sunshine! She’s as sweet as they come, loving, happy, and always ready to soak up every bit of affection you’re willing to give. Whether she’s cuddled up next to you, napping in a sunny spot, or heading out for a nice walk, Delia is simply happiest being part of your day. She loves her food, her people, and all the simple pleasures in life. Her foster family shared that she settled into their home quickly, as if she’d always belonged there. Delia is friendly and affectionate, though she can be a little hesitant around new people at first and prefers gentle introductions. She doesn’t like being startled or picked up by people she doesn’t know well, but once she feels safe, her sweet personality shines through. She’s also quite vocal when she’s excited or wants to tell you something! For her age, Delia has a surprising amount of energy and has recently discovered how much fun toys can be. She especially enjoys playing with her foster sister and joining in on daily activities. While baths aren’t exactly her favorite thing, she tolerates them like a champ. Delia came to us from animal control, but it’s clear she was once very loved and cared for—she has wonderful manners and an easygoing nature. Adaptable, affectionate, and full of personality, Delia would thrive in a patient home that respects her boundaries and gives her the love and reassurance she deserves. If you’re looking for a loyal companion with a playful side and a heart of gold, Delia might just be your perfect match.   Stop by our weekly adoption events on Saturdays from 11:00-3:00pm 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 adoptables!  https://www.facebook.com/reachrescue ##2692352##

Story
Meet Amber Amber is a 5-year-old Maltese weighing just 10 pounds, looking for a loving forever home through Tiny Paws Small Dog Rescue. Amber came from a puppy mill, so she is still learning that people can be kind and trustworthy. She can be timid at first, but she is making progress every single day with patience, love, and gentle encouragement. She gets along wonderfully with other dogs and especially loves her best friend, Betty. The two of them run and play in the fields together and are constant companions indoors and outdoors. Because she loves the companionship and confidence she gains from other dogs, Amber would do best in a home with another friendly companion dog. Amber uses puppy pads, rides nicely in the car without getting sick, and takes treats very gently from your hand. She also enjoys curling up in your lap and being softly petted. Amber is still gaining confidence, so she will need a calm, patient home that understands she needs time to fully blossom after the years she spent in a puppy mill. She is also considered a flight risk, so a physically fenced yard is required for her safety. Invisible/electric fences will not be considered. In return, you’ll get to watch a sweet little soul learn what love truly feels like. If you are interested in giving Amber the second chance she deserves, please fill out an adoption application with Tiny Paws Small Dog Rescue. Amber is located in Rockford, IL with Kathy Mehalko.

Story
Snowball - puppy, female, small, Maltese mix Meet Snowball — a tiny 4-month-old female Maltese puppy with a huge personality packed into one fluffy tiny body (currently weighs 2.5 pounds)! This adorable girl is full of puppy energy, curiosity, and charm, and she’s ready to find a family that can keep up with her fun-loving spirit. Snowball loves toys, zoomies, cuddles, and exploring the world one tiny pawstep at a time. Because she’s so small, she’ll need a safe and secure environment where she can play, learn, and grow without too many big-dog or big-kid hazards around her. Like any puppy, Snowball is still learning all the important puppy basics and will need patience, consistency, and lots of love as she continues her training. In return, she promises endless entertainment, sweet snuggles, and a best friend who will make you smile every single day. Snowball is current on her puppy vaccines and her spay will be covered by Tiny Paws Small Dog Rescue once she turns 16 weeks old. If you would like to meet this sweet gal, please fill out an application at tinypawssmalldogrescue.org or contact Sara at 224-600-2547.

Story
Sophie - 4 years old, small, maltese Momma Sophie is a sweet 4-year-old Maltese with a gentle heart and a love for the quiet life. This little lady is affectionate, loyal, and happiest when curled up beside her favorite person soaking in all the love and attention. Sophie is looking for a calm, peaceful home where she can truly relax and feel safe. Loud environments and lots of chaos aren’t really her style — she’d much rather enjoy cozy blankets, sunny windows, walks, and quiet evenings with her humans. She has a soft, loving personality and forms strong bonds with the people she trusts. Once she settles in, becomes the ultimate little companion, always nearby with her sweet eyes and calm presence. If you’re searching for a gentle best friend who will bring warmth, comfort, and unconditional love into your home, Sophie may just be your perfect match. Sophie has been spayed and is now current on her vaccines. She is being fostered in Woodstock, IL and has an adoption fee of $600.
