Story
Popcorn is about 18 lbs., 14 years old and according to Google lens, a West highland terrier. Animal Care Services thought he was a Maltese mix and foster mom thinks he could be a Schnauzer/Maltese mix but knows for sure that he is the cutest scruffy EVER!!! His journey hasn't been all snuggles and treats as he lived on someone's apartment patio for years, lying in poop, grass and other debris until Animal Care Services came for him and God's Dogs Rescue was able to save the little scamp. While he still loves his humans, other gentle pups his size (cats unknown) and his squishy toys and chewy, understandably he has a few emotional scars especially regarding vet visits and grooming. Slow, patient progress in these areas has helped him be more confident, but will need a patient adopter to help him adapt. Things that make Popcorn super happy are spending time with his humans after he gets to know them, car rides and walks in the park. He loves, loves his squishy toys and generally carries one around with him. His most favorite game is for his person to chase him and pretend to take his squishy away. He also like to run zooms and if there isn't a person to play with he will often throw his toys for himself. Doesn't that just make you want to throw his stuffies so he can play?? He's a healthy guy for his age with just a few old man issues (beginnings of cataracts) that he takes supplements for and should continue taking. His liver enzymes were high when tested but he is on a med to help them normalize. Can you give this boy the right lap to live in?? He needs very patient/knowledgeable adopters, no children- adult only because he will bite if afraid... It is a work in progress but he is becoming the goofy boy he was meant to be while living on the nasty hot and freezing porch for most of his 14 yrs :( GIVE HIM A CHANCE!!! Local adoption only $200 (in TX)

Story
Meet Crouton! ??This 5-year-old, 6.7-pound Maltese mix might be small in size, but she’s big on fluff and full of heart. Crouton was sadly surrendered through no fault of her own when her previous family lost their home. Now, she’s hoping to land somewhere soft and loving to call her own.Crouton is an adorable little lady who loves to explore, run around, and do her own thing—but don’t be surprised when she leaps right into your arms for some cuddles (yes, it’s as cute as it sounds). She does well in her crate, seems to be potty-trained, and hasn’t minded the other dogs around her.This sweet girl will need a dental in the near future, but don’t worry—she’s ready to flash that charming smile for her new family soon enough. If you`re looking for a tiny best friend with a gentle spirit and just the right amount of sass, Crouton might be your perfect match. ??We do all adoptions with approved applicants by appointment only. If you are interested in adopting, please contact us via FB Messenger or email us at jcasreception@co.johnson.in.us for an application.
