Story
Elf is approx 6 years old, and we think a Maltese or Maltese-mix. He is shy when meeting new people, but he warms up quickly! He's so little, he will do best in a home with no/older human kiddos. He enjoys the company of other dogs. He also learns quickly & is super treat motivated. (He'll even dance on his back legs if he thinks one is on its way!)  Visual breed identification in dogs is unreliable so for most of the dogs we are only guessing at predominant breed or breed mix. We get to know each dog as an individual and will do our best to describe each of our dogs based on personality, not by breed label. Each dog in our rescue is in a loving foster home, where they can grow, play, and recover from their time spent on the streets or in a shelter. If you'd like to meet an adoptable dog, please fill out an application on our website, www.edcr.org. Because we are a foster home based rescue a completed adoption application is required to meet our adoptable dogs. April 22, 2024, 11:51 pm

Story
Daisy is a fearful girl who was part of a hoarding situation. She enjoys snacks and running in and out of the dog door. She does not like petting or cuddling, but she does like chin scratches and giving her foster mom nose kisses early in the morning. Daisy does not walk well on a leash, so she'd do best in a home with a fenced in yard.  She would like a home with another dog who is laid back and doesn't mind the company. She does not want a home with children as she will try to bite their ankles or a hyper dog (she will bite their legs and bully them). Daisy's ideal home is very quiet and willing to be patient with her issues. She prefers someone who doesn't mind putting her away when guests show up so that she doesn't try to bully them into leaving again.  Daisy's adoption fee is $25. She is spayed, vaccinated and microchipped. ##1494404##

Story
    Dexter is a loving guy however, he takes time to warm up to new people and it is on his time not yours. If he is just allowed to transition into his new home on his own, without a human trying to force it to quickly he will do fine. Does well with other dogs, no cats and no small children. We require   that you have a fenced in yard, not a "kennel" in the yard AND we do not approve underground fencing. Depending upon the dog some exceptions are made for those who live in apartments.   We also require that the adoptee will be a part of the family "living" within the home. Our adoption process may be found on our website at www.bitofheaven.org Visits are scheduled by appointment only via emailing request to ownedbycaninesandlovit@yahoo.com   April 20, 2024, 12:20 am
