Story
Princess is a darling 5-year-old Maltese mix with a heart full of love and a gentle spirit. She’s happiest curled up on a warm lap, handing out kisses to her favorite people. This little lady adores running around a fenced yard and especially enjoys playing in the snow—she hops and zooms like it’s her own winter wonderland! She rides beautifully in the car and walks well on a leash. Princess is working on her potty training and making good progress. She’s comfortable living with or without another dog, and she does wonderfully at the groomer. While she hasn’t shown much interest in toys, she’s more than happy to soak up affection and companionship instead. Princess needs a home without small children, but with the right person or family, she will blossom into the sweetest little companion. A fenced yard is REQUIRED. If you're looking for a loyal lap dog who loves snuggles, sunshine, and snowy playtime, Princess may be your perfect match! Princess is spayed, up to date on all vaccines, heart worm negative, on heartworm preventative, de-wormed, had a dental, and microchipped. Princess’s adoption fee is $400.00. Please go to our website aaprescue.org to learn about our adoption process.

Story
*****A fenced in yard and confident friendly dog in the home would be best***** ✨ Clover is Still Waiting… ✨ Meet Clover, a 3-year-old former mill dog who finally got her Thanksgiving miracle — freedom, safety, and her first real chance at a happy life. 💚🍀 Clover has come so far, but she’s still a shy, sensitive girl who needs a family with unlimited patience, gentle arms, a calm home, and a securely fenced yard. (Yes — a fenced yard is required.) She is tiny and quick, and still has a little “catch me if you can” energy, so safety is everything for her. What Clover does love? 💚 Being held by her foster mom 💚 Cuddling with her furry foster siblings 💚 Quiet moments, gentle reassurance, and someone who understands her pace 💚 Having another calm dog to show her the ropes Once she’s in your arms, she melts right in — she just needs someone willing to help her feel brave every day. She has healed from her spay, she’s getting braver with every sunrise, and she’s so ready for a patient family willing to love her exactly as she is. Clover has tried cute accessories… she’s tried humor… she’s even tried Thanksgiving-themed glamour shots… but what she really wants is a family who sees her — her sweetness, her softness, her hope. 💛 If you have a peaceful home, a secure fenced yard, and a gentle doggy friend to help her continue blossoming, please consider giving this beautiful girl the forever she’s been dreaming of. With love, Clover 🍀💛

Story
*A fenced in yard is needed* Pearl will be fixed mid October and will be available to go home then- she is accepting applications which will be called the week of the 20th. Pearl is a very nervous girl who would need a very quiet home and patient owners. She needs to be carried outside into a play yard or kept on a leash at all times. She was a breeder release who spent most of her life with humans who did not pay much positive attention to her, so she is scared of people. She does want attention and allows you to hold her, but she does run when you bend down to pick her up and does not come willingly. Pearl is partially potty trained and could use some work but does well in a crate.
