Story
Background: Star was given to me when I was 14 by my neighbor. The neighbor was not able to provide much for her and left her with me, with two existing conditions I wasn't aware of. She has bad teeth and her arm sometimes limps. Vets assume she is around 10-14 years right now. What we wish for Star is a quiet suburban area. A family with kids could be great but she needs a lot of attention and love. She is a homebody but does love sunny warm days. She may be an old dog with a chronic arm issue but that does not stop her from enjoying herself. She is loyal and gentle, and protective. She does not enjoy large dogs or crowded dog parks. We definitely believe that an older couple with a grassy backyard would enjoy her company. She loves kids as well.

A little pocket rocket! As a breeder surrender, she is still getting use to people and the outdoors, however, she is curious and still loves to be held and stroked. she will happily lay and stare at what is happening around her from her bed, or will follow you out of the room and then run back to her bed once you start to come back. she is still exploring outside and working on her leash manners, but when on the leash, she wants to walk in her own direction and explore her immediate surroundings. Apart from that, she loves being in the carrier and taken outside like that! Fill out all below:Personality & Characteristics:My foster dog is good with: dogs & kidsMy foster dog is: Crate trained and hypoallergenic 3 Keywords for your pup:Energy Level (1= calm, 10= high energy): 3Barker?

Story
Lucky’s is a sweet, beautiful little dog. He wears a belly wrap as he came "housebroken", but is not, but we feel he can be trained. His foster has a fenced in yard and he loves it, we don’t put the belly wrap on him during the day while he’s able to go outside in the backyard and he’s doing wonderful with potty training. His foster mama absolutely loves him. He would be perfect in a retired couple's or woman's home. He would do fine with female dogs. He is smart and listens to commands. He is a little tad bit spoiled. He would be fine with older children but not toddlers. He loves his human and sleeps great in the bed. He is a great dog!Please fill out your application and we will process it and call you. We have a 606 area code when we call. strayheartsrescue@outlook.com https://forms.gle/suhbpui9RXiVmvoJ9

Story
My name is GRUMPY and I’m a 5y M Tan Shih Tzu X. I’m 15 lbs of PURE SWEET GROUCHINESS. I was brought to a police precinct in the Bronx, NY and luckily the rescue was able to save me before I was taken to the shelter. I was affectionately named Grumpy because I was not immediately warm and fuzzy with the foster mom and growled at her a lot… but once I got to know her and she went slow with me to introduce me to her household… I trusted her and she can do anything to me now. I’m a little guarded with strangers and rightly so because I was pretty much neglected by my previous family. I’m housebroken and walk well on the leash and I can be picked up and handled as long as you slow. I’m a nice guy but nervous at first so I need someone who is going to be patient and believe in me and give me the TLC I need. I’m good with small dogs but am afraid of big dogs and will snap/snark at them. I’ve not met any cats so not sure about them and best if I don’t go with any young kids. I prefer to be the ONLY DOG so I can get all the attention that I never got in my previous home. My only other vice is that it’s not easy to groom me.. I’m nervous around objects coming to my face so I need to go to an experienced groomer but I was fine being handled by the vet. I need a QUIET ADULT ONLY home with someone or a couple that are home a lot and have had previous experience with a “grumpy” dog and are willing to give me the TLC and believe in me to make me the SWEET AND LOVING dog I know I can be!! If that’s you.. pls request an application by sending an email to: INFO@TAILSOFLOVERESCUE.ORGApril 9, 2024, 6:10 pm

Story
Meet Bunny! She needs a foster or foster to adopt commitment ASAP:  Found as a stray in Brooklyn, Bunny may be a Maltese mix, but she's got a heart as big as her size! Estimated to be 6 years old and weighing in at a whopping 30 pounds, Bunny's got a unique story to tell. Sure, she's a little on the chunky side and her back legs might need a bit of TLC, but don't let that fool you - this girl's got charm for days! Bunny is all about those chill vibes. She's mellow, loves nothing more than lounging on the couch with her people nearby, and brisk walks when she’s up for it. Bunny may need a little extra help in the mobility department, but she's a trooper. She's social with all people and has tested well with other pups. Plus, she's so quiet you might forget she's there (seriously, she hasn't barked once in her temp foster)!   So, if you're looking for a low-key companion to share some couch cuddles with, Bunny's your girl. Email us if you're ready to give this sweet girl the loving home she deserves at foster@rescuecity.nyc  ##2009039##
