Story
This tiny little duo are sisters who were surrendered together as their parents could no longer care for them.  They are estimated to be about 10 years old, they are completely bonded and must remain together for the rest of their lives.  Don't let their age fool you, these 2 are active, and sometimes vocal.  They're affectionate, and quite comical together.  The girls are spayed, we had their core vaccines updated, all they need now is a forever home.  We had extensive bloodwork done, and all medical records are available to any potential adopters.   Interested in adopting me?  To fill out an application visit 3 Hearts 4 Paws.  Please note: we generally do not adopt out of state unless it is within 1-2 hours of us.  Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.February 15, 2025, 4:43 pm

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Little Man (aka Snowman) is a handsome boy who is looking for a furever home. Little Man is now in a NJ foster home. Little Man is a sweet, loving boy who loves to be held and loved on. He is truly a lap dog!  He is friendly with everyone including other dogs. He is calm and well behaved, happiest snuggling with his favorite people - foster mom and dad. Little Man is fixed, up to date on vaccines and microchipped. He recently had a dental cleaning too.  Little Man has a grade three heart murmur so he is on Vetmedin (an oral medication) to help his heart function more efficiently. Little Man  tested positive for heartworm. Due to the murmur, he is being treated via slow-kill heartworm treatment which includes oral antibiotics every 6 months and heartworm prevention over a period of 1-3 years until the heartworms are no longer present.  His adoption fee is $300.   Adopting a dog is a commitment that will require annual veterinary care at a minimum, training, exercise, enrichment, etc. Pet care is not cheap or easy and adopters should consider the costs, time and training   prior to adoption. After all these dogs have been through they deserve a loving, committed home. How to Adopt Me! If you are interested in learning more about me, and possibly making me part of your family, please go to wagoninn.rescuegroups.org. Click on the orange  Online Adoption Application  button to fill out an application. A Wag On Inn volunteer will be in touch soon!

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.ORGOctober 21, 2024, 12:19 am

Story
Meet sweet Daishi, a charming 12-year-old Maltese Lhasa Apso mix weighing just 20 pounds. Daishi’s loving mom has moved to assisted living, so now this gentle senior is looking for a quiet, forever home where she can enjoy her golden years in comfort and peace.  Daishi is a wonderful companion who walks nicely on a leash and gets along well with other dogs in her foster home. She prefers to sleep cozy on her dog bed at night rather than in a crate, and she loves basking in the warm spring sunshine outdoors.  If you have a calm home and a heart ready to give Daishi the love she deserves, she would be so grateful to join your family. To open your home to Daishi and make her senior years happy and full of love, please fill out an adoption application at oneloveanimalrescue.org.To be considered as this pet's adopter, please go to  https://oneloveanimalrescue.org/adoption-applications/dog-application/ to complete your application.
