Story
It was 5am. The call went out: Send the Police! 🚨 Adorned in protective gear, the police approached the house timidly - unsure what they'd find inside. The homeowner had called frantically. A monster may be lying in wait...As the door sprung open, a demon emerged: fluffy, 12lb, 8 year old Christopher. Street name: Christo-FURY.Look at him the wrong way, and he'll have something to say. Interrupt his nap and you'll never hear the end of it. While he may look like a perfectly cuddly lapdog, he is ANYTHING BUT. That 5am call to the police about a 12lb dog terrorizing her? That's true...and, that's how Christopher finds himself with us now. A wannabe police dog, this Maltese/Shih Tzu mix found himself on the outside looking in at the Police Dog Academy. HIs bark found insufficiently fearsome, and his tiny frame unfit for the riggers of police life. Now: all bark, no badge. Many things offend our little ChristoFURY. On the short list: men, children, strangers, neighbors, delivery people, repairmen, vets, groomers, sharing food, big or energetic dogs.Christopher definitely has some good qualities, too. He's quite a charmer with the ladies - often able to hide his devious side. Christopher gives plenty of warning if you learn his rules and listen to them. He's a good walker, non-shedding, and smart. Overall, Christopher is in great health other than a mild heart murmur which doesn't require medication. Beyond a patient one, we aren't sure what home will suit this little devil best. He may accept the presence of another chill dog, does not want kisses goodnight or to be woken up too early in the morning, and can be bribed with chicken and cheese. If you are still reading and thinking this sounds like a great dog to adopt, please make an appointment with a good therapist(KIDDING), and apply at RBARI.org/dogs so we can broker a meeting with ChristoFURY.If you think you can "fix" him, don't bother - those relationships never work out if you aren't ready to accept each other flaws and all, and he's done with trying to fit into society's convention of what a "pet" should be and looking to live life on his terms - with the rap sheet to prove it.

Everything about affection, attention, and daily life is still new to her, and she needs adopters who can move slowly, create a predictable routine, and let her build confidence at her own pace. A quieter household with gentle people who wont rush her will help her feel safe enough to open up. With steady reassurance and consistent love, shell gradually learn what comfort, companionship, and affection truly feel like and she will blossom when shes finally ready.WHY DID THEY COME TO WISE: Snowglobe spent her entire life as a breeding dog in a puppy mill. When her 'breeders' decided they no longer had a use for her, they planned to discard her. Thankfully, WISE was able to step in and rescue her giving her a second chance to experience the love and warmth of a real home. Now shes ready to start that new chapter!Personality: Snowglobe is slowly starting to come out of her shell, and were beginning to see some wonderful signs of progress. She recently walked outside on her own, showing a little bit of confidence, and even let her foster pick her up and hold her without any fear. These small victories show how much trust shes building, and its clear shes trying her best to feel safe and connect with the people around her. KIDS: Yes, kids 10+DOGS: YesCATS: YesTraining: Snowglobe is still in the very early stages of settling in, so for now her routine is all about comfort and feeling safe. She spends most of her time relaxing in her bed inside her open crate, which is clearly her preferred safe space. She has been reliably using the wee-wee pads set up in her penned area, and she sleeps in her crate at night, though she feels most secure when someone is nearby. At this point, building trust and consistency is more important than formal training, and she is doing well with the gentle routine that helps her feel supported.Visit WiseAnimalRescue.org to fill out an adoption application.Adoption areas include: New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, Maine, Vermont, Virginia, Delaware, Maryland, the District of Columbia, Rhode Island, and New Hampshire.

Shes quite timid and often cowers when someone approaches, but once shes in your arms, she melts right in and will peacefully fall asleep on your lap. Shes beginning to show small signs of trustlike coming forward to lick your hand before retreating againand these moments show just how much love she has to give once she feels safe. A quiet, understanding household that can offer reassurance, steady affection, and a calm environment would be the perfect match for her.WHY DID THEY COME TO WISE: Snowball spent her entire life as a breeding dog in a puppy mill.

Now shes ready to start that new chapter!Personality: Snowball is an absolute cuddle bunny who wants nothing more than to be by your side. She happily sleeps in bed with her person and finds comfort just being close. If she knows youre home but not right next to her, shell let out the sweetest little howl until you returnher adorable way of asking for reassurance and company. Shes affectionate, devoted, and truly happiest when shes wrapped up in love and attention.KIDS: Yes, kids 10+DOGS: Yes, a patient dog willing to teach her the ropes on how to be playfulCATS: YesTraining: Snowball currently has a crate set up inside a pen, and while she likes to sit in her crate with the door open,being confined makes her uncomfortable. Shes still learning how to navigate the world on a leash. A harness works much better for her than anything around her neck, especially when paired with a coat that helps it fit securely. She is still figuring out both outdoor potty routines and pee-pad training. She will eat certain dog cookies if theyre placed down for her to eat. Shes very much at the beginning of her training journey and will blossom with patience, consistency, and a gentle approach.Visit WiseAnimalRescue.org to fill out an adoption application.Adoption areas include: New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, Maine, Vermont, Virginia, Delaware, Maryland, the District of Columbia, Rhode Island, and New Hampshire.

She also loves spending time outdoorswhether its lounging in the yard, soaking up the fresh air, or taking leisurely walks. A home with access to a safe outdoor space or nearby parks would suit her perfectly. Overall, she would do best with someone who appreciates her sweet, gentle nature and enjoys quiet moments both inside and outside together.Personality: Mary Jane is a gentle, affectionate dog that would thrive in a calm, loving home where they can be part of the familys daily life. She adores being around people and will happily curl up for a good cuddle session at the end of the day.KIDS: YesDOGS: YesCATS: YesTraining: Mary Jane is settling in beautifully and adapting well to her new routine. She enjoys going into her crate on her own to rest or chew on her toys. Leash training is off to a great startshe doesnt pull and often walks nicely beside you, though shell continue to need guidance as she grows. House training is going very well! She reliably uses the pee pad if needed and is starting to signal when she needs to go outside, where she potties without any issue.WHY DID THEY COME TO WISE: Puppy mills overbreed to the point where they produce more dogs than they can sell. Dogs like Mary Jane were rejected for reasons ranging from birth defects, being born with the wrong color fur or eyes, or just simply because no one wanted to purchase them. When the dogs are not sold, the puppy mills destroy them, and it is legal to do so. WISE has recently partnered with a group to save these unwanted dogs - healthy, unhealthy, and/or with birth defects - who are destined to be killed for no reason.Visit WiseAnimalRescue.org to fill out an adoption application.Adoption areas include: New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, Maine, Vermont, Virginia, Delaware, Maryland, the District of Columbia, Rhode Island, and New Hampshire.
