Story
~~Although we do our very best to make sure your new pup is in tiptop health before adoption, things could drastically change a month later.  Since we don’t have a long health history of your adopted dog, we can only treat the pet for whatever symptoms present during the initial exam and follow up exams.~ Health: He has a grade 5/6 Heart Murmur and must take medication daily for the entirety of his life.  ***** No obvious health issues found during vet exam ***** Temperament:  Meet Mister, a delightful and affectionate fellow bursting with energy! He adores spending time with us, whether we're lounging in front of the TV or tending to the yard. Mister is fully house-trained (please keep in mind this is not guaranteed) and snoozes peacefully through the night by our side. He revels in playing with toys and frolicking outdoors on sunny days. Learning to walk on a leash is a new adventure for him, and he eagerly embraces the opportunity to explore. Though he can be a bit enthusiastic and pull on the leash, his love for treats makes him a quick learner. With a bit of time and patience, he'll master the art of walking on a leash with finesse. Mister is fantastic with children and sports a beautiful coat. While he requires medication for a heart murmur twice a day, he takes it without any fuss and has had no issues so far. He socializes well with other dogs, though he may display a hint of jealousy if attention is divided. We're actively addressing this behavior with him. Overall, Mister is a spirited and lively companion who relishes belly rubs and playtime with his beloved toys.  -- Where did he come from: Abandoned to a boarding facility.  Adoption: ***** $250.00 ***** Weight: 9.9 lbs. Approximate age: 6/13/2016 ADOPTION APPLICATION: http://www.recycledpoms.org/application -- Email info@recycledpomeranians.com to request a printable application. --   ------Please remember our group is made of only volunteers all of whom have full time jobs, foster fur-kids, and families of their own, so please be patient.-------- September 14, 2024, 10:33 am

Story
Baxter is a little bundle of joy! He is house and crate trained. He is one happy boy, less than 2 years old and loves playing with his roomie and toys. Baxter has mastered basic commands - sit, come and no and constantly strives to please you. He can  be shy at first, but becomes your best friend in no time. All he is missing is a home of his own!  ##2154913##

Story
After only 4 days as a foster, he is playing with our little terrier, bursting through the doggy doors, following the pack to join the front door welcoming committee, jumping way up onto my bed in the morning to wear out his tail wagging, washing my face with a tiny tongue despite my screams, most content when curled up near a person at all times, cuddling with my hubs and sometimes the other dogs, crating at night without complaining and wakes dry in the early morning. His batteries are fully charged in the morning but by evening they run low and he goes limp; the perfect balance. He is about 1 ½ - 2 years old and seems to be a Malti-Shih with smooth, wavy hair of a Maltese, but a low-long body, and face and coloring, of a perfect Shih Tzu, without one face wrinkle. All of this is in a tiny, trim 7 ½ pound body. Could be total Shih. He continues to improve on his potty training, is quiet unless he is welcoming us home, and has so far eaten everything we put in front of him. Except the pineapple. He’s not hyperactive. He’s just energized but very cooperative with the general needs of behavior. He is a complete package, a little black Mini Cooper, and finds unabashed joy in being alive. All this, after only 4 days! After 2 weeks: We’re working hard on that potty training. Getting his poop timing down, walking frequently, picking it up fast and pouring praise all over him. Great alarm dog but not too barky. He’s fussy about wet grass but will wear tiny socks on hot pavement or wet grass without one complaint. A wonderful work in progress.

Story
When a local shelter sent us a picture of Sailor, our hearts broke for this little guy. He was matted to the skin, his nails were long and curled and he had bugs living in his matted hair. His foster mom spent hours shaving him to make him more comfortable and also cut his overgrown nails. He is now fully vetted and ready to find his forever home! His foster mom can’t say enough good things about this sweet little guy. Sailor sleeps through the night and is fully potty trained, letting you know when he needs to go out. If you work from home, Sailor would be the perfect companion, content to be your snuggly, though slightly unproductive, assistant. He would love nothing more than to curl up with you on the couch or be held close. Sailor is a 10 year old, 8 pound, Maltese mix.  If you are interested in adopting, please submit an application at www.rescuerowinc.org  *Please check your junk email folder if you do not receive a response from a Rescue Row member within 3 business days. *You must live within an hour of the DFW Metroplex because we do trial adoptions and require a homecheck *Our adoption fees are as follows paid by cash, a check made out to Rescue Row, Venmo: @Rescue-Row or at Zelle: info@rescuerowinc.org Dogs 12 weeks-6 months old: $300 adoption fee Dogs 7 months and older: $275 adoption fee Rescue Row is a 501(c)3 (non-profit) all volunteer dog rescue organization serving the DFW Metroplex. We are dedicated to rescuing dogs in shelters, dogs in abusive or neglectful situations, and dogs surrendered by their owners because of difficult circumstances. We place dogs in loving, responsible, committed permanent homes, following a comprehensive adoption process, which includes taking considerable care in finding good matches and educating prospective adopters about the responsibilities and costs of bringing a dog into their homes and lives. Dogs in our care are spayed or neutered, microchipped, receive all appropriate veterinary care and treatment, and placed in nurturing foster homes while they await placement in their permanent homes. We assist dogs in distress without regard to age, breed or ease of placement. Dogs in the greatest need take priority. Finally, we strive to work with shelters and other rescue and humane organizations to develop a network of supporters and volunteers in order to create a better world for homeless dogs. ##2136365##

Story
Nigel is being fostered in PA. Nigel is a sweet little boy! He loves playing(chewing) toys. 😂 He loves being outside and especially loves walks! He loves to snuggle next to you on the sofa. He is dog and cat friendly. He likes to chase my cats, but he is actually playing with them. He gets very excited when it's time to eat and will stand up on his hind legs and beg. He is very active for 10 years old. He does have impaired vision but gets around very well. Nigel is on drops for dry eye and may need sedation before grooming. He will have a dental prior to adoption. BDRA has voted against the use of electrical fencing effective immediately.
