Story
SANDY**2-4 YEAR OLD FEMALE**MALTESE/BICHON MIX**12 POUNDS** Sandy is being fostered in the Richmond, VA area. If you are interested in Sandy, please go to the www.momsva.org website and complete an application. Sandy is a 2-4 year old Maltese/bichon mix. She came to us from a county shelter after she was surrender by her owner, along with Oliver who we believe is her baby. Sandy weighs 12 lbs so the perfect size to take everywhere with you. She considered herself perfectly lap sized and is happy curled up after a day of playing or exploring the neighborhood on walks with her favorite person. Sandy has an affectionate spirit and was described by the Daycamp staff as being confident and comfortable with her play group and the staff. Unfortunately Sandy is not house trained but she does seem familiar with puppy pads. Her foster Mom is working with her but she will need structure and someone patient with her to continue this training. Sandy and Oliver’s sweet personalities and mother/son bond make them an unforgettable pair but they can be adopted separately. If you think you're a match for Sandy or the Sandy/Oliver pair, please go to www.momsva.org and complete an application.

Story
We have the sweetest little small-breed puppies available for adoption through our rescue, and we want to be completely transparent about what these babies need. Willie is one of these puppies. He is about 11 weeks old and 7 pounds. Because they are so small and delicate, homes with young children are not a good match. These tiny pups can be easily injured by rough play or accidental bumps. Even jumping down from a chair or couch can cause them to break a leg. We do think an active home with older children with experience with small dogs would be fine. These puppies do love to play, so another small, young, playful dog would be best. Please also keep their long lifespan in mind — these little ones often live 16–18 years. We’re looking for forever families who are ready for that long-term commitment. Our biggest goal is to place them once and only once. We never want them to be rehomed. These puppies were found on the side of a freeway so we are just guessing on the breed. They look like they are a Maltese mix. If you have a home where someone is home most of the day, experience with small breeds, another small dog in the home and are prepared for nearly two decades of love, we’d love to hear from you. These precious babies deserve the safest, most stable homes possible. Thank you for understanding and helping us protect them. For an application go to www.homesfurhounds.org They are located in Williamsburg, Va.
