For inquiries email kathy@compactcaninerescue.org Fee: $600 Location: Rehoboth Beach, Delaware Update, 9/25/26: Blossom has been spayed and is ready for her forever home! She is full of puppy energy! Loves to play with humans and toys! Take this sweet little girl into your home today! Foster mom update 9/13/26: What a difference a week makes! Blossom is doing fabulous with her housetraining! She has not had an accident in a week! She is learning to walk on a leash and loves to take long walks. She plays with toys ... loves a squeaky toy or a small ball to chase. She enjoys chewing on a bully stick and wrestling with her foster sister. This little blossom is a gem! Meet Blossom. We believe she is around 2 years old, weighs about 9 pounds and is a Shih Tzu/Maltese mix. She came to us from a hoarding situation and is learning how to be pampered. Her first haircut was quite the transformation. Blossom is a bit skittish and loves having another dog around. If she cannot find her foster sister, she gets a bit anxious. She sleeps quietly through the night in her crate, snuggled up with her foster sister. A home with another dog is strongly preferred. She is starting to discover that people and toys are fun. She is working on her leash skills and potty manners. A fenced yard is a plus. A training/manners class is required and must be completed within 6 months to finalize the adoption. She will be scheduled to be spayed soon. Once healed she will be ready for adoption. Apply now! Please follow us on social media for the most up to date photos and information.

Story
For inquiries email va2byoung@aol.com Fee: $900 Location: Sunset Beach, NC Lilah is approximately 5 months old according to the veterinarian and weighs 5 lbs. She has been described as a terrier mix or even a rainbow Yorkie mix with her black and white coloring. She even has a white powder puff at the end of her tail. Right now, she is a bit skittish with people, however, she likes other small dogs. So much so, that she sneaks into her foster brother's bed with him. Her foster brother is teaching her how to walk on a leash as she follows him out to the yard. With his help, she is now mostly potty trained. She eats well twice a day, is starting to play with toys and likes her quiet naps. She needs some time to come out of her shell. She will be spayed on September 28 -- then will be ready for her forever home. Lilah enjoys playing with squeaky toys and her foster brother. Another dog in the home may make her happy! A training/manners class is required and must be completed within 6 months to finalize the adoption. Please follow us on social media for the most up to date photos and information.

Story
For inquiries email ashley@compactcaninerescue.org Fee: $600 Location: Montpelier, VA Update 9/30/2026: Sally continues to wait for her forever family. She deserves a home with lots of snuggles! Contact her foster family if you are interested in making her dreams come true! Meet Sally! She is a sweet, little 7 year old, 9 pound Maltese. She comes to us from a puppy mill in Pennsylvania. She is very new in rescue but is warming up and enjoying life as a pet not property. Her tail wags all the time and she is very interested in her new surroundings. She will need a calm, patient home to allow her to adjust to pet life. A fenced yard is not required but will be an asset to her. She has never walked on leash. She has been a money maker for 7 years. She deserves a slow approach from a family who will not rush her and give her an opportunity to learn and grow. She is very sweet and will definitely make a wonderful pet in time. She just needs time. Sally is temporarily staying in Norfolk with a foster near the Snip Squad, our new and fabulous low cost clinic. This clinic allows us to take in dogs from puppy mills who have had no care and typically need many teeth extracted. Without their help, the rescue could not afford to help dogs like Sally. While the Snip Squad does give a wonderful discount her vetting to get to Virginia plus the cost of the dental and spay will total more than $1500. Sally will be spayed and have a dental performed on Monday, June 22nd then move to her foster home when she is ready. After she recovers, she will be ready for her new life with her new family. Apply now. She is a gem you don't want to miss! Want to help cover the cost of her dental and spay surgery? Donate using one of the links below...any amount helps and is greatly appreciated!

Story
Finn is 5 year old maltese mix that is searching for his forever family. Finn would do best with someone who is home more often than they are not and committed to providing structure to his day to day. Finn is recommended as no shared walls in his future home as he can be very vocal when left alone. Due to some of Finns history and behavior we are recommending an adult only home or children 16 and up. We are asking at this time Finn be the only canine in the home. It will be important for Finn`s future family to follow up with their veterinarian to consistently evaluate the efficacy of his long term behavioral medications. While in foster Finn enjoyed a calm quieter home where he was the center of attention! His fosters stated he is active and enjoys walks and playing in the yard. If you would like to meet this friendly and outgoing fella please speak with our kennel team who will be happy to assist.
