I'm little Bit! I'm estimated to be 7-8 years old. I am a female Maltese! I'm roughly 8lbs! I'm tiny and spunky! I can also carry a convo with you!  I am spayed and up to date on vaccines.  I come from a rough past, and would need someone who understands that and is willing to go at my pace. I am not house broken, but I will go outside if taken out. I sometimes piddle when I get picked up, I don't mean to, it just happens.  I live with other foster pals and cat siblings and I do great with them all.  I enjoy spending my time being playful, talkative and taking naps. I'm catching up on all the good stuff I missed out on in my old life. This new life is great.  I'm a pretty chill pup!  I am not a fan of harness or leashes, I get a little freaked out with them and try to hide. Im sure over time that might change but for now, I'm okay with just following and being carried! Makes me feel like a princess. If I caught your attention, hop on over to : Tiny Paws Small Dog Rescue website. https://www.tinypawssmalldogrescue.org/ And submit an application.   Adoption fee is required. Adoption fee is $450. If you have any questions or concerns my foster mom can be reached at 414-307-3785. She can also be reached through email at : Jensensarah2598@gmail.com. I am being fostered in Milwaukee, WI.

Hello. I'm Mama's! I'm estimated to be 7-8years old. I am a female Maltese. I am currently not spayed! So that will need to be done in the future. I'm new to this home life. I came from a rough situation. I'm learning what a good loving home means. So far it's pretty cool. I get pets, treats, food, soft blankets and lots of praises. I enjoy it all. Im a bit shy however due to my past, so I would need someone to be understanding of that and go at my pace. I am not yet potty trained. I am learning! I do have a few accidents in home. But I do also go out when shown that potty is outside. The outside is fun too, I enjoy adventuring and hanging out with my friends and foster parents in the back yard. I run around and chase my friends. I enjoy spending time inside catching up on naps, pets and all those good treats! Sometimes I'll take a toy or two into my kennel and chew on it. I enjoy a good bone! If interested please submit an application into Tiny Paws Small Dog Rescue. Adoption fee if $450 is required. I am located in Milwaukee, WI with my foster Sarah jensensarah2598@gmail.com

Meet Galaxy (aka phoebe) a 6 year old Maltese. She is sporting her new summer hairdo along with her pretty pink onesie. Phoebe is a retired puppy mill breeder and is learning how to trust humans. She is doing great at housebreaking but will need patients and understanding. She prefers to lay in her open crate in a play yard but will come out and greet you. She’s a sweet little dog that will need somebody with patience and lots of love. She gets along well with dogs but prefers the calmer smaller dogs. Big excited dogs scare her a little bit. Running outside and laying in the sun is her favorite acivity. She would do better in a more quiet home with older children since she is tiny (only 8 lbs). We have introduced her to a harness and leash but she will need time and patients. She really does well following you outside in a fenced in yard. Galaxy will come with a certificate of health, UTD on vaccines and spayed. Colleen Dilone colleen.dilone3904@gmail.com is fostering her in McHenry if you would like to fill out an application go to https://www.tinypawssmalldogrescue.org/ and fill out an application for Galaxy. Her adoption fee is $450. Message if you want more information or once you have submitted an application.

Meet Moe! He's a 3-year-old Maltese/Terrier mix who is looking for a new home due to very unfortunate circumstances. His previous owner has a terminal illness. Since Moe's world was recently turned upside down, he is afraid and timid at first but has warmed up tremendously after a good grooming and some treats. Moe is as sweet as can be, house-trained, walks great on a leash, and even knows some commands. He gets along well with other dogs but would also be happy as an only dog because he loves all the attention he can get. Moe has never been around children and lived in a quiet household. He is a cute, little snuggle bug and will make a fantastic companion.Apply to adopt him: www.nbstr.org

I am in Yorkville Il awaiting my forever family******* Hi Everyone, My name is Thunder Bird, and I would like to add some wags to your tail. I am a precious 13-week-old Mali-Shi (Shih Tzu/Maltese) baby who is looking for my forever people!! True to the adorable-sounding name, Mal-Shi's are cute, friendly and outgoing dogs that are one of the most popular hybrid dogs. They are highly trainable, love people of all ages and make great companions. They are also known as a Multi-zu, and the Malti- Tzu. Malt-Shi dogs are small in stature, but they make up for it with big hearts. They are loyal, loving to a fault, and capture the hearts of anyone they lay their eyes on. These dogs captured the hearts of the world around the 2000s when the designer breed became truly popular. I am going to make an excellent addition to a loving family!! I am adorable, smart, loving and sweet as sweet can be. I have a great temperament!! Investing your time and love into me will be so worth it!! I am a breeder release. I am good with children and other animals.

What more could a new family ask for? Love and Kisses, Thunder Bird

About Me: Name: Amelia and Bedelia Breed (or best guess): Bichon Mix Approximate Age: 6 yr Gender: Female Approximate Weight:  Adoption Fee: $800 for the pair Requirements: Fenced yard, patient adopter Why In Rescue: surrendered breeding dogs Profile:  Amelia and Bedelia are best friends who love to cuddle and groom each other.  They came to us with a number of other dogs from the same facility.  Amelia had a scratched eye that has now healed and is all fine now.  Bedelia had a severe head tilt, which we discovered was due to a bad ear infection.  After weeks of treatment, she is much better and ready to be adopted.  Like most retired breeding dogs, these girls are shy and are now learning to trust people.  They haven't worked on leash walking yet, but we either pick them up to take them out to the fenced area, or allow them to follow us out.  Another small social dog in the home may help the girls figure out housetraining faster, but we won't require another dog in the home because they have each other.  Please review the information on puppy mill dogs before applying to adopt Amelia and Bedelia, as they will require a person with extra patience to allow them to flourish in their new home. Amelia and Bedelia came from a commercial breeder/puppy farmer who was no longer going to use them for breeding.  Dogs from commercial breeders are generally undersocialized (often very scared/shy/skittish) and probably never lived in a house.  They will need to learn things like how to walk on a leash, go up stairs, and what things like a television are.  They need a patient adopter who will give them the time they need to adjust and to learn to trust people.  Every baby step forward needs to be celebrated, and the dog needs to be accepted for who they are at each step.  Some dogs can adjust quickly and learn how to be a loved pet pretty easily.  Others can take a long time to even be comfortable with things like walking through the house and being in the same room as a person.  No matter how far and how fast the breeder dogs progress, they are wonderful dogs and deserve a great home after their life on the puppy farm.  A fence or at least a secure fenced in potty area is highly recommended for the dog's safety, and may be required for some dogs.  Another small dog in the house can also help many former breeders adjust faster to life in a home, and also may be required in some cases.  We do put the needs of the dog's first, so it is nothing personal if we determine a particular dog isn't suitable for your specific home and living situation. If considering adopting a former breeding dog, the following article is good to read to help you understand the special needs these dogs may have.  http://nowisconsinpuppymills.com/mill-survivors.html If interested in adoption, the first step is filling out the pre-adoption application at http://www.bichonrescues.com/pre-adoption-form-dog  If link isn't clickable, please copy/paste or visit http://www.bichonrescues.com.  Please note, filling out inquiry forms on Petfinder or Adoptapet and/or their application forms does not constitute an application for one of our dogs.  Priority in responding to inquires and applications is always to the applications filled out on our website, time constraints limit the number of other inquires we can reply to. We do our best to evaluate the dogs while they are with us, but they sometimes act different in the shelter environment than they do in a home.  Many times we do not know the actual breed/mix or age of the dog, in that case we use our best guess as to breed and age.   We are located in Mukwonago, WI.  Adopters must come to us, we do not ship our dogs.  Please do not apply for a dog until you are ready to adopt.  Once an application is approved you will be notified by email to make an appointment to meet the dog.  All dogs are seen by appointment only. The adoption fee through Bichon and Little Buddies Rescue is $200 - $550 depending on the age of the dog, which includes Wi State Sales Tax.  Included in this fee is your new companion who will be spayed/neutered, have a current Certificate of Veterinary Inspection (as required by state law), current on age appropriate vaccinations, heartworm tested (if old enough) and started on preventative, microchipped, and given a general wormer.  Other medical needs will also have been taken care of, such as dentals and treating ear infections.  To assist you and your new pet in adjusting to life together, you may chose to take an 8 week age appropriate obedience training course at For Pet's Sake Dog Training in Mukwonago, WI for $75 (up to $230 value).  You may opt to take Puppy Kindergarten, Adult Beginners, or Small Dogs Big Hearts.  You must register for the class within 90 days of adoption for the reduced fee.  For more information on the classes visit www.forpetssake.cc  More important information: ***We are a Wisconsin based rescue and do not ship our pets.  If you are considering adoption you must be willing to drive to meet and adopt the pet, as well as bring the pet back to us if the adoption doesn't work.  We adopt primarily in WI and IL, but will consider applicants in MN, IA, and MI.*** ***Please do not set up an appointment to meet the animals until you are ready to take your pet home.  If the meeting results in a match, you can often take the dog/cat home the same day or within a couple days if the medical care hasn't been completed.  We are not able to hold pets for adopters beyond this time.  Thanks for understanding.*** ***While we hope all of our adoptions lead to permanent homes for the animals we place, sometimes things just don't work out.  We do have a 30 day trial period.  For the first 30 days, if you or Bichon and Little Buddies decide that the adoption isn't a good match for either the humans or the pet, the adoption fee will be refunded minus $75 within 30 days of the return of the dog.  Bichon and Little Buddies also requires adopters to return the pet to us at any time that they are unable or unwilling to care for the animal anymore.*** ***We do not show dogs without an appointment.  The first step in adoption is filling out the pre-adoption application at http://www.bichonrescues.com/pre-adoption-form-dog  Please do not call/email until AFTER you have filled out an application.*** Bichon and Little Buddies is a State Licensed Rescue # 268555-DS April 27, 2024, 2:56 pm

About Me: Name: Ramona Quimby Breed (or best guess): Bichon (or mix) Approximate Age: 6-7 years Gender: Female Approximate Weight: 14 lb Adoption Fee: $450 Requirements: Patient adopter, fenced yard, another dog  Why In Rescue: Breeder Surrender Profile:  Ramona Quimby came with a number of her friends from a breeder that was going to stop using them for breeding (and hopefully out of breeding completely).  Ramona is shy/timid, but getting more comfortable to people and will come up to get a treat especially through the kennel fence.  She is still nervous about being picked up.  At the shelter she will follow the caretaker to go outside.  She does not walk on a leash yet, so will need a securely fenced yard so she can safely go outside.  Ramona NEEDS another small dog in the home to be comfortable.  If she doesn't have a kennel mate at the shelter she becomes very nervous and upset.  She could be adopted with her friend Judy Moody, or alone if there is another dog in the home.  Please read the information about puppy mill survivors before you apply to adopt Ramona, as we want the adoption to be a success for her as well as her adopter.  We don't know if she ever lived in a house, so will likely need work with housetraining.
