Story
Offering Foster to Adopt: ☆Jack☆ Born October 17th, 2020 (he's 5 years old) Mixed breeds of Maltese, Shitzu, Schnauzer, Yorkie Weighs 14 lbs. Seen at Kenosha Lake Shore Veterinary Clinic Jack is housebroken, well potty trained, but is crate trained for when left home alone, or at least confined to one room. He is leashed every time when taken outside to go potty. He is not accustomed to a fenced in yard so he is not let off leash outside at all, but he would probably LOVE to have free reign in a fenced in yard. Jack loves the outdoors. Jack has been good with other dogs, he has NOT been around cats so I'm unsure of his temperament with cats. Jack has been raised around kids, but does get anxious around a lot of noise. He may benefit from being in a home with older children rather than young children. Jack likes car rides, attention, belly rubs, walks, naps, food, and exploring. He is a natural born scavenger and will eat strange things if he's able, so keep garbage, kleenex, and q-tips out of reach from this silly little furball! Jack does NOT like toy guns (nerf, or any such likeness), being touched while he is eating, getting his nails cut, too much loud noise (he barks at our vacuum). Jack does not like sleeping in his own bed, he prefers to sleep in your bed if you allow it, or possibly a couch or comfy chair. Located in Kenosha, Wisconsin. Adoption Application and Foster Agreement can be completed at www.tinypawssmalldogrescue.org if interested in Jack. Questions please contact Vicki at (262) 496-9324. Adoption Fee $550.

Story
Meet Violet. Violet is a 4 year old (5 in Oct.) Maltese. She spent her first 4 years being used for breeding, and was recently released to Tiny Paws to start her new life. My dogs are showing her the ropes, and she is adjusting to life indoors very well. She uses a potty pad, if needed, but has been very good about going outside with the other dogs. Only has 💩 accidents, overnight. But still on the pad (or at least mostly). The first night home, she stayed in one spot, near the door, on the cold, hard floor. The second night, I took her to bed with me, and now she stays there most of the time. She learned quickly, a soft bed is way better than the floor. 🥰🐾 I believe she would do best with adults only. She may be okay with older kids, but loud noises and quick movements make her nervous. She’s learning that hands are meant for pets, not pain, and she loves it when you scratch her head behind her ears. Violet will require a fenced yard, and someone who is patient enough to allow her to blossom. I believe she would do best with another dog in the home, to help teach her how to be a normal dog. (Not a mill dog) She’s come a long way in just a few days, and I think she will settle into her new life just fine. She’s very sweet. Located in Union Grove, WI with Heather nanashome71@gmail.com.
