Story

Meet Nilla Bean a 5 year old Papillon and Chihuahua mix, who is a happy story of transformation. While she still has spicy energy and excitement about life as a dog, she is far from the resource guarding pup she was 2 months ago. She has learned how to play with toys to amuse herself, and incorporate the zoomies alone or with an agreeable dog to expel excess energy. She also tolerates timeouts in the crate when she gets overwhelmed. She loves to explore the fenced in yard and shows no signs of wanting to escape. She occasionally potties in the house but mostly she does her business outside. She would benefit from walks or dog park visits (after she has bonded with her human). She loves snuggles and massages and sleeps happily through the night with her humans. She settled well in the car the few times she’s been a passenger. She’s a vigilant pup, noticing every movement or sound, and does bark at new noises or people. For new people visiting, I have her on leash or in the crate until they are in and settled so she can sniff and check things out without the stress of arrival greetings and movement. She is more comfortable every week with new experiences. She responds to calm instructions, such as ‘you’re ok’, or ‘come here’ or ‘no bark’ etc. She is treat and food motivated and in general is learning to trust people and a loving home. I’m not sure how she would do with kids or cats, but again if they take it slow, I think she will do fine. A playful confident resident dog would be great for her, although I think with enough socialization she would also do well as an only dog. She’s just waiting and improving her doggy skills for her forever family.

Story

Hi, My name is Benny...Ben...Ben...Benny, I'm as fast as a flying squirrel and I can fly (well jump) like one too!!! I also love to make a nest and curl up in your lap and take a nap. I also gather up toys and take them to my little tree. Foster momma says it is a kennel. So, I guess that means I am kennel trained, whatever that means. I go in there when it is time to eat or foster momma leaves. I am potty trained. I learned I needed to go outside and do my business from my foster siblings. I love my foster siblings. We play chase, we wrestle, and we take turns with toys. I like to take all of them out of the basket to find the perfect toy! I am also a little scavenger if there is paper, kleenex, or anything I can tear up, consider it done!!! I would love to have a family that is as active as I am. I am a busy body. Now, about my back story. I was found in a grocery store parking lot. The nice ladies tried to find my family, but were unable. They reached out to God's Dogs and asked them if I could join their family and here I am. That night I met my foster momma, grandmomma, and siblings. I DO NOT LIKE HATS!!! Foster momma had one on and I did not want to go anywhere near her. So, if you think you can handle a little squirrel, adopt me. I am your guy!!! Local adoption fee is $400 out of state adoption fee with transport and fuel surcharge is $650

Story

History: Boots is a handsome young papillon who was surrendered by a commercial breeding program with some health concerns that we learned off upon arriving to rescue. The ultrasound confirmed that Boots has a congenital heart condition called a patent ductus arteriosus, or PDA. This is an abnormal blood vessel that connects two major arteries leaving the heart, the aorta and the pulmonary artery. This vessel is normal and necessary for a puppy in the womb, but it is supposed to seal off and close within a few days of birth. In Boot's case, this vessel remained open, or "patent." This is causing an abnormal amount of blood to be shunted from his body's circulation back into the circulation of his lungs. This abnormal blood flow is causing some extra work for the left side of his heart; a condition we call volume overload. Over a long period, this strain can cause the heart to enlarge and eventually fail, leading to fluid buildup in the lungs, which is known as congestive heart failure. Thankfully, Boot's PDA appears to be on the smaller size and the impact on his heart is currently mild, his left heart is only borderline enlarged. He is not in or near congestive heart failure at this time. While it is rare, another potential long-term risk is that the high blood flow could damage the lungs, leading to a reversal of blood flow through the PDA, which is a very serious complication. Because of these risks, the standard recommendation for any PDA is to close it. The procedure to fix a PDA is typically minimally invasive and has a very high success rate. A small incision is made in his inner thigh to access the femoral artery. Using a specialized live x-ray called fluoroscopy for guidance, a catheter is passed through the artery up to the PDA and deploy a special device called an occluder. This device stays in the vessel permanently and blocks the abnormal blood flow. Once the PDA is successfully closed, the dogs is considered cured and can go on to potentially live a normal, full lifespan. The outcomes for PDA closure are generally much more predictable and successful than for other procedures, though like anything, success rates are not 100%. But they are very high. The main potential for Boots is his size. At 8.5 pounds, he is just above the general lower weight limit for the standard devices and delivery systems that are available. He will need to have the procedure completed at U of M veterinary center by board certified cardiologists. At this time, we are waiting for a month or two for him to potentially grow a little more. The risk of his condition significantly worsening or reversing in the next few months is low, though not zero. A Note from the Foster: Hello! Miy name is Boots but I prefer Bootsie-Boooooo. I was born on Valentines Day and I am a love bug. I am nine months old and weigh 8.8 lbs and I am here to entertain you with my dancing, my zoomies, tail chasing especially when I catch it, and my sock stealing – I love Bombas. I really like treats and have learned to take them nicely. The nicer I am the more I get! I currently live with a 45 lb pittie and a 20 lb miniature poodle and we all get along and chase each other around the house. I play tug of rope with the big one and I always win! I am shy around new people (especially men – they are loud) till I understand they are nice and some even give me treats. I love going for walks, although my leash manners are progressing. I want to smell every leaf and always have to catch the leaf that opposite where I am walking. AND most of all I love running in my friends fenced in yard. I do not like kennels (I am told I protest too much) but I sleep nicely with my humans and love to curl up next to them whenever I can, sit in a lap or follow them from room to room. When we go new places, I ride in a bag over my human’s shoulder and peek my head out till I am comfortable. Sometimes when I am playing my tongue sticks out and I am told I am soooo cute. I really am working at potty training. My human takes me outside frequently and most of the time I get a head rub and treat when I do “potty”. At night I wear a bellyband and sometimes during the day if we know we won’t get out timely.I have not figured out how to let people know I need to go out.

Story

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Hi, I’m Snoopy You’d never guess it, but I started my journey a little rough. My sister-from-another-mister, Lucy Van Pelt, and I were found emaciated and abandoned in a private, fenced area. Despite this, I looove people. I want to wear foster mom. I'm the cuddliest dog ever. Extra strength velcro. Mom says the family that adopts me is the luckiest ever! She says I'll go so fast! I mean, I'd love to do agility training! Oh, that's not what she meant, exactly. But, still. My specialities include: Throwing myself dramatically backwards, and hoping you catch me in time and give me belly rubs. Melting straight into your body like warm butter. Begging (very politely) to be picked up... and carried. Cuddling - Truly my #1 passion Being quiet as a mouse… unless I’m in a kennel (and honestly, I don’t need one!) My ideal family would let me sleep in bed with them at night. If that's a non-negotiable, I hope you like screaming and heavy metal music. Meaning, we will negotiate, I will win. A family that has other dogs, kids and cats would be great. I’m potty trained on a schedule, suuuuper sweet, and smart! Total. Package. Love, Snoopy Snoopy is from a local impound.
