Story
This friend has just arrived to us on transport from a high-intake shelter partner! When our friends are new to us, we are often unsure of their full background. Our staff will spend some time getting to know them and update their bio with more information as we learn. They are pending interactions with animals until they have been cleared by our vet. Please note that we often are unsure of house, crate, car, and leash training status upon arrival. If you are interested in adopting this dog, please submit an adoption questionnaire! Our adoption process is on a first-come, best-match basis and we are not able to hold animals. If you are interested in this specific dog but it ends up not being the best fit upon meeting, our adoption counselors will work with you to help find a match! All household members, including children and other dogs, must come along for the meeting to make sure it's a good fit. If a match is made, we encourage same-day adoptions! Our adoption fees include the animals' spay/neuter, microchip, age-appropriate vaccinations and preventatives, fecal testing, heartworm testing, and a small bag of food to get you started.

Story
Frank (short for Franco) is an 8-year-old pug&;shih tzu mix with a big personality and an even bigger heart. He’s a sweet, loyal dog who loves to lounge nearby, go for short walks, and just be with his person. Frank has been a beloved part of our family, and this is a very difficult decision. We ar looking for the right home where he can continue to thrive.Frank has diabetes, which requires daily insulin injections and a special diet. He is also partially blind due to his condition, but henavigates familiar spaces well and adapts quickly. Because of his medical needs, he can be slightly food-aggressive, so he would do best in a calm home with no other dogs and either a single adult or a family with older, dog-savvy children. Despite his quirks, Frank has a gentle soul and gets along well with cats. He is house-trained, loves companionship, and still enjoys short bursts of playfulness. His favorite things include napping in a sunny spot, following you from room to room.

Story
Meet Pickle! This sweet little senior girl found herself at the Orphanage as a stray, like so many others do. Sadly her owners never came for her, but we are ready to find her a new family that will love her like she deserves. Pickle is a very easy going girl and should be happy in basically any home. She should do fine in a household with or without other pets and we don`t think she would mind some kids to play with either. She is an all around Good Girl and will make someone a very nice little friend. Come by the VAO soon and ask to meet Pickle!

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Hey there!! Kiwi here and I am looking for a family that is looking to have a good time!! I am a silly fun loving crazy kinda girl who needs a patient family and a fur brother or sister. I am fully vetted, working on things like potty training and leash walking. Now I came from a back yard breeder and was owner surrendered due to no fault of mine other than lousy humans not giving me a chance. UGH!! I am shy, timid and scared because of you two leggers, but four leggers are amazing friends. So what I need is a couple of dedicated, caring and compassionate two leggers who will give me unconditional love, lots of play time, patience and direction. I am good at finding the best sticks and rocks in the yard to chew and protect you from and I love toys! Oh and yeah a four legged sibling to teach me confidence and other things we dogs need to know. SO one more thing about me is when I am allowed on my terms to accept you and I cover you with kisses, sometimes I get carried away and nibble with my teeth. I can't help it, but these folks at AMMF are saying I can't be with kids because of this. Less attention and love I have to share with two leggers I guess! Anyway if you think we are compatible, please go to www.allmuttsmatter.org and apply for me, KIWI!!!Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.April 23, 2025, 12:38 pm

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Hello all my name is Squiggy!! I am a squiggly wiggly kinda of boy who is so full of fun!! I am fully vetted and am working on my house training. If I can get out frequently I do well and I will go potty on a leash. I am a little shy when I first meet people and will bark, but a little patience and some treats and I am a complete love bug. I met a new friend a few weeks ago and we went for a car trip and I slept like a baby on her lap. I loved sleeping under a blanket with her holding me like a baby. She could hold me any way she wanted and I was in complete heaven. I am fully vetted including being neutered. I was a little thin when I came into rescue, but I have filled out nicely and I am ready for my very own forever family. I play well with others, and sometimes I get so excited that I play nip and talk a lot. I would do best in a home without young kids only because I am a ball of energy. Please go to www.allmuttsmatter.org to apply for me Squiggy!!!Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.October 28, 2024, 5:42 pm
