To apply to adopt this dog now, complete our adoption application  HERE To see our upcoming events where you can meet some of our dogs, please see  HERE Age: 2 months (as of 04/07/24) Weight: 5 - 7 lbs (as of 04/18/24)   This dog has been spayed/neutered, is up to date on shots, on heartworm preventative and is microchipped.   Meet the resilient trio: Taco, Gordita & Enchilada – three courageous souls who overcame adversity to find their way into loving homes. Their journey began when fate intervened through the caring heart of a local mail carrier who is also a foster for our loving rescue in Arkansas. This compassionate individual had developed a special bond with their mother, a loyal canine who roamed the neighborhood with a wagging tail and a gentle spirit. When days passed without her familiar presence, concern grew. Upon inquiry, it was revealed that tragedy had struck; their beloved mom had met with an untimely demise, leaving behind her precious pups. Refusing to let these innocent Pups face the world alone, the mail carrier sprang into action. With swift determination, she brought Taco, Gordita, & Enchilada into her home, becoming their foster guardian. Amidst cuddles, warmth, and nourishment, she provided the love and care they desperately needed in their vulnerable state. Simultaneously, she reached out to animal control, hoping to locate their mother. Heartbreakingly, the news confirmed her worst fears – their dear mom had been tragically struck by a passing vehicle three days prior. Yet, amidst the sorrow, a silver lining emerged; Taco, Gordita, & Enchilada were safe, snug in the embrace of their foster home. Under the watchful eye of their devoted guardian, the pups flourished. Each day brought new milestones – from tentative steps to playful barks, they grew stronger and more confident. Soon, it was time for their next chapter; a trip to the veterinarian ensured they were healthy and ready to embark on their journey to find forever families. Now, Taco, Gordita, & Enchilada carry the resilience of their journey in their wagging tails and bright eyes. With their infectious spirit and unwavering courage, they remind us of the power of love and the strength found in community. Rescued from the brink of uncertainty, these pups serve as a beacon of hope and inspiration, proving that even in life's darkest moments, light can shine through.   An adoption donation is required for each adoption; please see  HERE  for more information about this. To apply for this dog, fill out an adoption application on our website: www.sosarl.org/aa/   **Additional info you should know - For most of our dogs, we are only guessing at predominant breed or breed mix. We get to know each of our dogs as an individual and do our best to describe and place them based on personality not breed label. Some dogs may not yet be in New England, nor ready for immediate adoption. There may be additional vetting, quarantine, waiting periods and/or fees depending upon your state of residence. If you have questions or concerns on any of this, you can discuss this with your Adoption Counselor. April 25, 2024, 11:21 pm
