Good with kids, Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
I got Maka from a rescue 11 years ago as a tiny puppy who fit in my hand as a support animal for my daughter (who is now out of college and working) along with his brother, P'Nut. They are well-behaved, used to being bathed, clipped, walked, and spoiled by me. He is good in the car and at the kennel. He does not like fireworks. He eats whatever I feed him once a day but is also quite treat motivated. In a perfect world, someone wonderful would be able to take both Maka and his brother P'Nut. All shots and vaccinations are up to date and just took him to the vet for an excellent health report.

Story
LAYLA – Rat Terrier Mix • Spayed Female • 2 Years Old • 25 lbs Layla is a calm, gentle, and loving girl with a quiet, easygoing personality. She rarely barks, is well-behaved when left home alone, and does not become anxious or destructive. She enjoys walks, relaxing strolls in the park, and spending time with her people. Layla gets along well with other dogs and would make an ideal companion for someone looking for a loyal and peaceful best friend. Layla once had a loving home where she was cared for and cherished. Unfortunately, life circumstances changed, and her owner was forced to leave her alone for long periods of time while working. Wanting a better life for Layla, her owner made the difficult and selfless decision to ask for help finding her a forever home where she would never have to experience loneliness again. Layla is ready to share her sweet nature and loving heart with a family who will give her the companionship and security she deserves. If you can offer LAYLA the loving home she deserves, please contact Reyna: miracledogrescue@gmail.com 323-383-8883

Story
MILLIE is a lovely adult/senior, 8 pounds, girl Rat Terrier whose senior human dad passed away, leaving Millie and her four little companions, Cookie, Shorty, Poopsy, and Missy, without their dad. They all get along really well, are house trained, and also know to use pads to do their business indoors, and at night, and when it's raining or very cold out. They are not barkers, only barking to warn that someone is at or near the front door, and then they settle down again. They are great with cats because their housemates have been six (6) cats! If shown a lot of affection and understanding when welcomed into their new homes, we are sure these lovely kiddos will do well in a loving new home even if they don’t stay together. IMPORTANT NOTE: Recently the number of deaths from hungry coyote attacks has greatly increased. Coyotes can climb 10 foot fences with a small to medium sized dog in their jaws. This happens in broad daylight in the middle of the day, and on trails while hiking with your dog on a leash, it is truly unbelievable, and we have frightening first-hand accounts. We are listing these lovely pups to help their current foster/rescue in finding them wonderful new homes. All four girl pups are spayed, Shorty is neutered, and all of them current on vaccines. To learn more about Millie (Cookie, Shorty, Poopsy, and Missy), please contact us at: theanimalsleftbehind@socal.rr.com (also our PayPal email for donations and sponsorships).
