Story
Loki is a people dog. He loves his toys, loves chasing tennis balls, is a good eater, sleeps through the night, and loves sitting on your lap. He needs his people to be home during the day, as he is a barker when his people leave. He would also do best in a home without cats as he chases them.

Story
Searching for a furry companion who loves snuggling and showering you with affection? Look no further than Miki! Weighing just 12 lbs., this 1½ year old adorable girl is the perfect size for cozy cuddles. Whether it's curling up in your lap or snuggling beside you on the couch, Miki's favorite place is right by your side, spreading joy and love. Miki is an incredibly friendly and loving pup. Her sociable nature makes her a delight to be around, as she eagerly welcomes new human and canine friends into her world. She has shown great compatibility with dogs of all sizes and enjoys engaging in playful romps with them. While her foster home doesn't have cats, Miki remains calm and composed in the presence of feral cats she encounters outside. Miki is well-behaved indoors, displaying minimal barking. She loves going for walks and hikes. However, it's worth noting that Miki isn't particularly fond of car rides, as they tend to make her a bit anxious and result in some drooling. Miki's foster home reports that she has adjusted well and is thriving in a nurturing environment. Now, Miki is eagerly awaiting her forever home, where she can continue to spread happiness and snuggles to her new family. If you're ready to open your heart and home to this little snuggler,, please complete our application at 1luckydogrescue.org, or contact Nancy at nancymoore016@gmail.com. If contacting by email, please tell us a little about the home you would offer Miki.

Story
*** THIS IS A COURTESY POSTING *** Once Zippy knows he is safe, he will be your devoted side kick. Zippy is a handsome adult Rat Terrier mix who is looking for a family to call his own. Zippy is estimated to be four years old and weighs 20 pounds. He was a stray with no identification when neighbors banded together and were able to capture him. One family had Zippy neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped. He is currently up to date on all vaccines. Zippy has been in the same home for a year, but the family is unable to keep him due to incompatibility with their older dog. Zippy is accustomed to being inside and is mostly housebroken (of course he would need to learn the rules at your house.) While he is active outside and loves doing zoomies in the yard, he is good natured, obedient, and calm indoors. He loves children who are willing to take the time for him to feel safe, so older children are preferred. Once Zippy knows he’s safe, he’ll be faithfully at their side. More than anything, Zippy loves people and loves to snuggle on the couch or in bed. He also is cat friendly and has a feline best friend. Zippy will shine as an only dog in a home where he does not need to share the attention. Zippy is frightened by loud noises and takes time to warm up to strangers so he needs a family who will help him through those scary times. Zippy can be an escape artist if a door or gate is left open. Fortunately, he is not a digger. If you think your home is a good match for Zippy, please email Sue at dogs@s2springer.com and describe a bit about the home you would provide for this young man.

Story
Meet Moose! He's a 5 year old rat terrier mix who is cute as a button. This sweetheart was adopted out a few years ago but unfortunately got stressed with a new move and living in a very busy city in an apartment so is back with us looking for a more quiet home. Moose LOVES his person, is extremely loving and affectionate - he is a velcro dog and wants to sit in your lap and give kisses. He's fostered with other dogs whom he does well with - he is crate trained and is a good alert dog and will let you know when someone is near the house. His ideal home is with adults who have a quiet household and are looking for a loyal, loving companion. If you are interested in meeting Moose please fill out an application at our website: www.gobeyondrescue.org/adopt Our adoption fee is $450 and includes spay/neuter, microchipping and up to date vaccines.
