Story
Dharma is pretty as a picture and like most Terriers, she is happy, spunky, active, independent, good natured and lots of fun! She seems to love everybody and she loves the outdoors, so I think she would make a terrific walking or hiking partner. She was actually found at the grocery store visiting with everyone in the parking lot and entering the store through the automatic doors lol. She does fine with other dogs, but no cats! My wish for Dharma is to be adopted by a fun and active family that will include her in their everyday comings and goings. Dharma is 1 ½ years old (dob 7/27/24) and is a great size at 26 pounds. She has been spayed, microchipped, 4DX heartworm tested, fecal tested, current on all vaccinations, worming and is on heartworm and flea prevention. Her adoption fee is $400. Dharma is being fostered in Tennessee. Once adopted she will be transported to her pickup location by a professional dog transport company. Our rescue ships to the New England area every week and her fee includes transportation.

Story
Meet Maddie, a sweet and spirited 7-year-old mixed terrier looking for her perfect forever home. She’s incredibly smart, eager to learn, and happiest playing fetch, splashing in the water, or snuggling under a blanket with her humans. She adores ear scritches, baby carrots, and learning new tricks—especially when treats are involved! Maddie also loves tracking chipmunks. While her recall is excellent, a fenced yard is ideal to keep her safe during her explorations. She’s a sensitive soul who thrives with a little support and takes daily antianxiety medication and Proin, both of which she often takes with cheese! Maddie prefers all four paws on the ground and does not enjoy being picked up. She would do best as the only dog in a calm, adult home—young children and other dogs make her nervous, and she blossoms most when she feels secure. If you’re looking for a loyal, cuddly companion with a playful streak and a big heart, Maddie might be your perfect match!
