Story
Yep, Gloria is giving all you people the stink eye. Why? She thinks nobody wants her because she happens to be 18 years old. But Gloria figures if senior citizens aren't too old to run for President, then they're not too old to be adopted. Sure, the vision and hearing aren't quite what they used to be, but she sees well enough to find a sunny spot in which to bask and to do a happy dance when you bring out the leash, meaning it's time for a walk. Plus, your fingers will love getting lost in her silky soft fur, and your lap will appreciate that she maintains a fit weight of 11lbs. by eating her prescription kidney diet food. She also takes arthritis medication daily to help guarantee that she'll continue enjoying those walks and the occasional car ride to nowhere in particular that she loves so much. Together both prescriptions cost about $50/month, and when you see how much she enjoy's life's small pleasures, you'll know it's worth every penny.   Gloria is reliably house-trained as long as you can take her out when she needs to go, a need which may occur in the middle of the night. Let's get rid of Gloria's stink-eye, and get this gal adopted. See more photos of Gloria at  https://imageevent.com/newrattitude/goldiegloria .   NOTE: Adopters should live close enough to Denham Springs, Louisiana, to make multiple visits in order to ease the transition to a new home.Our adoption fee is $200 for adult dogs or $250 for puppies under 6 months old. If you are interested in adopting this dog, PLEASE READ THE DETAILED ADOPTION PROCESS information on our website at www. NewRattitude.org/adopt/  From there, you can access our adoption application or contact our Adoption Team for more info. April 25, 2024, 1:00 pm

Quella is a sweet, quiet, loving girl who just wants to cuddle and watch movies. She's estimated around 12 years old. She must be on a special diet because she has a very sensitive stomach. She has hypothyroidism, but the medicine for that is not expensive. She's an older lady with arthritis, but is otherwise pretty healthy. She's a very, very good girl.

Story
This sweet pooch needs a home. Her name is Dottie. She’s great with children, house broken and spayed. A few months ago my father-in-law found her roaming his property in the country. He figured she would find her way home, but every day he returned she was there waiting for him🥹. After a few weeks of this, we realized maybe her previous owner had dropped her off. Before the first freeze, we decided to take her in and foster her until we could find her a permanent home. She loves belly rubs, she’s very affectionate and she loves to snuggle.
