Blair is a lovable energetic dog that would thrive with an owner(s) who are also active with or without children. Blair is a hunter, so does not get along with unknown other dogs or cats. She is also a snuggler and craves attention. We have a senior dog who tolerates Blair and vice versa. Our family loves Blair, but she needs a family or owner that has more time to actively spend with her.

Story
Marilyn, a 5-year-old, 13-pound female rat terrier/chi mix, is a cuddle monster. She has adjusted well to city life after leaving San Diego. She flew to NYC back in February to help make space in the shelters for the LA dogs displaced by the fires. She has the most beautiful light brown eyes that will remain trained on her chosen human. She is loyal loving girl who loves any and all treats. She has learned to “sit” as long as there are treats involved. When home with her human, she must be touching you. She may bark once or twice when her human leaves the house but settles down very quickly and is fine until they return. She would do well in a home with another adult dog, as she suffers from solo dog separation anxiety. While she prefers being with her humans, the presence of another dog seems to soothe her. You must pay the belly rub tax when you leash her up and clean her paws. She does great on a leash and appears to be house trained.  Marilyn has a large bald patch on her back and tail. Her fur has begun to slowly grow back but  her forever family will want to keep an eye on this and make sure that her skin continues to improve. She is received a dental and had  a couple teeth extracted.  It appears she has had many babies in the past…and does not enjoy the energy of puppies. Who can blame her! She seems intrigued by the sounds of cats on TV but that remains untested.  View Marilyn in action Vaccinated for rabies, DHPP, lepto, and bordetella. Spayed, heartworm negative, and microchipped. Current on flea, tick, and heartworm prevention. To apply for Marilyn, visit our website (www.waggytailrescue.org) for an adoption application. It is important to fill out an application as soon as possible for consideration, and we require a complete application for you to meet an animal. We are currently unable to respond to general email inquiries as an all-volunteer run rescue. If the dog is on our website, they are still available. Waggytail Rescue CANNOT guarantee the exact age of any adoptable dog, or final size of any of our adoptable puppies. We rely on the information provided to us by veterinarians, shelters, owner surrenders and other circumstances bringing the dog into our rescue. Adoptions: adopt@waggytailrescue.org ##2286388##

Story
Hi there, my name is Ivy, and I am a pretty little 5.5-year-old, 10 lb “special needs” Rat Terrier/Chihuahua mix, but far more special than needy, I think! I am a distemper survivor left with a “wobble” (mild myoclonus), and I also have congestive heart failure, so I take 3 medications twice a day for the rest of my life. I started my journey in Houston, Texas, and stowed away with a group of dogs from a hoarder's home heading to San Antonio for fostering through 4 Little Paws Rescue. I suppose I wasn't wanted by whoever put me on board, so I’m grateful for a better opportunity to find a nice forever home! I am a happy little lady with an easy vibe, and friendly with everyone… strangers, kids, dogs, you name it. I’m a cool combination of independent, affectionate, doting, and chilaxed, and I enjoy snuggling with my people, although I’m just as content being under a blanket in my doggy bed. Sometimes I’m curious and like to explore, sometimes I enjoy a dog chewbone, and I always enjoy a yummy doggy treat; otherwise, I’m not into dog toys, and can easily entertain myself. I am well-behaved in a home, already housebroken, and only bark if I need to alert you, so my foster mom lets me roam freely when I’m home alone. At bedtime, I sleep in my dog bed under a blanket (that must be the Chihuahua in me, always loving being under a blanket, LOL). So that's everything. I’m easy-peasy, no trouble at all, and I’m adorable, and deserving of a wonderful, happy, loving life! I hope you inquire about me today! * 4 Little Paws is based in CT. We adopt in many different states along the East Coast. Transport costs are included in the adoption fee. If you are located outside the states we typically adopt to, we have options to get the dog of your dreams to your location.
