Story
    Hi!   I know all of you want to be my friends because I love all people. I may be the friendliest guy around. Even loving the workmen that have been here making tons of noise, I sit by the glass door waiting for them to come out.   I am 8 to 9 years old, but you would never guess it.  I am a muscular guy and not overweight. I am a mix of shih tzu and something else - not sure what. I weigh about 20 pounds. I strut around like I am king of the house, but I am really just a softee. I am the biggest guy here, but I do whatever the others want me to do.   I am potty and crate trained and really love my crate enough to put myself in it at times. I eat nicely and never steal the food from the other dogs who live here with me.   I enjoy being outside and like to explore. I also like to sun bath at times. I like the car and am likely to fall asleep there!  I do fine on a leash as well.   I would love to have my own family and hope you will be that family!   Love you already Jasper   An Adoption Application for this dog can be found and submitted online. http://www.angelsrescue.org/adopt/adoption-forms  Please be sure to like our Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/angelsrescue.  Email inquiry@angelsrescue.org  Note: Some apartments and neighborhoods have breed restrictions.

Story
    Frankie Finn is an adorable, 3 year old, Maltese/Shih Tzu mix. He came to us badly matted and had to be shaved, but his hair is beginning to grow out and he will be even more gorgeous when he has the beautiful coat these breeds are known for.    He is affectionate and playful. He can entertain himself with toys and even loves fetching balls. He also loves curling up with you and sleeping in your lap. He is also good on a leash and loves walks.    He is a work in progress with crate training and we are working with him on his house training. He has made a lot of progress. He responds well to patience and positive affirmations. He is food motivated.    Frankie Finn loves men, women, children, dogs of any size, deer, and pretty much anyone he meets. He is neutered and up to date on all of his vaccinations. He is heart worm negative and healthy. He has a lot of personality.    If you are interested in meeting Frankie Finn submit an application. Once approved, a meet & greet can be scheduled to see if you are a good fit. He will probably steal your heart.  An Adoption Application for this dog can be found and submitted online. http://www.angelsrescue.org/adopt/adoption-forms  Please be sure to like our Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/angelsrescue.  Email inquiry@angelsrescue.org  Note: Some apartments and neighborhoods have breed restrictions.

Story
Meet Barley!  Late one night, we saw a post on NextDoor about 2 pitiful looking dogs being given away for free - always a bad idea! We knew we had to help… When we went to pick them up, we realized just how right we had been. Poor Barley was a total hot mess - so so matted with all kinds of stuff stuck in his fur, even plastic tree pieces! Rye, being younger and having a different type of coat, was physically in decent shape but totally terrified - they both were! It took several hours and a trip to our favorite Wills Park Vet for some “happy juice” for us to be able to get Barley shaved down and cleaned up.  Then it was back to their foster home for a few days of decompression before heading back to the vet for Barley’s neuter appointment. Rye is still a bit young to spay, so she wasn’t originally included in that little outing. But when we tried loading up Barley without Rye, they both went into a panic so she ended up going along for moral support!  It’s now been just shy of two weeks since we rescued this dynamic duo and we are so so proud of all of the progress they have made! They are both completely different dogs from the two terrified hot messes we rescued. They’ve learned to play; they absolutely love cuddles with foster mom; and most importantly they no longer feel the need to be physically touching each other 24/7. But they are still very much attached to each other!  We are continuing to work on building their confidence individually, but for the time being at least, we are treating them as a bonded pair who will need to be adopted together. They’re also still quite young - Rye is only 4 months old and Barley just barely a year - so between their age and their delayed start with socialization they will also need to have another confident adult dog in the home to continue teaching them how to “dog”. We do realize this will make finding them a home a bit more challenging, but we aren’t looking for the easy home - we are looking for the perfect home! If you are interested, email adrienne@rescuemega.org or fill out an adoption application on our website- www.rmgdogs.org PLEASE NOTE: The adoption requirements for Barley and Rye are strict. They must be adopted together, with another confident dog in the home. They also need a securely fenced yard ##2834585##

Story
Say Hello to Edith, the Ewok - the cutest, sweetest girl around!    Edith is about 7-8 years and just over 20 lbs. She’s very chill and happy to lay on her favorite bed most of the day…but 2-3 times a day she gets all excited and jumps around and spins in circles. It is the cutest thing you’ve ever seen!    Edith does have a heart murmur so has to have a pill twice a day but if you put with her food, she’ll just eat it right up. She also has a dry eye condition that clouds her vision a bit and requires once a day eye wipe and drops. However she gets around so well and doesn’t let it stop her. Her foster mom had her yard completely dug up for a few months and she navigated it perfectly.     Edith is currently  living with several dogs (big and small) and cats and does well with all. She would do best in a house without super rambunctious dogs but seems to like the company of another dog and definitely loves humans. She’s a one of a kind!   Interested in adopting our adorable little Ewok? Email adrienne@rescuemega.org or fill out an adoption application on our website- www.rmgdogs.org ##2622243##

Story
    Meet Sasha Sam – Your Future Lapdog & Quiet Companion Sasha   Sam is a charming, 3-to-5-year-old, male, Japanese Chin mix, looking for the perfect forever home where he can truly shine. This little gentleman is already crate-trained and fully house-trained, and he walks beautifully on a leash. He is always ready and very much enjoys calm strolls.   Once Sasha Sam feels safe, he transforms into the sweetest    boy you’ll ever meet. He adores being a dedicated lapdog, and he lights up with pure joy when it’s time to play. Sasha thrives in a peaceful, low noise household. Everyday sounds can set off a lot of barking, so he needs a calm environment free from constant noise or chaos. Soft, patient introductions are key - he needs time to “warm up” to new people and dogs at his own pace. Because he can become fearful and reactive if overwhelmed, he requires an adult-only home or one with teens and older. The ideal setup is a single family home where he is the only dog, or at most one other calm canine companion.   If you’re seeking a devoted, playful little friend who will reward your patience with affection and loyalty, Sasha Sam is ready to fill your quiet home with love. Give this special Japanese Chin the gentle, peaceful life he deserves - he’ll repay you with the sweetest companionship imaginable. An Adoption Application for this dog can be found and submitted online. http://www.angelsrescue.org/adopt/adoption-forms  Please be sure to like our Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/angelsrescue.  Email inquiry@angelsrescue.org  Note: Some apartments and neighborhoods have breed restrictions.
