Story
Meet Dan - De - Lion (or Dan) This adorable scruffy little guy is estimated to be around 8 years old and weighs just 10lbs. Maybe Shih Tzu, maybe Chihuahua, maybe a little bit of both - whatever he is, he’s absolutely precious. ❤️ Dandelion was dealt a rough hand (or paw). He was found alone after surviving a coyote attack and later was diagnosed with probable Cushing’s disease. Thankfully, he’s currently doing very well on meds given just once daily. Dan is the definition of a sweet companion. He loves people, attention, belly rubs, snacks, and simply being near his humans. He’s quiet, friendly, walks nicely on a leash, and doesn’t mind relaxing alone in his pen when needed. He has been fully vetted, including recent lab work and a dental, and is officially ready to find the forever family he deserves. Dandelion is dog friendly with calm, respectful dogs, though he’s more interested in peacefully coexisting than playing. After everything he’s been through, we would love nothing more than to see this little survivor finally get his happy ending.

Story
Meet Sadie! If you're looking for a loyal little bestie with a heart full of love, Sadie may be your perfect match. This adorable 4-year-old Shih Tzu/Terrier mix is as sweet as they come. With her beautiful red-and-cream coat, incredibly soft fur, and the most unique ears you've ever seen, Sadie turns heads wherever she goes. But it's her gentle personality that truly steals hearts. Sadie is a calm, loving companion whose favorite place in the world is right by her people. Whether you're working from home, relaxing on the couch, or heading out for a walk, she's happiest simply being part of your day. She loves snuggling, enjoys leisurely walks, and is perfectly content curling up in her dog bed nearby when it's time to relax. This wonderful girl is potty trained, non-destructive, walks beautifully on a leash, and is calm when meeting both people and other dogs. She's dog-friendly and currently lives peacefully with another small dog, though she tends to be politely uninterested in canine companionship. She is also great with children and happily lives with older kids in her foster home. Sadie knows "sit" and "shake," greets visitors with calm manners. In fact, her foster family says she doesn't jump, lick, or bark. One of Sadie's funniest habits is following her humans to the kitchen like a tiny furry assistant, putting on her best hopeful face when human food is involved! Sadie would thrive in a home that doesn’t have plans to crate her. She doesn't enjoy being crated and would prefer a safe, comfortable space to relax while her family is away. A work-from-home household or a family with a flexible schedule would be ideal. Her foster family describes her as sweet, calm, adorable, loving, funny, cuddly, and quiet. What they'll miss most is her constant companionship and gentle presence. Sadie is the kind of dog who makes every day a little brighter simply by being there. She has so much love to give and is ready to make one lucky family incredibly happy. Could Sadie be the missing piece of your family? *Sadie’s foster family will be going on vacation before Sadie’s medical required before adoption is completed. In an effort to move her as little as possible, we are in search of a foster to adopter that will help her finish her medical (spay, etc) at our vets, and then adopt her once it’s completed. (She is a healthy dog). Please apply and we can discuss further!* The adoption fee for Sadie is $400. This donation helps to cover veterinary expenses including spay/neuter, microchip and vaccinations. Wish Upon a Rescue is a 501(c)3 non-profit, foster based animal rescue. If you would like to meet sadie please complete our adoption questionnaire at www.wishuponarescue.org/adopt. We will review your responses and be in contact to schedule a meet and greet at a time and place convenient for your family and our team member.

Story
Dusty is an adorable 3-year-old special needs Shih Tzu. He was abandoned in our lobby by his owner because she could no longer care for him. He was so confused as to what was going on, but he slowly began to trust. Dusty was so heavily matted we could barely see him, but when the veterinarians shaved his fur, they noticed his left eye had glaucoma. His eye was removed and he is recovering in his foster home. Missing one eye has not slowed him down. He is very inquisitive of everything around him. He is in a foster home with 4 other furry brothers and sisters.
