Story
Like, oh my gawd ! My living conditions in TX were not what this girl needed. When I got to Wisconsin I was like all pampered and stuff …but I still needed to take care of my babes. Now they are like grown and don’t need their mama so much 🥹 …so I can be like totally independent. Fer shur this cold 🥶 weather is not normal to me, so I'm going to need some pretty pink sweaters. I look totally “Pretty In Pink !” 🩷Hi Biggie Paws 🐾 Peeps ! I am Mitzi. I’m like around 6 years old and weigh about 10 pounds …as if !? I guess I totally look like a Yorkie Mix. I am the mama to the Cutie Patootie pups you’ve been “Ooooing” and “Awwwing” over ! ❤️ I am hanging 😎 out in Franklin Wisconsin waiting for my Fur-Ever home ! 🏡 I’m a totally rad girl ! I can like do my business 🚽💩 outside. No need to fence me in a yard ! I LOVE ❤️ attention …and like, I ain’t planning to run nowhere ! I can chill 😎 with everybody …other dogs, 🐕 cats 🐈 and little peeps. 🍼 I’m totally down with having my belly rubbed, napping on the back of the couch - just watching 👀 the world 🌍 go by. 🥰 Right now, I snooz with my babes in a kennel, and I’m totally cool 👍🏼 with catching Zzzz’s 😴 in a crate.If you’d like to be considered to hang 🤙 with me, please fill out an adoption application under the link directly below.

Story
My name is Emerald! I am a retired puppy mill survivor. I am between 6-8 years old Shih Tzu and Poodle mix which is called a Shih Poo. I weight 11 pounds. I am friendly with dogs and cats! A dog sibling would be so awesome to help show me the ropes on how to be a dog. I am still working on my potty training. Crate trained is unknown as I spent my entire life in a crate, so my foster mommy either lets me free roam of the kitchen or in an excerise pen when my foster mommy has to go out to run errands. I am still working on leash training as I was never walked on a leash in my entire life so I am still learning how to. A home with fenced in yard is required as I am a huge flight risk since I am still learning new things that I have never seen before and would get scared easily. I am also looking for a family that would be patience with me through my retirement journey. I am spayed, microchipped, up to date on my vaccinations, and comes with CVI Health Certificate. Her adoption Fee is $450.00 Fostered in Racine, WI If interested in adopting, please fill out the adoption application at this link: https://www.cognitoforms.com/TinyPawsSmallDogRescue1/AdoptionApplication Any questions, please reach out to Connie at cjwilson2804@gmail.com We are a volunteer based, foster based nonprofit Rescue, please be patience to get responses.
