Story
*****AVAILABLE NOW-I am in Yorkville Il awaiting my forever family******* Hi Everyone, My name is Oscar and I would like to add some wags to your tail. I am a precious 7 month old Teddy Bear (Shih Tzu/Bichon) baby who is looking for my forever people!! True to the adorable-sounding name, Teddy Bear dogs are a hybrid or designer cross breed of a Shih Tzu and a Bichon Frise. They are also known as a Zuchon or Shichon. Teddy Bear dogs are small in stature, but they make up for it with big hearts. They are loyal, loving to a fault, and capture the hearts of anyone they lay their eyes on. These dogs captured the hearts of the world around the 2000s when the designer breed became truly popular. I am going to make an excellent addition to a loving family!! I am adorable, smart, loving and sweet as sweet can be. I have a great temperament!! Investing your time and love into me will be so worth it!! I am a breeder release due to the failing economy. I am good with children and other animals. Please add a lotta unconditional love, sloppy kisses, tail wags and endless happiness to your family and contact jbrescuerangers@yahoo.com for an adoption application and bring me home. I will come with the works (Neutered, up to date on everything, micro chipped, fecal, heart worm tested if age appropriate, monthly heartworm, flea and tick prevented, a free vet visit and medical insurance). What more could a new family ask for? Love and Kisses, Oscar 332500901402353J

Story
Meet Paco the spicy taco! A terrier/Chihuahua mix, don't let his graying hair fool you! This little gentleman is very much full of the joys of life. Like his name suggests, this little nugget is a whole lot of spice! We believe he's around six years old (maybe older) and needs to be the only pet. Also, a no children household for this baby. He loves lazing around and is the perfect lap dog companion. He's very low maintenance, potty and pad trained and is just looking to be loved. He does come with some quirks, so we need someone patient and willing to work with him to iron out some of his challenges. He's a sweetie at heart and just wants a human he can call his own.    If you are interested in adopting/meeting , please complete our online adoption application that you can find here: https://www.starfishanimalrescue.com/adopt/dog-adoption-application  . Your application will be reviewed by our team and if it is a good fit, we will send to the foster family to set up a meet! The adoption fee of $200 will include spay/neuter, microchip, age appropriate/required vaccinations, treatment for heartworm and any other necessary medical treatment to assure a healthy new pup for your family. IMPORTANT DISCLAIMER: Although we do our best to describe breed, since our pups all come from shelters we can not and will not make any guarantee on breed or size. We can tell you that they are 100% RESCUED! And that is the BEST breed! *please note that we are a foster home based rescue and we do home visits as part of the adoption process - we are unable to adopt to families who live outside of the Chicago and surrounding suburbs. Thank you for your understanding. Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.March 27, 2024, 9:49 am

Story
Bradford is a very sweet older gentleman.  He is about 7-8 years old and currently around 24 pounds but should be closer to 20lbs.  We picked  him up from  a shelter when he was surrendered and was most likely very spoiled before as he has had to lose quite a bit of weight and while he is physically capable of moving around just fine he prefers to be picked up to go up and down stairs, on and off the bed, and on and off the couch.  He is such a cuddlier, he loves to take naps with you on the couch and he does enjoy playing with his people as well.  He does fine with other dogs but doesn't seem to play with them much, and is unbothered by cats.  He is good with older kids but does nip at times when he doesn't want to do something so he would not be good with younger kids.  He is on a strict diet and will need to continue to stay on it to get into a healthier weight.  He also came in with some skin issues which have now been cleared up but his breed requires regular grooming.  He does have some reverse sneezing (which the vet cleared) and dry eyes (he needs saline drops every day).  Otherwise he is healthy, fixed, microchipped, and up to date on vaccines. His adoption fee is $300 To adopt Bradford email us at kakf3133@gmail.comMarch 25, 2024, 4:23 pm

Story
Meet Tinker! She is guessed to be about 4 years old and weighs 10.5 lbs. She is a really sweet girl who will make a great companion. She's sweet, well-behaved, and lovable. She rides well in the car and does wonderful on walks. She would love her own fenced in yard with grass to roam and play in. She does have some narrowing of spaces between her vertebrae, Intervertebral Disc Disease (IVDD). It will be important to ensure she does not jump on or off furniture, does not engage in high impact activities, or activities which could cause back strain- like sudden changes of direction, and that she maintains a healthy weight. Complications with IVDD can lead to paralysis and incontinence, so it is best to manage and prevent any back strain. Because of the IVDD she does have a slightly abnormal gait, but she gets around with no issues right now. Application, reference checks, and home visit required. Adopters must live 1.5 hours driving distance from Romeoville, IL. For more information on adopting, please email us at info@perfectpooches.org. If you are interested in adopting, please complete an adoption application, which can be found on our website at www.perfectpooches.org under the Adoption Process tab. All dogs are spayed/neutered, current on vaccines, heartworm tested (age appropriate), fecal tested and/or dewormed, and microchipped.
