Story
This is our big man, tanner. I got him from a litter that my parents dog had. We never could quiet let him go. He is a very good boy and He has a BIG heart! He loves to cuddle and play. He is 9yrs old so he also does alot of sleeping and just laying around but if you wanna play He is all about the BALL! We have unfortunately become a much busier family with the kid in school and being able to go more places.

Apply on our website ( https://www.healingheartsrescue.org/adopt )  to  set up a private meeting or check below for my adoption event schedule. Age: Approximately 6 years old Weight: 21 lbs Dog friendly: Yes Cat friendly: Unknown Kid friendly: Older/Considerate kids only Potty trained: Yes, on a schedule Crate trained: Yes Munchie is such a sweet boy. He loves to follow his foster dad around the house, get lots of pets, and cuddle in his lap! He understands when it's time to eat, go outside, and go to bed! He enjoys playing by himself, but isn't interested in playing with other dogs. While he loves to cuddle, he also likes to do his own thing too, so a home without kids, or older, considerate kids would be best for him. He does love to be around other dogs though! He has 3 dog brothers in his foster home, and sometimes even cuddles up to them. He's very interested in the squirrels in the backyard, but other than that, he doesn't bark much, or cause much of a fuss. He would love a forever family that wants a fantastic, obedient companion!

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Shih Tzu / Maltese: 2YO/ 10lbs/ Adoption Fee $575 Hi, I’m Mateo! You can call me Matty for short. I’m a two year old little fluff ball guy. The rescue is guessing some sort of Shih Tzu/Maltese mix or similar. I’m about 14lb. I was living on Pine Ridge Reservation where it’s a tough life for us dogs as we typically don’t have adequate care and have to scrounge for food. My coat was very matted (hence my name!) and I was looking a little rough, so the dog rescue folk there that look me in gave me a little trim to get me looking better!   I’m an amazing sweet and mellow boy that loves to chill and sit in a lap! I also am great with kids. I’ve met quite a few! I’m good with other dogs and cats too. On the Rez there are many of us co-existing together. In my foster home I’m doing great with going potty outside, and I’m happy to sleep in a kennel or a bed with a human.  I’m a little shy at first but bond very quickly. I’m good on car rides and look forward to more socializing and fun experiences with my people in the future so I can see the bigger world around me and get even more brave so I don’t ever have to feel scared again.  The rescue says they will ensure I have a really good life where I never have to be scared or hungry again!   I would be a great addition to any home, especially one that likes to hang out with a companion lap buddy like me.    Could I be your next best friend? xoxo Mateo   Completion of an Adoption Application via our website (www.RescueCrew.org) is the best way to show your interest in an animal and is the first step in the adoption process. All companion animals adopted by The Rescue Crew are spayed/neutered, up-to-date on age appropriate vaccinations, tested for FIV/FeLK (cats) or heartworm (dogs), microchipped, dewormed and provided with monthly flea/tick and heartworm preventatives. The Rescue Crew is a foster based rescue organization, meaning all of our adoptable pets are located in homes throughout Minnesota. We do not have a physical location where you can stop by to visit the animals - we require the completion of an Adoption Application prior to meeting any of our adoptable pets in foster care. For the most complete information regarding this animal, and all of our adoptable pets, please ensure you are visiting our website directly at www.RescueCrew.org. You can also access the necessary online adoption application here as well. Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.May 27, 2023, 9:08 pm
