Story
Lady Di is just her undercover alias. Around here she’s known as Cookie ( or Cooks, if you’re one of her friends ….which happens to be everyone:). This 11 month old 10 lb shih tzu is serving up serious cookies and cream perfection with her adorable and less sheddy black and white coat. She’s as sweet as can be and everyone loves her….just like a cookie. Kids? Loves them. Dogs? Loves alll her foster friends and there are six plus a cat and two kittens. Now…for the headline you’ve all been waiting for….. * COOKIE IS POTTY TRAINED! Not mostly, not working on it…actually potty trained…like she goes to the front door or back and scratches on it to go out. Hallelujah! I been fostering a loooooong time and this is gift I tell you. Cookie isn’t your typical wild child pup. She’s very calm unless she see’s a cat or squirrel. With the squirrels …her intentions are questionable... so no squirrel friends!! She loves a nice short walk outside ,but will also cuddle up on the couch. She is crate trained, but would rather sleep in your bed and has earned the right with those excellent potty skills…. I mean she is a LADY after all. She’s a sweet ,gentle gal with great manners ready to steal your heart and for sure your spot on the sofa. Hope you are ready!!! Local adoption fee is $450 (in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $700 (includes transport to your area)

Story
Kylian 2 years, neutered male, 16lbs Shih Tzu mix LIKES: People and cuddles, running around in the backyard exploring, playing with toys, being curious and being a part of the family. DISLIKES: Being confined to a crate and visits to the groomer. PERSONALITY TRAITS: Kylian a street smart dog that is fearless and curious. He’s an energetic and happy little guy who loves action and adventures. He follows the lead of his foster dog brother, and happily chases him for a couple laps around the yard. He’s cute as can be and loves to either curl up at the foot of the couch or hop up on your lap for some good cuddle time. POTTY TRAINING: Work in progress. He still doesn’t ask to go outside but does his business when he’s taken out regularly. He was recently neutered and may need to wear belly bands for a bit to reduce marking behavior. CRATE TRAINING: He doesn't love being crated and can be vocal and needs more positive reinforcement training to become comfortable having down time. OTHER/MISC: Kylian was recently neutered and had surgery for his eyelid "cherry eyes." He’s recovering from those procedures and needs to wear a cone for another week. He has not had experience with cats or kids at his foster home. Kylian is looking for a family that can help him learn his manners and would do well with an experienced owner that enjoys training. To further inquire about KYLIAN, submit an application. https://wigglytails.org/adoption-application/ Tell us about yourself, family, other pets, and how KYLIAN will mesh with your lifestyle. Qualifying applicants will be contacted by our Adoption Coordinator with next steps and an opportunity to set up a Meet & Greet. Our process is NOT a “first come, first served” process. (We DO NOT hold pets for later consideration.) Our team carefully reviews and interviews applicants for the best possible fit for each adoptable pet, and potential family. Submitting an application does not guarantee a call or response from our rescue. Our volunteers will screen the applications and reach out if it is determined to be a good fit. We look forward to facilitating a positive and solid adoption for KYLIAN, as well as his future family. *Fostered in Eugene/Springfield, OR ADOPTION APP: https://wigglytails.org/adoption-application/ ##2769491##

Story
**We adopt our dogs to families within 50 miles of Grants Pass, Oregon. All applications are screened for compatibility with the dog of interest. We will ask for pictures of your home and yard. If you are interested in being considered as a potential adopter, please fill out our online application at: www.ssfdogs.org. Follow the tabs to 'dogs for adoption'. Kiko is a 17 pound, neutered male Shih Tzu, approximately 5 years old. As a housebroken and well-mannered indoor companion, Kiko is ready to bring joy and companionship to his forever home. Kiko would love a home with a fenced yard and a family that is home most of the time. Kiko is very sweet and loyal and loves all people. He's confident in public places and loves going for car rides. He will bark excitedly at other dogs while on walks, but we have worked on this and he is improving. He will need continued training to maintain these improvements. Kiko enjoys children and shares his toys well with adult humans, however he is selfish about his resources around other dogs so for that reason, we are not going to place him in a home with other dogs, cats nor children under age 10.

Story
Cardamom has already proven she will do anything for the ones she loves. Before coming to rescue, Cardamom was kept outside year-round. During the bitter cold of winter, she gave birth to and raised three puppies outdoors. Somehow, thanks to her incredible devotion and survival instinct, all three puppies made it through. By the time she arrived here, every hair on her body was matted. Her coat was one solid tangle, so she had to be completely shaved to give her a fresh start. Her hair is still short right now, but it will grow back beautifully. At around 3 years old, Cardamom is a sweet Shih Tzu who gets along wonderfully with other dogs and cats. She has left her difficult past behind and is ready to enjoy the comfortable life she always deserved. After spending her life taking care of everyone else, it's finally Cardamom's turn to be the one who is loved and cared for. Good fit: someone looking for a sweet, gentle companion who gets along well with other pets and deserves a lifetime of comfort. Adoption process: All adoptions are completed prior to transport. Dogs are picked up at designated transport locations. If an adoption doesn’t work out (rare, but life happens), we always take our dogs back. Location: Oklahoma (available to approved out-of-state adopters via transport) Health: Fully vetted (neutered/spayed, vaccinated, microchipped, heartworm tested) Adoption fee: $550 (includes transport + vetting) Bonus: Each adoption includes a 30-minute phone consultation with a professional trainer Transport routes: WA, OR, ID, MT, UT, WY, CO, MN, WI, IA, IL, IN, OH, PA, MD, NY, NJ Think you might be a good fit?

Story
If you've ever wanted to know what it would be like to live with a tiny retired beauty queen who still believes she's the main character, allow us to introduce you to Mopsey Topsey. This little girl is equal parts doll, comedian, socialite, and diva. One minute she's carrying around a toy like the happiest dog on earth, the next she's giving you a look that says she's not impressed with your life choices. Mopsey has enough personality packed into her 12 lb body to entertain an entire household, and honestly, we wouldn't have her any other way. Watch her video and prepare to fall in love with this tiny firecracker: https://youtu.be/AEwQxgF0MIM?si=tKzwjmK6Hz5xYds0 Mopsey Topsey is approximately 8 years old, though she may be a little older, if you ask Mopsey, however, age is nothing more than a suggestion. This girl still has plenty of pep in her step, lots of opinions, and enough spunk to keep everyone around her laughing. We believe she may be a Shih Tzu mix, but with rescue it's always a mystery and we can never guarantee breed or age. What we can guarantee is that she's absolutely adorable and looks like a little living doll. The best thing about Mopsey is hands down her personality. She is fun, lively, goofy, affectionate, and just the right amount of sassy. She has that special talent of making ordinary moments feel more entertaining simply because she's involved. Whether she's trotting around the house, carrying a toy, demanding attention, or making her opinions known, Mopsey keeps life interesting. One of the things we love most about Mopsey is that she truly embraces life. She doesn't seem to know she's considered a senior. She approaches every day with enthusiasm, curiosity, and a healthy dose of confidence. She's proof that getting older doesn't mean slowing down. It just means you've had more time to perfect your craft, and Mopsey has absolutely perfected the art of being adorable. Speaking of toys, this girl loves them. Stuffy toys are her favorite and she is more than happy entertaining herself with a toy while also making sure everyone knows how much fun she's having. She's playful, silly, and genuinely seems to enjoy life. Mopsey is crate trained, potty trained, and has already mastered the basics of home life. She's well past the puppy chaos stage but still has plenty of personality and energy left to share with her future family. Mopsey is dog friendly and has done well with dogs both her size and dogs several times larger than her. That said, Mopsey very much has her own personality and her own ideas about how social interactions should go. She may decide she wants to play one minute and then decide she's done the next. She likes being the one in charge of the social calendar and appreciates dogs that don't take life too seriously. Because of this, she'd do best with easygoing dogs that can laugh off a little diva behavior and aren't bothered by her occasionally changing her mind. She enjoys canine company but certainly doesn't need another dog in the home to be happy. Mopsey also met our house cat Biggie and met him appropriately and was very respectful around him. She did not chase Biggie, nor was she bothered by Biggie jumping or doing what cats do. Biggie also felt comfortable around her as well. We do not know if she has ever lived in a home before with a cat and this was our first time seeing her with a cat. If you have a cat in the home, we can arrange for her to have a sleepover with a cat upon request. Just let us know! One of the things we love most about Mopsey is that she truly embraces life. She doesn't seem to know she's considered a senior. She approaches every day with enthusiasm, curiosity, and a healthy dose of confidence. She's proof that getting older doesn't mean slowing down. It just means you've had more time to perfect your craft, and Mopsey has absolutely perfected the art of being adorable. We think Mopsey would thrive with someone who appreciates a dog with character. Not a robot. Not a dog that fades into the background. A dog that makes you laugh, keeps you company, and occasionally reminds everyone that she is, in fact, the queen of the household. If you're looking for a little dog with a big personality, a playful spirit, and enough charm to completely take over your heart, Mopsey might just be your girl. We are willing to test Mopsey Topsey with anything you need in order to ensure it's a perfect match. We can make anything happen! Just let us know. Ready to welcome a new furry friend into your life?
