Story
SNICKERS is a 9 yr old Benji-type mix who was given up because her family didn’t have time for her. She is shy but once she warms up, Snickers is a total sweetheart. Currently in a foster home, here is her bio in the words of her foster mom: “Snickers is a 9 year old ray of sunshine. She exists with my 5 resident dogs. 4 yorkies and a golden retriever. They all sleep together at night. She is potty trained and will let you know she needs to go. Good on a leash and loves her walks. She will lay in her crate to nap or on your lap. She does well with free roam when you’re not home. She likes car rides and loves the beach. Snickers first 9 years were a little rough. She takes a few minutes to warm up to you. Fast movements and grabbing for her can scare her. She has been great with kids as long as they don’t chase her or try to pick her up, these things scare her. She is full of spunk for an active family and also content laying low for a more laid back family. As long as you have some French fries and Ritz crackers she’s your girl. She’s been an absolute Angel here with us learning not everything is scary.” Snickers has an appointment for a spay and dental at the end of the month and will be officially available the beginning of June. We are accepting applications now at www.companimals.org. Senior Dog experience is a plus!  Adoption $250. Please fill out an application prior to setting up a meeting greet. May 30, 2023, 9:33 pm

Story
Aretha is a 10 year old spayed female Shih Tzu who weighs 9.5 lbs. Aretha came to All 4 Paws from a commercial kennel after she was retired from breeding. This girl has a lot of life to live and deserves to be spoiled and loved. She is very sweet and loves to receive attention from her foster mama. Her ideal home will have someone home often to dote on her. She loves to be petted and to hang out with her people. Aretha is great with other dogs of all sizes and does well with cats too. She'd prefer a family with a canine companion to continue to help show her the ropes. A quieter home would be best for her as she is still adjusting to her new life as a beloved pet. Aretha is doing well with her training, but will need a patient family willing to continue to be patient with her. In time we have no doubt this cute little lady will flourish! Please help us find Aretha the devoted forever family she's been dreaming of!Help us continue to step up for dogs like Aretha and consider donating towards their medical care: https://secure.givelively.org/donate/all-4-paws-rescue/did-you-know-recent-rescue-statsInterested in adopting?

Story
MEET MAGIC! Magic is a charming little 15 year old Shih Tzu. Magic had a rough holiday season and found himself abandoned at an emergency vet because he was experiencing lethargy and pain. The hospital staff reached out to us when they couldn't find anything medically wrong with Magic, hoping we could find him the perfect home. He landed in foster care and has spent the time since bouncing back from the neglect he experienced. Magic absolutely adores his humans and loves to take long naps like any little old man. Magic likes other animals and would do well with another low-key dog or friendly cat. Magic enjoys walks but won't necessarily want to be your new hiking buddy. He'll let you know when he’s done and ready to go home, especially when it’s inclement weather! Magic isn’t a fan of being picked up or having his harness taken on and off, mainly because he is an older dog with older joints and age-related arthritis. Magic would do best in a home without children as he does have a tendency to nip when picked up or when frightened. Magic will need a human who will be patient with him and go slow and get to know his quirks. Once he is settled in, Magic is truly magical! Magic is potty trained but uses belly bands just to be safe when he needs to spend prolonged time alone. He takes daily gabapentin for his arthritis which has greatly improved his quality of life and which he should remain on to keep feeling good. He has slightly high kidney function levels but not to the degree that he needs medical intervention at this time. It's something that should be kept an eye on as he continues to age. He may eventually need a prescription kidney diet. Magic came to us with chronic dry eye (KCS) which was never addressed and caused an ulcer in one eye. After trying to heal the ulcer, his doctors decided the most effective way to relieve the pain he was experiencing in that eye would be to remove the no-good eye altogether. He's since had enucleation surgery and has healed well! That eye wasn't doing him any favors anyway so now he just looks adorably wonky and is no longer in pain! Magic is available for adoption through City of Elderly Love. He is neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped. Interested in adopting him?
