Story
Skittles was owner surrendered To horn lake animal shelter. She is three y.o. and about 13 lbs They reached out to rescue because skittles was so afraid and was growling at everyone except one employee. She has been very good with me after her first 24 hours. I gave her a safe spot where she can get used to the rest of the household. She likes her kennel and will come in and out of it. She has seen both a groomer and been spayed without incident. She does take time to warm up to people so I think her ideal space would have no small children and limited other people In the home. Her adoption fee is $300 After reading this pet's info, if you are still interested in adopting, please fill out the online adoption application found at realgooddogrescue.com The ideal home for this Real Good Dog will have a secure fenced yard.

Story
Tucker is a three year old male shih tzu who weighs about 20 lbs. He is a sweet dog who is fairly independent. He tolerates other dogs but would be happy as an only dog. Tucker came from Memphis animal shelter two years ago. He was adopted briefly but his adopter was diagnosed with terminal cancer. Tucker came to us with bad allergies and bad skin. We have allergy tested him and given him a series of shots. He still sometimes gets cytopoint to help with itching. He does best with frequent medicated baths. He also has dry eye and takes prescription eye drops. We have no adoption fee for someone with an excellent vet reference who is willing to adopt Tucker knowing his needs.

Story
Mindy is a 7 year old 10 lb. Shih Tzu/yorkie mix. She was scared in the shelter and did not greet very well. She seems a lot more relaxed now that she is out of the shelter. Mindy is spayed and heartworm neg. She has some skin issues from fleas and will probably need eye drops. I’m hoping to continue to gain her trust so that she can accept the drops. She is getting a medicated bath and some itch relief for the skin. She is a very cute little dog After reading this pet's info, if you are still interested in adopting, please fill out the online adoption application found at realgooddogrescue.com The ideal home for this Real Good Dog will have a secure fenced yard.
