Let the adventures begin! * Thank you for your interest in adopting a dog from Little Dog Rescue. Our dogs come from a variety of sources and backgrounds. They are all in need of adopters that have patience, an understanding of where these dogs have come from, and that there will be an adjustment time when they transition into their forever home. This can include learning basic commands, walking on leash and potty training. Some dogs will pick up on your routine and expectations faster than others. Potty accidents will happen. We find that positive reinforcement, consistency, and routine from the adopter achieves the best results. We are a small, all volunteers team and give 100% of our efforts towards doing right by these pups. We are often juggling many responsibilities at the same time and do our very best to process inquiries and applications in a timely manner. We do prioritize inquiries that have a submitted application on file through the Little Dog Rescue website. We do our best to accurately assign breed designations, however we are unable to guarantee 100% accuracy. Sometimes we only have the dogs appearance to go on. Our adoption fees are thoughtfully considered. The adoption fee is not a purchase price for the dog. It is a fee that is designed to support the overall work of our rescue. Highly desirable dogs and puppies are intentionally listed with a higher adoption fee. This is done to help offset the enormous medical expenses we incur when taking in older pups and special needs medical dogs whose adoption fees do not come close to covering their expenses. In addition, the vast majority of our dogs are brought in from out of state and incur transport fees along with their medical and acquisition costs. We ask that you take all of these things into consideration, and we look forward to finding a great match for your family.

Piper is a fun loving and animated girl that loves to run free, exploring her new world outside of a kennel. She loves backrubs and nose kisses and is so appreciative of any attention or affection. Piper has "served her time" as a mother and deserves to spend the rest of her life as a caring companion with someone whose heart is melted by her huge brown eyes and goofy smile. She is great with other dogs and loves to be outdoors, but is also happy curled up in her bed being pampered and cared for. The special person that adopts this loving girl will be richly rewarded with an adoring and appreciative friend for life!

FOSTER OR FOREVER HOME NEEDED: Meet Milo! He is a 3-year-old, 11 lb, Shih Tzu who was a stray and came to us from an overcrowded shelter in CA. Milo is a sweet boy who lost his leg shortly after being picked up as a stray as it was fractured and displaced. He is now a tripod, but it does not slow him down one bit. He can jump up steps but would prefer to be lifted. He likes to cuddle and play with toys. He will walk on a leash but needs some training. He loves to follow you around and see what you are up to. He is crate trained but also sleeps well in a dog bed during the night. He is food motivated which is always great for training. He does fine with other dogs but could also be fine as an only dog who gets all of the love and attention. He is working on his house-training skills and will need an adopter who is able to help him continue with this. He would love a yard where he can run and play (having only 3 legs does not slow this boy down one bit). He enjoys car rides and is a great travel companion. He does struggle with balancing on hardwood floors with only 3 legs and would do best in a house that is carpeted or has area rugs. He can be a little mouthy during his playtime and will resource guard when he is chewing on a toy so we would not advise a home with small children. Milo is up to date on his vaccinations, neutered and microchipped. His adoption fee is $450.

This boy is a special boy, he is so loving & devoted to you. Soul destroying to think of what he has been through & yet he still loves human beings even after everything they have done to him. We cannot even begin to imagine what Miles witnessed & heard when he was at the slaughterhouse, how Miles ended up in a slaughterhouse for human consumption & yes you did read that correctly, we will never know? What we do know is, he was pulled out of there by our outstanding Chinese rescuer just in time. It’s absolutely soul destroying to think about the horrific situation he ended up in. Working with one of our truly devoted, dedicated & absolutely outstanding Chinese rescuers she rescued Miles & many others for us. Without this beloved rescuer going in & getting Miles out, his fate was a torturous death. She transferred Miles to her own rescue & covid had hit & the waiting began. Along with Miles & many other sweet souls she got well & they waited to come to the US. This became a very extremely expensive situation with covid. We were finally able to bring everyone back through cargo which is an astronomical expense per dog, but we believe every sweet soul such as Miles & his & friends deserves to be loved & cherished & given the chance to have a wonderful life. Now Miles is looking for a special family to cherish him & be patient with him & remember what this beautiful soul has been through & a family that meets all his needs. Miles was rescued by our truly amazing Chinese rescue friends & just as always we are beyond grateful to the Chinese rescue who we are so extremely thankful for what they do day in & day out for these babies, we cannot thank them enough. Miles was bought back to the USA where he is now a US citizen & is so happy to be here & can’t wait to find his new loving devoted forever home. Talk about melt your heart & love you to pieces, that’s Miles his foster family said. He is the sweetest boy who looks at you with such gratitude & just wants to be your everything. Wherever you are, he wants to be. His foster family said he will want to sleep in bed with you & will snuggle up with the other dogs too. He does eat clean in his foster home, meaning, grains, fruits, vegetables, proteins & supplements. He is also great about wearing outfits & being amenable to all situations. He adores being hugged & held because the reality is we are the first real people in his life to show him such true love & affection. He also is very loyal. Miles has been taught to walk on a harness & leash since being in the rescue & in his foster home & considering we believe we are the first people to teach him how to go on walks, he is a wonderful walker. Miles is a rescue & will need patience, time & understanding. Miles adores being pampered & doesn’t want you to stop when brushing his, cleaning his eyes, grooming he, he loves it all. He does well with his baths & is so good with the hairdryer. He also does extremely well being touched in general & adores receiving love. Having toys & a warm bed is all new to Miles & we have been excited to change his world with the introduction of toys & lots of love & affection & a loving environment. He likes laying on you when he is with you or on comfy blankets. Miles has learnt to ride in the car & does well in the car & enjoys a good car ride. He is such an amazing, loving little lad. He just sits back & enjoys the journey. With Miles we are only looking for a crate free home for this lovely little lad only. We are also looking for a forever home for Miles where someone is home during the day or he can go with his people wherever possibly he can go with them. Miles is looking for a forever home who will cherish him & love him as he should be loved & be very patient with him & understanding. Miles has been around many breeds of dogs all shapes & sizes & he is currently with other dogs & enjoys their company but could go to a forever home as the only dog. A fully fenced backyard is mandatory for Miles new forever home. Meaning he can live in a condo or apartment. Miles is now roughly 9 lbs & is 8 years old & a shi tzu & what he is mixed with we are not sure? He is neutered & male, he had a dental/scale & polish along with dental x-rays. He 2 teeth removed, 1 molar & 1 premolar. He has a grade 4 out of 6 heart murmur. He was treated for dermatitis with antibiotics. He is microchipped, up to date on his shots including DHLPP, Bordatella, rabies & dewormed. We have spent far more on Miles with bringing him to the US with his travel airfare costs, without anything else then on top of that paying for his medical care & boarding fees, including a dental/scale & polish, shots, microchip etc, than his adoption fee comes close to covering. Miles has not been around cats since being in the rescue but it’s always up to the new family to be responsible with their animals. We have have not had Miles with small children so we do not recommend children, but it’s always up to the family to be responsible with their children & animals. We were not there when Miles was conceived so we do not know who his parents were & it’s always up to the new potential family to look at the pictures & decide what they think his breed is. As with all of our rescues & Miles friends he will need work on potty training & training, so this should be something the new family would be willing to work on & commit to. Please do not submit an application if you are not willing to commit to one of our rescues care for their whole life & that includes if they need training. Please do not email us asking is Miles potty trained or available, nor do we ship dogs anywhere as we will not respond. We would never say anyone of our rescues are potty trained. Our rescues need homes where the people are understanding of their past & what they have been through & what they will need in their daily lives & not willing to give up on them & if they do need training in their new home will in fact take them to training & not just say they will when applying.

Miles has an adoption fee of $795 & is ready for his truly loving forever home & compassion & understanding of what he has been through.

As per usual it seems these days that the call was put out for the need from commercial breeders who needed some of their dogs gone, at a cost of course in the middle of Omaha. Of course they always want money for the dogs & of course once we know about them we are not leaving them & do what we have to do to help them. But despite where they lived & were going to be used to make money off their backs, they are always the most precious bundles of joy. During this same trip we also went to the auction in Missouri & bid on 7 more lives than stop them from continuing being breeding machines. Strawberry’s life was instantly changing in that moment & only for the better. He was one of the very lucky ones. On this day we rescued Strawberry & 13 other baby dolls. 1 of those were possibly his siblings, Mr Banana. Now the real healing, love & devotion could begin & show Strawberry how he is supposed to be loved & adored in a loving forever home just as he is in his foster home. Strawberry, his sibling & his friends were bought back to the WA state where he is now so happy to be here & can’t wait to find his new loving devoted forever home. Strawberry’s foster mum said, Strawberry is the sweetest & so innocent. When he first went into his foster home he did not have a car about anything & it was very clear he had been handled roughly. He would scream out at first at the thought of being picked up. But now, his foster mum taught him to be picked up & ti get love & he loves it’s But he is oh so sweet & cuddly & looks at you with those beautiful tiny eyes. He will wait for his foster mum to pick him up for love. He loves his foster mum & dad. While his foster dad is doing the dishes he will go lay next to him & wait for him to be done. Plus look out when it’s time for food, he is the first one ready to eat. He loves to eat now. At first he was uncertain with a bowel. It was quite evident he was used to food being thrown on the grounds. She said he is such a sweet little guy. The reality is, the foster homes are his real first experience at being in a home, with a tv, bedding he can snuggle up in, a roof over his head that’s not outside. Strawberry is now a wonderful eater. In his foster home he eats clean, meaning fruits, vegetables, grains, proteins & supplements. He is obsessed with his treats. He adores comfy beds & big comfy blankets because again the reality is, this is something he did not get to experience ever until he was rescued. He will also want to sleep in bed with you or with his dogs friends snuggled up. He is now great with his baths & being dried by the hairdryer. At first he was so very uncomfortable thinking something bad was going to happen to him. But not no more. He would still need to be taught to walk on a harness & leash. He is a puppy & we have not taken him out anywhere. He still needs to learn his puppy manners. Strawberry rides in the car well & considering the only times we know of was when he went to be sold & when we got him & brought him back to WA & going home with his foster family & to & from the vets. It’s still all new to him though. We are looking for a crate free home for this little lad only. Strawberry as you can imagine spent the first part of his life in a caged environment. We are also looking for a forever home for Strawberry where someone is home during the day or he can go with her people wherever possibly he can go with them. When they find someone who treats them as they should be treated & loves them they get so attached to them. Strawberry is looking for a forever home who will cherish him & love him as he should be loved & be patient with him & never give up on him. Strawberry has been around many breeds of dogs all shapes & sizes in the rescue & in his foster home & he is currently with other dogs & adores other dogs. He absolutely must go to a forever home with a dog or dog’s present in the home roughly the same size for him to thrive in. Please do not apply saying your neighbors have a dog or family members or you will take him to places where there are other dogs. That will not work, another dog or dogs is mandatory along with a fully fenced backyard. Strawberry is roughly 5 lbs & he is 7 months old & ‭a shi tzu‬.

What he is mixed with we are not sure, male, he is neutered by laser by our wonderful vets, he is microchipped, up to date on his shots, including DHLPP, Bordatella, rabies & been dewormed several times. We have spent far more on Strawberry with paying for him from a commercial breeder. Bringing him to WA with his travel costs, his transportation to WA. All of his medical care in WA & Omaha, food etc & bringing him to WA than his adoption fee comes close to covering. His adoption fee does not even cover half of what we have spent on this little lad. Strawberry has not been around cats since being in the rescue, but it’s always up to the new family to be responsible with their animals together & we have not him around small children so we do do not recommend small children nor cats though & it’s always up to the family to be responsible with their children & cats.

She was shaved down by the breeder to the skin & they usually do this when they are so matted. She is extremely sweet but is very loving & a very cuddly little lady. She lets you pick her up & carried around to see what is going on. In her loving foster home she can’t get enough of being close to the fireplace. Laying near the fireplace & staying warm is something she enjoys. She has discovered where the food is kept & her treats & will try to rummage through things to get to them. She is fostered with one of her friends Oatmeal a bichon who was also a breeding machine & these pair adore each other & came off the same property together. So they find comfort in each other with this big new world they are experiencing together. The reality is, the foster homes are her real first experience at being in a home, with a tv, bedding she can snuggle up in, a roof over her head that’s not outside. Buttermilk is a wonderful eater & is not shy about eating & has not been since the day we got her & rescued her. She adores comfy beds & big comfy blankets because again the reality is, this is something she did not get to experience ever until she was rescued. She currently sleeps with her foster siblings & will want to sleep in bed with you. She is such a sweet girl who just wants to be loved & to make up for her past. She loves everyone & is so very sweet. She is wonderful with being bathed & groomed & good with the hairdryer. She would still need to be taught to walk on a harness & leash but is learning but has slowly learned to walk on a slip lead. Buttermilk rides in the car well & considering the only times we know of was when she went to be released & when we got her & going home & to & from the vets with us. But she does absolutely amazing in the car. We are looking for a crate free home for this little lady only. Buttermilk as you can imagine spent the first part of his life in a caged environment. We are also looking for a forever home for Buttermilk where someone is home during the day or she can go with her people wherever possibly she can go with them. When they find someone who treats them as they should be treated & loves them they get so attached to them. Buttermilk is looking for a forever home who will cherish her & love her as she should be loved & be patient with her & never give up on her. Buttermilk has been around many breeds of dogs all shapes & sizes in the rescue & she is currently with other dogs & adores other dogs in her loving foster home. She absolutely must go to a forever home with a dog or dog’s present in the home for her to thrive in. Please do not apply saying your neighbors have a dog or family members or you will take her to places where there are other dogs. That will not work, another dog or dogs is mandatory along with a fully fenced backyard. Buttermilk is roughly 11 lbs & she is roughly ‭5 years old & a female shi tzu‬. She has put on weight since being in the rescue. What she is mixed with we are not sure, she is spayed by laser by our wonderful vets, she had a major dental with a scale & polish & dental x-rays. One side of her face was so swollen & her mouth was oozing puss from an abscess she had 2 molars & 3 incisors removed. She had an ultrasound to make sure she was not pregnant. She is microchipped, up to date on her shots, including DHPP, leptospirosis, bordatella & dewormed. We have spent far more on Buttermilk with her flight to WA with her travel costs in Omaha. All of her medical care in WA & Omaha etc & bringing her to WA then her adoption fee comes close to covering. Buttermilk has not been around cats since being in the rescue, but it’s always up to the new family to be responsible with their animals together & we have not had her around small children but we do do not recommend small children nor cats though & it’s always up to the family to be responsible with their children & cats. We were not there when Buttermilk was conceived so we do not know who her parents were & it’s always up to the new potential family to look at the pictures & decide what they think her breed is. As with all of our rescues & Buttermilk’s friends & she will need work on potty training & training, so this should be something the new family would be willing to work on & commit to. Please do not submit an application if you are not willing to commit to one of our rescues care for their whole life & that includes if they need training. Please do not email us asking is Buttermilk potty trained or available, nor do we ship dogs anywhere as we will not respond. We would never say anyone of our rescues are potty trained. Our rescues need homes where the people are understanding of their past & what they have been through & what they will need in their daily lives & not willing to give up on them & if they do need training in their new home will in fact take them to training & not just say they will when applying. Please only submit an application if you are truly interested in adopting Buttermilk & going through our process and have read her listing fully to the end & are wanting to adopt. If you are not responsive to our calls, emails or your references do not respond we will move on. Or you waste this rescues time, will remove your application from our system. You must be willing to go through our screening process which includes your references being checked, a phone interview & a virtual home visit via WebEx or Zoom due to covid & followed by a meet & greet & if it’s a good fit, up to our discretion. We will only be accepting applications for Buttermilk who understands her needs & that meet all the requirements for the special sweet little Buttermilk. Once we find the right home for each little soul we work fast, within days so the dogs can go to their forever homes in quite a timely manner. We do not hold onto dogs for people as our goal is to save lives & please do not submit an application if you are not ready to adopt. We also cannot respond to every application unfortunately. Buttermilk has an adoption fee of $1250 & is ready for her truly loving forever home & compassion & understanding of what she has been through.

Web Site: www.aberdeenstr.com ***MUST SUBMIT APPLICATION before we will respond to email or phone inquiries. Thank You for your cooperation*** Please read listings fully to the end before applying for one of our beloved rescues. WE ARE NOT A SHELTER; WE ARE AN ALL-VOLUNTEER RESCUE WITH FULL-TIME JOBS. Please do not contact us to look at a dog. We will contact you once we have reviewed your completed application if we think your home might be a good fit. A reference check, phone interview, and home visit will be completed before meeting an adoptable dog. We work quickly. Please do not submit an application until you are ready to bring a new furry family member home. Expect your references to be contacted shortly after submitting your application. We adopt out to homes in WA state, but require that you are present for the meet and greet in Newcastle, WA. Our adoption fee is non-negotiable. The adoption fee is due on the day of adoption in the form of a check, Zelle, or cash. We no longer accept PayPal because of the percentage they take & their fees but if the potential adopter wants to pay the fees we will accept PayPal. The call was put out for the need from several commercial breeders who needed some of their dogs gone, at a cost of course in the middle of the midwest. Of course once we know about them we are not leaving them & do what we have to do to help them. If we don’t help we know they will end up getting euthanized because the breeders are done with them. These innocent souls lives was instantly changing in that moment & only for the better. They were one of the very lucky ones. On this day we rescued a total 6 lives including Marigold. All Marigold had known was being a breeding machine & making money for this breeder until he was done with her. Now the real healing, love & devotion could begin & show Marigold how she is supposed to be loved & adored in a loving forever home just as they are in their foster home. Marigold & her friends were bought back to the WA state where she is now is so happy to be here & can’t wait to find her new loving devoted forever home. This sweet girl has seen a lot of things, it’s very clear of that. We could tell originally she was just grabbed to breed but now she has gotten used to her foster home picking her up & not worrying about what they are going to do to her. She is a very sweet girl her foster dad & mum said & she is good with both of them. She quite an aloof little lady too they said. Not a care in the world or a mean bone in her little body. They said she is the type of dog you don’t know she is even there. They did say she likes to rest her head on her dog siblings. The reality is, the foster homes are her real first experience at being in a home, with a tv, bedding she can snuggle up in, a roof over her head that’s not outside. Marigold is now a wonderful eater & was uncertain at first as the food she was fed was of the poorest quality & they get used to eating it. In her foster home she now eats clean meaning, raw fruits, vegetables, proteins, grains & supplements. Now she is not shy about eating & a great eater. She will ever share out of her bowl. She adores comfy beds & big comfy blankets because again the reality is, this is something she did not get to experience ever until she was rescued. She currently sleeps with her foster siblings & may want to sleep in bed with you. She is such a sweet girl who just wants to be loved & to make up for her past. She is wonderful with being bathed & groomed & good with the hairdryer. When she arrived she had staining around her feet from urine & it appeared around her mouth. We have been trying to remove it but it takes time. We have also discovered she loves a good outfit. She would still need to be taught to walk on a harness & leash but is learning but has slowly learned to walk on a slip lead. Marigold rides in the car well & considering the only times we know of was when she went to be released & when we got her & going home & to & from the vets with us.

Miso is an incredibly sweet boy with some issues. He was approximately 7 or 8 when I adopted him from the shelter, and he's now about 9 or 10. I love him to pieces, but behavioral issues in apartment living after some changes in my circumstances as well as some upcoming medical bills that I cannot afford mean I am forced to find a new home for my sweet son. As I said, Miso is from the shelter, and his background before that is unknown but doesn't seem to have been good - he very much does not get along well with other dogs, so he would demand to be the only pet. He takes a long time to warm up to people, but becomes very strongly attached and socially anxious - despite my attempts to train him, he barks nonstop when I leave the apartment, leading to seriously bothering the neighbors. For this reason, he definitely would do best in a home where someone is usually home to keep him company. He also needs multiple teeth pulled, which I cannot afford.

* Thank you for your interest in adopting a dog from Little Dog Rescue. Our dogs come from a variety of sources and backgrounds. They are all in need of adopters that have patience, an understanding of where these dogs have come from, and that there will be an adjustment time when they transition into their forever home. This can include learning basic commands, walking on leash and potty training. Some dogs will pick up on your routine and expectations faster than others. Potty accidents will happen. We find that positive reinforcement, consistency, and routine from the adopter achieves the best results. We are a small, all volunteers team and give 100% of our efforts towards doing right by these pups. We are often juggling many responsibilities at the same time and do our very best to process inquiries and applications in a timely manner. We do prioritize inquiries that have a submitted application on file through the Little Dog Rescue website. We do our best to accurately assign breed designations, however we are unable to guarantee 100% accuracy. Sometimes we only have the dogs appearance to go on. Our adoption fees are thoughtfully considered. The adoption fee is not a purchase price for the dog. It is a fee that is designed to support the overall work of our rescue. Highly desirable dogs and puppies are intentionally listed with a higher adoption fee. This is done to help offset the enormous medical expenses we incur when taking in older pups and special needs medical dogs whose adoption fees do not come close to covering their expenses. In addition, the vast majority of our dogs are brought in from out of state and incur transport fees along with their medical and acquisition costs. We ask that you take all of these things into consideration, and we look forward to finding a great match for your family.

Click the button to download the adoption application. The application is a form-fillable pdf. Fill out the form, save it to your hard drive, then email back to sian@gingerspetrescue.org Hi!!  My name is Poppy from Korea and I am a wonderful approx. 5 year old female Papillon - Chihuahua mix.  I weigh about 9 lbs. and hoping to find a forever home.  I am friendly and was saved from an illegal Breeding Farm in South Korea.  I was rescued with many others by local activists from the horrific conditions we were in.  I fought to survive every day and was so badly neglected.  Korea kills an estimated 1.5 -2 million dogs a year to be eaten.  I just want a chance to be part of a family and for someone to love and care for me.  I am so lucky to get a one-way ticket to Seattle to find my new family.  Take me on car rides, walks in the park and I will become your best friend.  I get along well with people of all ages, gentle kids, and other dogs.  I will do best with a loving family that can give me lots of love and affection!  On all overseas adoption, we highly recommend our pet rescue dog trainer who will come to your home and help train your new pup.  My adoption fee of $1,395 will cover my spay/neuter, DA2PP shots, Rabies, Bordetella, Deworm, Heart Worm Test, Microchip, Boarding Fees, Health Certificate and airline transport cost from Korea to Seattle.  A GPS tracker or Apple AirTag is required for all adopted dogs. You can bring your own when adopting or you can purchase an AirTag from us.  The adoption fee is firm and helps save the life of another dog needing rescue and our other dogs in need of medical care.  We do not guarantee the breed and age of the dogs.  Donations are always appreciated to help pay down our vet bills at Greenwood Vet.  Ginger's Pet Rescue is a non-profit 501C-3 organization.  The adoption fee is donated to the rescue and is tax deductible.  Please e-mail at  admin@gingerspetrescue.org  for an adoption application.     April 19, 2024, 1:21 am
