Story
Meet Cleo! This 5 year old min pin mix is about 12 pounds and absolutely beautiful!! She is also a little escape artist and escaped for several weeks! Since she’s been back in our care she’s been super shy and scared! She’s started to warm up some but she definitely prefers everything on her terms! She likes her own little space and loves her crate! She’s potty pad trained and loves treats and to eat She’s not big on being picked up or held but once she trusts she will let you pet her head. She is great for someone who has time and patience to let her warm up on her own timing! She’s a super easy to take care of gal in that she just wants her food, cozy crate, and needs her potty pad! If you are willing to let her warm up on her terms and give her space she’s your girl! Apply online or email russellrescuetn@gmail.com if already approved Cleo came from a hoarding situation where there were about 20 dogs. Some of the other dogs we have gotten from there have been pretty shy and scared at first, but have warmed up fairly quickly. She is very shy and scared If you would like to help one of these sweet babies, please apply online or email russellrescuetn@gmail.com if already approvedMay 28, 2025, 2:12 am

Story
Meet Toto!!Sweet, shy Toto is looking for his forever home! We don't know much about his past but it's safe to say he did not have a lot of human interaction. He's been with me a few months now and has come such a long way! He gets along well with all my other dogs. He loves to be outside so a fenced in yard is ideal. He has been fully vetted and housebroken. Yay! We are working on leash training. It will take him a bit to warm up to strangers so please have patience. We are guessing that he is around 5 or 6 years old. He appears to be a terrier (possibly border terrier) mix. He has the cutest little underbite and Justin Bieber hair! I'm guessing he is around 14 pounds.If you’d like to make him part of your forever home, please apply online or email russellrescuetn@gmail.com if already approvedSweet, shy Toto is looking for his forever home!
