Story
Foster Homes Needed! Do you have time and room in your life for a foster dog? http://www.muttloverescue.org/foster.html *****************   Chihuahua Mix Male (neutered) - Adult Looking for that smart, funny guy that can go anywhere and considers new adventures the very best thing in life?  Just pick up a leash and Ace starts dancing around ready to roll. And speaking of rolling, rolling around on the couch or in bed is probably his second most favorite thing to do.  So expect to share both with him and expect to laugh. Treats can also be used to persuade him in to learning cute tricks and are expected when he heads to his crate because that's what a good boy does. Want a dance partner, Ace is your guy. He can do the best little hind leg twirling. He also does love to give soft kisses and snuggles and his coat is so soft, who wouldn't want to snuggle with him. He also watches and is incredibly smart, he may think he is a bit human too.  Ace is a 2-3 years old chihuahua/spitz mix who is fully vetted. Crate trained but not his favorite thing and remember the treat. Potty trained, set ground rules about marking when he enters his new environment and he is smart so knows its not allowed. He has a voice and is not a barker but probably not the best for an apartment. Ace is good with canine family members (a little loud when he plays).  Cats are ok too.  **BECAUSE OF OUR REQUIREMENT FOR A HOME VISIT, WE ARE ONLY ABLE TO ADOPT TO HOMES IN THE NORTHERN VA / MARYLAND / DC METRO AREA** We have adoption events EVERY SATURDAY from 12-3 p.m. Please note that not all dogs can attend every event, so if you are interested in meeting a particular dog, please complete a no-obligation application on our website at http://www.muttloverescue.org/application.html OR write to adopt@muttloverescue.org.

Story
Zuri Yorkie/Poo Female Grey/Blonde 9 years old 8 lbs Meet Zuri! Zuri is a calm, affectionate senior girl who truly shines when she’s with her people. She forms close bonds with those she loves and enjoys being nearby, quietly following you from room to room when she’s awake, then settling in for her daily naps. Zuri is well-mannered, housetrained, and low energy, making her an easy and pleasant companion to have around the home. She may take some time getting used to a new home and lacks the constant energy of a puppy, but she enjoys leisurely walks and is always happy to cuddle up for some quality snuggle time. Zuri is not reactive to other dogs and rarely ever barks. With her gentle nature and loyal heart, Zuri would make a devoted companion and a perfect snuggle buddy for someone seeking a loving, easygoing friend. Please Note: **No children under 10!** ​ If you are interested in adopting ZURI, please go to our website www.somersetcottagepoodlerescue.org to see our adoption process and download the adoption application, ​ Zuri's adoption donation is $595

Story
Introducing, Tiny! Tiny was surrendered to a rural shelter after her owner had to go into assisted living. Her owner loved her but never took her outside or picked her up. Because of her limited experiences, Tiny is very comfortable being an indoor pup, but new experiences scare her. Tiny is 2 years old and 12 lbs. She is great with other dogs and ignores cats. She is VERY pee pad trained and is learning how to walk on leash and potty outside. Tiny is shy at first, but once she warms up, she is a lap lover, toy obsessed, playful silly girl! Tiny would do best in a chihuahua experienced, adult only (or older children) home with another confident dog. Interested in learning more about Tiny? Apply at www.novapetsalive.org/adopt *Tiny is spayed, up to date on vaccines, was given dewormer and monthly preventatives, and is microchipped.
