Story
Meet Prince! This adorable 9-month-old, 12-pound Yorkie was surrendered to us along with his buddy King when their owner became pregnant. Prince is a bright, lively little guy who has been doing great at the rescue and winning everyone over with his sweet personality. He’s potty trained, friendly with other dogs, and loving with all people. Prince is energetic and playful—always ready for fun, zoomies, or a good toy session! He’s already cute as can be, and he’ll look even more irresistible after one of our amazing grooming partners donates her time to help brush out his mats. Prince is joyful, affectionate, and ready to bring lots of love and entertainment to his forever home.

Starsky

Yorkie, Yorkshire Terrier

Male, Senior
Des Moines, IA
Size
(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less
Details
Needs special attention, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
First thing first, Starsky has a tumor on his head that is growing very slowly that I cannot pay for to remove. Starsky was originally a stray that was in pretty bad condition (he had a dingy rope around his neck and was overheating). That was 5-7 years ago when I first brought him home. Starsky used to keep running away whenever we opened the door but then we neutered him and he doesn’t run out anymore (not to say he won’t need house training again). Starsky is listed as 14 years old but again he is a stray so he could be any age. Starsky has grey hairs. Starsky has very bad teeth because he doesn’t let me brush his teeth ever (and his nails have never been cut). Starsky does not like being picked up (Starsky still has the stray mentality that we never got to rehabilitate). Starsky often shakes a lot out of nervousness. All that being said Starsky still is a good dog with happy times and has been around a lot of people and has gone on lots of walks. Needs lots of work but is worth it.

Popcorn prev Mellow SP

Maltese Shih Tzu

Male, 15 yrs 1 mo
Clive, IA
Size
(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less
Details
Good with dogs, Needs special attention, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Popcorn is about 18 lbs., 15 years old and according to Google lens, a West highland terrier. Animal Care Services thought he was a Maltese mix and foster mom thinks he could be a Schnauzer/Maltese mix but knows for sure that he is the cutest scruffy EVER! His journey hasn't been all snuggles and treats as he lived on someone's apartment patio for years, lying in poop, grass and other debris until Animal Care Services came for him and God's Dogs Rescue was able to save the little scamp. While he still loves his humans, other gentle pups his size (cats unknown) and his squishy toys and chewy, understandably he has a few emotional scars especially regarding vet visits and grooming. Slow, patient progress in these areas has helped him be more confident, but will need a patient adopter to help him adapt. Things that make Popcorn super happy are spending time with his humans after he gets to know them, car rides and walks in the park. He loves, loves his squishy toys and generally carries one around with him. His most favorite game is for his person to chase him and pretend to take his squishy away. He also like to run zooms and if there isn't a person to play with he will often throw his toys for himself. Doesn't that just make you want to throw his stuffies so he can play?? He's a healthy guy for his age with just a few old man issues (beginnings of cataracts) that he takes supplements for and should continue taking. His liver enzymes were high when tested but he is on a med to help them normalize. Can you give this boy the right lap to live in?? He needs very patient/knowledgeable adopters, no children- adult only because he will bite if afraid... It is a work in progress but he is becoming the goofy boy he was meant to be while living on the nasty hot and freezing porch for most of his 14 yrs :( GIVE HIM A CHANCE!!! Local adoption only $200 (in TX)
