Indian Girl is an incredible little mom! She came to us with two of her pups who were crossed with a
Shih Tzu. We have two other younger pups here and she is taking care of them, too! She is happy when not
crated since she has spent a lot of her life in kennels. We thought she would be a spinner but has stopped that
since we do not crate her at all.

Pierre
Male, adult, Miniature Poodle
Pierre had a rough start in life. He found himself in a local shelter, fur so long it looked like dreadlocks.
Workers at the shelter clipped his fur and found a beautiful little fellow underneath all that mess. They
delivered him to our vet to be checked out. He got a clean bill of health and his shots have been updated.
Soon to be neutered, we think he is ready to go to a loving home. Pierre is a work-in-progress who has learned to sleep
in a crate overnight and uses the doggie door. He is playful and happy, in spite of his previous condition.

Prince Harry

She has been spayed and was updated on shots March 20, 2009. She is smart, obedient, adaptable and eager to
please; walks well on a leash; uses a dog door; and is crate-trained (happily and quietly sleeping in a wire
cage at night, though undoubtedly could be convinced to switch to the master’s/mistress’s bed, if desired!).

Cassy and Tippy
Female, adult, Lhasa Apso
These little girls are so sweet and have been very well cared for.
They have been house dogs, use a dog door and are house broken.
The previous owner is really hoping that they can be placed together since they are sisters and have never been apart.
They supposedly have never been around other dogs either, but are assimilating into the foster home's crew just fine.
They love to cuddle, have no problem being picked up, love lots of attention and so far haven't snapped at anyone or anything
(however they do growl at cats).

romping with the other foster pups. They use the doggie door and play well with others. What they would like
most is to have a home where they could stay together. They are very bonded!

Baxter
Male, adult, Sable Sheltie
Baxter was found as a stray, matted with patchy hair! He has always been a sweetie, although at times a little too
curious about the pussy cat in his foster home! He has some skin allergies that his foster
parents have been dealing with, and his hair has grown back. He is active and loving and perhaps not as
old as we first thought.

and isn't too shy to beg for treats! Doggie door and crate trained! We hope that some family will see

Ginger
Female, adult, Chihuahua X

Marty
Male, juvenile, Chinese Crested
Marty is quite the pup! He plays well with other animals - yes, even cats - and is very smart.
He uses the doggie door and sleeps in a crate overnight. He has a super sweet temperament and l
ikes to snuggle and cuddle. Marty would make a great addition to a family with kids (not tiny ones!). He is very
sturdy for a Chinese Crested as he is the Cobby body type and loves to romp and play. He truly
is the perfect dog and is even hypoallergenic. Because he is a hairless he should not be left
outside for long periods of time but we believe most dogs should not be!

Fuzzy
Female, adult, Chinese Crested X or Chihuahua X
Fuzzy was left at a local facility. She is an adorable and tiny little girl whose coat is nearly the opposite
of a Chinese Crested. Where they have fur, she does not, and where they don't have hair,
she does! She is a sweetheart who really needs a quiet and loving home. Her fur is starting to
fill in, perhaps due to better nutrition. No small children for this little one!

Aloha
Female, adult, Chihuahua X
This little girl is sweet! She weighs about 11 lbs, Chihuahua maybe Parsons
Russell terrier cross about 2 to 3 years old. She likes to sleep above the
covers and sometimes under the pillow! She will not lick your face, buy she'll
take kisses from you and half close her eyes. She won't give kisses - maybe she
got in trouble for that. She loves to be held and cuddled. She has adjusted
well with other animals, however, sometimes she'll give the cat a run for his
money! He's lucky that she can't jump on a stool or a window sill! She would do
well in a adult home with no small children. She had a cherry eye that has been
fixed. She will use the doggie door but doesn't know how to ask to go out.
She'll just stand at the door until you notice her. She likes to stay close to
you. Loves to be carried around, or she'll follow you. Wherever you are, she
is! She really doesn't bug you about being held but if you're sitting watching
TV, she'll be in your lap. She's good about sharing your lap, too, and doesn't
get snappy if another dog, or even the nasty cat, is there! Hopefully someone
with room in their heart and lap could find a place for her!

Princess
Female, adult, Terrier X
Princess and another little dog, Pork Chop, were both released by their former
owner who could no longer keep them. She is a cute little girl who has turned into a real cuddler!
She likes to sleep in bed with you at night and is ready to go if you shake your keys! She will sleep
in a crate but prefers to sleep in your bed! Princess is a quiet and loving little girl who deserves
a chance to be with a loving family.
