Ritchie loves to go for rides in the car and getting him out of the car can be a problem. He would always need to have a leash hanging so you could maneuver him. Getting out of a car is more than he can tolerate, he wants to ride into eternity, he loves it so much. We are looking for a home for Ritchie with an older couple or single person that might have had a dog like him before and knows how best to take care of him.

Contact us for an application on Ritchie, he will be a wonderful pet in the right home. He needs a forever home this time. He is neutered, and up to date on shots and has very good teeth. We are offering a senior discount for this particular dog.

Beyonce lived in a cage all her life so everything is new to her. She has to learn to walk on a leash, step on grass and live in a house. She has to learn that she can walk around free. She is not a biter. Her adoption fee is a $250 donation to our rescue medical fund and an approved application. Beyonce and Bonjovi are bonded to each other and we would like to find a home for them together.

Willie is getting friendlier every day that he is here. He is a bit shy but not a biter. We groomed him and he was no trouble at all. He is getting use to being handled, quicker than I thought he would. He is about 7 lbs, very small for a shihtzu. He is a solid gold color.

We are housebreaking Willie to newspaper. We are hoping to find someone to adopt him that might be able to have his eyes checked and if possible, have the sight in one of them restored. He could live another ten years and it would be nice if he could see again. It was no doubt neglect that cost him his vision.

Most important we need to find Willie a home where he will get attention and lots of love. He enjoys being talked to and he is learning his way around here. Willie needs about $200 for a trip to the eye specialist to determine if any of his sight can be restored. If you wish to help him, contact us.

Update, 11/1/05: Willie is coming around fine, he is pretty well papertrained and will allow me to hold him. He is getting around but sticking close to his open crate for security.

Nellie came to our rescue from a commercial kennel where she has lived her entire life in a cage. She is being papertrained. She will be spayed, have a dental and be up to date on shots before going to her new home. She is sweet, not a biter but fearful. She suffers from a lack of socialization so it will take her some time to get use to living in a home with people. Her adoption fee is a $250 donation to our rescue medical fund and an approved application.

Shihtzus require regular grooming. As far as personality, you usually cannot find a dog better equipped to live with humans. She is being papertrained. They were bred to be companions only and they love their caretakers. Tootsie's adoption fee is a $250 donation to our rescue medical fund.
