Mae's Story
12/2/23: Foster to Adopt Homes Needed! Marley and Mae are a comical pair of little Shih Tzu/ Maltese siblings that came to us from KY when their owner could no longer care for them. We had them groomed and vetted before their arrival since they were pretty heavily matted and they are taking some time to settle in now. We are not sure if they will need placement together as we haven't separated them yet but we'll post more information as we are made aware. With our foster to adopt program, it will be the perfect chance to get to know Sissy and have time for her to settle in prior to adopting. Due to their current age, size and personality, foster to adopt requirements are: -Living within 80 miles of Adams, NY so they can get their continued care at our vet until they are officially adopted. -Having previous/current pets in annually at a local veterinary office and up to date on vaccines as well as spay/neutered. -Due to their current size and disposition, we are looking for homes with children over 12 years old. -Willing to have current dogs/family members come to a meet and greet to meet the pet and be sure an acceptable match. -Having time available to care for, socialize and start training of a new pet. -Preference will be given to homes with previous dog experience. -Having a fenced yard is definitely a plus. Fostering is free and vetting is provided by the rescue. She has been examined, vaccinated, spayed, microchipped and started on flea/tick and heartworm preventative. If choosing to adopt our small dog adoption fee is $400 each, due when being officially adopted. Please help us to continue helping those that knock on our doors!
