        Parker – Racine, WI

        Parker is a sweet little mixed boy, approximately 6 years old. He is quiet and calm and loves to snuggle up to you whenever you are ready.

        He sleeps on the bed, but politely stays curled up near my feet. Due to his small stature and quiet disposition, he would thrive in a home with adults. While he gets along with the other dogs/cats in his foster home, he would do well in a home with other middle aged/senior dog(s).

        He may require additional potty training, he does go outside, however, there has been the occasional accident indoors. The foster family uses belly bands to address that issue.

        Cuddling up with Parker is a gift, he is well behaved and so loving. With fall around the corner, he would be a great fit with that favorite blanket on those fall windy days.

              Timmy is a 4 month old Maltese mix; DOB 3/31/25. He weighs approximately 4 pounds. The foster is still working on his potty training, however he keeps his crate clean overnight. He seems to enjoy & trust everyone he meets. He would do well with a playmate but would do well as an only dog. Due to his size he is not appropriate for households that have young children or large dogs.

                    When our dogs are ready for adoption, our foster parents have had time to evaluate them and determine their needs for a new home. We have created an Adoption Process that will ensure a smooth and safe transition from our rescue to your family. Our top priority is ensuring our Maltese go to the best possible forever home.
