Last Update 11/01/2025

We have numerous dogs at various phases of intake. They will be added once vetting is complete.

Our dogs have been fully vetted prior to becoming available for adoption. We treat all issues presented at the time of intake; full blood panels, dentals(if required), vaccinations, spayed/neutered and we microchip the dogs as well. We share all the health and life details that we have with adoptees in addition to being available to address any questions or concerns after adoption.

Ariel – Cottage Grove, WI

Ariel is a darling, petite Maltese (or Maltese mix), about 5 years old, and 5.5 pounds of pure charm. This little lady is bursting with energy and intelligence! Sometimes she’s in the middle of the action; other times, she’s happy just curled up in your lap.
An Indoor Star: Ariel is looking for a special home that will appreciate her preference for staying warm and cozy inside. She is a mostly pad-trained pro, and continually improving as she gets to know her environment. She’s not a fan of going outside. If you’re looking for a companion who enjoys her exercise indoors, and likes snuggles over long walks, Ariel is your girl.
Social and Smart: She is confident and resilient, and despite being new to her foster pack, she eagerly did her best to fit right in. She likes the occasional game of chase, and has bursts of zoomies. We think Ariel would thrive with other friendly dogs, or be content as the center of attention in a one-dog home.
​Though she is particular about her menu, she eats well, and has put on half a pound in the past three weeks!
​Miss Ariel is a smart little cutie, ready to steal your heart and light up your home with her unique sparkle.

All of our dogs have had complete physical/medical exam. Treated for any issues presented, vaccinated, spayed/neutered as well as being micro-chipped.

This lovely girl has a laid-back, gentle personality. She enjoys lounging around and taking it easy but will happily play with a toy or two when the mood strikes.

Bing – Fremont, WI

Bing was an owner surrender, a situation where he was too young for his senior owner. He is approximately 1 1/2 years old and about 13 pounds. He is playful with everyone in his foster home, dogs and the cat enjoying playing with little Bing.

Bing is house trained and crate trained. When the foster family is out/or at work Bing will gladly go into his crate with a treat. He does enjoy running zoomies in the yard, so a fenced in yard would be ideal. He also likes playing with toys and chewing on bully sticks.

He is loving and will cuddle with you or nap on your lap. At night I sleep with my foster parents and love to just snuggle in all night.

If you are looking for a snuggly fun guy- Bing is right here.

All of our dogs have had complete physical/medical exam. Treated for any issues presented, vaccinated, spayed/neutered as well as being micro-chipped.

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.
