When people say, 'I couldn't foster because it would be to hard to give a dog up' We say 'How can it be harder than knowing a dog died because no foster home stepped up?' and that's why we do it time and time again.
A Dog's Prayer: "Treat me kindly, my beloved friend, for no heart in the entire world is more grateful for your kindness than mine. Don't be angry with me for long, and don't lock me up as punishment. After all, you have your job, your friends and your entertainment. I only have you."

Nutmeg 'Meg'

Day 1 - hours after arriving
Nutmeg 'Meg' is approx. 2-5 years old and hails from Louisiana.  She is a chihuahua/rat terrier according to her vet records, which would explain her 'larger' size. We currently have Nutmeg on a restricted and scheduled diet and she does appear to have lost a bit of weight.  She was a stray that was possibly abused.  Meg is one of the sweetest dogs you'll meet!  Very submissive and quiet.  She tries very hard to overcome her fears, so she will need to build confidence and trust humans.  Meg is good with cats, dogs and children.  Meg will need a  home that is calm and quiet due to her fears.  Children 16 and over only.   She is not yet completely house trained, so that is still a work in progress, but she's coming along really nicely.  A dog experienced home with the patience would be a plus for this sweet girl.  She will need a home with a FULLY fenced and SECURE yard because she is still prone to startling easily and could run, therefore is a potential flight risk.   Meg is also suited for apartment living given that she's a quiet dog.


'Meg'knows that her most perfect home is out there somewhere looking for her, they are still waiting to discover her!
