I love my people and hope for all the attention I was deprived of before. I’m ready to make up for lost time with plenty of cuddles, playtime and fun!

So if you’re up for laughter, adventure and lots of good times, look no further. Here I am!

I’m Lucille, and I’m ready to bring a little more happiness, a lot more love and plenty of life’s cherry-on-top moments into your home! ❤️

Found in WV trying to get into a nearby home and having to foraging for food in trash cans, I was just about starving and longed for human attention! I also had a “Bald Rear End" (aka a skin condition). I followed a dog walker home certain I had found a friend.. sadly, because of my breed, he initially was intimidated. “A loose bully?” YIKES! But with my "Over the Top" friendly and playful demeanor, it took a minute to show him I was a “Good Old Boy” at heart.

Taken to the shelter, I got food and skin testing done. Guess what? Skin scrapings was NEGATIVE, just uncared for allergies while out n about starving.

On the mend now, looking better every day, I’ve shown I’m good with other dogs, (can be cat tested if needed). I do run and play chase, but I'm a little dopier than other’s my age.. I’m more of a “Lope along kind a guy”! I’ve got a gentle demeaner, take treats nicely and am great in a car.

SUPER friendly with people, I really can be hugged and cuddled, but have yet to meet little kids, so that’s an unknown.

I’m truly a “diamond” just waiting to shine.. just need someone to call my own, give me a chance and a warm someone to snuggle up for loving this winter. Could that be with you?

My story didn't start out all sunshine and tail wags, ya see I was found wanderin as a stray in WV and ended up in a High Kill Shelter. The shelter folks coudn't fur the life of em figure out why nobody came looking, I mean "SOMEONE" must ta loved me once! I was taught ta sit and take treat "OH, SO GENTLY!" Ya'd think a handsome hunk like me woulda been a keeper!

Molly's Place got word, took one look and I was a DONE DEAL! Punched my ticket to PA. Having passed the "CAT TEST at the pound, I've also shown ta be good with other doggies in play. Humans? Oh boy, I love, Love, LOVE their attention fur sure. Now I gotta be honest, I'm still a youngin... have puppy energy, so little kiddos may accidentally get bowled over with my enthusiasm, so best older kiddos fur me!

So that's my scoop, I'm a handsome, fun-lovin, zoomie powered boy who does settle down for Loving with their person! If that sound like a match, get your applications in.

Chew toys are important to him. He takes them all to his bed, along with the older dog’s worn-out stuffed animals. And you might find that he hoarded a sock in there! He likes small toys, including Kongs and hardened bones. Sometimes he runs circles around the house, throws and chases the Kong, even engages old Sami in a bit of fun chasing. He does object to her taking his bone, rightfully so. He explores the back yard more every day and likes to be outside. When he’s done playing and running, he naps!

Nick quickly learned to go for walks with and without the other dog and adapted well to wearing a harness.

He hasn’t been timid when meeting my young granddaughter and the neighbors: he went right up to them to be petted. He loves affection and gives it back. So far, he appears to be house trained, but it’s only been three days, as I write this, so no guarantees. He easily accepts being in his crate when I leave the house.

This little guy could be an only dog with people who will give him lots of attention and play with him, or he could live with other friendly dogs and cats. Children should probably be 10 years and older, due to his size.

From abandoned to treasured, Nicolas is ready for his new start! Our southern shelter partner witnessed Nicolas being left in a crate, inside a dog park in front of the shelter after hours. Thank goodness a volunteer was there to witness this happening, otherwise Nicolas would have spent the night terrified and alone in a crate outside. Fortunately, he was quickly secured and brought to the safety of a local foster home!

Nicolas is 3-years old and weighs around 11 lbs. He is a shy but friendly little guy who gets comfort from humans, dogs, and cats alike! In his SC foster home, he actually befriended an indoor pig and was often caught cuddling on a dog bed with his swine bestie. Nicolas has super soft fur and doesn't shed much, but we'll never promise that he's "hypoallergenic" since we don't know for sure what he's mixed with. Nicolas would love a home with a friendly dog or cat in residence to help show him the ropes and give him confidence, but he might do okay as the only dog too, as long as his humans are patient and give him time and space to flourish.

To adopt Nicolas, please apply on our website! https://www.nirvanaanimalrescue.org/adoption-application

Please note we cannot guarantee the age or breed of any of our dogs. All of our dogs are working on their crate and house training.

Nicolas' adoption fee is $350, which covers his neuter, vaccines, 4dx test, and monthly flea/tick and heartworm prevention.

Mackie is 3 years old and weighs 6 lbs. He is a super chill, easy-going little guy. He is shy at first with new people and dogs but makes friends after a few minutes! Like your typical chihuahua, he bonds quickly and fiercely to his people and is the stereotypical lap dog. Mackie has met cats and been unphased by them, even ignoring one who hissed loudly in his face. He's met several dogs and loves ones who are his size and on the gentle side like him! He's not a fan of the crate and would much rather be with you, touching you, on you, etc. He's done well with pottying outside but does mark inside, so he wears a belly band currently. Once he's neutered on Oct 27, this behavior should significantly decrease or cease entirely! Due to his small and delicate size, he will not be placed with children under 10 years old.

Mackie will be neutered on October 27 and ready to join his forever family then. To adopt Mackie, please apply on our website! https://www.nirvanaanimalrescue.org/adoption-application

Please note we cannot guarantee the age or breed of any of our dogs. All of our dogs are working on their crate and house training.

Mackie's adoption fee is $350, which includes his neuter, vaccines, microchip, and monthly flea/tick and heartworm prevention.

Turned into the shelter being tagged not good with kids as an issue, the shelter staff and Molly's Place can't figure out why... It's been tried to pull my tail, ears, lips and feet but I never ever reacted. I'm just saying my old family "Fibbed" but I'm sharing it just because... Heck, they even tried to bear huging me with no reaction what so ever... Not even a flinch. After a whole lot'a pull'n, prod'n and get'n no reaction, they finally gave up try'n ta figure it out. After all that drama, the shelter was run'n out of space for doggo's like me, so I was loaded on transport on my way to a better place, Molly's Place!

The truth of it is, I'm beyond sweet! I'm good with people, love other dogs and could be acclimated with cats. I walk great on leash, take treats gently and know basic commands like sit and down. I'm also very handsome and photogenic even if I do say so myself.

So if ya want a sweet good looking boy with lots of potential and mega personality, than look no further cause I'm you guy. I'll be there when ya call and ready to snuggle... Hurry up and get an application in!

Of course, she still absolutely enjoys being a lap dog and soaking up attention. But she’s also discovered that walking around is pretty fun—and she’d be perfectly happy tagging along as your little hiking buddy. And when something suspicious happens? She’ll be right there on guard duty, ready to make sure everyone knows she takes her job VERY seriously.

She’s a wonderful little companion who does well with respectful children over 8, other dogs, and cats. She has the perfect mix of cuddly companion, adventurous sidekick, and pint-sized security system.

So if you’re looking for a dog who can
snuggle on the couch, hit the trails, and protect the household from absolutely nothing in particular
, this girl has you covered!

He thrives with other small dogs his age to play with and show him the ropes. Kai will attach to his adult people once he trust you and that involves giving him some space to figure things out, providing him a crate for security, and understanding he will come around in his own time. Kai is a comical, affectionate boy once he settles in, does well in a dog carrier for car rides, is house trained to use pee pads or potty outside, and is doing well learning how to be a dog now. Kai is on anxiety medication that have literally saved his life, allowed him to break barriers, and be a dog again. These medications should be continued for life for his physical and mental health. Kai would not be a good match to live full time with children, but visits and short exposure would be okay with supervision. This little guy will need time to settle into a new home, space, and patience from a new family, but once he does, he will bring joy to a new home.
To adopt Kai, please complete an adoption application at peacelovepoms.rescuegroups.org. The $350 adoption donation ($250 for senior citizens 65+) includes core vaccines (Rabies, Parvo/Distemper,and Bordatella), Accuplex (Heart worm and Lyme test), fecal, microchip, bloodwork, neuter, dental, and all the love you can handle!
