Adopted!
Jolly
2 years White Maltipoo Meet Jolly, our two-year-old Maltipoo. This handsome fellow has but one holiday wish…to bring joy and happiness to some lucky family now and forever. A bit shy at first, Jolly quickly warms to anyone who shows him loving kindness. In return, he gives the gentlest of kisses. You may notice that sweet Jolly has only his right eye. We don’t know what happened, but he was found on the streets with a severely damaged left eye and a mandibular fracture. The eye was removed, and our surgeon said the fracture will heal on his own. It certainly doesn’t seem to bother him. He loves to eat and does so without any trouble. Jolly is neutered, microchipped, and current on his vaccines. More importantly, he is patiently waiting for his new forever family. Might that be you?

Jingles

One look at that sweet face framed by those gorgeous locks, and you’ll be smitten. She will be the perfect companion for any family as she loves people of all sizes and ages. At 4-5 years old, Jingles is old enough to have left puppyhood behind but young enough to provide you with many years of cuddly love. She weighs 13 pounds and enjoys long walks or just hanging out. Jingles is spayed, microchipped, and current on all vaccines. Well, what are you waiting for? Come grab this catchy beauty before someone else can’t get her out of their mind!

Adopted!
Andrew
5 years White and beige Maltipoo Meet one of the sweetest, happiest dogs we’ve ever had. This is Andrew, a 5-year-old lad who weighs 17 pounds. Andrew was found on the streets, matted and dirty, but just look at him now! Handsome with the softest coat and a tail that never stops wagging…and all in spite of the facts that he is blind and has severe dry eye. We are treating the dry eye, which will require medication for life. …and the blindness? Well, it doesn’t stop Andrew. He’s learning to navigate the world and enjoying every minute of it. Andrew is microchipped and current on his vaccines. He will be neutered, as part of his adoption, once the ophthalmologist gives the okay. In the meantime, Andrew is looking forward to filling someone’s life with love and happiness!

Tex
6 years old, Red Merle Australian Shepherd Tex is a handsome six-year-old red-merle Australian Shepherd who is making his return to Perfect Pet Rescue after five years of living with a beautiful family. They are sad to be seeking a new home for their sweet boy, but it is now necessary. Tex is a well-trained dog, but his herding instinct is more robust than his training. His natural instinct has him herding the toddler around the house. Tex herds children at his eye level who move or run, but he can live happily with older/taller children and adults. He is very affectionate and loves to be petted and close to people. He is truly a wonderful dog who will fill any home with his exuberance and happiness. Unfortunately, he is not suited for a dog park but enjoys walks and hikes where he does not have to be confronted by other dogs. Sweet Tex loves taller folk, but after being attacked by two large breed dogs, he’s had a difficult time with dogs ever since. It’d be best for him to be in a home as the only dog. Tex is a Perfect Pet in every way but needs a home with a family experienced with Aussies and herding breeds. Tex is a beautiful dog, eager to trade his love with an equally loving family. To be considered as a possible adoptee for excellent Tex, please get in touch with Perfect Pet Rescue: https://www.perfectpetrescue.com
