Story
Introducing MURPHY!✨ Murphy has got it ALL going on! With stunning looks, charm, and fierce loyalty, there’s not much more one could ask for in a four-legged companion. Did we mention he’s EXTREMELY housetrained, gets on with dogs of all sizes, and has impeccable leash manners? He’s pretty close to perfection if we do say so ourselves. At 2 1/2 years old (his birthday is September 11), Murphy recently rejoined the rescue after he was adopted as a puppy during the pandemic. Like most puppies who were adopted then, he had only been exposed to the people in his home, so when it came time for him to meet new people, Murphy didn’t know how to react. . His family felt it was best if he came back to Posh, so here he is. He’s been making new human friends and doing EXCELLENT! He’s ready to join a new family, preferably in the suburbs (city life may be too exciting for him.) Please fill out the application at this link https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/POSH/Dog

Story
Little Miss Flower looks like she shrunk in the wash! She’s little! At one year old Flower was surrendered to our care as her family to whom she was gifted didn’t have time for her. Flower is excited for her walks, wagging her tail as we go and occasionally doing little skips of joy. While she can be a bit shy at first meeting (she warms more quickly to women), she’ll quickly claim you as a friend and show off her ‘sit’ and ‘paw’ in exchange for a treat. We’re told Flower is housetrained, and loves to play with rope toys. Lovely on leash, spayed, microchipped and up to date with vaccinations she’ll do best as your only four legged friend.

Story
If this isn’t the cutest face on the planet, we don’t know what is. Little 8 year young, 15 lb. Chubbs wears a big smile, his tail never stops wagging, he loves making new friends, loves his walks and is a delight on leash. He looks up with shining eyes, thrilled to have made a new friend and be out exploring. Cuddle time is a major plus as he wiggles onto my lap, burying his head into me as his tail wags faster. Chubbs is good with other dogs and of course a meet with a resident dog is required. Our little tootsie roll is a happy, friendly little guy, ready to charm you as he has done all of us. Chubbs is neutered, microchipped and up to date with vaccinations. : Please fill out the application on this link https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/POSH/Dog

Story
To adopt please fill out an adoption Application  Maddie is a 5yo female rat terrier mix who is being surrendered by her owner in Memphis who can no longer care for her. Maddie is twice the size of a rat terrier but that’s what she looks like… a big rat terrier!  Maddie is very affectionate with her people and loves to be close and cuddle. Medium activity level outside, calm inside. She’s fine with other dogs and living happily with another dog in the family. Good with kids and recommended for children 6 years and older.  Fine with cats. Not crated. Housebroken except for rare accidents. Obeys basic commands.  Loves to be with her people.  Healthy and fully vetted, current on shots, spayed, weighs about 45 pounds.  Here’s a note from Maddie’s foster mom:  Maddie is as loyal as they come, sweet, affectionate, loves to cuddle and be close to her people. Loves a comfy spot with a pillow. She doesn’t know how to cover herself with blanket/sheet but does enjoy it if you cover her when it’s chilly (fan on, breeze, etc.). If bothered during her slumber, she may growl like a grumpy old lady but just tell her to “hush!” HA! Does not beg for food and will (very happily!) sit for treats & is gentle taking them. She needs to have you within eyesight when she’s eating her food. Loves to play fetch with her toys inside but doesn’t do the same with sticks outside. She’ll chase them but not pick them up & bring them back. Known to take one of your shoes to lay with when alone. Also known to snag a stick of butter off the counter! When left alone, she’ll mind her business and nap, but will definitely be awaiting your return! She’s good taking baths, likes ice cubes (so don’t worry about picking up any you drop!), bully sticks, and LOVES small squeaky toys!
