These two are my best friends in the world and they are both rescue dogs. Mason ( first photo with Toby the cat, also a rescue pet) who is a Bichon x Maltese, was dumped in a Kennel at two years of age as his owner decided to move interstate with her new boyfriend. We have had him for nearly six years now and would never part with him.
We decided he needed a girlfriend so Ginny, ( second photo) who is a Shitzu x Maltese, came all the way down from Hervey Bay when she was two years old. Her owner decided she was too much work to keep. That was three years ago, she now rules our house with an iron paw, is very smart, loyal and loving. They both get on very well with the cats and Ginny tends to mother them.
Dogs are great company and give so much more than they get. They deserve to have a happy life so think really hard before you ask "How much is that puppy in the window" as they do require a little bit of work but are worth it. They are not "Toys" to be dumped when you get bored with them. A lot of dogs are not so lucky as to land on all four paws like my two have.
Some pet rescue sites so you can adopt your new best friend.
