Hi my name is Freddie, my foster mom calls me Frederick or Fred Head and Freddie bear..... ugh but you got to love her. I’m a very sweet and loving guy and love to be on your lap kissing you and cuddling. I’m 5 years old and weigh 14lbs. I’m a Lhasa apso but not sure what that means but I’m cute. My potty training is going well but still need some training. My only problem is that I have a fear of vets and groomers and can be crazy. My foster mom has been working with me when it comes to grooming and I’m doing well but not ready for the groomers yet. So if you think you can help me over come my fears and want a loving good boy, please but in an application to adopt me...... I will be waiting! He is good with other dogs, he likes to chase cats, but won’t hurt them. If interested in this boy, please visit http://www.marilynsvoice.org.

Meet Sophie a 5 year old Maltese weighing in at about 13 lbs. Sophie is a very sweet female puppy mill survivor. She is doing well in her foster home and loves her foster brother and sister pups. Sophie is getting spayed soon and will then be available fir adoption. She will need a fenced yard preferably because she is not yet leash trained. She will need a home with another dog as she loves to play and another dog in the home will make her more comfortable. She’s doing pretty well on potty training but occasionally has an accident. She likes to sleep and rekax in a crate . Most of the time we just leave the crate open and she’ll go in and take a nap when she feels like it . She’s a bit shy but is coming around quickly.

Cato was surrendered from an abusive home by a guardian. He was kicked off a bed at 8 months old and broke his left back leg. The injury wasn't addressed soon enough and he ended up having it amputated. The disability doesn't hold him back at all. For all he's been through, he's a loving, energetic, trusting dog. He's been fostered with 4 other dogs and loves them all. He's totally housetrained and crate trained, although he's had the run of his foster home and there have been no issues. He weighs 28 lbs, is up to date with vaccinations, Revolution and is neutered. As a foster Mom for rescues, I don't get a dog very often that is so sweet and normal. He's a tribute to what dogs can overcome. You are welcome to submit an adoption application at www.marilynsvoice.org, click on adopt, then click on adoption application.  Thank you!

Teeko is a Chihuahua mix, estimated to be about 6-8 years old and weighing about 9 pounds. He is up to date on all vetting, including a dental. Teeko spends most of his day napping in his bed, doing his own thing. He's house trained and crated when his foster parents leave. He loves treats and going for car rides. He walks fine on a leash, but seems to prefer short distances. Teeko would do best as the only dog, or with a companion that is very laid back. He isn't a fan of pups that get in his personal space. He doesn't mind the cat at all. Teeko does have some fear based reactions and quirks from his past life. He will need a quiet home and a patient adopter that lets him settle in and build trust, and understands his fear reactions. He will do best in an adult only home. If you are interested in adopting this handsome guy please submit an adoption application now at www.marilynsvoice.org. Thank you!

Mia is a small black Chihuahua, weighing about 7 lbs and estimated to be around 8 years old. She has been doing great in her foster home where she gets along swimmingly with another Chihuahua, and has also been very friendly to the family cats. She has been around a calm child before and was not phased. Mia’s favorite activities include going for walks, playing with toys, eating, and snuggling up close to her humans. She runs hot for a small dog and loves going for walks even in the cold with a nice sweater on. She loves to play tug with a stuffy or chase squeaky balls. She would probably really enjoy being in a home with a dog that's a little larger than her - as she likes to rough-house, and is really strong for her size. But she knows how to play nice with small dogs too. She is an active girl – she likes to play hard and nap harder. After a good work out she wants nothing more than to cuddle up under the blankets and watch Netflix. She is very affectionate, and is always asking for head rubs and loves to be held and doted on. You will know when she wants attention, as she will come stand in your face and start pawing at your chest. Mia does great with having her teeth brushed, and ears cleaned… but she is scared of having her nails clipped – she is getting better with lots of positive reinforcement and treats while clipping. She will need somone to continue to work with her on this. She is 99% house trained, and is out loose in her foster home during the day with the other family animals. She has been on a feeding and sleep schedule and has adjusted to it wonderfully. At night time Mia is a champ in her crate! She likes to sleep in her crate at night under her favorite blankets, and usually won’t come out until no earlier than 7:30am. She likes to chase squirrels and will always need to be on a leash or in a completely fenced in backyard under close supervision. Mia is a small dog with a H-U-G-E personality. She likes to let everyone know she’s there and can sound intimidating with her barks and snarls – but once she has a chance to say ‘hello’ she is a great friend to everyone she meets. Overall, Mia is spunky, playful, inquisitive, an excellent guard dog, and sweet as sugar to her family and friends. Mia will be available for adoption after she has been spayed and had her dental.

Meet Mya she is an 8 year old Italian greyhound - Chihuahua mix. She came into Marilyn's Voice because her owner passed away. When she arrived in rescue she was very shy and reserved and wanted to spend time in her crate, but she has blossomed in her foster home. She now will come onto foster mom’s lap and spend time with her as she watches TV . Mya has even started to play with the other foster dogs. Mya is a very special girl and deserves the best since she has been through so much. She would do best in a quiet home without young children. Mya is housebroken and crate trained. She is such a special soul who deserves the best. Her foster mom loves her beyond and wants to find that special person to love and appreciate her for the sweet girl she is. She deserves to find a forever home that will love her.

Meet Cosmo, he is a gentle, sweet senior Pomeranian. He is a very laid back boy and loves everyone he meets. Cosmo is house trained, walks well on a leash and loves to take rides in the car.

Tito (Pete/Sassy Pants) is a young Chihuahua. We know little about his history since he was found as a stray and made his way to Marilyn’s Voice. He can be fearful of new people and will need time to feel safe with his new family. He would do best as the only pet in the household as well as a house with no children. He has shown some signs of being abused so the quick movements scare him. He isn’t a lap dog, but once he trusts you, he will sometimes lay nearby, either by your feet or next to you on the couch. He has a sensitive tummy and eats can food (not prescription). He also has medication to help control his anxiety. He is pee pad and crate trained. Out of city or state adopters please be aware you will have to come to Cleveland, Ohio to complete the adoption. Marilyn’s Voice does not ship their dogs. No exceptions.
