DICKENS's Story

A PINT SIZED PARTY IN AN ADORABLE LITTLE PACKAGE.<br/><br/>That is Dickens in a nut shell.<br/><br/>Found abandoned in a parking lot where he was looking very scared and confused, Dickens was happy to accept help and never looked back. He loves life, people, fun and being the life of the party.<br/><br/>Dickens currently lives in a foster home with a handful of rescued kitties and two very loved, smaller adopted dogs. He enjoys them all and those kitties, brave enough to approach dogs, find him wanting to be friends. He would love kids as friends too, as long as they are gentle and not unkind. He loves toys, laps, car rides, walks, treats, playtime and life.<br/>This little cutie at less than two years old and weighing just five pounds, would make a wonderful traveling companion and is the perfect size for condo or apartment living. In his foster home he has a big backyard, with cows and goats and sheep on the other side of the fence and finds them fascinating and would like to be their friends too, if he could get to them. He is crate trained and in the process of being housebroken, which neutering has helped quite a bit but until he is all the way there, we would be happy to send him with a few washable belly bands, until he settles into his new potty routine at your house.<br/>So if you would like a mini party with fur, that loves people, playtime, other pets and life, you really need to consider this little dude. We names him Dickens, as in Cute as the Dickens and he earns his name every single day, by being so stinking adorable.<br/>To meet this little man, please go to our website at www.allmuttsgreatandsmall.org/adoption and submit the online application.

All Mutts Great and Small's Adoption Policy
We believe there are many different ways to be a successful dog owner.  It is our intent to broaden the idea of happy dog/person relationships to go beyond the traditional.  Our goal is to place people and dogs together with the intent being compatibility.  We know these dogs and we want to match them with the person who will provide them with the best possible life.  One they would have chosen themselves had they been able too. We do NOT have a standard list of "must haves", preferring to match dog with adopter. www.allmuttsgreatandsmall.org
