Story
I got buddy from a home that could no longer keep him because of a very busy schedule. I agreed to Foster him while they found him a forever home. They stopped looking and decided I would keep him full time but I do not have the time for him either. He is a very loving affectionate boy who loves cuddles and playing. He is amazing with kids has more patience than a nun when it comes to all children and dogs. He doesn't mind cats he acts like they are not there. He deserves all the love in this world and I hope someone deserving of him can be his forever home.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Meet Milo Milo is such a sweet, adorable 5-pound chihuahua dog who was left at the shelter and ran out of time. Rompin Paws was asked if we could take milo to save his life,  YES! and we know there is a perfect family for milo who will cherish him and care for him for the rest of his life. Milo is a little cautious at the moment as he was just released from the shelter and is a little battle-worn and exhausted. Milo will be able to rest and sleep comfortably now. we have switched him to a human-grade diet and are adding oils and supplements to his food for macro and micronutrients to rebuild his poor body. From Milos foster "   This sweetie stole my heart. He is the most talkative chi I have ever met. Because we believe he is hard of hearing, care needs to be taken not to startle him or he will snap. But he loves to be in your lap and rub your face. He definitely lets you know when he wants attention. I think he has been misread because of his hearing issue, and because some can't read his talk. He is a great little guy." Milo is neutered, updated on his vaccines and will be microchipped and receive a complete Dental before he is adopted. Milo is on a Human grade diet and we will educate his adopters so he can live a healthy and vital senior life. To apply to adopt Milo- http://rompinpawsrescue.rescuegroups.org/forms/ He has an adoption fee of $495.00  All monies are recycled to save more dogs    Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Nilla, (Priscilla) is a sweet Rat Terrier-Jack Russell mix girl of about 1-2 years of age that was rescued from the streets of Oildale California in the Central Valley. A rescue friend of mine has had her for a while and she opened up to Robbin and became loving and friendly.  Nilla is very reserved to start but once she opens up, she is all about playing and cuddles!! Nilla will need dog savvy people who love the small breeds and if you know and love the rat Terrier even better. They love hard and are fiercely loyal to their humans once they trust. Nilla will do best in a quiet home that does not have a lot of people coming and going. She may do well with children but we have not had a chance to test her, so we are recommending a child free home. She is medium-high energy so she would do well with things to climb a big yard to run and even another dog to bond and play with. Nilla has an awesome personality and will make a wonderful companion. Her tail is always wagging and she is always happy to see her humans and will greet you at the door with enthusiasm and dancing.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Belle Is a very sweet, playful, outgoing and cuddly 1-year-old Fox Terrier-Chihuahua Mix. They are called taco terriers as the mix was started by Mexicans for their family friendly demeanors and small size. Belle loves to play with other dogs and she can run the yard for hours. Belle would be the perfect addition to your growing pack, she loves to interact with other small dogs and chase them around the lawn or in a room.  Once she warms up and trusts you, Belle is also a sweet lapdog who is happy to be held and cuddled when she is not actively running around. We recommend she have one or more dogs in the home to bond with and that she has people who have time for her. Belle is young, smart and will train easily if the effort and time are given to her. Belle is also a one to two-person dog. Belle was formerly neglected and possibly abused so she is very human selective and seems to gravitate toward women and is a lot more reserved and scared with men. Whomever we pair this girl with will need to be patient as she will take a little time to bond because she wants to be sure she can trust you. Once she does, she is all about being held, sleeping close and being as typical Chihuahua mix that wants to protect you. Someone who knows the chihuahua personality will be best As with all of our rescues, Belle is on a Human grade food diet. Rompin Paws educates our adopters on diet and species-specific foods to keep your new companion at their healthiest.                                                                    Belle is up to date, comes with a microchip. she has an adoption fee of $595.00.
