My story

Meet Mickey and Minnie.  No they aren't mice, and they aren't from Disney... they are just 2 tiny chi pups that make a wonderful couple.   They really  are perfect together and we would love for them to find a home where they  can stay together.  Be sure to check out their videos for a better view of them. What kind of owner doesn't feed his babies, keeps them outside in the streets, and doesn't even realize that they are missing for over 3 days?  That was Mickey and Minnie's former owner.  A neighbor of theirs reached out to ask for our help as she has been caring for both of them since their owner neglected and then abandoned them.     Mikey (more tan than white) is the older of the two, he's about 2 years old and weighs 12 pounds. He's tan and white.  He's sweet as can be and he looks out for Minnie.  In fact he will make sure she eats by letting her eat first, and when she is done he'll eat after her.   Minnie (more white than tan) is the baby.  She's about 5 months old, weighing in at a whopping 5.5 pounds.   Their foster says they are amazing together.  They don't bark or yap and don't try to nip at anyone.  They love to sit and cuddle on her lap.   They have both been to the vet where they behaved perfectly.  They were vaccinated, and found to be heartworm negative.  Mickey has been neutered.  Minnie is too young.   They will be microchipped prior to adoption.  They do have a local foster so they will be arriving on our Sept. 13th transport to the NJ area.  If you are approved to adopt them, you can schedule a meet and greet. Personality: friendly, affectionate, lapdogs, not barkers Good with: people of all ages (including kids), dogs and cats (even a bit afraid of cats). Estimated date of birth: Mickey (Aug. 2023) and Minnie (Mar. 2025) Weight: Mickey (12.8 pounds) and Minnie (5.5 pounds) Medical: vetted, up to date on vaccinations, microchipped, Mickey is neutered Location:  Will be arriving to the NJ area on Sep 13th, and once you are approved to adopt, they are available for a meet and greet (or you can pick them up at transport). For more videos of Mickey and Minnie, please check out their YouTube playlist:  https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLmB5-2QLmiJP1WrkFHBFmcEMTc1OffdV1 If you have any questions please email:  friendsforlifeanimalrescue@gmail.com To apply to adopt: https://form.jotform.com/210286667669167 We always need fosters, please join us!  https://form.jotform.com/210257395409155 Many other dogs need our help, please consider donating or sponsoring a dog, if possible. 100% of all money received from adoption fees and donations goes directly back to support saving other dogs and cats in need.  FFLAR is a 501c(3) non-profit.   We appreciate your support! Venmo:  @friendsforlife-animalrescue   OR   Zelle: fflpetrescue@gmail.com To donate monthly, please use this Zeffy link.  Note: Please be aware that the “give tip” on the second step is checked by default.  The tip goes to Zeffy (not to FFLAR) and you can opt to uncheck it.  https://www.zeffy.com/en-US/donation-form/763f3cec-69ef-4806-96f6-831021b48466?fbclid=IwQ0xDSwL4hbtjbGNrAviFoWV4dG4DYWVtAjExAAEegHYYwrs5iSMcVVCL-43MA3M6nyqs867FuBqqghj5UXZQjQUoL0h2beNQOdI_aem_rFEk_Kbb7rp9XSLUut_hyw September 7, 2025, 7:29 pm
