"Where DARKNESS leads to LIGHT..."

“Road” in “Road to Rescue” is not a street or a highway or an interstate. When a dog is rescued... they are embraced by arms of a human. “Road” in “Road to Rescue” refers to our forearms... where the animals we rescue cross on their way to a new life. Ninna's Road to Rescue is a 501c3 non-profit, primarily small-breed dog rescue, to include senior and puppy mill breeder dogs and those at risk at animal control facilities. Visit our website for more information: www.RoadtoRescueLA.org or visit us at www.nr2r.petfinder.com. Most all of our volunteers are retirees! If you'd like to join our team, fill out our Volunteer Agreement at https://www.roadtorescuela.org/volunteer. It will be the best thing you've ever done. DONATIONS ARE NEEDED TO HELP US CONTINUE THE VALUABLE WORK WE DO! We are a 501c3 TAX DEDUCTABLE non-profit organization.

WINTERTHUR ADOPTED 11.01.2026! FLORIDA-BOUND! 💙

Brittany and Joshua were looking for someone to join their family and came across our Maltese crew. One may ask, “How do you choose from so many?” For Brittany, it was easy. She saw his profile picture and knew he was the one. His name sealed the deal. Brittany has a whimsical personality, according to Joshua, and the name “Winterthur” just spoke to her. Who could argue with that, right?

Joshua flew from Florida to Louisiana to adopt this super sweet boy. He’s driving back so they will have plenty of time to get acquainted. Brittany is eagerly awaiting to meet Winterthur in person and welcome him to his new home. I can guarantee she is going to ADORE him! Congratulations and thank y’all for adopting!

HAPPY TAILS WINTERTHUR! ❤️

DOG APPLICATION LINK: http://www.roadtorescuela.org/dog-application

Basel (female)
Intake date: 10/14/2026
Maltese
1 year old
Intake weight: 8.6 pounds
Adoption fee: $350, which includes vetting, microchip

Good with other dogs: yes
Cats: yes, they also lived with cats... and also, ducks and chickens.

Vetting and other: altered (spayed), up-to-date on age-appropriate vaccinations, heartworm negative, f***l negative, treated for ear mites and ear hair plucked, on monthly flea/tick and heartworm prevention, professional groom, microchipped

Health issues: none observed.

Temperament: a little shy at first, very sweet, social, friendly once comfy - great little temperament.

Energy level: medium

Groom needs: high maintenance; requires regular professional grooming, along with intermittent brushing to avoid matting - this breed mats up really fast! The coat is like cotton.

Biography: We took in thirteen dogs (10 dogs and 3 puppies) from animal control after they were seized due to neglect. They all had ear mites and fleas and none were spayed or neutered.

All the dogs are friendly. Some are shier than others. We don't believe they had a lot of handling because when we pick them up, they stiffen up... some more than others. They lived in individual pet carriers much of their life. We are thankful they are out of that situation and now can go on to lead happy, healthy lives with new families. Since we have so many that all pretty much look alike, we are posting them in batches. YOU MUST APPLY for a specific dog. Because these dogs will be popular, you can't just apply for "a Maltese". If you're approved and the one you applied for is reserved... we'll advise you which ones are left and you can choose from the remaining. Their personalities are virtually all the same. The only differences may be the weight and age... which are all very close as well (along with the s*x).

**WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW**
*We do adopt out of state provided the adopter is willing and able to travel to us once approved. We do not ship or transport our animals and there is no exception to this rule.

*Most of our adoptable dogs are small, and they are never to be left outside alone, ever! We only rehome our dogs to adopters that plan to have them as inside dogs and part of the family! We do allow adopters with doggie doors, provided there is SECURE fencing and the dog is over 15 pounds. There is no exception to this rule!

*PREDATORS: IF THIS DOG IS UNDER 10 POUNDS, the dog is to be monitored and protected when outside at all times! PREDATOR-THREAT IS A REAL DANGER! For example, a hawk tried to pick up a Chihuahua owned by a friend visiting Ninna’s house… RIGHT IN FRONT OF THE VISITOR. Thankfully the visitor was watching the dog and the hawk was wrestled off of the Chihuahua but it did require an ER visit and she is was very lucky to survive. TAKE IT SERIOUSLY!

*NO SMALL CHILDREN!! As with almost all the dogs at NR2R, young children or a very active household is not recommended. Many of our dogs come to us BECAUSE of small children, thus we do not rehome our dogs to homes with babies or young children. KEEP THIS IN MIND IF YOU HAVE VISITING GRANDCHILDREN AS WELL! Even if the children are older, it would depend on the child AND the parent or parents.

*HOUSETRAINING: We do NOT guarantee that any of our adoptable dogs are housetrained. While most should be easily trained, keep in mind that they live in a rescue where they have access to the outdoors all day and are inside at night. Even if they were surrendered to us as housetrained, it doesn’t mean they will automatically be housetrained in your home. Housetraining them should be easy in the right home with time, patience, and consistency.

*KENNELING: We always recommend kenneling when you cannot supervise your dog. This helps with housetraining and any destructive tendencies until you get to know your new addition.

*We do not guarantee the age, health or temperament of any of the dogs we rehome. Many of the dogs we take in come from animal control and rarely do we have histories and even when we do, many times the histories are inaccurate.

*Only adopters with a responsible dog ownership history and excellent vet reference need apply. If you bring this pet into your heart and home, you will receive in return many years of love, companionship, and loyalty. That’s our guarantee.

Time may be of the essence if you are looking to adopt a specific animal.

The first APPROVED application we receive will be considered. We are NOT a first come, first serve rescue!! We adopt our rescues out to the RIGHT home, not just A home.

Brulee (female)
Intake date: 10/24/2026
Cairn Terrier
7 years old
Intake weight: 13.8 pounds
Adoption fee: $200, which includes vetting, microchip

Good with other dogs: yes
Cats: yes, she lived in a home with several cats, including ducks and chickens as well

Vetting and other: altered (spayed), dental performed, up-to-date on age-appropriate vaccinations, heartworm negative, f***l negative, on monthly flea/tick and heartworm prevention, microchipped

Health issues: none observed.

Temperament: timid at first but once she warms up, she is very sweet and friendly - we've yet to hear her bark.

Energy level: low

Groom needs: medium maintenance; she's got wiry hair that just needs brushing from time to time, along with a bath.

Biography: Brulee came in with Queso. We were contacted by the out-of-state sister of a woman and her husband who were arrested (details will be given to an approved adopter once they are placed for adoption). It's kind of a long story how she ended up contacting us, but she thought one of the six dogs was adopted from us. Come to find out, that wasn't the case. We took in a stray in January, posted the dog on social media and the dog was reclaimed by the couple. So, the dog wasn't adopted from us, but reclaimed from us. When dogs are reclaimed, we have them sign a reclamation form and in that form it states that if they ever want to rehome the dog, to please contact us first. So, this is how we ended up involved. Nevertheless, the couple gave the sister permission to find places for all the dogs. We took in two, two went to a family friend and the other two went to another rescue.
We don't have much information about their habits. We do know they lived inside their home with several other dogs, cats, chickens and ducks (if you can imagine the scene).

In any case, they are both very sweet and have acclimated nicely to our rescue environment, the people in and out and the other dogs. They should each acclimate quickly to a new home. Due to the chaotic environment they lived in, we'd prefer a quiet and peaceful home for each of them.

Molly Bea (female)
Intake date: 10/28/2026
Papillon
18 years YOUNG
Intake weight: 4.6 pounds
Adoption fee: $125, which includes vetting, microchip

Good with other dogs: yes
Cats: unknown – we do not have cats to be able to test

Vetting and other: altered (spayed), thyroid test performed due to missing hair (she has hypothyroidism and will require lifelong Levothyroxine. Her thyroid levels are due to be rechecked on November 20, 2026, to ensure they have returned to the normal range), ears cleaned and flushed, up-to-date on age-appropriate vaccinations, heartworm negative, f***l negative, on monthly flea/tick and heartworm prevention, microchipped

Health issues: no teeth; has some sight issues (she can see but it's somewhat limited); hypothyroidism

Temperament: She may be 18... BUT SHE SURE DOESN'T ACT IT! She is alert, responsive, wags her tail, barks when you have her in sight but she can't get to you... she is an 18 year old in 5 year old body!

Energy level: low

Groom needs: medium maintenance; regular brushing and be sure to regularly check her ears because they were filled with waxy / debris buildup.

Biography: We were contacted by son of the owner of Molly Bea. Sadly, her owner passed away. The son tried to make it work for the last two years in a home with four kids and a large dog, but he knew she needed something different. That's where we came in. She is missing a lot of her hair on her back, which turns out is a thyroid issue, for which she's on medication now. She also has no teeth so she gets wet food and soft treats.

A few things we were told about her (some of which we've determined since being with us): She is friendly and social, travels well, never been on a leash and knows little about a leash, she is responsive and does come when called, she is a lap dog, LOVES to ride in a car and doesn't like being in a kennel (we've determined that as well). Actually, she just doesn't want to be away from her human so if she's in a gated area away from you or in a kennel, she will protest. LOL! Other than that, she's just an old gal looking for her next person with a nice, soft lap. If you think that's you, we welcome your application!
