Toy Breeds In Need Rescue (TBIN), a 501(c)(3) non-profit, all-volunteer organization, was created with the goal of rescuing, rehabilitating and re-homing toy breed dogs (purebred and mixes - Chihuahuas, Toy Poodles, Pugs, Shih Tzus, Maltese, Japanese Chin, Papillions, Pekingese, Pomeranians, Cavalier King Charles, etc) in the Maryland area. We have a strong affinity for special needs and senior dogs, as such, TBIN will endeavor to help those who need the most help. TBIN also provides sanctuary and end-of-life care for dogs too ill or too elderly to be adopted out.
Once your application is received, one of our volunteers will begin the approval process by conducting a veterinary or personal reference check. If the reference check is successful, the next step is the prescreen interview. This is a telephone call that typically lasts a minimum of 45 minutes. It gives us the opportunity to get to know you better, to better understand what you are looking for in a canine companion, and to answer any questions you may have. If the prescreen interview goes well and both the applicant and TBIN wish to continue the screening process, you will be contacted by a volunteer to schedule your home visit. It is only after the successful completion of these steps that an applicant is eligible to be considered approved to adopt. Please note that if approved, applicants should be prepared, and may be asked, to travel to the dog's foster home (all foster homes are within the Maryland, DC, Northern VA area. All decisions regarding application approval and placement of TBIN dogs are made solely by TBIN.

After getting to know the dog warden, she said that most of these dogs were going to be put to sleep. Of course, I had to bring some dogs home. M
