These little guys are the definition of a bonded duo—where one goes, the other follows, tails wagging and hearts wide open. They’re sweet, silly, and endlessly cheerful. Whether they’re playing tag in the yard, snuggling on the couch, or greeting new friends, Carlos and Snoopy radiate joy. Their favorite things? Belly rubs, snack time, and being together. They are good with other dogs their size, though we do not know how they are with cats. We’re looking for a home that can welcome both boys with open arms. They’re a package deal of love, laughter, and low-to-the-ground zoomies. If you’re ready for twice the cuddles and twice the fun, Carlos and Snoopy are waiting to meet you.Please help us make room to save more homeless pets!!! Adopting from Hope Rescues saves the life of two.. the one you adopt and the one your adoption makes room for. We are a Rescue which means we physically go and save lives. Hope pulls animals on their last day of life from animal control facilities that still use the inhumane gas chamber to put to death homeless pets.

Story
🚨🚨ATTENTION RETIRES 🚨🚨 Lucille here, looking for someone retired she can spend her days with. She loves a nice lap, soft beds, bye bye rides, and a stoll around the neighborhood. Lucille is just 19lbs of bubbly personality. She is 7 yrs old and said to be a Chihuahua/Beagle mix. Her energy level is medium, and she doesn't require crating, if you need to run an errand without her. Lucille doesn't care for little kiddos or larger dogs, cats are probably a no go! She would be just fine, being the center of attention and doesn't need a large yard to satisfy her. She just had a dental and that little tooth that sticks out, not only adds to her cuteness, it doesn't stop her from treats. She is housebroken and will head to the door, letting you know, it's time. https://airtable.com/shrSbfFkCdeRMtZw2?fbclid=IwAR2Q_R2qh2bk6pwcDPnrL8722wGTJORafSAWJObVLvz0g6ASJOFxLIdvsRw

Meet Elfie! Elfie is a sweet, gentle three-year-old pup weighing in at 22 pounds, and he's officially on the lookout for his forever family. This little guy is as friendly as they come-he loves other dogs, does wonderfully with cats, and is great with kids. Elfie walks beautifully on leash and is always up for an adventure, especially if it involves a car ride. At home, he's a total gem: fully house-trained, kennel-trained, and eager to please. If you're searching for a loyal companion with a big heart and an easygoing personality, Elfie might just be your perfect match. He's ready to fill a home with love, joy, and plenty of tail wags! https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/NAF/Dog

WE ARE A TX BASED RESCUE. THIS DOG IS CURRENTLY LOCATED IN TX AND WILL BE TRANSPORTED UPON ADOPTION. Please fill out an adoption application at haydudeequine.org 🐾 Meet Gordo: 8 Pounds of Loyalty, Cuddles and Endless Love 🐾 Gordo may only weigh 8 pounds, but this little Chihuahua mix is living proof that the best things really do come in small packages. At just 3 years old, he’s equal parts lap-warmer, Nyla bone enthusiast, lizard chaser, and full-time heart thief. He’s got a soft spot for the ladies—his ideal home is with a calm, loving woman who doesn’t mind having a pint-sized shadow follow her from room to room. (Gentlemen, don’t worry—he’ll accept you too, but he’s a mama’s boy at heart!) Because of his sensitive nature, Gordo would do best in a quieter home without kids, ideally with another small dog buddy to snuggle and catch some rays. 💊 Gordo is considered special needs. He has occasional seizures, but with his daily meds (Levetiracetam and Phenobarbital—about $50 every two months), they are being managed well. He’ll also need Midazolam on hand, just in case. The good news? He takes his meds like a champ, and he doesn’t let this slow him down from enjoying life’s simple pleasures. Some of Gordo’s favorite hobbies include: Curling up with his human like a living, breathing neck pillow 💤 Catching some rays - made so much better if he can curl up with a doggie sibling Begging shamelessly for watermelon 🍉 Sitting in your lap just to be as close as possible ❤️ Joining his small-dog pals in epic standoffs with the vacuum Gordo is house trained, crate trained (he happily hops in at mealtime), and ready for a forever home where he can feel safe, loved, and cherished. He may have been through a lot already, but Gordo’s heart is wide open and waiting. If you’re looking for a sweet, sensitive pup who will adore you endlessly (and maybe steal your watermelon), Gordo just might be your perfect match. Apply today at haydudeequine.org🐶💖
