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 Love, Loyalty, and Lap-Warming Perfection 💛🐾 Gordo has been waiting… and waiting… and we honestly don’t understand how this little guy is still looking for his forever home. At just 3 years old and 8 pounds, Gordo is living proof that the very best things come in the tiniest, snuggliest packages. This sweet Chihuahua mix is equal parts lap warmer, cuddle champion, and loyal sidekick. He adores being close to his person and will happily follow you from room to room like a tiny, devoted shadow. If you’ve ever wanted a dog who truly wants to be with you — not just near you — Gordo is your guy. He does have a soft spot for the ladies (Gentlemen, don’t worry—he’ll accept you too, but he’s a mama’s boy at heart!) and would thrive in a calm, quiet home. He’d also be thrilled to have a small doggie friend to sunbathe with and share naps. Kids aren’t really his vibe, but cozy couches and peaceful routines? Absolutely. 💊 A little extra love note about Gordo: Gordo is considered special needs due to occasional seizures, which are well managed with daily medication (Levetiracetam and Phenobarbital - about $50 every two months). He takes his meds like a champ and doesn’t let it slow him down one bit. He’ll also need Midazolam on hand, just in case he does have a seizure — though thankfully, his meds are working very well and he rarely has one. Now for the fun stuff… 🐶 Gordo’s Favorite Things: • Being used as a living neck pillow • Sunbathing like a tiny beach bum • Napping with doggie friends • Shamelessly begging for watermelon 🍉 • Sitting in your lap… always • Staring down the vacuum like a brave little warrior He’s house trained, crate trained, and happily trots into his crate at mealtime like the good boy he is. Gordo is gentle, affectionate, and incredibly loving — the kind of dog who bonds deeply and gives his whole heart once he feels safe. This little guy has been through a lot in his short life, but he hasn’t let it dim his sweetness or his desire to love. He’s just waiting for someone to see how special he truly is and give him the calm, loving home he deserves. 💛 If you’re looking for a devoted companion, a constant cuddle buddy, and a tiny soul who will adore you endlessly — Gordo is ready to wiggle into your heart and home! Apply today at haydudeequine.org and give this sweet boy the forever home he’s been waiting for. 💖

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 Sadie — Petite Package, Supermodel Legs, Total Lovebug ✨💗 (Female • Chi/Terrier Mix • 2 Years • 12 lbs • House Trained) Sadie is living proof that confidence looks great on everyone — especially when paired with 12 pounds of sweetness and legs that go on for DAYS. Seriously, this girl is built like a tiny runway model who accidentally wandered into a puppy playgroup and decided she loved it. Once a shy wallflower, Sadie has fully stepped into her glow-up era. She was adopted as a puppy but unfortunately her owner passed away. She was very shy and unsure when she came back to us to find her another fur-ever home but she is doing AMAZING in her foster home and has discovered her absolute favorite hobby: playing with other dogs. Loves loves loves it. If there were medals for playtime enthusiasm, she’d be on the podium. Is she shy when first meeting new people? For about a New York second (not even the whole minute). Then the tail starts wagging, the legs start prancing, and she’s like, “Oh hi, yes, I live here now.” She bonds quickly with her person and becomes a loyal little shadow with impressive leg reach. 🐾 Sadie’s Standout Stats: • 2 years old, petite 12 lbs with extra-long legs for maximum elegance • House trained (tiny body, big manners) • Fantastic with other dogs — playgroup superstar • Warms up to new people quickly and even gives sweet lil kisses • Bonds quickly and deeply with her person • Sweet, affectionate, and sneakily funny Sadie would thrive in a home where she can be part of the fun — whether that’s romping with a dog sibling, trotting proudly beside her human, or curling up after a long day of being adorable. She’s gentle, loving, and finally ready to be someone’s forever best girl. If you’re looking for a dog who can steal your heart, your couch, and possibly your camera roll in under 60 seconds… 👉 Apply today at haydudeequine.org — Sadie is ready to strut her way into her forever home. 🐾💖
