Story

We are currently fostering a sweet 6-month-old Pomeranian and are looking for a loving forever home for him! He is absolutely adorable, affectionate, playful, and full of personality. He's a happy little guy who loves attention and being around people. We recently welcomed a new baby, and while we've loved having him, we've realized that we aren't able to give him the time and attention a young puppy needs and deserves. He's still working on potty training, so his new family will need to be patient and consistent as he continues learning. We're hoping to find a loving home with someone who has the time and energy to enjoy all the fun (and occasional challenges!) that come with raising a puppy. He's such a sweetheart, and we know he'll make a wonderful companion!

Story

*** ADELIA IS BEING FOSTERED IN LA FERIA, TEXAS *** Adelia is a stunning 14 lb terrier mix who came into rescue emaciated and had clearly been through a lot. She came to us dangerously underweight, and while she's doing beautifully now, she still eats like every meal might be her last. She is very food motivated. She has now fully embraced the good life and is thriving. She is active, playful, and deeply entertaining, the kind of dog that will have you smiling on a daily basis just by existing. Adelia is fully vaccinated, spayed and microchipped. Adelia tested positive for heartworms but has since finished treatment. One of her most charming quirks? Adelia has a very unique way of moving through the world. She hops, she trots, she loves to run and play with toys. This little girl will be happiest in a home that can keep up with her energy. She is also doing wonderfully with potty training and gets along great with other dogs. Now, Adelia is not a cuddle bug, but don't mistake independence for indifference. She will settle in right next to you and happily soak up a good face scratch. That's her love language, and it's pretty adorable. Adelia needs an active, patient adopter who appreciates a little dog with a big personality. She does well with adults and other dogs, though we don't yet know how she feels about cats or small children. She is quirky. She is beautiful. She cant wait to find her furever home! Please review our adoption requirements before applying: https://www.anassafehavenrescue.org/adoption-requirements.html Adelia is being fostered in La Feria, TX. If you would like to be considered for adoption, please submit your application here: https://new.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/ASHT/Dog. Her adoption fee is $450 to an out of state adopter. Her adoption fee covers transport costs so no additional costs will be incurred by the adopter.

Story

Hi! I’m a sweet, affectionate Chihuahua mix looking for my forever home! I was adopted from animal control in early August and I’m now about 1 year, 3 months old. I’m still young, full of personality, and have lots of love to give!I am happiest around my person. I’m playful and enjoy spending time with my 50-pound dog friend.I’m looking for a home where I can get lots of love, attention, and companionship. I can get a pretty anxious when left alone, so I’d do best with someone who is home often and can help me feel safe and secure. I have the big personality you’d expect from a Chihuahua mix, and I like to let the world know when I see people or dogs passing by! Someone familiar with Chihuahuas or similar breeds would be a wonderful match for me.I may love being the only dog in the home, where I can soak up all the attention. The other dog in the home would most likely prefer to be the only dog again, so my current family is trying to do the best for both dogs.

Story

🐾 Meet Atlas – Our Longest-Waiting Adventurer 🐾 Atlas is a 4-year-old Catahoula mix who has been in the rescue program for almost 4 years, and we truly don’t understand how this incredible dog is still waiting for his forever home. Atlas is great with other dogs and enjoys having canine friends. He is cat-friendly, but he can be a bit much for them since he always wants to play—so he’d do best in a cat-free home or one with a very tolerant, confident cat. This guy is active, athletic, and always ready for an adventure. Walks, outings, and staying busy are his jam, so he’ll need an active family who can keep up with his enthusiasm for life. Atlas does have some separation anxiety, but it is very manageable and continues to improve with routine and structure. And here’s the really cool part—Atlas has competed in THREE OneWorld Canine Biathlons and absolutely crushed it, even placing 2nd in one of his races! 🏅 This dog has both brains and brawn. 📍 Fostered in Huntsville, AL 🐶 Good with dogs 🐱 Cats with conditions 🏃 Adventure-ready & athletic Atlas has waited long enough. He’s loyal, driven, and ready to be someone’s best adventure buddy. If you’re looking for a dog who will truly be your partner in life, Atlas is your guy. 👉 Apply to adopt at www.forrescue.net Rescue: Friends of Rescue 💙
