Story
Meet Gizmo Gizmo is a male Chihuahua with a big personality in a tiny package! He can be a little particular and has some classic “small dog syndrome,” so he’ll need patient, understanding parents who are willing to give him time, consistency, and gentle guidance. With the right person, Gizmo can be a loving little companion who just needs someone willing to understand his quirks and let him be himself. ##2778538##

Story
This handsome boy arrived at Animal Humane Society as a stray, so unfortunately, we don't know much about his past. What we do know is that the shelter environment has been overwhelming for him, and he's having a hard time trusting people. He needs a patient, experienced foster or foster-to-adopt home where he can decompress, have some quiet time, and learn that people can be trusted. His new family will need to respect his boundaries, move slowly, and allow him to build a relationship at his own pace. Located in a Foster Home. ##2814696##

Story
Meet Goose – Your Snuggle Buddy and Loyal Companion Goose is a sweet, affectionate boy who loves nothing more than curling up on the couch with a cozy blanket and his favorite human. He’s a true snuggle bug at heart, but he also has plenty of playful energy and would thrive in a home that can help him stay active and engaged. Goose is definitely a dog’s dog—he prefers canine friends over feline ones, so a cat-free home is best. While he can be a little nervous when meeting new people, he does best with someone who’s experienced in helping shy or anxious dogs feel safe and secure. The most important thing to know about Goose? He’s incredibly loyal. Once he trusts you, he’ll always be in your corner—looking out for you, just like you do for him. If you're ready to open your heart to a loving, playful, and devoted companion, Goose might be the perfect fit for your family.
