Story
Hi, my name is Ezekiel. I am a Terrier/Schnauzer mix. I am super smart and willing to learn. I am crate, housetrain and leash train. I get along great with cats and small dogs. I would love a fence in the backyard to run and play with my toys. I can also keep you company if you want to watch a movie on the couch or go for a coffee break and you can get me a puppy latte, or I can walk with you on trails. I am just a big teddy bear. This boy is super calm and very sweet, he will make a good companion. He would require a fence in the backyard to have space to run. If you are interested in Ezekiel, he is in Central Arkansas. He will come to you neuter and up to date on his shots. Transport is available for him through a transport company we use for a fee plus his adoption fee. If you are interested in Ezekiel, please apply at www.arkansaschihuaharescue.org

Story
Ester is a sweet, silly, and love bug that is looking for her wonderful forever family! This girl is a very affectionate dog who adores belly rubs, and lots of snuggles on the couch. She loves to play and will proudly parade with her toys around the house to get your attention. She loves to chase a tennis ball or play tug of war all day. She redirects easily and just wants to play all the time. Ester can be a bit shy at first, but she will adjust to you with time and lots of cuddles. She walks well on a leash. Because Ester is an active breed puppy that requires a fenced yard. This girl enjoys the company of other dogs and would do well with proper introductions. She also would likely do well in a home with a dog-savvy cat. She has not been tested around children. Ester quickly gets the hang of family life and settles into a home and a routine well. Ester is both crate and house-trained and her leash skills are coming along great – she’ll need her new humans to keep up this training with her. Ester is quick to learn, and does best with a patient, consistent approach. Ester is the perfect fit for a family looking for a dog who will always be up for fun and who will love her unconditionally! If you are interested in applying for Ester, please go to www.arkansaschihuahuarescue and fill out an application to meet Ester. This puppy is in CENTRAL ARKANSAS! Transport is available for a fee from the transport company.

Story
Chance is a happy, playful boy who loves a game of fetch and playing with other dogs. He walks well on a leash around the neighborhood where he loves to sniff and enjoy the fresh air. He adores spending time in a fenced backyard as he runs to chase the tennis ball and play with his foster siblings. He knows his basic commands. He is a smart boy who learns very quickly. Chance would do well in just about any kind of setting. He is shy at first but once he warms up, he is just a wonderful boy. He has been fostered with multiple bigger and smaller dogs and does great with all of them. He plays nicely and takes cues from them. Chance is still a puppy with puppy energy so he will require exercise. Chance has not been around kids and, but we feel he will do fine once he warms up. Chance is crate train and is working on house training. Chance is neutered and up to date with his shots and HW negative. He is ready for his own family to love. Chance has had his adoption fee sponsored by a donor, so he is ready to go to his approved forever home. You pay no adoption fee, just a transport fee to the transport company. If you are interested in adopting, please fill out an application at www.arkansaschihuahuarescue.org. This puppy is in Central Arkansas.

Hi there! Ready to meet the sweetest pup on the planet? It's me, Aero!💙🐾 Let me tell you a little bit about myself! Well as you can see I’m quite adorable. I’m a 8-month-old Labrador Retriever mix currently weighing around 25 pounds. My foster mom says I’ll be a medium-sized dog when I’m fully grown! I have the cutest ears and a soft and shiny coat that I love to have pet. My handsome features aren’t the only cool thing about me, just wait until you see how sweet and playful I am. I am a total cuddler and absolutely adore cuddling in my foster mom's lap while getting belly rubs. I give her so many kisses in return to show how much I love it! She tells me I am very gentle and super sweet. When it’s playtime, I love squeaking my toys, rolling around in the grass, and showing off my zoomies in fenced-in areas! Playtime is so fun, especially with my canine or feline friends! I can be shy at first, but I'm most comfortable when I have another canine pal around. Therefore, I dream of a forever home with a canine sibling. Once I get to know new people, I absolutely adore them, and would also do amazing with children! I am a smart cookie and am already leash-trained and working diligently on my crate and house training! I can’t wait to meet my forever family! Could it be with you? Here's a note from Areo's foster: "Aero is sooo sweet and cuddly. He loves to play with toys and his furry friends, but also loves a good nap! He is much more confident with another dog around. He sleeps through the night in his crate without a peep. He also is doing AMAZING with potty training. He loves food time and loves frozen kongs." Apply on our site today to adopt Aero: www.homeforgooddogs.org💙🐾 Aero is neutered, up-to-date on age-appropriate vaccinations, and microchipped. **Please note: completing an "adoption inquiry" via Adopt-a-pet/Petfinder does not constitute an HFG Dog Rescue adoption application.

Story
Hey there! My name is Anya and I'm so excited to introduce myself! I am a 7-month-old Labrador Retriever/Wiredhaired Terrier mix currently weighing around 22 pounds. I'm expected to be a medium-sized dog when fully grown. Aren't I the cutest? I have an adorable black, white, and grey coat and the cutest face to match! Just look at my puppy eyes, they are sure to melt your heart! My foster mom says I am so sweet and cuddly. I love laying in her lap and giving her kisses! In return, she gives me the best belly rubs. I love cuddles, but playtime is where it's at! I love running around in fenced-in areas with my canine friends and showing off my zoomies! In fact, it was my foster siblings that helped me get comfortable and I would love to go home with another confident canine to help me acclimate even faster. Toys are the best and I especially love the squeaky ones. I also hear I am a smart cookie as I have been working hard on my leash, house, and crate training! I can't wait to see what else I can learn. I do amazing with all dogs, cats, and children. I hope to meet my forever family soon and hope to see you soon!
