Story
Apply to Adopt Me! Max is an approx. 1yo, 14-lb tri-color chihuahua mix. He is an adorable medium-to-high energy young boy with a sweet, expressive face and an irresistible smile. He is equal parts playful puppy and affectionate cuddle bug, always happy to follow his person around the house before curling up beside them—or even falling asleep in their arms. Like any young pup, Max has a mischievous streak and enjoys collecting things to chew on, so he'll need appropriate toys and a watchful eye while he continues learning good puppy manners. He is mostly house trained but may still have the occasional accident as he adjusts to a new home. He is very food motivated, making him a great candidate for positive reinforcement training. Max is also still learning leash skills and will thrive with a patient adopter who can help him build confidence on walks. Max loves toys, especially chew toys and soft squeaky toys, and enjoys running, wrestling, and playing chase with other friendly dogs. He is currently living happily with another young small dog and would likely enjoy a canine playmate. He would also do well as the center of someone's attention, as long as they would be able to socialize him regularly with friends'/relatives' young, playful dogs.  He is curious but non-aggressive with cats. He is fine with kids, but due to his bitey playfulness and puppy energy, it would be best if they were older. He also will grab and chew shoes, socks and pillows - so some training for him would be best. He rides quietly and calmly in the back seat of the car safely tethered in, loves spending time outdoors, and is especially happy stretching out in the sunshine for a good sunbath. This active boy will need a fenced yard to run and play in. At night, Max sleeps comfortably in bed with his person or in his own bed nearby. He has no known medical issues. His foster family loves Max for his adorable smile, funny puppy antics, affectionate personality, and the way he brightens every room with his sweet, charming nature. If you live in the Central Florida/Orlando area and believe you have the perfect home for Max, please complete an app and tell us more about your family.July 10, 2026, 1:48 pm

Story
Apply to Adopt Me! Potatoes, anyone?? Meet Blanket (also affectionately called Spud or Little Man). An 8-yo, 10.2-lb Chi mix with the cutest little bunny bottom who is on his way to an ideal weight of 7-8lbs. Sadly, he was surrendered after his elderly owner was unable to care for him. Blanket is doing well in his foster home and gets along with a same size and larger dog but doesn’t require a companion dog. He does not pay any attention to a cat. He will need time to adapt to a new environment when he finds his new forever home. He approaches for pets, cuddles and joining his person on the couch and will follow foster mom from room to room. He is making progress with his walking on leash, and will need someone to continue that with him. He loves the outdoors, sun bathing and hanging out with the other pups and exploring sights and smells. Blanket is a good eater (hence weight loss agenda), even likes veggies and takes treats gently. He’s house trained, rides nicely in a car safely tethered, crated, sleeps quietly all night in his crate when given his nightly treat. This little boy can be somewhat nervous to be picked up, but allows with gentle assurances and is easy to be bathed. He recently had a dental. He would do best in a quiet home and, if the home has kids, they be older and respectful. This friendly boy will steal your heart with his soulful eyes, sweet kisses and gentle manner. Although showing no interest in toys at first, Blanket now carries a stuffed toy around (for comfort?) while waiting for meals or to go outside. Part of his personality is expressed with his tongue out, evidenced in many pictures. If you live in the Central Florida Orlando area, and believe you have the perfect home for awaiting Blanket, please complete an app and tell us more about you.July 10, 2026, 1:48 pm

Story
Apply to Adopt Me! Meet Chipper, also known as Chippy, a handsome little Chihuahua mix. He’s approximately 12 years old and weighs 10 pounds. Chippy has had a hard and sad start in life, but this boy has been a little trooper, with love and understanding he has conquered most of his fears and is now a happy boy. He gets along with all his siblings, although he doesn’t play with them much. He loves his squeaky toys much better. He is so happy when his foster parents come home he does a little happy dance. He is friendly to visitors, but due to his past, sometimes he needs a slower interaction. If he makes a growling face, he’s saying, I’m uncomfortable. He’s asking for a little space so walk away and he’s fine. He needs that respect. Chippy loves to go on walks, he is fully house trained, and he rides quietly in the car. He sleeps quietly all night in his big cozy bed. Chippy is a happy and quiet boy; he loves to sit next to you and watch TV and get pets and love. He’s beginning to realize that life is good and gets bouncy and happy to be there with you. He’s an absolutely adorable little guy. Just look at that face! Chippy needs an all-adult home with experience with Chihuahua-type dogs to live his best life. He’s waiting for his forever home and really would love to meet you.  If you live in the Central Florida/Orlando area and believe you have the perfect home for Chipper, please complete an app and tell us more about you.  July 10, 2026, 1:48 pm
