Story
PLEASE READ ENTIRE POST BEFORE INQUIRING AND PLEASE REFRAIN FROM REACHING OUT UNLESS YOU ARE READY TO COMMIT THESE ANIMALS DESERVE SOMEONE READY TO COMMIT TO THEM! Text or email for direct contact with rescuer located in Palmdale approved for same-day adoption (661)609-2186 memeco635@gmail.com Hey guys, I’m Marley. I’m a Havanese Maltipoo mix. My brother and I were surrendered by our Previous Owners family. Unfortunately, they got deported and their family didn’t want to take care of us. I’ve spent most of my life outside, but I am potty trained since coming to the rescue. I’ve made a lot of new friends and I’m very social and very sweet. My rescuer thought it would be nice to hire someone who didn’t have much experience to give me a haircut so I’m looking a little funny right now, but when my hair grows back, I promise I’ll look like my original picture. She decided not to allow that person to shave my brother, but I am more social and outgoing and playful, and I would be great as an only dog or a companion for another dog. I’m pretty laid-back. I don’t have any bad habits, but I really love people I would fit almost any family dynamic whether you live in an apartment or a big house I would do great. I do understand most commands in Spanish, but I’m learning to understand English. If you think I would make a great addition to your family, please reach out to my rescuer with the information listed above my story text or email only please as calls do not go through and schedule a time to meet with me I am approved for same-day adoption and I look forward to meeting you!

Good with kids, Good with dogs, Good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Pepper is a darling Havanese/Lhasa mix who's about 3 years old and weighs 12 pounds.  This poor little guy was dumped at the Palmdale shelter because his owners were moving.   He's the sweetest, most lovable boy you’ll ever meet who thrives on affection and gentle attention. Pepper adores his squeaky toys, enjoys going for walks, and absolutely melts when it’s time to be brushed. He has a laid-back temperament and may be a little shy at first, but once he feels comfortable, his loving personality shines through. Pepper is great with other dogs and would love a confident doggie companion.  Pepper is gentle and quiet and would best in a home without rowdy young kids.  He is okay on a leash but can get spooked in busy congested urban areas.  He is most at ease exploring the yard and hanging out watching for birds and squirrels.  Pepper would make a wonderful companion for someone looking for a calm, affectionate pup who is happiest soaking up love.  He is neutered, microchipped and up-to-date on vaccines.  If you're interested in meeting him, please fill out the adoption application on our website bichonsandbuddies.com.  Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.January 28, 2026, 3:02 am

Story
Rose is a sweet 9 yr old Havanese Shih Tzu mix. Her previous family used this pretty girl to make puppies for extra cash. When her owner died, she eventually ended up living in a mechanic shop! When we found out about their situation, we immediately sent a volunteer to go and rescue them. Rose is with Rufus, who is possibly her son. Both dogs are very sweet, well behaved and affectionate. Both Rose and Rufus are friendly, and get along well with new people, other dogs and children. Rufus is about 3 yrs old, very sweet, loving and mellow. He gets along well with other dogs, cats and kids. We had him examined by our vet, neutered, fully vaccinated and microchipped. Rose is loving senior, about 9 yrs old, and is possibly Rufus' mother. Rose is a Havanese/ Shih Tzu mix. She is healthy, and we have had her spayed, vaccinated and microchipped. Rose gets along well with other dogs and children, but is very interested in cats, so should go to a home that is cat free. Rose has some previously untreated skin issues, but is otherwise healthy. Both dogs are small, well behaved and extremely loving. They are easy going and don't have any destructive habits like digging, barking or chewing. They are content to just be around someone. They grew up as part of a family and will easily fit into any home. They are low energy and would be perfect for a retired person or someone who works from home. We're looking for an foster or adopter in the Southern California area.
