Story
The sociable Griffin is eager to meet his new family! This adorable 2-month-old (born around June 15, 2025) Maltese/Chihuahua mix weighs just 3.3 pounds and is a charming white and gold pup. He and his sister Gidget are available for adoption—either together or separately—so you can choose the perfect match for your home. Though they would love a home together. Griffin is a sweet, lively puppy who loves to play and cuddle. This handsome boy is ready to find his forever home and promises to bring joy and gleeful moments into your life! As a young pup, he’ll need plenty of chew toys and patience with house training, he is working on it now. He’ll also be ready to be leash trained once fully vaccinated. Griffin is scheduled for neutering soon but is available for adoption now. He’s already microchipped, vaccinated, dewormed, and flea-treated. Due to his small size, we recommend adult-only homes or homes with older children. If you think Griffin would be a perfect fit for your family, don’t wait—apply today and add this delightful boy to your life!

Here is a list of things that should help us answer you in a more timely manner. 1. When you apply please always use the same email address. If we need to look something up later and you used a different email we are often not able to find it. 2. Adopt a Pet and Petfinders ask you to send us an enquiry. This always delays our response. (Why) a. Our biographies are always very detailed. Therefore sending an enquiry asking us to repeat what it says in the biography causes a lot more work and delays our response. b. We are a small non-profit and do not always have the help to answer as many enquiries as we get. c. Again our Biographies are very detailed and if you just click the link near the bottom of their bio you can fill out an application which we will respond to. 3. For the AFC website (scroll down to the bio at the bottom it says (apply to adopt today- click that link) www.animalfriendsconnect.org 4. For Petfinders ( scroll down to the biography then click the adoption link) http://animalfriendsconnect.org/adoption-application-dogs/ 5.

Story
My brothers, Mickey, Johnny and myself just turned one! We were surrendered by our family to KKPR to alter and rehome us. We have been well-cared for and well-loved. However, we have not been exposed to new people. So, might be shy at first. I am pretty relaxed and chill. I have not been cat tested yet, but Kimie is confident I could cohabitate with a dog savvy cat. As far as potty-training goes, we prefer going outside, if we are not let outside, we will use potty pads.

Story
I was recently surrendered as me and my five littermates were unintended and are all in need of foster or forever homes. We were born 8/20/25, are fully vetted and are ready for our forever homes. Kimie has not been able to get to know each of us separately. However, she does know this...We are all pretty easygoing. We like to play but also like to rest, cuddle and give kisses. We have not yet been cat-tested by Kimie, but she feels that any of us would get along with a dog-savvy cat. Since we have not had a lot of socialization, we tend to be shy at first. As far as potty-training goes, we prefer going outside. However, if we are not let outside, we will use potty pads.

I also have an overbite, which Kimie thinks is adorable. Thus far, it has not affected my chewing, however, it should be watched closely by a Veterinarian.
