Story
Ebony and Ivory are a bonded pair looking for a forever home together.Ebony (14 lbs.) and Ivory (8 lbs.) were local strays. They were in terrible shape when found and horribly matted. Now that these sweet girls are safe with AHF, they`re looking and feeling so much better. Ivory loves to cuddle, and Ebony is more playful but loves cuddling too. They`re both very loving. We think Ivory is a maltese mix and Ebony may be a schnauzer/shih tzu mix. Both girls walk on leash. They do not get crated when their foster leaves the house and do fine confined to a large room. They get along with the other dogs in their foster home and have been friendly with kids they`ve met at adoption events. Ebony seems potty trained and Ivory is mostly; she`ll sometimes use potty pads if they`re out for other pups.If you have room in your heart and home for Ebony and Ivory, please fill out an application so you can meet them and learn more.

Good with dogs, Needs special attention, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Popcorn is about 18 lbs., 15 years old and according to Google lens, a West highland terrier. Animal Care Services thought he was a Maltese mix and foster mom thinks he could be a Schnauzer/Maltese mix but knows for sure that he is the cutest scruffy EVER! His journey hasn't been all snuggles and treats as he lived on someone's apartment patio for years, lying in poop, grass and other debris until Animal Care Services came for him and God's Dogs Rescue was able to save the little scamp. While he still loves his humans, other gentle pups his size (cats unknown) and his squishy toys and chewy, understandably he has a few emotional scars especially regarding vet visits and grooming. Slow, patient progress in these areas has helped him be more confident, but will need a patient adopter to help him adapt. Things that make Popcorn super happy are spending time with his humans after he gets to know them, car rides and walks in the park. He loves, loves his squishy toys and generally carries one around with him. His most favorite game is for his person to chase him and pretend to take his squishy away. He also like to run zooms and if there isn't a person to play with he will often throw his toys for himself. Doesn't that just make you want to throw his stuffies so he can play?? He's a healthy guy for his age with just a few old man issues (beginnings of cataracts) that he takes supplements for and should continue taking. His liver enzymes were high when tested but he is on a med to help them normalize. Can you give this boy the right lap to live in?? He needs very patient/knowledgeable adopters, no children- adult only because he will bite if afraid... It is a work in progress but he is becoming the goofy boy he was meant to be while living on the nasty hot and freezing porch for most of his 14 yrs :( GIVE HIM A CHANCE!!! Local adoption only $200 (in TX)

Story
Meet Lulu, a sweet 12-year-old Maltese/Havanese mix who’s looking for a quiet, loving home to spend her golden years. She was recently surrendered through no fault of her own—her aging owner could no longer care for her due to health issues. Now, Lulu is ready to begin a new chapter with someone who will cherish her just as much. Lulu is gentle, affectionate, and calm. She enjoys soft beds, slow strolls, and being near her people. While she may be a senior, she still has plenty of love to give and will make a wonderful, loyal companion. If you’re looking for a mellow, loving dog who just wants to be by your side, Lulu is the perfect match. Give this sweet girl the comfort and care she deserves—adopt Lulu and make her final chapter the happiest one yet.

Spayed or Neutered,
Story
🍂 Blinky: A Gentle Heart in a Tiny Package There’s a special comfort in the quiet presence of Blinky, a senior Maltese who has weathered life with grace and kindness. A former stray, Blinky has some dental issues, and likely experiences oral discomfort, yet he remains polite, affectionate, and full of gentle love while we determine the best care plan for him. He thrives in calm, patient homes where his slow, sweet ways can be appreciated. Blinky enjoys quiet laps, soft pats, and the peaceful rhythm of everyday life — a gentle companion for those who treasure warmth, patience, and a quietly loyal friend. Invite Blinky into your home, and you’ll discover the joy of a dog whose heart is bigger than his tiny frame, and whose presence brings calm, comfort, and quiet love. Hear what Blinky's foster has to say about him! "Blinky’s happy place is the yard or your lap. He’s blind and mostly deaf so the yard is a wonderful place for him to feel the textures under his feet and take in all the smells. So far he hasn’t minded any type of weather—not cold, not rain. He loved the snow today using his nose to throw it up in the air. He is also content to curl up beside you if you are working on the computer or on the couch while you watch TV. At dinner time he will lay on the wood floor (easier to feel your footsteps). He likes napping close by while smelling the food aromas. He is can learn to find things in the house if you keep things in place. He has been able to find the water bowl on his own. He is crate trained and will sleep in his crate at night."
