Story
Donny Angel is a spunky little guy! He’s very mobile for his age and like to sneak off with toys and treats for a moment to himself. He’s very much a character! Donny Angel can be fearful and is triggered by quick movements or hands in his face, so we would want to pair him to an adult-only home. He is very much a lap dog and will give you a lot of companionship. He would prefer not to share his forever home with any other dogs. He wants to have your complete attention. This sweet guy is about 5lbs and around 10 years old.

Story
Meet King, a delightful 12-year-old chihuahua x maltese who has spent his entire life with one person. Sadly, his human found themselves overwhelmed with work and unable to provide the care and attention that King deserves. What makes King truly special is his undemanding nature; all he craves is love, and he no longer has that in his life. We are on a heartfelt mission to find King a new family who can fill his days with affection and joy. While King does have a growth on his paw that we are addressing, he is otherwise in good health. He is a social butterfly, getting along famously with people of all ages, and he’s an excellent companion to other dogs as well. King is a deserving soul yearning for a warm and loving home, where he can thrive in the company of those who cherish him.

Story
Meet Muffy, the Maltese with a heart of gold! This sweet, approximately 5-year-old girl has endured hardship but is ready to embrace a life filled with love and joy.

But despite everything she has been through, her resilience shines. Muffy’s gentle disposition and affectionate nature make her the ideal companion for a caring family. She may be small in size, but her capacity to shower you with loyalty and happiness is boundless. Muffy is eager to learn and eager to please, making her a wonderful addition to a compassionate adopter’s family. If you’re ready to provide her with the forever home she deserves, don’t hesitate to apply today and let Muffy’s warm and loving presence light up your life.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Meet Coco. She came in with her 5 baby boys. She has been such a good mommy but is now looking for her own home.  Coco is not good with small children.  It appears she was not well socialized in the past.  She is growly when she meets someone new, but once she warms up, she is extremely loveable and attached to her person.  She was adopted in the past and was wonderful with her mom, but she growled at the grandbaby and new children/people.  She is great on a leash and likes to go places, she doesn't want strangers petting her.  She is located in TX and WON'T be available for out of state adoption.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.September 30, 2023, 11:22 am
