Story
Sophie is a tiny 15 year old Maltese Poodle mix weighing just under 8 pounds. She is polite gentle and very sweet. Her favorite place is simply near her person. She coexists well with other small dogs and has an easygoing presence. Sophie came into rescue when her owner could no longer care for her. It took her a few days to adjust but she is settling in beautifully and showing her soft affectionate personality. Her eyesight is good and her hearing is still fairly strong for her age. She does have a heart murmur but is not on any medication at this time. She doesn't love being left alone so we are hoping to find her a calm quiet home where someone is around most of the time. Sophie is a lovely little soul looking for comfort companionship and a soft place to land for her golden years. ADOPTION PROCESS: 1.

Story
Ryan is a 1.5 year old Maltese that I brought home last year. It pains me, but my work schedule and other demands on my life have brought me to the place where it seems I am unable to give Ryan the level of care he needs and deserves. He is a very good dog and is house trained. When he is home with me I take him out about 4-5 times a day. He is very playful with other dogs but does exhibit some leash aggression in that he wants to say hi to every dog he sees but if he can’t because of the leash, he’ll start barking and lashing out. He’s been slowly improving on this though.He does have some level of separation anxiety where as soon as you leave him alone in the house you’ll hear him bark but after a few minutes he calms down and can stay alone.Other than those two things, he’s usually very calm around the house and sleeps most of the time. However, he does love to play and loves dog parks and going with you wherever you go. Happy to discuss any questions over a chat!

Story
✅️Currently located in South Korea✅️ Meet Noah🤍 💙 Noah’s Account: @aki.noa.sushi 1. Health • Neutering/Spaying: Completed • Other: Microchipped; had bladder stone surgery and molar extraction. Fully blind in one eye due to cataracts. Experiences coughing when temperatures drop, requiring steroid medication if coughing occurs. Has partial hearing loss. All teeth except molars have been extracted, so he cannot eat hard treats. 2. Rescue Story • Noah was rescued from a breeding facility alongside Aji and Aki before Adogs officially formed. He was adopted, but after his adopter passed away suddenly in September 2024, Noah returned to Adogs. He is looking for a family to help him overcome his grief and begin a new chapter of life. 3. Personality & Habits • With People: Very affectionate and sweet, loves both strangers and familiar people, and often approaches first asking for pets. • With Dogs: Gets along well with other dogs, both familiar and new friends. May show cute jealousy if another dog gets attention. • Separation Anxiety: Calm when left with Aki, though Aki has separation anxiety that affects Noah. If left with another dog or person, he waits quietly. • House Training: Fully pee pad trained (100% accuracy), though he prefers pooping outdoors. He tends to pee near the edge of the pad, so surrounding it with a fence or holder is helpful. • Hygiene/Grooming: Very calm and well-behaved during baths, drying, and brushing. • Walking on Leash: Walks well on a leash without pulling and keeps pace nicely. 4. Special Notes • May bark briefly when a stranger enters the room for the first time. In the evenings, he may bark for 5 minutes normally, or 20–30 minutes if he has extra energy. • Has a strong food drive and eats quickly when excited for meals, so feeding slowly and calmly is recommended.

Story
Meet Provolone 🤍 located in NYC Some dogs just need a chance to show who they really are, and Provolone is one of them. At just 2 years old and only 9 lbs., this Maltese mix boy is the perfect little sidekick. He has a wonderful temperament, is well-mannered in the home, and has no destructive habits. He’s neutered, up to date on vaccines, microchipped, housebroken, and wee pad trained, making him an easy addition to almost any family. When this little stray first arrived at the shelter, he struggled. The noisy, stressful environment was overwhelming for such a gentle soul. But the moment he left the shelter and settled into his foster home, everything changed. The timid little boy blossomed into a happy, affectionate, playful companion who loves life and, most of all, loves people. Provolone has plenty of playful energy and enjoys getting his daily exercise, whether that’s going for walks, exploring new places, or playing with his furry friends. He gets along beautifully with other dogs, cats, and children, making him a fantastic fit for a variety of households. When playtime is over, he’s more than happy to curl up beside you for cuddles, it’s one of his favorite things. His foster describes him as a true keeper, and it’s easy to see why. He’s sweet, loving, even-tempered, and ready to devote himself completely to the person who gives him the forever home he’s been waiting for. Provolone has already proven that all he needed was kindness to let his personality shine. Now he’s ready for the only thing missing from his story, a forever family to call his own. If you are interested in adopting Provolone, please call or message (646) 689 8414. Please fill out the application at AmsterDog.org/application
