Story
~~Although we do our very best to make sure your new pup is in tiptop health before adoption, things could drastically change a month later.  Since we don’t have a long health history of your adopted dog, we can only treat the pet for whatever symptoms present during the initial exam and follow up exams.~ Health: ***** No obvious health issues found during vet exam ***** Temperament: Meet Ozzie! This adorable maltipoo is almost 2 years old and weighs just 3.6 lbs, making him the perfect travel companion to take with you wherever you go! Ozzie is incredibly sweet and, although he may be a tad shy at first, he warms up quickly to those he trusts. He’s looking for an adult-only home, as his small size makes him better suited for an environment without children. Ozzie is a good baby who’s full of love and joy, ready to bring happiness to his forever family. If you’re ready to welcome this little bundle of joy into your life, apply today! Ozzie is just waiting for you! -- Where did he come from: Breeder Release  Adoption: ***** $900.00 ***** Weight: 3.6 lbs.

Story
Hi, I'm Blue Bell. I was adopted out as a puppy from RHS but my family could no longer care for me. I LOVE human attention. I get along with other dogs, but I do want to make sure I've got your full attention!!! My dental care was basically nonexistent, so I had to have all my teeth pulled. I feel much better and it doesn't bother me. I'm not a fan of being brushed or groomed, although you can work with me on that. It's been a bit rough for me lately, but I'm ready to trade in my past for a future filled with love and belly rubs. I promise to be the sweetest companion you could ask for. So, what do you say? Ready to give an old girl like me a chance? Here's how to meet me: Meet the Adoption Criteria. Before you do anything else, make sure you meet our adoption criteria. You must be at least 21 years old. You must live within a 60-mile radius of Richardson, Texas. You must share veterinary records for all pets currently in your home and all pets owned in the last five years. All pets in the home must be spayed or neutered. If you rent your home, you must provide verification that pets are allowed on the property. You must be willing to be interviewed by an adoption counselor and you must undergo a home visit from an RHS representative. Apply. You can complete an application at an MTP event or complete it online by either clicking the button below or the “Adopt” button beneath the pet’s photo in the listings above. Phone Interview or Attend a Meet the Pets (MTP) event. This is a great opportunity to meet the pet you are interested in and see if you connect. We hold these events once a month on Saturday from 1:00-3:00 p.m. We post the pets who are expected to attend on Friday evening on our Facebook page. For exact details and locations, view our event calendar. If an event is over a week away, a counselor may contact you for a phone interview. Home Visit. If all the steps above are completed satisfactorily, we will set up a home visit where you can meet the pet you are interested in again and the pet can meet other pets in the family. We will try to send the foster parent so you can learn more about how the pet is in a home environment. Complete Adoption. If all feel it is a good match, we will schedule the adoption at MTP or an off-site location. The applicant will need to complete the adoption contract and pay the adoption fee. Our adoption fee is $250 for adult dogs, $300 for puppies (under 1 year) and $125 for cats. Discounts are available for senior-aged pets. APPLY HERE: www.richardsonhumanesociety.org ##492095##

Story
My name is Singleton. I am a 13-month old MAltese boy and I’m kinda shy at first. I weigh approximately 7 pounds. I am great with other dogs. My foster mom does not know about cats and me. I am too shy to be with kids and toddlers. I am crate trained but spent my life in a crate before being rescued so I am not a fan of being crated. I do need a home with another dog to live with. When I am in someone arms, I like to snuggle and hug. I love mealtime! I am neutered, current on shots, heartworm negative and microchipped.

Story
JoJo (Chewie) was a code red and on his last day at a local shelter. He was very fearful, but is now happy and thriving in his new foster home. JoJo has a sweet temperament & gets along with small dogs. He loves his stuffed toys & keeps them close. He makes sure they surround him at times. He is a Toy Hoarder. He also loves to snuggle & is a great sleeping partner. He enjoys a quick outside zoomie, but not a big outdoorsman. Jojo is not a yard lounger. He is a full time indoor pup. He will probably do best as an only dog. He is very attached to his foster Mom & would prefer not sharing her with other pups. He likes to be the center of your attention. He is working on potty training & catching on quickly. He will make someone a wonderful loving companion.    ##2436874##

Meet Clover who is a six year old Maltese.  Someone dumped him under a slab of concrete at an elementary school in Dallas. His claws were overgrown and he was in bad shape.  He was super scared of people. He is super bonded to his owners but Clover does not do well with children or other dogs.  He is very loved and this is super hard on the family. . He’s very loving toward them.. He resourse guards the Mom and doesn't want the child around her Mom. . He is in excellent health and sure is adorable!   He just had a check up and full blood work panel due to having a sentive stomach. He does require good quality dog food, and doesn’t eat much. He’s potty trained, and extremely loving but will take love and patience for him to get to know you and trust you.  He weighs 13 lbs.  He loves to follow his Mom around and likes for her to go outside with him.  He is super affectionate with them as well.

Here’s a sweet adoption bio for Cashew:     ---   Meet Cashew! This tiny 4-pound Maltese may be small in size, but he’s overflowing with love and sweetness. Cashew is a total lovebug who wants nothing more than to be your constant companion—your little pocket pup who goes everywhere with you. He rides great in the car, is crate trained, and is working hard on potty training in his foster home.   Cashew has been through a lot. After suffering a serious injury, one of his legs had to be amputated—but don’t worry, he doesn’t let that slow him down one bit! He hops along happily, keeping up with the other dogs like a champ. His resilience is just as impressive as his affectionate nature.   Because of his tiny size, Cashew needs a home without small children to keep him safe. What he needs most is a family who will shower him with love and never let him feel alone again. If you’re looking for a devoted little buddy who will melt into your arms and follow you to the ends of the earth, Cashew is your guy.
