Story
Sweet and spunky! Hi there! I’m Delfina or Daphne– a sweet and spunky 2.5-year-old Poodle Mix, weighing about 15 pounds. I may be small, but I’ve got a big heart and an even bigger personality! Thanks to the wonderful folks at TAP, I was rescued from an LA shelter just in time. I had a broken jaw when they found me, but don’t worry – it’s all healed up now, and I’m feeling better than ever. Now I’m on the lookout for my perfect furever family! I’m full of energy and love to run, play, and explore. Some of my favorite activities include tug toys and going on walks.  I also adore being the center of attention and hanging out with doggie friends. But when the excitement winds down, I’m just as happy snuggling up with you. I’ll even sleep in your arms all night long without moving a muscle — seriously, I’m the ultimate cuddle bug. I’ve got a silly, lovable personality that’s sure to make you laugh. I’m working hard on my potty training — just a few accidents here and there — and I’m a total pro on the leash. I can be a little territorial around other pups, but I truly enjoy their company and love to play once we’re all friends. That said, I do get scared easily and have a big bark when I’m feeling anxious. I also struggle with separation anxiety, so I’d really thrive in a home where I’m not left alone for long stretches. If I get too lonely, I might rummage through the trash to cope.  But hey, I’m healthy overall and already spayed, so I’m ready to go! My dream home would include kiddos (I LOVE attention!) and maybe a furry sibling or two, as long as we hit it off. I seem to get along with cats just fine, too. More than anything, though, I just want to be part of a loving family who’s ready for a loyal, playful, snuggly companion like me. My adoption fee is $450 and that includes spaying/neutering, shots, and microchip.  If you want to take me home, please fill out the form on the website here: https://theanimalpad.org/adoption-application/.     ##2198718##

Story
Meet Chiquita Chiquita is a gentle 10-year-old, 12 lb poodle–schnauzer mix with the sweetest heart. Her world was recently turned upside down when her beloved owner passed away. Through all the changes, Chiquita has shown nothing but love and a longing to be close to people. She adores cuddling, curling up in laps, and simply being near those who care for her. Chiquita has spent most of her life outdoors, so she isn’t fully housebroken yet—but she is eager to learn with patience and kindness. She currently lives peacefully with two other dogs and would do well in a home with furry companions or as the center of someone’s attention. This little soul has so much love left to give. All she needs is a safe, gentle place to call home and a family who will cherish her for the rest of her days. Will you open your heart to Chiquita and give her the second chance she so deeply deserves? If interested in meeting this sweet girl please reach out to her foster: Marta (650)740-0816 martalevison@gmail.comSeptember 4, 2025, 12:06 am

Story
I’m looking to rehome my sweet girl. Her name is Tina, she’s around 13 years old and she’s a senior miniature poodle. I adopted her in 2021, and she’s been my constant companion ever since. Despite her age, she still has bursts of puppy-like energy. She’s very gentle and friendly, has a sweet personality, hardly ever barks, sleeps a lot, and is completely obsessed with her treats. Due to her age she can’t hear very well anymore, but can hear louder noises like clapping. She’s a little anxious and needs a lot of comforting, love and attention. She would do best in a calm, quiet home with a backyard, with someone who’s around most of the day—ideally someone who is retired. It breaks my heart to let her go, but due to some serious personal challenges, I’m no longer able to care for her. I would love to keep in touch and maybe visit her sometimes if possible. If you feel like you might be the right person for Tina, I’d love to hear from you. Dee
