Story

At just two years old, this adorable Maltipoo may be small, but his personality is anything but! He’s a loyal little guy with a big heart and an even bigger sense of responsibility. Once he bonds with his person, he takes his job as “official protector” very seriously — maybe just a little too seriously. He loves his human deeply and prefers not to share the spotlight. Because of his strong attachment style, he would do best as the only dog in the home. He wants all your love, attention, and lap space to himself — and honestly, he’ll return it tenfold. We’re not sure how he feels about cats yet, so slow introductions would be key. This sweet boy would thrive in a home with respectful kids over 12 who understand that even cute, fluffy dogs need personal space. He’s incredibly loving, affectionate, and happiest when he’s close to his person — but he does need clear, consistent boundaries to help him feel secure and balanced. With structure, patience, and positive reinforcement, this little Maltipoo will blossom into the most devoted companion you could ask for. He just needs someone who can lovingly remind him that he doesn’t have to run the household — he just has to be adored in it. Ready to meet your pint-sized protector? July 12, 2026, 12:12 am

Laguna Woods, CA

Size

Story

I purchased Dolly 5 years ago from a neighbor who bred their miniature poodle to a toy poodle male. Because they had kids and cats in their home Dolly has a special love for them and grew up in my house where I already had a dog and several cats. She is outgoing and likes meeting new people. Dolly is the type of dog you can take anywhere. We often go out to dinner with a patio and when I lay her towel down she will stay quietly. She also flew across country in the cabin with me! I'm forced to rehome her because I have terminal brain cancer and need to find a good home for her before I'm gone. My other dog, Artie, is a 12 yr. old very chill 25 lb. Wheaton Terrier and Poodle mix. If possible, I'd love it if someone adopted both of them, but if it came down to it, getting Dolly a good home is paramount.

Story

Meet Millie! Millie is a sweet, playful girl who will be your best friend for life once she earns your trust.

Millie is active and would thrive in a home who loves walks, preferably with someone who works from home. Millie is not a good fit for a quiet or senior household. She gets along with most dogs but would prefer to be the only pet so she can soak up all the attention.

(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less

Details

Story

Oreo is a handsome 3-year-old, 22-pound black and white Poodle mix with a soft, non-shedding coat. Like most Poodles, hell need regular professional grooming throughout his life, and thankfully hes a great sport about it. Oreo is a calm, well-mannered companion who settles beautifully into his home routine. Hes happiest lounging near his people, going for leisurely walks, or proudly carrying around his favorite little football toy. He walks nicely on leash, is well behaved in the home, and has an easygoing personality that makes him a joy to live with. Oreo is affectionate with both men and women and enjoys their company. He gets along well with other dogs and will tolerate cats, but we believe he would be happiest as the center of someones world in a home where he doesnt have to share attention. While Oreo is about 90% the perfect dog, he does appreciate having his personal space respected in certain situations. He doesnt like being unexpectedly picked up or physically moved. He responds much better to positive reinforcement, treats, and gentle redirection than physical handling. His foster family has learned what helps him feel comfortable, and consistency has allowed him to thrive. Oreo is looking for a quiet, predictable home with experienced adults who understand that every dog has boundaries. He would do best in a home without children or visiting grandchildren and with minimal coming and going. An adopter willing to continue the routines and positive handling techniques that have made him successful will be rewarded with an incredibly loyal, loving companion. Oreo could also stand to lose a few pounds, so daily walks and sensible portions will help him reach a healthier weight while giving him an activity he genuinely enjoys. If youre looking for a devoted, calm, and handsome best friend who will happily settle into your daily routine, Oreo may just be your perfect match. Oreo's adoption fee is $400 and includes his neuter, microchip, vaccines/deworming/flea treatment. Please complete our adoption application at www.lovebugsrescue.org He is being fostered in Lake Forest, CA

Gimpy

Poodle (Miniature)

Male, Senior

Newport Beach, CA

Size

(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less

Details

Good with kids, Good with dogs, Good with cats, House-trained,

Story

This is Gimpy. He has successfully undergone surgery to remove that heavy growth (he was dropped off the shelter with it), and he is feeling lighter than ever. At 11–12 years old and just under 15 pounds, this resilient senior is officially in his "glow-up" era and looking for a forever home to celebrate his new lease on life.While the physical burden is gone, Gimpy’s recovery is a journey. Because he spent so long compensating for that growth, he hasn’t quite realized he can use that leg fully yet. He is looking for a patient home that understands that it will take some time for him to start using that leg, he's gone so long without using it. Aside from his physical therapy journey, Gimpy is the same charming gentleman we fell in love with. He is a pro lounger who has mastered the art of the afternoon nap, but he is also an explorer at heart; despite limited sight and hearing, his nose works overtime to sniff out new adventures. He is a social butterly who coexists peacefully with other dogs and would likely be just fine with feline friends. He is also house-trained and acts like a total pro as long as you keep a simple routine of going outside after naps and meals. Most importantly, he is low maintenance—no marathons or hiking required here, just a quick "business trip" outside and some quality couch time.Gimpy needs a quiet, loving environment where he can continue his rehabilitation. If you have a soft spot for seniors and the patience to help him rediscover his strength, he has a heart full of gratitude waiting for you.Adoption App (Gimpy’s Favorite): https://muttsinneed.org/apply/adoptFoster App: https://muttsinneed.org/apply/foster
