Story
Hi, my name is Nyx 🤍 I’m a Schnauzer–Maltese mix boy, about 1 year old, and I weigh around 5kg (11 lb). I’m still very young—just beginning to learn what the world is like. I was rescued from an animal hoarding situation. More than 80 dogs were crowded into a small space where it was hard to even breathe. There was no protection, no arms to hold me. I survived each day by quietly protecting myself. Anxiety was part of everyday life. Even food meant competition. In that place, I didn’t cry, and I didn’t hope—I just endured, silently. Thankfully, I was rescued and brought to a training center. The good news is that my body is surprisingly healthy. But in my heart, traces of that past still remain, making me a little cautious at first. When I first arrived, I was shy and unsure. But with treats and gentle patience, I slowly began to come closer. It turns out I missed human touch more than anyone realized. I really wanted to be held, to feel warmth— and I show that longing with my whole little heart. In new environments, I may seem timid at first. But if you give me just a little time, I’ll come to you on my own and quietly ask, “Please love me.” I’ve never lived alone before, so I may have some separation anxiety. That’s why I’m hoping for a home where someone can be with me often and help me feel safe. I get along well with other dogs and know how to interact gently without conflict. Everything about home life is new to me. Living inside a house, going on walks, spending ordinary days with people— I’m learning all of it, one step at a time. I’m only one year old. Still so young, and only now beginning to discover the world. I’m looking for a family who will teach me with love, who won’t scold me for mistakes, and who will gently say, “It’s okay.” I’m a dog who deeply longs for human love. Affectionate, sweet, and always looking to my person. I’m waiting— for a forever family who will hold me in their warm arms and never let me go 🤍

Story
Hi, my name is Schuna🤍 I’m a female Schnauzer, weighing about 5kg (11 lb), and I’m only one year old—still just a baby. I was rescued from an animal hoarding situation. More than 80 dogs were crammed into a tiny space where it was hard to breathe. There were no arms to hold me, no one to protect me. I had to survive by guarding myself, all on my own. Every day was filled with anxiety. Every moment felt like competition. In that place, I didn’t even cry— I just endured… and endured again. Thankfully, I was rescued and brought to a training center. After my health check, everyone was surprised— my body was miraculously healthy. But in my heart, those memories are still deeply there. The moment I saw my trainer for the first time, I clung to their leg, almost desperately, begging to be touched. That’s how much I had missed human hands. That’s how badly I wanted to be held. With my tiny body, I was pouring out my whole heart. I truly love people. I’m very affectionate, I focus only on my person, and I find comfort and safety in human touch. I’ve never lived alone before, so I do have separation anxiety. That’s why I’m hoping for a home where someone can be with me most of the time, helping me feel secure. I get along well with other dogs, and I know how to socialize gently without fighting. Everything about home life is new to me. Living in a house, going on walks, spending ordinary days with people— I’m learning all of it, step by step. I’m only one year old, still so young. I’m looking for a family who will teach me with love, who won’t scold me when I make mistakes, and who will softly say, “It’s okay.” I’m a dog who wants to be loved— deeply, desperately. Affectionate, devoted, a dog who knows only people. Now, I hope for a day when I don’t have to cling and beg for love, but can naturally curl up in arms that are truly mine. I’m waiting— for a family who will hold me warmly and never let me go 🤍
