Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Meet Gus – Your New Best Friend!  Gus is a lovable Pug mix with a heart as sweet as they come. Through no fault of his own, he found himself owner surrendered to a shelter, but he's ready to leave that chapter behind and find the forever family he deserves. Gus can be unsure of meeting new people at first, and may be a little shy and territorial. Once he knows you, he will be your best friend for life. He will welcome you with kisses, happy jumps, lots of tail wags.  When Gus was owner surrendered, we were told that he is potty trained and does know how to use a bell to alert when needing to use the bathroom. He is also not much of a barker, gets along great with dogs, rides well in a car, and walks well on leash.  Gus is neutered, 4DX negative, microchipped, current on all vaccinations, and protected with ProHeart 12 and Bravecto.  His adoption fee is $400. To apply to adopt Gus, visit www.adoggie4you.org. Gus is currently located in Texas but can be transported to Washington, Portland (Oregon), Minneapolis, Milwaukee, Chicago, Des Moines, Omaha, Cincinnati, Lexington (Kentucky), and locations along the East Coast for an additional $250 transport fee. Please note that transport is not available to Rhode Island or Massachusetts due to state regulations.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.August 12, 2026, 2:12 pm

Story
Lily the Chug Are you looking for a small bundle of energy full of love, antics, & sass to liven up your home? Then look no farther than Lily the chug (3/4 pug, 1/4 chihuahua with a whole lotta chi attitude)! This long legged, grumpy faced little minx has adorable ears that either stand up at attention or rest crossed atop her head. Her overbite, often with her lip stuck on her teefers gives her adorable expressions. Lily has no enemies, loving to play-play-play with dogs & people of all ages & sizes. At her foster mom’s house, she cavorts with a 90# Great Pyrenees as much as she does with a pair of pugs. She’d also like to play with the cats, but she is too hyper for them & gets swatted. Lily does calm down to cuddle & actively seeks attention. Lily was a neglected outdoor pup until her surrender to God’s Dogs Rescue, so is still working on her housebreaking. She almost has it down pat with use of a doggy door. You will never experience a dull moment with this petite cutie in your life! Attributes: Housebreaking in progress. Good with doggie door HIGH energy Local adoption fee is $350(in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $650 (includes transport to your area)

Story
Meet Puggy Sue! Puggy Sue is a sweet 10-year-old Pug/Chihuahua mix who is ready to find a loving family to spend her golden years with. This little lady is the perfect mix of easygoing and affectionate. She loves being with her people and is happiest when she can curl up on the couch and relax by your side. She also enjoys her chew toys and has plenty of love to give! Puggy Sue is house trained, crate trained, good in the car, and walks nicely on a leash. She does well with kids and other dogs, making her a wonderful companion for many types of families. At 10 years old, Puggy Sue isn’t looking for a crazy adventure—she’s looking for someone who will appreciate her gentle, loving nature and give her a cozy spot on the couch. If you’re looking for a sweet little companion who will happily be your shadow and your couch buddy, Puggy Sue may be your girl! All of our dogs are spayed or neutered, up to date on age appropriate vaccinations, microchipped and if over 6 months of age, heartworm tested and on heartworm preventative in their foster home. We require an approved application to meet any of our dogs. We do not have a shelter location and will not arrange a meeting without an approved application. We strive to make sure the bios provided for our dogs are complete and accurate; we do understand that mistakes happen, however, so if you absolutely cannot find the answer to your question in the dog's bio, you can contact us for more information. We require a home visit for each dog we adopt out, so we adopt within a 2 hour radius of Dayton, OH. If you are outside of this radius, we encourage you to contact your local rescue or shelter.   August 12, 2026, 9:58 pm

Story
Ralphie is a spunky, snuggly, 5 year old Beagle/English Bulldog mix. He has been our family pet since he was a puppy but due to our toddler’s allergies, we are looking for the perfect home for him. He has a big, goofy personality and lives for walks, swimming, fetch and any food scraps that hit the floor. His love language is quality time as he will patiently wait on the couch for you to come snuggle at the end of the day. Ralph would do great with an individual, couple or family that is active and excited to make Ralphie a permanent family member.

Story
Are you ready for fun? Sassy little Jianna is waiting to meet you! She's a playful, silly young girl with an adorable smile. Jianna says hello with a play bow. She loves toys and treats and playing with other dogs. She's a petite little thing, about 1 year old and fully grown at 17 pounds. She's a Heinz 57 varieties-type mixed breed girl. We're guessing some blend of terrier breeds, maybe some Boston Terrier? Honestly, we have no clue, we just know she's adorable and fun. She came to the rescue with her sister Kiki, they both have adorable little bob tails. Jianna is a bit timid in new situations and when meeting new people but she warms up quickly if you have treats. She's best suited to a home with a confident, friendly dog who can help her navigate her new life. If you'd like to meet Jianna, please fill out a dog adoption application at dreamhouserescue.org. We are happy to arrange a private meet with an approved adopter. You can meet Jianna at our weekly adoption event, Saturday 11:30am-1:30pm at PetSmart Eastgate. Our fully-vetted adoptable dogs go to prospective homes for a one-week trial period to make sure the dog and home are the right fit before an adoption is finalized. We only adopt dogs into homes where all current pets are spayed/neutered and current on vaccines and heartworm and flea and tick prevention. We do check veterinary references to make sure adopters are compliant with standard veterinary care. Our adoptable dogs are spayed/neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, heartworm tested, dewormed and current on flea and tick and heartworm prevention.
