Story
Oodles was adopted by my mother at a Humane Society outside of Pittsburgh in 2021. My mother who is 85 is now having physical and mental issues and can no longer handle having a dog. Oodles really needs a home where he can get out more. I would say the dog is somewhat potty trained. My mother puts potty pads on the floor but was not good at keeping a regular regimen for going out for potty time. I believe it would be easily fixed once the dog is on a schedule, but it does seem to use the potty pads. Everyone loves the dog when they see him. My mother is very upset about letting the dog go, and it would be important for my mother to meet the people who will adopt the dog. It would be great to find someone close by and perhaps my mother could see the dog once in a blue moon. Oodles has been around many dogs and cats so that shouldn’t be a problem if you have other pets. Oodles is about eight years old and has plenty of life and energy it would be nice to see him get out more.

Story
Meet Tex Just over SIX pounds of pure tail-wagging happiness packed into one tiny, adorable package! This little guy is a professional snuggler who loves nothing more than wrapping himself around your neck and soaking up all the love. If you’re looking for a shadow, Tex is your guy! He’ll happily follow you everywhere and make sure you never have to do anything alone. Tex is still a puppy, so he's working on his potty-training skills. He can be a little shy or skittish when meeting new people or when things move too quickly, but once he feels comfortable, his friendly, attention-loving personality shines! He's great with dogs of all sizes and does well with cats, too. Tex came into rescue with some skin issues, but he's on the road to recovery and feeling better every day. He's believed to be a Chug (Chihuahua/Pug mix), although he seems to have inherited more of the Chihuahua body style. He's expected to stay a pretty little guy! If you have room in your heart and a spot around your neck for a professional cuddle buddy, Tex is ready to wrap himself right around you! Local adoption fee is $350(in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $650 (includes transport to your area)

These pups are in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania too!

Story
❤️ MEET VENUS! ❤️ We just cannot believe she is still available for adoption. She is such a sweetheart. Venus’s story is heartbreaking, but her future can be beautiful. 🐾 When Venus first came into rescue, her first week was spent receiving 24/7 hospital care. She was on IV fluids, antibiotics, and pain medication after suffering several broken ribs. We strongly suspect her injuries were the result of being kicked by humans. We also have a strong suspicion that Venus somehow escaped a life as a bait dog in a dog-fighting situation, something that sadly remains a reality for some dogs. Despite everything she has endured, Venus has never lost her love for people. ❤️ Venus is a 2-year-old pocket Pit Bull with soft tan fur, the cutest short little legs, and a heart that is SO much bigger than her 35-pound self. She is the perfect size for snuggling and is fully grown, so she won't be getting any bigger! Venus isn't a fan of cats or other dogs, so she would do best as the only pet in her home. But when it comes to her people, Venus makes up for it with loyalty, affection, and the sweetest personality. She has been through more than any dog should ever have to endure. Now she deserves something simple: A safe home. A soft bed. A loving family. And a lifetime of knowing she is finally safe. Venus is ready to brighten someone's world — and we think she deserves to have hers brightened, too. ❤️ 📩 Message us to learn more about adopting Venus. 📍 Adoptions will take place at the North Fayette PetSmart in Robinson Township, PA. Our Rescue works side by side with that PetSmart! If you're interested in welcoming this precious pup into your family, send us a message! We'll be happy to send you an adoption application. 💲 Adoption Fee: $300 Your puppy's adoption fee includes: 🐶 Spay/neuter 💉 Age-appropriate vaccinations 🪱 Deworming ❤️ Current heartworm and flea prevention 📍 Microchip We look forward to hearing from you!

Story
Please note that this dog is currently located in TX and will be transported once adopted. Our application can be found at haydudeequine.org. Meet Duke! There's a new star in town, and this one has four legs! Meet Duke, a handsome 10-month-old, 45-pound Bulldog/Staffordshire Terrier mix (our best guess) who is ready to find his forever family. Duke is a happy, playful, people-loving pup who thinks everyone he meets is a potential best friend. He's wonderful with other dogs and loves having a canine buddy to play with. His favorite game? FETCH! He'll happily chase a toy, bring it back, and do it all over again. And if there's water involved? Even better! Duke absolutely loves the water, so a family who enjoys outdoor adventures, swimming, or just watching a goofy dog have the time of his life would be right up his alley. At 10 months old, Duke still has plenty of puppy fun in him, but he's also incredibly sweet and eager to be part of a family. He's looking for a home where he can get plenty of love, playtime, and adventures—and maybe a comfy couch for those post-fetch naps. If you're looking for a fun-loving, water-loving, dog-friendly goofball to add some excitement (and a whole lot of love) to your life, Duke might just be your guy! Apply to adopt Duke at haydudeequine.org!
