Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Meet Moe! Moe is a beautiful little white Maltipoo with a gentle spirit and a heart ready to bond with the right family. Born around March 11, 2025, this sweet boy weighs 10.8 pounds, making him the perfect size for lap snuggles and companionship. Moe came from a hoarding situation where he was one of 29 dogs, so the big world can feel a little overwhelming at first. Because of this, he may take a few minutes to warm up to new people. But once you approach him calmly and give him a few gentle pets, you can almost see the moment he relaxes—then he quickly becomes your loyal little friend. He gets along great with other dogs and truly enjoys their company. He will need to go to a home with another companion dog to help him feel comfortable and confident. Moe’s best friend here is Mitchell, and they would love to be adopted together. With a patient and loving family who will give him time to settle in, he will blossom into a devoted and affectionate companion. Moe is still learning some of the basics, including walking on a leash, but with consistency and kindness he will catch on quickly. If you’re looking for a sweet pup who just needs a little patience to shine, Moe may be the perfect match for Adoption Fee: $400 Apply to adopt Moe: www.adoggie4you.org Give this gentle boy the loving home he’s been waiting for! This dog is currently in Texas; however, it can be transported to Washington, Portland (Oregon), Minneapolis, Milwaukee, Chicago, Des Moines, Omaha, Cincinnati, Lexington KY or all along the East Coast. If transported, there is an additional transport fee of $250. We do not transport to Rhode Island or Massachusetts due to their regulations.

Story
Stevie is a 5 year old, 11.5 lb Mini Poodle and former puppy mill mom who is learning what life is like in a loving home. Originally a bit skittish and anxious, Stevie is a silly and sweet girl with a puppy-like energy (everyone she meets on walks confuses her for a puppy!). She loves snuggling up on the couch, soaking in the sun, and taking long walks. Stevie is a loyal dog who loves sitting nearby (and often *on*) her foster and following them around the house. She’s a fast learner — she’s quickly gotten used the outdoors and is starting to go potty on her walks, leading to less indoor potty accidents. Indoors, she’s learned to use pee pads as well. She did not crate easily at first, but now has learned to enjoy her crate while I am away through crate training and positive associations (feeding in crate, treating in crate, etc.) She rarely whines or barks when I leave the home now and enjoys watching Bluey or listening to music while I’m away (she loves Fleetwood Mac & Kasey Musgraves!) Overnight, she sleeps in her dog bed in my bedroom as the crate was very scary at nighttime for her when she arrived, but I’m optimistic she will be ready for it soon if crating overnight is your wish!

Stevie is missing several teeth so she prefers soft foods (mixing pate into her kibble) and treats (she prefers small pieces of string cheese to dog treats!). 

Stevie truly is a delight — she’s tough and loving beyond her circumstances, gentle with others, curious to the world around her, and excited to join a caring family in her forever home! Stevie is currently being fostered in Cincinnati, OH. Her adoption fee is $450.00.

Story
Introducing Dot! Dot is a 5 1/2-year-old, 8 lb Mini Poodle who survived life as a puppy mill mama and is now slowly learning how to trust the world around her. She loves to cuddle close and has the sweetest little heart. Time, patience, and gentle attention are exactly what Dot needs to continue building confidence and learning what it means to simply be a beloved dog. After six weeks in foster care, she is finally starting to show true happiness, and it has been incredibly rewarding to watch her blossom. Dot is currently about 80% potty trained. She goes outside to pee consistently when taken out 4–5 times a day, though she still occasionally has small accidents and has not yet learned to poop outside. Her foster walks outside with her during potty breaks, which helps her feel safe and comfortable. She does not show much interest in staying outside yet and can still be nervous about unfamiliar sounds and smells. Because Dot strongly dislikes leashes, she will require a securely fenced yard and will most likely never be a “go for walks” type of dog. Her ideal home would be a semi-quiet household with someone patient and understanding who can continue helping her feel safe during outdoor potty time. Dot loves scrambled eggs and chicken and is currently eating a mix of soft and hard dog food. She needs a home filled with kindness, comfort, and gentle encouragement to help her continue her journey toward becoming the cutest little addition to a lucky family. Dot is currently being fostered in the Cincinnati, OH area. Her adoption fee is $450.00.
