PLEASE NOTE! WE ARE A TEXAS-BASED RESCUE. THIS DOG IS CURRENTLY IN TEXAS AND WILL BE TRANSPORTED TO YOUR STATE ONCE ADOPTED. Our application can be found at haydudeequine.org. 🌌🐾 Ewok: The Cutest Little Thing in the Galaxy! 🐾🌌 “Yub nub!” (That's Ewok for “Please adopt me!” 😉) Calling all Star Wars fans! A very special creature has arrived from a galaxy far, far away… okay, fine, she's from Texas, but with a face like that, we're pretty sure she's intergalactic royalty! Meet Ewok, a 1-year-old, 12-pound Shih Tzu with the fluffiest little face this side of Endor! With her black-and-white coat, soulful eyes, and adorable teddy bear appearance, she's basically a real-life Ewok. The only thing missing is her own tiny hood and a spot on the Millennium Falcon! 🚀 Ewok can be a little shy when meeting new people, but don't worry—she doesn't need a Jedi mind trick to come around! Give her a little patience, kindness, and a few minutes to assess the situation, and she'll soon be ready to join your fan club. Once you're officially part of her inner circle, prepare for maximum snuggle mode. This little girl is a professional cuddlebug who believes the best place in the universe is right next to her favorite human. Forget saving the galaxy—she'd rather save you a spot on the couch! She's also good with other dogs, so she's open to having a furry copilot for her adventures. Ewok is looking for a loving family who will help her feel safe, give her time to warm up, and remind her every day that she's loved. In return, she'll offer endless cuteness, loyal companionship, and enough snuggles to power the Death Star. ❤️ The Force is strong with this one… especially when treats and cuddles are involved! Ready to welcome your very own little Ewok into your family? Don't let this tiny Wookiee fly off to another galaxy without you! 🐾 Apply to adopt Ewok at haydudeequine.org!

The Social Butterfly in a Teddy Bear Costume! 🐾 8 months old | 20 lbs | Poodle x Shih Tzu mix | Professional People-Lover Have you ever met someone who has NEVER met a stranger? Congratulations, you're about to! Meet Cole, an 8-month-old Poodle x Shih Tzu mix who believes the world is full of friends he just hasn't hugged yet. 😂❤️ At 20 pounds, Cole is the perfect size for adventures, cuddles, and making himself the center of attention wherever he goes. He LOVES everyone and everything, and his social calendar is basically booked solid. People? AMAZING! New experiences? EXCITING! Life in general? ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC! Cole is an active, busy little guy who likes to keep things moving. He's still a puppy, after all, and he's got places to go, things to investigate, and friends to make! He's also a loving sweetheart who is more than happy to share his affection with his favorite humans. He's currently working on his house training, so his future family should be prepared to continue helping him master that important life skill. With patience, consistency, and positive reinforcement, he'll keep making progress. Cole would love a family ready for all the fun, laughter, affection, and occasional puppy shenanigans that come with a young, outgoing pup. If you're looking for a happy little sidekick who will enthusiastically join you for life's adventures and then soak up all the love you have to give, Cole might just be your guy! Fair warning: Cole may cause excessive smiling, spontaneous laughter, and an uncontrollable urge to tell everyone you meet about your ridiculously adorable dog. Side effects are generally considered permanent. 😉 Ready to make Cole part of your family? Apply at haydudeequine.org! ❤️

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Meet London! London is a fun, hyper, loving, and playful Shih Tzu who is looking for a fresh start and a family to call her own. After her owner sadly ended up in the hospital, London and her four siblings found themselves loose on a large property. It took a dedicated two-day trapping session by our team to bring them all safely into our rescue. She arrived heavily matted and flea-infested, but she has been cleaned up, vetted, and is now ready to let her true personality shine! London is a total blast and has that classic, big Shih Tzu personality. She is a bundle of joy who loves to play, though she does give affectionate play bites when she gets excited, so a home with older children who understand puppy-like play would be best. She is also quite a vocal girl and will let you know when she has something to say! London is still working on her potty training and will need a patient family willing to help her learn the ropes. As a Shih Tzu, she will also require consistent brushing and regular professional grooming to keep her coat looking and feeling its best. Health & Medical Status: Spayed Microchipped & fully vaccinated Heartworm/Tick-borne disease negative (4DX Negative) Current on ProHeart 12 (heartworm prevention) and Bravecto (flea/tick prevention) Adoption Details: Adoption Fee: $450 Location: Currently in Texas Out-of-State Transport: Can be transported for an additional $250 fee to Washington, Portland (Oregon), Minneapolis, Milwaukee, Chicago, Des Moines, Omaha, Cincinnati, Lexington (Kentucky), and various locations along the East Coast. (Please note: Due to strict state regulations, we cannot transport dogs to Rhode Island or Massachusetts). Ready to bring this fun-loving girl home? Apply today at www.adoggie4you.org!

Story
Meet Biscuit! 🐾❤️ Biscuit is an adorable 12-month-old Bichon Shih Tzu mix with a sweet and gentle personality. He is a little more reserved when he first meets someone, but once he feels comfortable, his playful and loving personality begins to shine. Biscuit has a very special bond with his brother, Crumpet, and absolutely loves being with him. The two enjoy playing together and provide each other with comfort and companionship. Biscuit also loves spending time with his other siblings and is happiest when he has furry friends around to play with. Because Biscuit can be a little shy at first, he would do best with a patient family willing to give him time to settle in and build trust at his own pace. Once he knows he is safe, he becomes a fun, playful little guy who enjoys being part of the family. Biscuit is looking for a forever home where he can continue to gain confidence, experience new things, and enjoy plenty of love, patience, and companionship. If you’re looking for a gentle little dog who may take a little time to warm up but has a sweet and playful personality waiting to emerge, Biscuit could be your perfect match! 🐶💕 https://adopt.animalsfirst.com/animal/6890dfb5f10775d76802b69a/6abe73d93ad45cd65607df9c

Meet Muffin! 🐾❤️ Muffin is an adorable 12-month-old Bichon Shih Tzu mix who is as sweet as his name! This little guy has a gentle, loving personality and is happiest when he is close to his people. Muffin is a true cuddle bug. He loves sitting in your lap, being held, and soaking up all the affection he can get. He enjoys being near his people and would happily spend a quiet afternoon curled up beside you. Muffin also has a curious and playful side. During the day, one of his favorite things to do is sit out on the deck and look around, taking in everything happening around him. He enjoys watching the world go by and being part of the family’s daily activities. When he’s ready for some fun, Muffin enjoys playing with other dogs and cats. He is social and playful and would love having furry friends to interact with. Muffin is also crate trained, giving his new family a great foundation as he settles into his forever home. He is a young dog who is ready to continue learning, exploring, and experiencing all the wonderful things life has to offer. Muffin would love a family who will include him in their daily life, give him plenty of affection, and appreciate his sweet, gentle personality. Whether he’s curled up in your lap, playing with his furry friends, or sitting on the deck watching the world go by, Muffin is simply happy to be with his people. If you’re looking for a loving little companion who enjoys cuddles, playtime, and being part of the family, Muffin may be your perfect match! 🐶💕 https://adopt.animalsfirst.com/animal/6890dfb5f10775d76802b69a/6ac17ad0a5bb39ea1706a426

New Horizons, Juno, and Cassini are ready for their fresh starts! These friendly and spunky little pups are looking for families who can give them plenty of playtime, attention, and enrichment. They are full of energy and will keep your life brimming with laughter and joy. These three do well with other dogs, but we don't know how they are with cats. Any introductions to resident pets should be done slowly. They will likely do well with gentle, older kids who are comfortable around jumpy, excitable dogs. If you're ready to welcome home one of these cuties, make an adoption appointment to meet them today!

Zeus is major best friend material. This handsome guy is fun, sweet, and ready for his fresh start! Zeus falls head over heels for his person and is looking for a home where his family is home often. He gets lonely being left behind - he just wants to be your sidekick through it all! We don't know how Zeus is with other dogs or cats, so any introductions to resident pets should be done slowly. Zeus will likely do well with older kids who can handle him gently. Because he can be a chatty guy, especially when left at home, he may not be a fit for an apartment or condo with shared walls. If you're ready to welcome home your new little companion, make an adoption appointment to meet Zeus today!

Story
Animal Information: Meet Opal. At 8 years old and just 10 pounds, this little Papillon mix is all about the simple things in life: a cozy lap, a little affection, and someone to call her own. Opal is a sweet girl who loves climbing into your lap for some quality cuddle time. She’s friendly with staff and has been kenneled with other dogs, though she tends to get pushed around by her canine companions. We think it’s time this little lady got the chance to be someone’s favorite Foster Profile: Opal (affectionately called 'Izzy' in her foster home) has settled in well to the PNW and is ready to find her forever home. She quickly was at ease with everyone in her foster home, fell in love with a soft blanket on the couch, and is enjoying all things in her foster home. She is house trained, walks well on leash, loves cuddling up on the couch and enjoying the slower things in life.  She's sleeping through the night in her crate, enjoys watching all the kitchen-activities and will happily accept any pets that some her way.  Adoption Info: Adoption fee is $575 which includes spay/neuter, core vaccinations Rabies and DPPV per AVMA standards, any indicated preventative care, heartworm test, microchip with lifetime registration, and recent health check with a veterinarian. Adoption fee may be tax deductible as Dog Gone Seattle is a 501c3 organization (ID 81-5101166). Apply Online: www.doggoneseattle.org/adoption-application Animal History: This dog was transferred from Tulare Shelter, and will be transferred via Furry Freight, arriving to foster care on 10/25 and available for adoption in the greater Seattle area once evaluated in foster care.November 9, 2026, 2:46 pm
