Story
When I first came to the animal control place, I was covered with spots! And to make matters worse, my mom and sisters were covered with spots too! I guess we all had the same thing, but I didn’t think that we were that scary that people wouldn’t want to touch us or anything! Then we came into the God’s Dogs and started getting treatment for ringworms, which isn’t’ really worms but a fungal infection on our skin due to our previously poor living conditions. We are still taking a pill and getting baths for our skin, but we shouldn’t be contagious anymore. So, we have been here for 3 weeks now, and our spots are getting smaller, and our hair is coming in nicely. We still don’t have a super full coat, but it is getting there, but what we lack in hair cover, we make up for in personality! My spots are slowing going away and they don’t itch or anything. So, there is no need to be afraid of my spots. I am an very active girl and love to play with the siblings. I am the largest of the 3 sister siblings and weigh 6 pounds on 5.5.25. I also have the curly type piggy or Puggy tail, that seems to run in the family. I love to play with toys and run. I love to run and bounce around. It is a fun game to play with my siblings, especially keeping away with toys. I am a chihuahua dachshund mix foster mom thinks and since we don’t know anything about our dad, our breed is only a guess. But I have these huge radar ears, that I can hear every time you open the refrigerator door. I am already fixed I will be on the small side. But good things come in little packages, right? I am over 3 months old now and would like to find myself a permanent home soon! Will it be with you? $250 In State Adoption Fee (in Texas) $500 Out of State Fee (includes Transportation to your area) $50 Temporary fuel surcharge.

Story
Now, don't tell me you don't remember Fred and Ginger, his ginger haired dance partner ;) If you are a millennial you may not but the REST of us do!! SO, where was I?? Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers are such awesome namesakes for us... we are ATTACHED at the hip to each other and we operate in dance like moves when we are together.... so YES we are a BONDED pair of cuties!! We are lanky chis, most likely Min Pin/Chi mixes with the long and elegant legs and sweet, playful personalities. Ginger is more reserved and shy than her boyfriend Fred. They need to stay in TX because transport would be hard on them. So you have definitely learned some about us... we are young and teeny weeny :) yes that is a word!! We are learning all the home stuff, like leash training, crate and house training and we have excelled at all!! So if you are looking for a lap pup and one that will be one someday.. we are YOUR PUPS!!! Adopt us together and get double the love for LIFE!!! Local adoption only, together $400 (in TX)

Story
Poco is an incredibly sweet, clingy little guy who just wants to be by your side (or in your lap!) all the time. He’s the ultimate Velcro dog and would thrive with someone home often—especially a retiree looking for a loyal shadow. While he gets along with other small dogs, Poco would much prefer to be the only pup in the home so he can soak up all your love and attention. Poco is respectful around cats (in fact, he's a little scared of them!) and would do best in a home with older kids who understand gentle handling. He’s still working on his potty training and may lift his leg, but he's comfortable wearing a belly band in the meantime. If you're looking for a constant companion with a big heart and an even bigger desire to cuddle, Poco might just be your perfect match! Local adoption fee is $200 (in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $450 (includes transport to your area)
