Story
Meet Maximus!!!! He is quite the combination of Chihuahua and Pomeranian. Two of the most opinionated breeds around. Maximus is about 7 years old and has a personality all his own. He is only for experienced Chihuahua or small breed owners. Maximus is just like many of your typical small breeds. Once he knows you, he loves you. He is extremely cute and food motivated which helps in winning him over. Maximus must go into an adult only home with very minimal access to children. He does not do well with commotion, loud noises or anyone rushing up to him. All the things children like to do. His ideal home is a retired couple or individual that can devote time and energy to his needs. Being a semi-senior he does not require extensive exercise or stimulation. A comfy couch, some walks and a lot of treats and he is a happy boy. Maximus has a clean bill of health and recently had a dental so he is ready for his next chapter. If you think Maximus could be the perfect fit, please go to bfdaaa.com to complete an application. September 14, 2025, 6:22 pm

Such a sweet loving dog. I took him in for a friend who was moving and could not have pets. I have to rehome him because I work too much and I’m hardly home and he needs more attention than I can give.

Story
Meet Eden! Eden is a 7.5-year-old, 25-pound sweetheart who greets the world with a wagging tail and a love for people. She is incredibly gentle with kids—whether it’s a 5-year-old or a household full of little ones, Eden’s calm, affectionate nature wins them over every time. She’s very people-oriented and enjoys meeting new friends, always happy to share attention and affection. While Eden is confident around people, she’s a bit more reserved with other dogs. On walks, she may show little interest in them or prefer to focus on chasing pigeons and exploring her surroundings. She can be a little territorial around her food or treats, particularly with larger dogs, but this is limited to her personal space and never directed toward people. With time, patience, and proper introductions, she could likely feel more comfortable around other dogs—especially smaller ones. Eden is easygoing at home. She’s fully housebroken, enjoys good walks to burn off energy, and even loves joining her foster on jogs—she keeps a steady pace and makes a great fair-weather running partner for anyone who likes to get outside. After activity, she’s all about curling up under a blanket for cozy snuggles. She can experience a touch of separation anxiety if left alone, but she doesn’t bark, cry, or become destructive. Eden will also give a polite alert bark when someone’s at the door. She’d do well in a family setting—whether with children, a retired couple, or anyone ready to give her attention and love. Eden would thrive in a home where she can be pampered, enjoy a yard to explore, and settle into a predictable routine full of walks, playtime, snuggles, and maybe even the occasional jog with her new best friend. Thanks to a generous donation from her foster family, Eden’s adoption fee is partially sponsored—her new family can take her home for $275. Eden is currently being fostered in Queens, NY—apply to meet this sweet, easygoing companion today!

Story
Meet Truffle! This 3-year-old, 24-lb brindle chiweenie is new to city life and taking it all in stride. He’s house-trained, gentle, and a little shy at first — but once he trusts you, he’ll follow you everywhere like a loyal little shadow. Truffle can still be a bit tentative on walks (those city noises are loud!), but he’s getting braver every day. Truffle is a total love bug who thrives on calm, patient companionship. He’d do best with someone who can give him a steady routine, quiet reassurance, and lots of cozy spots to nap near his person. Once he feels at home, you’ll see his tail wag and his personality shine. If you’re looking for a gentle, affectionate pup who will reward your patience with endless loyalty and love, Truffle might just be your perfect match. 🐾💛 Truffle is currently being fostered in Manhattan, NY. His adoption fee is $550.

Story
Meet Spiral! Spiral is an eight year old, 20ish pound Chihuahua/Corgi mix and the sweetest, most mellow gentleman! The best words to describe Spiral are polite and snuggly. He is excellent around his foster's resident dog and shows no signs of resource guarding. He is also great on a leash and friendly with everyone he meets. He is learning to use the wee-wee pad but also does his business outside. His favorite things include his food (chicken protein kibble) and treats, but he isn't aggressive about either. He sleeps quietly in this bed or kennel on is pillow and would spend all day snuggling on your lap if he could. Whoever adopts this polite, mellow, snuggly gentleman will be incredibly lucky! Spiral is currently being fostered in Staten Island. His adoption fee is $375.
