Story
Hey, hey! Milo here- just wanted to check in and see how everyone is doing? My life is going pretty dang great, however I am missing one thing. It’s a family to call my own! My last mom owned me since I was just a puppy until now. She could no longer care for me so I found myself as an orphan… I wasn't socialized much as a young pup so I am more of a one or two person kind of dog. I am up for any adventure that involves just spending time with me! I love laying on the couch watching Netflix, a good football game or a nice long walk. I found myself stuck to my foster mom like her little shadow, but she has lots of other shadows too so I want to find my own family. I get along with all dogs as long as they are respectful of my age and size, I don't mind cats at all either. Fast moving kids will not be my thing, they are just so unpredictable and loud. I love to be cuddled and snuggled. Sleeping under the covers is a must as my hair is so fine I get cold easily. I have mastered this potty thing and haven't had accidents in weeks now! I am off leash trained but only to my one or two special humans. If you think you could be one of my special humans- apply for me today! You can apply for me at: https://www.fetchfosterandrescue.com/adopt Name: Milo DOB: 5/5/19 Weight: 17 lbs Breed: Chihuahua mix Sex: Male Altered: Yes Adoption: 400 Good with Cats: I don’t mind kitties! Good with Dogs: Yes, of course. Good with Kids: Older, calmer kids preferred. Special Requirements: None *Positive reinforcement obedience training is a great way to bond with your new family member. It can also help set up a relationship with greater odds of success integrating your new pet into your family. Anyone who provides proof of completed positive reinforcement training will receive a 100 dollar refund from Fetch Foster and Rescue Inc! If you have questions or are wondering if the class you want to take qualifies please reach out! ♥ Fetch Foster and Rescue Inc is a 501c3 non-profit organization ##2185215##

Hi, I’m Rowdy – The Snuggle King, Ice Cream Connoisseur, and Bone Bandit Extraordinaire Breed: Chihuahua/Poodle Mix | DOB: 5/3/19Weight: 17 lbs of pure snuggle | Adoption Fee: $400 Apply to adopt me – you won’t regret it!What’s up, future family?Name’s Rowdy—but I swear I’m more teddy bear than troublemaker. I’m just a little guy with a big heart, a love for ice cream, and a talent for burrowing under the covers like a champion.Let’s get this out of the way: I am the best kisser in the tri-state area. No contest. If you don’t like puppy smooches, we might have a problem. But if you do? Buckle up. Here’s the Lowdown on Me:• I’m shy at first. I won’t lie—I need some time to warm up to new people. Loud noises and sudden movements? Not a fan. But once I trust you, I’m the clingiest, coziest cuddlebug you’ve ever met. I will be in your lap, under your blanket, and possibly stealing your pillow.• I LOVE to snuggle under the covers. It’s basically my full-time job.• I enjoy going to dog bars and sipping on a good puppuccino while pretending I’m cool and mysterious.• I will eat all the ice cream you allow me to have. No shame. Sharing? Never heard of it.• I’m great with other dogs (especially chill ones) and I’m cool with cats—as long as they’re the kind that don’t mind me being a little too friendly.• Got a bone? Cool. I’ll probably borrow it. “Forever” is a flexible term, right? What I’m Looking For:• A calm home where I can settle in at my own pace. I need people who understand that gaining my trust is like winning the lottery. But instead of cash, you get a best friend who follows you to the bathroom.• A secure fence, because if I get scared, I might try out for the doggy Olympics (fence-jumping edition).• Another easygoing doggy sibling who doesn’t mind sharing their snacks and showing me the ropes.• Kids? I can do respectful, dog-savvy kids who know not to interrupt a man during his beauty nap or when he’s hiding in his safe spot. Potty Talk (Let’s Be Real):I’m doing awesome with house training—as long as I have a consistent routine. I’m not a wizard. I need structure. And also treats. Lots of treats. Bonus for My Future Fam:If you take me to a positive reinforcement training class, you’ll get $100 back from Fetch Foster and Rescue! That’s like… so many doggy donuts. (You don’t have to spend it on me, but, like… you should.) In Conclusion:I’m quirky, I’m cuddly, I’ve got a smooch that’ll melt your heart, and I just need someone who’s willing to go slow and love me lots. In return, you’ll get a best friend who snuggles hard, naps harder, and will never turn down a road trip to the ice cream shop.If you’ve got a cozy couch, some spare bones, and a little patience—I’ve got a whole lot of love (and probably a little dog drool) to give. Wanna meet me? Let’s make magic. Apply to adopt me here!https://www.fetchfosterandrescue.com/adoptWith licks, snuggles, and sweet dreams,– Rowdy ##1098397##

WE ARE A TX-BASED RESCUE. THIS DOG IS CURRENTLY LOCATED IN TX AND WILL BE TRANSPORTED UPON ADOPTION. Please fill out an adoption application at haydudeequine.org 💛 Meet Dainty 💛 Hi, hey... hello! That's me, I’m Dainty 💕 female - 3yrs - 8lbs - chihuahua/xolo mix (best guess as my coat is very very short) And yes, I’m as delicate and adorable as my name suggests—3 years old, 8 pounds, long legs going on for days, and built like a tiny little deer. But don’t let my dainty looks fool you… I am a professional snuggler. Like, truly elite level. My favorite hobby? Easy. Cuddling with you. Under a blanket. Preferably a soft, fuzzy one. Okay fine… it’s my only hobby. And I’m really, really good at it. I love to burrow under blankets like a tiny burrito and nap the day away. If you work from home, I will happily clock in as your full-time coworker—my main responsibilities include napping beside your desk and making sure you take cuddle breaks. If you like binge watching TV? Perfect. I’ll be right there, tucked in next to you, judging your snack choices (and hoping you share). I’m house trained, crate trained, and I get along with pretty much everyone—both dogs and cats, but kids that are gentle... I'm especially fond of! I’m just a sweet, easygoing little girl who wants to be wherever my people are. I came from a hoarding situation with a home with a lot of other dogs, so I’m really happy to now have a quieter life where I can soak up all the love and attention. And trust me… I have a LOT of love to give. Oh! And I’m very treat motivated. Like… very. If there were a gold medal for “cutest dog accepting snacks,” I would already have it. My dream home? Someone who’s around a lot—maybe you’re retired or work from home—who wouldn’t mind a tiny, warm shadow following you from room to room and then burrowing under the nearest blanket. So… if you’ve been thinking your life could use more cuddles, more sweetness, and one very adorable blanket gremlin… I think we might be perfect for each other. Apply today, like right now, at haydudeequine.org 💛

WE ARE A TX-BASED RESCUE. THIS DOG IS CURRENTLY LOCATED IN TX AND WILL BE TRANSPORTED UPON ADOPTION. Please fill out an adoption application at haydudeequine.org ✨🐾 Meet Payton — A Tiny Soul Learning How Beautiful Life Can Be 🐾✨ Female • 4 Months Old • 7 lbs Some puppies bounce into the world without a care… and some, like Payton, take a quieter, braver path — learning step by step that the world can be soft, kind, and full of love. 💛 When Payton first arrived from a hoarding situation, she was so scared she tucked herself away, unsure of everything around her. No gentle pets, no kind words, no cuddles… just a world she didn’t yet understand. But oh… how things are changing. ✨ This sweet little girl is blossoming beautifully. She’s started to seek out affection, leaning into gentle pets and soaking up every kind word like they’re the most precious thing she’s ever known (because to her, they are). She’s discovering the joys of being a puppy — slowly but surely: • Playing with her sister and toys • Following her person from room to room (your tiny, adorable shadow) • Exploring her surroundings with growing curiosity • Figuring out that treats are, in fact… amazing (Though she gives them a cautious sniff and a little taste lick first — quality control is very important 😄) She’s especially bonded to her twin sister, Paisley and finds comfort in having a buddy when things feel a little overwhelming. Payton would truly thrive in a home with a confident, friendly canine sibling to help guide her and remind her that everything is okay. She’s also met a kitty in her foster home and handled it like a little lady — curious but respectful, which is quite impressive for such a young pup. Because she’s still learning and gaining confidence, Payton will need a home that moves at her pace — patient, gentle, and full of understanding. Big new things can still feel a little scary, but with time, she continues to grow braver every day. And let’s not forget… her beautiful, shiny coat that practically sparkles in the sunlight. Seriously, you might need sunglasses — she shines that bright. 😎 Payton isn’t just learning how to be a puppy… she’s learning how to trust, how to love, and how to feel safe. And when she gives you that trust? It’s something truly special. 👉 Apply today at haydudeequine.org and give Payton the loving home she deserves — and watch her continue to bloom into the happy, confident girl she was always meant to be. 🐾💛

WE ARE A TX-BASED RESCUE. THIS DOG IS CURRENTLY LOCATED IN TX AND WILL BE TRANSPORTED UPON ADOPTION. Please fill out an adoption application at haydudeequine.org 💛 Meet Phoebe 💛 Phoebe may be the tiniest of her group at just around 7 pounds… but don’t let her size fool you—there’s a whole lot of love packed into that stunning milk chocolate colored little body, just waiting to shine. At about 1 year old, Phoebe is still learning that the world isn’t such a scary place after all. She can be a little shy when you first meet her—but give her a New York minute, and you’ll start to see her blossom into the sweetest little companion. And once she decides you’re her person? Game over. You’ve been chosen. 💛 💛 Personality: shy at first, but warming up into a total sweetheart 💛 Social life: loves playing with other dogs and would truly thrive with a confident canine buddy 💛 Life goal: find her human and never let them go Phoebe came from a hoarding situation with many other dogs, so she’s just now discovering all the wonderful things most pups take for granted—gentle pets, kind voices, meals in her very own bowl, and those magical little things called treats (she’s pretty sure those are going to be a favorite). She’s looking for a patient, loving home—ideally a quieter one with older, gentle kiddos—where she can continue to grow in confidence at her own pace. A doggy sibling would be a huge bonus, helping her navigate the “big, exciting world” moments and showing her that everything is, in fact, pretty a-ok. Phoebe is the kind of dog whose journey is just beginning. Every day, she gets a little braver, a little more playful, a little more herself. And being the person who gets to watch that transformation? That’s the really special part. And fair warning… once she comes out of her shell, don’t be surprised if this tiny little thing turns into your full-time shadow—following you around like, “Hi yes, I live here now and I will love you forever.” Apply today at haydudeequine.org if you have the patience, the kindness, and maybe a cozy spot on the couch… Phoebe is ready to find her person and start her happily ever after 💕

PLEASE NOTE THAT WE ARE A TEXAS BASED RESCUE. WE TRANSPORT OUR DOGS ONCE THEY HAVE BEEN ADOPTED. Our app can be found at haydudeequine.org 💛 Meet Rachel 💛 Rachel is a tiny, 8-pound, approximately 1-year-old Chihuahua/Miniature Pinscher mix… with a heart that’s quietly waiting to bloom. She came from a hoarding situation with many other dogs, so the world is still a big, new place for her. At first, she can be a little shy—taking it all in, making sure everything is safe. But once she realizes she’s okay? Oh… that’s when the magic happens. Because underneath that shy exterior is the sweetest little soul who absolutely melts for gentle love. Because of her beginning she would probably do better in a quieter home with older children that can give her space when she needs it. Her favorite thing? Belly scratches. The kind where she slowly rolls over like, “Okay… I think I trust you… you may proceed.” And once you’re in? You’re in forever. 💛 💛 Personality: soft, gentle, and oh-so-sweet 💛 Favorite activity: belly rubs and quiet cuddles 💛 Secret talent: turning patience into the most rewarding bond you’ve ever had Rachel would truly thrive in a home with another confident dog to show her the ropes and help her see that the world isn’t so scary after all—it’s actually pretty wonderful. She’s looking for a patient, kind-hearted person who will give her the time she needs to learn all the things many dogs take for granted… Like gentle pets. Kind words. Exciting little adventures. Learning to walk on a leash for neighborhood strolls Dinner in her very own bowl. And those magical things called treats She may start off a little unsure, but with love and patience, Rachel will blossom into the most loyal, loving little companion—one who will look at you like you hung the moon. And trust us… there is nothing sweeter than earning the love of a shy dog. Apply today at haydudeequine.org if you’re ready to show this precious girl that the world is safe, kind, and full of good things (especially belly rubs)… Rachel is ready to find her happily ever after 💕
