Story
Apply to Adopt Me! Peanut Butter is the sweetest girl! This 5yo, 7.6 lb. Chiweenie is very timid at first and will need time to get to know you before she will commit to being your friend. But once she does, she is your bestie! She favors women, is skittish around men and may never warm up to a male in the home (did not after 4 years), so for that reason we are adopting her to an all-female home only. She loves to cuddle in the human bed at night (this is a must for her) and sleeps all through the night under the covers. With her short legs, she will need stairs or a ramp onto the bed and couch. She is house trained and loves, loves her daily walks, doing a happy dance when the harness and leash come out. She enjoys her brisk walks, except to stop and sniff, and is energized when she sees a squirrel teasing her. She also loves searching out lizards. She is non-reactive to people and dogs on her walks. Belly rubs are also a favorite. She is dog and cat friendly (ignores a cat), and gains comfort from having another friendly dog (large or small) in the home, so that will be given preference. She loves meal times and getting treats. She cutely stands on her hind legs waiting for her treat. She loves chewing on a Benebone or chew bone. One of her favorite things is sun bathing on the screened-in porch area. She isn’t a big barker, but does bark when she perceives danger. She does well riding in a car in her doggy booster seat. Once she gets used to her new situation and comes out of her shell, she is a happy and fun little dog. She is sad when she is left behind, and cries for a little while, so we are wanting someone for her who is home most of the time. We want a smaller fenced yard for her to run around in, but with her tiny size, it must be totally secure with no gaps where she can squeeze out. Due to her small size, we prefer an all-adult home for her, but if the home has a child, an older respectful child will be considered. Whoever adopts this sweet girl is truly getting a gem. If you live in the Central Florida/Orlando area, match all of her qualifications in this profile, and believe you have the perfect home for Peanut Butter, please complete an app and tell us more about you.  March 12, 2025, 11:26 am

Story
Apply to Adopt Me! Frankie is just the most precious boy! He is around 2yo and weighs 15lbs., and is probably a chihuahua mix of some sort, with a gorgeous brindle, black and white coat and warm brown eyes. Frankie loves the company of other dogs, kitties and adults. He has been with kids ages 5 to 10yo and did great. He loves chew toys and is very food motivated. He rides well in a car. He's just an all-around fun guy and will bring joy to you every day. Frankie is crated when his fosters leave the house, and he cries a bit at first but settles down. For that reason, apartment living would would not suit him. We prefer a fenced yard, or someone who can provide him with lots of exercise and a place to run and burn off his energy. He is active in the morning, then settles in for nap time. He may mark once or twice in a  new environment, but he learns very quickly and is potty trained. Frankie loves to sleep snuggled up right next to his foster parents at night. He just wants to be as close to you as possible and likes to show affection with gentle little kisses. Frankie is heartworm positive at this time, and is on the slow kill protocol, which we can explain that process to any interested applicant. He can enjoy regular activities. Heart worm disease is contracted from an infected mosquito and can not be transmitted to another dog. If you live in the Central Florida/Orlando area and believe you have the perfect home for Frankie, please complete an app and tell us more about your family.   March 6, 2025, 6:55 pm
