What a gentle darling, surviving right now; waiting on the patience and love of someone that understands what it takes to show me the world, one step at a time. I am shy but respond very well once I trust. I will need a bit help to understand what the yard is for, no one taught me that before. I am a Wonder Dog, I can learn !

Meet Emilia, a sweet and loving seven-year-old, 15lb Shih Tzu who has been rescued from a life of breeding in a puppy mill. The hardships she endured are evident on her precious face, but Emilia's spirit remains unbroken. She is ready to leave her past behind and spend her best days in a home filled with love and care. Emilia will need some help with leash walking and potty training, but she gets along great with dogs of all sizes. This resilient girl is ready to receive all the love she deserves and give plenty of affection in return. If you're looking for a loyal, gentle companion, Emilia is waiting to meet you! Emilia is currently being fostered in the Cincinnati, OH area. Her adoption fee is $450.00.

Story
Meet Winifred! This sweet but shy gal is an 8.5-year-old, 20lb Shih Tzu who is looking for a forever home where she can relax and come out of her shell! She is a low energy girl, preferring to spend her days relaxing nearby and taking in the world around her. Winifred was rescued from a puppy mill so she is slowly starting to learn that she is safe. She is unsure of people at first but doesn't seem to have a mean bone in her body despite her past. If you hold her and pet her she will slowly wag her tail. She is fostered with other dogs and does well with them. She is happy to rest in her crate and is still working on potty training. Winifred doesn't really know what dog toys and a dog bed are, but she would love to learn! Her favorite thing to do is spend time outside soaking up the sun or to take a nap in the grass. Winifred would love a kind, patient home that will give her a safe place to rest and be loved. If this could be you, then apply for Winifred today! Winifred is fostered in the Cincinnati area. Her adoption fee is $300.00.

Story
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 found at haydudeequine.org Khloe - You are the bridge between what was and what will be, my pathway to a new life! Meet Khloe (that's me!), your next furry BFF! I'm here searching for a family, a home...one I can say will be ALL mine! Since you're reading this, could that possibly mean my family could be with YOU?!! I'm around 3years old which puts me at a fabulous age...out of the puppy destructive stage but still active and playful. I am super sweet but am a tad bit on the shy side at first meet. Once I warm up to you I will for sure shower you with all the love I've got stored up! I am super affectionate in my foster home. I love snuggling with you on the couch and I love anything soft. Your lap, a fluffy blanket, a pillow, a doggie bed if I have to, but I'd rather be closer to you. I also do great with the other pups at my foster home and I mostly just leave the resident kitty alone. I come in at about 9lbs which is also a pawsomely perfect size for, well yes, everything. Neighborhood strolls, mild concrete nature trails, co-piloting errand runs, supervising yard work, you name it I'm the gal for the task at hand!! I was born with my back legs deformed but I can scoot around in the house pretty darn well!! I don't even realize I'm not like the others. I can even go up and down stairs. I just can't jump up on the couch but I will sit there and stare at you until you lift me up! I'm still just one of the sweetest girls you'll have the pleasure to meet. My foster mom got me a wheelchair and I went for my very first walk. I stopped and looked at this and stopped to smell that... with a smile on my face the whole time!! I will need regular grooming to keep me looking this spectacular! A few weekly brushings and maybe a trip to the groomer every so often is a small price for this much gorgeousness in one compact package!! Unfortunately my previous home didn't do that and I had to be shaved the whole way as my coat was super matted. But not to worry, it does grow back!! I will make a great companion for a family that is looking for a sweet lil girl that will be your BFF, your lil sidekick in all your life's adventures from mundane daily to weekend exciting!!! Please fill out my adoption application, it can be found at haydudeequine.org
