Adella's Story

ADORABLE ADOPTABLE ALERT. PLEASE SHARE, COMMENT and LIKE. Pink is Adella. Green is Alana. And these two little ladies are officially ready to find their happy homes. These girls are Chihuahua with a touch of mom’s Dachshund history mixed in… and who knows what else. Mom is around 14 lbs. Dad (if Tony was dad… or maybe an older son… or maybe both) was about 10 lbs. We may never fully solve that mystery, but what we do know is these pups are small, adorable, and full of personality. They came to us as newborns alongside mom after an inexperienced owner became concerned for their survival. With the help of a sweet young neighbor, they found their way to safety. We did lose one early due to prior inexperience, but once settled with us, the remaining five thrived. Mom’s milk came in, she felt safe, and she raised strong, happy babies. Now it’s time for these final two to begin their own chapters. Their siblings are already off living their best lives — one headed to Nashville and even made an appearance at the Barrelhouse Puppy Bowl, and the others were adopted just weeks ago. That leaves Adella and Alana waiting for their turn. They are: • Happy • Sassy • Playful • Social • Learning house training in foster • Still very young (Est DOB 12/5/26) They will need homes committed to continued training, structure, and lots of love. These are smaller breed pups — they will stay little, but their personalities are mighty. If you’ve been looking for a tiny sidekick with spunk and sweetness, one of these girls may be your perfect match. For all things adoption and to apply, 🛑 visit RecycledBestFriends.org The site outlines what we do, what we look for in adopters, adoption fees, and the vet care our dogs receive.
