1. Teddy in San Francisco, CA

Meet Teddy – Handsome & Heart-Stealing!
With his soulful brown eyes, soft coat, and undeniable "boy-band" good looks, Teddy is the kind of pup who turns heads wherever he goes. At 5 years old and about 9 lbs., this striking boy is more than just a pretty face—he’s a gentle soul who’s learning how wonderful life can be in a loving home.

Teddy’s looks may catch your attention first, but his tender, curious spirit will win your heart. He’s shown great progress and continues to change during his time in foster care. Once too shy to accept attention, he now enjoys petting, cuddles, and even being carried when he feels safe. He’s curious about toys (sometimes sneaking them into his crate) and has learned to enjoy canine companionship—he especially adores his older foster sister and happily follows her everywhere.

At night Teddy sleeps peacefully in his crate, and during the day he loves lounging on a cozy bed or couch where he can keep an eye on household happenings. He has made good progress on housebreaking, responds to words like “Carry,” “Leash,” “Inside,” and “Outside,” and struts proudly on walks with his harness.

Teddy is very noise sensitive and can be upset by barking dogs or sudden loud sounds, so he’ll thrive in a quiet, calm home with patient adopters who will give him the space and time he needs to feel secure. With kindness and consistency, his adopter will see the joy of a shy pup blossoming into a loyal, loving companion.

Teddy is up-to-date on all medical. His adoption fee is $450. He is being fostered in San Francisco, CA where his adoption will take place.

2. Lincoln in New Cumberland, Pennsylvania

Meet Lincoln - a tenderhearted Havanese looking for love

Lincoln is a sweet 3-year-old Havanese currently being fostered in Devon, PA, and his story is as tender as his heart. After losing his loving owner, Lincoln came to HALO in hopes of finding a new forever family who will cherish him just as deeply.

From the moment he arrived, Lincoln has shown us what a truly affectionate little companion he is. His happiest place is right beside you—curled up on your lap, snuggled next to you on the couch, or tucked warmly against you at night. He loves being picked up, enjoys attention from anyone once he warms up, and greets new people with shy curiosity that quickly turns to affection.

Lincoln is playful with other dogs, loves toys, and requires a home with another friendly, playful dog to be his buddy. He walks well on a leash, handles harnessing easily, and does well with pottying outside. Though he doesn’t like being alone and prefers to stay close to his people, he settles beautifully once he feels safe. With patience during his adjustment period, he will reward his new family with endless love and devotion.

Lincoln is the definition of a sweetheart. Soft, snuggly, sensitive, and people-oriented, he simply wants to be loved—and to love you right back. His gentle nature and affectionate spirit make him a joy to share life with.

Lincoln's adoption fee is $500. He is up-to-date on all medical and microchipped.

3. Muffin in Summerville, South Carolina

Hi, I’m Muffin!
5 years old | Birthday: April 19, 2020/12lbs.
I’m a sweet, playful girl with a big heart and an even bigger love for my people and dog friends. I am five years old, and I still have plenty of energy for playtime and I’m a total pro at relaxing when it’s time to cuddle.

I love being picked up and held (really, I do!). When you say “up,” I know exactly what you mean and will let you scoop me up nice and easy. I’m very polite about it and I’m used to being handled every day. I also never say no to pets, treats, or attention—and if you’re sitting on the bed, I’ll happily use the steps to come snuggle right next to you.
I’m a rock star on leash and enjoy nice strolls around the block, either by myself or with my doggy siblings.

I’m also very good about going potty outside, especially when I’m on a schedule.
Now let’s talk about toys—because I LOVE them. I visit the toy box daily to pick out my favorites, enjoy chewing on yak bones, and I’ll admit… I sometimes steal toys from my brother Asher. But that’s because he’s my best friend. We wrestle, run, roll around, and then hide each other’s toys in our crates. It’s our thing. I get along with all my dog friends, but I’d be happiest with a playful buddy to keep me busy.

When it’s time to relax, I’m your girl. I love dog beds (every single one), enjoy lounging on the couch, and adore napping on the bed with my humans. What makes me special? I’m the kind of girl who can play hard with my dog friends, then curl up right next to you for a peaceful nap. I’m loving, loyal, playful, and ready to be someone’s best friend.

If you’re looking for a happy, affectionate pup who will make you smile every day, I think we might be perfect together. I am up-to-date on all medical, spayed and micro chipped. My adoption fee is $450. I am being fostered in Summerville, SC and my adoption will take place there.
