CHLOE. a perfect little lady is looking for a loving home! For more than five years, CHLOE has been living at the ESMA-shelter, and never seems to lose hope to find a loving home. Chloe is a sweet baladi girl, around 6 to 7 years old. Chloe does not have any health issues and is ready to travel. Her energy level is medium, her nature is calm and kind. She is not dominant, and does not display a prey drive. Actually, she fulfills most of the requirements often made for dogs to be adopted: Her friendly and loving personality and her convenient smaller size make her fit into almost every family and home, and it is sad, that until now, she is sitting in the shelter, and not living in a home, being the great companion she could be for someone. What always impressed me most about this little dog is the fact, that she always behaves like a proper little lady, whether being in an enclosure together with a group of rambunctious "room mates", or even now, living among so many dogs, free on the big sand place. Chloe has always kept to herself, without being unfriendly with other dogs. She is always very clean and neat, no matter what her environment is. She is never involved in any brawls around her. She hides at a safe spot, and only comes out, when I call her name. Then, she is so happy to receive some attention and cuddles, but she seems so lonely among all the other dogs. It is high time for this smart and lovely little lady to get home. Please, do not let her wait much longer in the shelter.
BANDIT is the perfect example for a tripod, who wants to prove, that he can do everything better than a dog with four legs. This boy must be around 6 years old, and is in the ESMA Shelter since more than 4 years. You can see Bandit's exuberant personality shine from his beautiful eyes. He loves to run, to play, and most of all, his love and joy when he is with a human friend does not have any borders. Bandit is a lover, and he is all over his human friend with slobbery kisses and passionate hugs. He would be the most passionate and loving companion and friend for his human. Having only three legs never slowed him down, and I can't discover any signs of ageing on this beautiful boy. He is just waiting to shower his own family with an abundance of love, and he easily can participate in any kind of outdoor activities. Bandit is playful, but he is very smart and would enjoy also just to sit and cuddle with his person. Bandit is spayed, does not have any health issues, and is ready to travel to his home. This boy should be loved and cared for, and have fun in his home, where he would probably prefer to be the only dog.
Suki, our very cute Pekinese mix is enjoying his treats a lot! He is so adorable, munching away at the treat sticks! By the way, Suki can be adopted, and would like very much to be the joy of a loving home! He is the sweetest little boy, and he should be grabbed out of the shelter right away! He is about around 4 years old, neutered, and a little chunky monkey.
Meet the formidable TUX! Tux is perfectly dressed for the occasion with his charcoal black tuxedo fur, and snowy white breast! How can anybody not be completely smitten with his handsome appearance, only topped by his lively, joyful and emotional personality. Tux is a young boy, maybe around 3 years old, neutered, in good health condition, very human oriented. Since more than one year he is already in the ESMA-shelter, waiting and longing to go home with his human. Tux' story is very touching. He seems to have lived with humans before, who then betrayed him by placing him just beside a very busy highway, to be sure that he was killed if he just moved a little bit. Tux was sitting there, on this dangerous spot, when kind people discovered him and tried to lure him away from the danger zone, but any attempt to get him safely away was failing. Tux stayed put for one and a half day, and was taken in against his will by his rescuers. He landed at the ESMA Shelter and quickly recovered from his ordeal and his loving character unfolded to any human, he met. Tux is living now in an enclosure of the dog shelter, together with a group of mellow dogs. He is a quirky, funny boy, playful and lively, but not dominant. Tux is waiting for his human, with whom he is willing to do anything. He is curious and ready to discover the world, to participate in activities, to show what a good boy he is for his person. If you are looking for a canine friend who will joyfully give you his heart and life, who is so willing to please, look no further and don't leave Tux waiting for longer! You can't find better than this wonderful boy who will brighten your life with his sunny personality!
Little RICHARD has a crooked leg. Little RICHARD is a beautiful smaller dog, and most people think: What a pity! Poor little boy! Wrong! His impressive pair of ears, or his beautiful grey wolf-like fur, or even the crooked little leg, memory of an old fracture, long healed, but in the wrong way, these are not the essential factors making little Richard so special and unique: it is his spirit, that astonishes you the most. This little guy is not the lap dog you might expect from his appearance! He is immensely courageous and brave! Inside this little body dwells an invincible, unbeatable, self confidence, with which this mini wolf meets his destiny! He is not held back by his leg, he can do zoomies, run, play. He is running with the big guys, and he is a mischievous brat, even sometimes instigating trouble. This is Richard in the shelter, where he is holding up against so many bigger and stronger dogs. But Richard will be the treasure of his own home, the best boy and friend to his human, if you only let him! Richard might be around 5 years old, neutered, very adaptable and intelligent. His size is very comfortable, smallish, and he is travel ready! Adopt Richard, and you will have the best entertainment you could imagine! He is in good health, and his leg does not cause him any pain or trouble.
The enchanting LOLICE needs a home and a family! Lolice really needs a home, a human person or family very badly! This super mellow and kind girl is not happy in the shelter, where she landed after having been living in a human household. In the shelter, Lolice is rather lost. She became a little shy and afraid from the other dogs, sensing, of course, their jealousy, when she wants to come up to visitors and snatch a pad or a cuddle. She will only be happy with humans. Lolice is doing what she can, in order not to attract any attention from her kennel mates. She is submissive and gets along with all dogs (if they are not aggressive) and humans. She has an incredibly kind and sweet nature, which she is longing to show to her person(s). She is so lovable, and sweet, and is ready to steal your heart away! Lolice is around 3 years old, spayed, medium energy, in good health, an ideal family and companion dog.

Red, a big “red” dog without a tail. Red is in the shelter for many years. He had been brought in together with his mate by a lady who moved out of the country, with the plan to let them follow her later. She never was heard from again and Red stayed on. He's not great with some dogs and humans but he loves hugs!
Flori likes his food, and it shows in his well rounded figure! He has beautiful, speaking eyes, though, eyes with a spark in it! And what a fun time he offers! He unleashes a firework of fun and happiness when you just start petting him! He dances, jumps, turns round, and wiggles with his whole body, more than making up for the missing tail. He plays catch, jumps up, always uttering little squeeks of pure joy! What a dog, what a player! How happy could he make a kid who needs a play mate!
He is a big black dog, white tail tip, white shoes, and a white line along his nose. He is Mr. Tips. He soon showed that he was going to be a leader and it almost seemed as if he groomed himself to be a king in the shelter, ruling and independent. His black coat always shining, well built, he is moving around the shelter with a majestic grace, reprimanding unruly youngsters, intervening in quarrels, and somehow free.
Who could resist Jimmy, and his smile which is to die for? With his signature ear flopping down, the other up, Jimmy is always willing and ready to give hugs and loves holding paws with visitors.

Darcy is Joshephine’s equivalent in blond. They are about the same age, the same temperament. Both are just a matching pair, sleeping together, eating together, playing together, just being inseparable.

Black and handicapped, sweet Tommy is not the first choice of many adopters. This boy's estimated age could be 3 to 4 years, and he has kept his amazing friendly personality. Although his rear legs are not working well any more, he is getting around on them OK. I don't know his history, but his handicap looks like an accident, which left him at least not paralyzed. Tommy is a lovely, affectionate dog, and I am sure, although he probably has never seen a home, he would do wonderfully with a family, who would offer him more than some shared cuddles and attention in the shelter.
This is Rambo, around 5 to 6 years old. Rambo is a big boy with a huge heart. He likes cuddles like a baby, and he loves car rides! He is feeling so very lonely and would be just a big hunk of love for the one giving him a home and many cuddles.
