By San Antonio Current Staff
The Animal Defense League of Texas, a no-kill shelter located 11300 Nacogdoches Road, has several dogs that are currently looking for a forever home. Check out the dogs that are currently available and just try saying no to adopting one of these cuties. It's basically impossible.

"You cant see my striking markings very well from my photo, so I invite you to come see me in person or rather, in dog to admire me. As a Catahoula leopard dog mix, I have a grayish coat with black patches, and its both unusual and quite handsome, in my humble opinion. I love when people admire me, play with me, or pay attention to me in any way. In fact, I have kind of a reputation as a big crybaby because I get upset when people ignore me. Thats because I love people so much and I want a forever home where someone is around a lot to be with me. Im well-behaved and dont cause any trouble. Well, except for the fact that Im so smart that I can open practically any door. Please come visit soon!"
Bruce
"Dont you want to hold my smooshy face in your hands and give it a big kiss? I would love that, and Id give you a bunch of kisses right back. Im a very lovable boy. Im also full of energy, bouncing all over the place and ready for fun. I suppose I need some training so I dont jump on people, but I just cant contain my excitement and I only want to show you how much I adore you. But if you take me home I promise Ill be a good boy and learn whatever you teach me and be your best friend forever."
Toberlone
"If you think about it, I am kind of the color of a classic Toblerone bar, with its chocolate, nougat, almonds and honey. About as sweet, too. Ive got lots of pep in my step, but Im settled enough that I have learned the sit and stay commands. I like kids and other dogs, and what Id really like is a forever home with people who love me and who I can love right back. Im waiting right here for you."
Charlie
"Ive had a pretty rough past and it hasnt been the easiest for me to adapt to a normal life. Im a very shy poodle but the folks here at ADL have cracked my shell a bit. I enjoy spending time outside and rolling around in the grass. I know that Im not the picture perfect young and energetic dog that most people look for, but I can be just as sweet as them! Im a unique and handsome gentleman. I typically have my tongue hanging out due to me being toothless. Yes, I have no teeth. Id like to think it just adds to my cuteness. Im looking for a patient person willing to take me under their wing and provide me with tons of love, care, and cuddles for the rest of my life. Do you think you can be that person for me?"
Coco
"Dont let my expression fool you, Im a friendly girl. I can sometimes be shy but Im generally energetic and happy. Dont my floppy coco colored ears make me look cute? Just imagine these eyes waking you up with kisses and love! Come by and visit me today!"
Adela
"Im a young and playful pup thats ready to start my life with a forever friend. I have long ears that sometimes transform into yoda-like ears, people think its cute, I hope youll think theyre cute too! Im a loving girl that likes cuddles and a comfy lap to lean on. I also give kisses, especially if you have yummy treats in hand! Please give sweet me a chance and visit me as soon as you can!"
Kerstin
"I didnt mean to look so sad, Im just a very calm and laid-back type of dog. I have a scraggly haired coat and precious beady eyes that add to my cuteness. Im friendly and gentle with people. Ill even let you hold me close to you if you want to cuddle. I like walks in the park and do very well on the leash. However, I do need to take it easy due to my heart murmur. All I really want is a comfy lap to set my head on and to be loved. I hope to find a home soon where I can do just that."
Hexel
"Everyone loves a golden retriever, but theyre big dogs and not everyone wants a big dog. Thats where I come in. I look just like a golden retriever except that I have short legs, which make my size more like a basset hound. Im as sweet as any golden too, though I am a bit shy at first. You can tell by the way I wag my feathery tail that I want to be friends, and within five minutes or so Ill be covering your face with kisses. Just be patient and soon enough youll be loving your own little golden."
Caprice
"I didnt meant to look like a deer in the headlights in my photo, I was just curious about the strange contraption taking my photo. Im a very sweet and gentle girl that doesnt mind being carried. If you put me down on the ground, Ill walk very well on the leash beside you. Please give little me a chance to win your heart over and maybe we can become forever best friends."
Crush
"You will have a crush on me when you meet me, because I am an adorable puppy who just wants to be loved. Im big now and Im going to get bigger, but you can get this big bundle of love for $20 as part of ADLs Big Dog Go promotion. Youll see how excited I am about it when you come by because I dont sit still like this very often. I guess you could call me joyful or playful or maybe even a maniac, but I am definitely cute. I get along well with kids and other dogs and I am looking forward to starting my new life very soon."
