My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.

Howdy,  I am Turk.  I was abandoned at at gas station with my 3 other litter mates on a cold January day with no water, food or bedding.  But I watched over my pack until help arrived.  Now I dream of my forever home. 

I am a big boy that is always looking for an adventure.  It takes me a while to warm up to new people but when I do I am your best bud.  I  enjoy running and playing with my litter mates in the back yard.  Working on my socialization and manner training.  I am looking for a home that enjoys the great outdoors. 

I dream of my forever home. I would love to meet you and see if I could be a good fit into your family.  If you want a fun loving, adventurous boy I am your guy.

Please contact  app@aarfhouston.org for more information about this dog. You can apply online by clicking on Application .

ADOPTION FEE:  The adoption fee includes vaccinations, bordetella, deworming, rabies, Microchip including a lifetime registration and spay/neuter.  

PUPPIES   Texas State law requires that we sterilize any animal adopted through this agency.     This will normally occur between 5 and 6 months at one of our approved veterinarians at the expense of the rescue.

Children under 8 years old  often are not a good match for our puppies and dogs.   In order to protect both, your child and our rescued dogs/puppies from harm, we seldom if ever adopt to families with young children.

Approval:  You will be notified via email once your application is approved.  Once notified, we will schedule a meet and greet at one of our approved locations.   Thank you for considering a rescue!





The adoption fee includes vaccinations, Bordetella, de-worming, rabies, spay/neuter and microchip. There is a an additional $12.99 fee for Home Again for a lifetime registration of the microchip.

Puppies cannot be adopted outside of the Houston area until they are spay/neutered after they are 4 months old.

It is against the law in the State of Texas for a rescue not to be sterilized so we have to make sure it gets completed and that we have record of it.

NOTE: In our bios, we provide information based on our volunteer's experience with a particular dog; such as temperament, training, and ability to get along with others.

AARF is a 501(c)3 Non Profit, all breed, no kill organization. Our group is always in need of donations in order to continue to give the needed medical care to our rescues. Adoption fees do not begin to cover all of the medical costs. Any donation , no matter how small is a big help and is greatly appreciated. Please help us to continue to help them. Thank you.
