My story

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

As in rescue, you truly never know the whole story when you rescue a senior but what we do know about Dougie is that he suffered at the hands of POS chemical burns to the side of his face and was taken to a kill shelter. Many people tagged SafeHaven Animal Rescue Team begging that we pull and treat his medical needs, which of course we did. As a result of his injuries, he is blind but is a wonderful loving dog. He holds no grudges to what has happened to him. He does zoomies in the yard, plays with the other pups who are in Foster's home and he loves people - big and small. We are looking for a breed experienced owner with a fenced in yard. He is current on vaccines and is neutered.

We are a Matchmaker then people picking a pup, so once all of the above is done, we do a Facetime with several potential dogs.

Additional adoption info

We are looking for the right dog to go to the right home based on the information they provide to us on their application as well as the phone interview. Since we deal with large breed dogs only, there are times when we do not have the right match and we will refer them to a partner rescue.

At the present time, we do not have a facility to have adoption events at our Texas location. We are in the process of purchasing our own property and once that is complete, we will hold adoption events. We are also dealing with large breed dogs.
