My personality

My story

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

Howdy folks! I am a pretty black & white female Labrador/Terrier mix named Nugget with soft, velvety ears you could rub all day long, LOL! I am about 5 years old, weigh 48 lbs, and I was dumped at a middle school in San Antonio, Texas, with a bag of dog food and a wire kennel. Thankfully, I was in my element with all the kids petting and playing with me, and I’m the type of girl with a happy and energetic spirit, so when a dog rescue picked me up, I adjusted easily. These days, I am living in a foster home, having some fun with the resident dogs, kids, and visitors. I am now spayed, vaccinated, microchipped, and ready for a new adventure to find a forever family that will last forever!

My foster mom reports that I am a very sweet and friendly girl, and I make friends easily with everyone. I love playtime, tug-of-war, running, and wrestling, but am a bit of a rough player. I love my people and am super affectionate, and would love to be included in family activities such as walks to the park, hiking, camping, social gatherings, road trips, and fun at the beach- The world is my oyster, and I am already dreaming of all the fun we could share! I’m a smart girl and rarely bark, but when bored and alone, I might chew on an available shoe or throw pillow. I am crate-trained, good in a crate, not destructive, and that’s where I currently sleep and stay when home alone in my foster home. I will cry at first when left behind, but will settle down quickly and chew on a toy or take a nap while I wait for your return. Overall, I am a happy, friendly, loyal, sweetheart of a girl, looking for love and that wonderful feeling of belonging. I know my future looks bright, and I hear the Eastern Seaboard is the place to be, so inquire about me today!

Additional adoption info

Please DO NOT apply unless the entire family / household is on board with adopting one of our dogs. We must receive an application for you to move forward in the process. Thoughtful direct emails are welcome and will be answered. However, an application is still a necessary step. We want to make sure we find our dogs a perfect fit with a family so both the dog and the family are happy. We keep our dogs with fosters once we get them out of shelters for a little bit to learn and understand their personalities. Our relationship with families doesn't stop at adoption! We are always available for any follow up questions and are happy to be a resource as you and your new pet settle into a routine.

More about this rescue

We are a small group devoted to saving dogs from the multitudes of high kill shelters in Texas, Florida, Georgia, Tennessee, North Carolina, South Carolina and California.
