My personality

My story

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

Roger’s story began when he was just a puppy and his whole life has been about loyalty. He followed an older gentleman home one day… and never left. He chose his person, and from that day on, he was a loyal, loving companion. When his human dad passed away, Roger stayed with his dad’s sister, who adored him just as much. Sadly, her declining health means she can no longer give Roger the care and activity he truly deserves. It breaks her heart, but she wants the very best life for him.
Roger has been in a foster home since early summer while his mom underwent open-heart surgery. She hasn’t been able to return home, and she has asked for help finding Roger a family who will love him as deeply as she does.
Roger is about 6 years old, neutered, heartworm negative, and on monthly prevention. His puppy energy is long gone — this boy is all about calm companionship. He loves walks, snuggling in bed, and simply being near his people.
Even though Roger wasn’t socialized much in his previous life, he has blown everyone away in foster care. His foster home has 38 dogs on the property, and Roger lives peacefully with around 32 of them inside the home. He is crate trained, excellent on a leash (seriously — no pulling at all!), and has shown zero food dominance.
Roger deserves a home where he can relax, feel safe, and enjoy simple joys like slow walks and couch cuddles. He’s not huge on fetch — he’d much rather play keep-away or enjoy some tug games.
If you’re looking for a gentle, loyal, easy-going companion who wants nothing more than to be near his people, Roger is your boy. He has so much love left to give and is ready to spend his golden years with a family who will treasure him

Roger likes to play tug of war, he wiggles his body and tail and talks a little, he prefers the calmer life. He likes laying on his bed just chewing on one of his femur filled bones. He will place his head on your lap when you are sitting in bed and ask for pets. He enjoys laying on the bed when you are watching TV, but will move to his bed next to your bed when he is ready to sleep. Roger is a very good candidate for adoption! HE really is a dream. He would easily fit into our pack, but we can't keep them all and Roger enjoys being near his humans.

Adoption application

Go meet their pets

We are foster based so there isn't one specific facility to visit our adoptables. Occasionally we have adoption events at Tractor Supply, 13641 Hwy 110, Tyler, TX 75703.

The fosters / volunteers are happy to facilitate meet and greets for potential adopters.
