Meet Valerie — a thoughtful, gentle soul who is learning just how safe and good the world can be.
Valerie is a 9 month old Pyrenees/Shepherd mix and currently weighs 55 pounds. She has been working hard in training and making wonderful progress as she learns to trust. She’s a sensitive girl who approaches new people with caution, but with calm, positive introductions, her confidence continues to grow every day. Once she feels safe, Valerie shows her sweet, affectionate side and forms deep bonds with her people.
Valerie would do best with an experienced dog owner who understands fearful dogs and is willing to go at her pace. She can be fearful of strangers initially, but patient, low-pressure interactions work wonders for her; sitting down, offering quiet encouragement and letting Valerie choose when to engage helps her feel secure and successful.
In the home, Valerie is calm, well-mannered, and a joy to live with. She is house trained, crate trained, and walks nicely on leash. She enjoys relaxing with her person, quietly playing with her squeaky toys, and soaking up peaceful companionship. Valerie is also good with cats, and while she doesn’t need another dog in the home, she could do well with a confident, friendly canine companion who can help model bravery.
Valerie loves the simple pleasures: long naps, gentle affection, hunting for acorns, splashing in the water, and stretching her legs in the sunshine. A home with a yard is her best fit, as she enjoys outdoor time and space to explore at her own pace. Apartment living would not be ideal for this nature-loving girl.
Because Valerie thrives in calm, predictable environments, she would do best in a home with no children.
Valerie is spayed, microchipped, fully vaccinated, and up to date on flea, tick and heartworm prevention. She’s a quiet, loyal companion who is blossoming more each day and with the right family, she’ll continue to shine.
If you’re looking for a soft-hearted, devoted pup and are willing to let trust grow naturally, Valerie may be the perfect match for you.
All of our adopted dogs are transported using only trusted, reputable transport partners to ensure a safe journey to their forever homes up North.

Additional adoption info
We are very transparent with our applicants on all known traits of our dogs/puppies. From negatives to positives, health, behavioral and likes and dislikes. An adopter knows the dog they are adopting before they've even met them.

We are Jen and Lloyd Fairley. Our rescue is located in South Texas where there's a need for better legislation in animal welfare.
We've been saving dogs for almost 20 years, we just never put a name to it. Years of doctoring unknowns and scrambling to find sponsors or adopters for yet another stray soul, has led us here.
We are animal lovers who saw a need, and rather than exhaust our fellow rescues, we joined forces to battle in the war for the underdogs.
We continue to march towards freedom and forever for those abandoned and discarded.
Our dogs are fostered in a dog friendly environment. They are exposed to livestock and cats, and we can quickly determine their requirements with boundaries in a permanent home. They get daily outdoor exercise and sleep in cozy beds in their foster's homes at night. Each dog is spayed or neutered (if older than 6 months), vaccinated, heartworm and tick disease tested and on preventatives. Dogs over 12 months receive a ProHeart12 shot which provides 1 year of prevention to heartworm. We have an extensive deworming protocol and feed a good quality dog food.
Dogs are cat, dog, kid and fence tested before matching them with their humans.
We pride ourselves in being transparent.
We use trusted rescue transport partners to deliver our adopted dogs to their forever homes up North.
Please feel free to reach out with any questions by filling out our contact form or, if interested in one of our dogs, please fill out our adoption application and we'll be in touch within 24 hours.
