My story

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

SMALL SIZE -- BIG PERSONALITY

 

DOB 12/1/23, weight 22 lbs.

Here’s Brody, the epitome of a small pup with a big personality! This sweet boy has an "affectionate heart." He is quick to bond, latches to his human, and goes where they go. He lights up when he's around his human. During quiet time, Brody loves to snuggle next to his human on the sofa and, if not allowed there, then he curls up on his dog bed or in the crate.

With a playful spirit, Brody is always ready for tail-wagging fun. He loves to play fetch anytime during the day, but the mornings are his favorite, and he will bring you his favorite toy as an invitation to play. Soft treats are Brody's favorite, as well as real-meat treats.

Brody is eager to please and brings joy wherever he goes. This vocal pup expresses himself frequently with a variety of cute sounds. He squeals when he wants the human's food, yips when he wants attention, growls when he plays and wants to keep his human away from other pups, and belts out happy barks when playing.

Brody plays well with other dogs -- regardless of size. Though he mainly plays with the smaller dogs in his foster home, on occasion he runs around with the resident pups who are much larger than he is. This boy knows his name, comes when called, sits for treats sometimes, and is completely housebroken. He uses the extra-large dog door without issues. All in all, Brody is a great pup (and a smart one, too)!!

Brody’s $200 adoption fee includes the neuter, vaccines, microchip, negative heartworm test, negative fecal test, and monthly prevention for heartworms and fleas.  To apply online, go to: http://www.homelesspets.net/adoption-forms/dog-adoption.php

Submitting an application does not obligate you to adopt from us but it initiates contact with us and gets the process started. If you have questions prior to filling out the application or want to find out which adoption site Brody will be at this weekend, email us at lisagilchrist16@gmail.com and a volunteer will get back to you.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

Adopting an animal is a very serious decision and we want to be sure that our potential adoptive families have thought about the impact of this decision carefully. To adopt an animal through HOPE, we request that you complete an Adoption Application, a copy of which is available online for cats at http://www.homelesspets.net/adoption-forms/cat-adoption.php or for dogs at http://www.homelesspets.net/adoption-forms/dog-adoption.php. You may fill it out online or print a copy of the application and complete it prior to arriving at an adoption session. This will expedite the adoption process and will also assist our adoption counselors in matching you to a suitable pet.

We at HOPE make every effort to match our foster pets to appropriate homes. If you feel that we are too intrusive, please understand that it is because we care about their welfare.


Fees
All animals are neutered or spayed and have received age appropriate shots prior to being adopted. We ask that you provide a $100 donation for cats and a donation of $150 for dogs when you adopt your new family member from us. This donation helps us in defraying the costs of these and other medical needs of our animals.

Go meet their pets

Mobile adoption sessions are held on the weekends. All adoption sessions run from 12:00 - 4:00 pm at a variety of locations and days as noted on our website http://www.homelesspets.net/adoption-locations/. For more information, please contact us at hope@homelesspets.net

More about this rescue

Our mission is to end the homelessness of cats and dogs through foster to adoption, feral cat Trap-Neuter-Return, and education.

HOMELESS & ORPHANED PETS ENDEAVOR (HOPE) is an all-foster, no kill adoption group based in the Houston area.

HOPE covers the cost of general medical expenses for the animals in the program, such as altering, routine vaccinations and treatment for parasites. Our foster families are asked to provide food, shelter and love to the animals for which they care. They receive no payment for the services that they provide. Without them, and the other volunteers who so selflessly do what is necessary to keep HOPE afloat, it would not be possible to run this nonprofit corporation.

One aim of HOPE is to develop a network of area rescue and humane organizations which will facilitate the rescue and placement of a variety of animals. The goal is to never have to turn away an animal in need. By forming a coalition of humane and rescue groups in the Houston area, we could potentially place all animals who need a temporary home until they are placed into a permanent one.
