Tommy Pickle is the kind of dog who doesn’t just love you… he chooses you. Around two years old, this adorable little guy has a heart that bonds deeply and completely. When Tommy decides you’re his person, that’s it — you’re his whole world, forever and always.

He may be a little shy when you first meet him, but give him just a moment and you’ll see the magic happen. Once he trusts you, Tommy melts into the most loyal, affectionate companion. He loves being close, being held, tagging along everywhere you go, and soaking up every second by your side. His attachment is pure, gentle, and honestly so adorable to witness.
Tommy is currently thriving in a foster home with another dog and does wonderfully — they cuddle, play, and keep each other company. He’s also a very chill little guy at heart. Tommy loves naps, lounging, and relaxing just as much as he enjoys his walks. When he’s tired, he’ll sweetly look up at you, waiting to be picked up like the baby he truly believes he is.
His personality is big and goofy in the cutest way. He loves sitting in window seals like a tiny cat, watching the world go by. His short little legs, tiny size, and silly habits make him impossible not to smile at. He’s truly one of those dogs that just steals your heart without trying.
Tommy sees kids regularly at his foster’s apartment complex and does great with them — he happily accepts pets and attention and clearly enjoys their love. Because of this, we believe he would do well in a home with kids. He currently lives in an apartment and does great, but he would also do well in a house. Most importantly, Tommy would thrive with someone who is home often or loves taking their dog along for daily adventures. He’s happiest when he’s near his person and part of everything they do.
Tommy Pickle is small, sweet, a little silly, deeply loving, and full of personality. He’s the kind of dog who will curl into your heart and never leave. If you’re looking for a loyal best friend who will love you endlessly, Tommy is waiting for you. Adopt him now!

https://g.co/kgs/UQ5Pyai We care deeply about creating lasting matches between dog and family for long term success, and take the time to ensure each adoption is a fit through our matchmaking process.
At our 2 acre Texas based property, we assess every animal with trainers on staff, we modify behavior as needed, and create individualized behavior plans to help prepare dogs for their future families including crate training, potty training, leash walking, etc. Our fosters are able to attend group training and socialization play groups helping them stay confident, well rounded, and adoption-ready. Our on-site trainers are dedicated to each dog’s growth and we enjoy seeing their progress!
We go above and beyond to ensure every animal receives exceptional care. Veterinarians consistently praise our medical standards. From routine care to advanced treatments, each dog receives personalized attention. Hard costs for a healthy dog range from $804-$920; heartworm-positive dogs or those needing specialized care can exceed $2,000+. Adoption fees help cover a portion of these expenses, but without government funding, we rely on fundraising to bridge the gap—ranging from $100–$1,000+ per dog.
Our adoption fees reflect the extensive care and resources that go into each animal we save. The adoption fee is a donation to the mission and goes far beyond getting a fully vetted pet.
