My story

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

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.

Meet  Dottie (originally named Willow) , a beautiful 8-year-old terrier mix (born 11/18/2017) with a gentle soul and a playful heart that proves age is just a number. While she still has a spark for fun, Dottie’s absolute favorite thing in the world is being loved—belly rubs and quiet moments of belonging are where she truly shines.
Dottie is looking for a very specific "soft place to land" for her next chapter. She spent six years with a family but was recently returned after experiencing stress during major life transitions. Specifically, Dottie struggled with the arrival of a new baby and later with a toddler; she had incidents of biting her owner during pregnancy and the child over food on two separate occasions.
Because Dottie thrives best when life is predictable and calm, she requires an  adult-only, quiet home  where she can be the center of attention without the unpredictability of young children. A  fenced yard  would be her dream come true—a safe place to sniff, explore, and soak up the sunshine at her own pace.

Adoption fee: $300
Transport available: Northwest & East Coast for $250
Apply to adopt Willow: www.adoggie4you.org

Sometimes the best love stories start a little later — Dottie is ready when you are.

Additional adoption info

Adoption application is required. Applications are checked by contacting references and veterinarians of those with pets to ensure our pups go to the best homes possible. A picture of your home or yard may be requested
All dogs and puppies are fully vetted prior to adoption (spay/neuter, rabies, 3 DHPP, bordetella, heartworm test/treat if positive) and are micro-chipped.

Our fees start at $200, transport out of Texas is arranged by us and is generally an additional $200.
We work hard to place dogs into the right families, but sometimes we realize the fit isn't quite working out for the adopter or the pet. Our contract requires if an adoption does not work out the dog is to be returned to us. We need at least two weeks notice.

Our dogs are posted on our website. Generally they live at our facility located on a beautiful 100 acre ranch in Texas. We work to correct poor behaviors, teach manners and observe each dog. We pride ourselves in providing a complete and honest evaluation of each dog to ensure the best possible placement for both the dog and the adopter. We welcome your visit to our facility in Texas.
