My story

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

Rylo is a 7-month-old Border Collie mix with the sweetest heart and the happiest little personality. This boy wakes up ready to love the world. He’s playful, affectionate, and always excited to be part of whatever you’re doing.
He adores people, is friendly with other dogs, and does well with kids — though because he’s still very much a puppy (hello, zoomies and learning manners 😅), a home with older kiddos would probably be the best fit.
Rylo is crate trained, potty trained, and already showing off how smart he is. Border Collie brains are no joke, and this guy is eager to please and quick to learn. He thrives on attention, praise, and being included. Training with him will be fun — he genuinely wants to get it right.
And when playtime is over? He is an absolute snuggle bug. He’ll happily curl up next to you and soak in all the love.
Rylo is looking for an active home that will keep his mind engaged and his heart full. If you’re ready for a loyal best friend who’s equal parts brains, energy, and cuddles… Rylo is your guy. 💙🐶

Our Story

Founded in 2018, Cactus Ranch Rescues was born out of equal parts compassion, caffeine, and good ol’ Texas stubbornness — a response to the heartbreaking overpopulation crisis facing our state’s pets.

Originally tucked away on peaceful acreage in Elgin, TX, the ranch quickly turned into a full-blown rescue rodeo — with wagging tails, woolly coats, and the occasional feathered diva demanding VIP treatment. (Yes, we once shared the barn with a duck who thought she was management.)

After a short hiatus — because even rescuers need a nap and a moment to remember what “free time” is — we’re back and thriving in Bryan, TX! Our space might be smaller now, but our hearts are still Texas-sized, and our determination to save lives could lasso the moon.

These days, we mostly focus on domestic animals (because we finally admitted we can’t fit a cow in the living room). We serve as a stepping stone rescue — helping dogs go from crisis to comfort, from “code red” to couch-ready. Think of us as the halfway house for hounds, the pit stop for pups, and the emotional support humans for anyone with paws.

Every animal that finds their way to the "Ranch" becomes part of our family — quirks, belly rub demands, and all. We rebuild trust, restore joy, and prove daily that even the most broken spirits can wag again.

Cactus Ranch Rescues — where healing begins, one wag and heartbeat at a time.
