I am pretty sure my rescuers were HUNGRY when they named us. Cashew is my name and I am as delightful as a sweet n nutty n salty treat. My babies were named after food too! Who names puppies Chicken, Banana and Raisin?? Hungry rescuers! When we were found, we were HUNGRY TOO! We were "living" at a gas station in the 90 to 100 degree temperatures and unbelievable flooding. 🌧 We are SURVIVORS! As mama to this crew I was so very scared for our safety but was also scared of the people helping us... fast forward to today! I love my people and my babies are growing and finding their own homes. It's my turn now! I am a good girl, great size of 30# and a heart full of love and adventure! Adopt me soon!!

Meet Mary Ann and Ginger, an adorable bonded pair of medium-sized rescue dogs who are searching for their forever home. These super cute girls have spent their entire lives on their own until they were recently rescued.

They need a patient adopter who will give them the time and space they need to adjust to their new surroundings and discover the joys of being cherished pets.

They even tolerate baths and absolutely love being petted. Currently, Mary Ann and Ginger are being fostered in Seguin, TX, where they are receiving the care and love they deserve. If you have a kind heart and a gentle hand, these two sweethearts will surely reward you with endless affection and loyalty.

Molder

Basenji Mixed Breed (Medium)

Male, 7 mos

Wappingers, NY

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Molder is one of those dogs who is way too smart for his own good! He’s high energy, incredibly intelligent, and definitely looking for more than just a couch to lay on all day. This boy wants a job to do! We can’t say for sure what his breed mix is, but with those ears, his build, and his personality, we wouldn’t be surprised if there’s some Shepherd/Cattle Dog or other working breed mixed in there. Molder would do best with an experienced dog owner who understands high-energy, working-type dogs and is ready to give him the training, structure, exercise, and mental stimulation he needs. He is truly SUCH a great dog, he just needs someone willing to give him direction and help put that big brain to good use. If you’re looking for a smart, active dog to train, adventure with, and keep busy, Molder might be your guy. ❤️

Story

APPLY FOR CINNAMON ♥ MEET CINNAMON ♥ Hi, I’m Cinnamon, and yes, I am just as sweet as my name suggests, but I’ve also got enough personality to keep things interesting. I’m a Heeler mix, possibly with some Basenji in the mix, born on October 21, 2024. I weigh about 30 pounds, and I’m done growing, so this is the full Cinnamon package. No surprise upgrades to XL later. I’m already spayed, microchipped, and up to date on my vaccines, and I’ve apparently been paying attention in dog school because I’m house trained, crate trained, and leash trained. I’m also not destructive, so your furniture can relax. I’m great with other dogs and kids, and while I haven’t met cats yet, I’m a very social, happy girl. I like being part of whatever is happening, especially if it involves my people. I’m curious, engaged, and always ready to see what everyone is up to. My energy level is right in that sweet spot. I’m absolutely down for a walk, some playtime, or an adventure, but I also know when it’s time to settle in and relax. I’m basically the friend who says, “Yes, let’s go do something!” and then two hours later is very committed to the couch. I’ve got a really endearing mix of sweetness and confidence. I’m affectionate, fun, and easy to have around, but I’m not boring. I’ve got opinions. I’ve got charm. I’ve got a little sparkle. Mostly, though, I’m just looking for people who will make me part of their everyday life - walks, car rides, hanging around the house, playtime, lazy evenings, all of it. If you’re looking for a medium-sized girl with good manners, a fun personality, and a whole lot of sweetness, I think I could fit into your life pretty easily. And really… who doesn’t need a little more Cinnamon? ADOPTION FEE: $563 ADOPTION FEE INCLUDES: Alteration, Microchip, Vaccines APPLICATION: Click here to apply IF YOU HAVE OWNED A PET IN THE LAST 10 YEARS, PLEASE CALL YOUR VET AHEAD OF TIME TO ALLOW RESCUES TO SPEAK TO THEM APPLY FOR CINNAMON ##2854450##
