Story
To say that Candy is the best dog in the world is not an exaggeration. Candy is a sensitive and gentle soul. She is an indoor companion dog. Always loving, obedient and eager to please. She loves children and other friendly dogs. She is very social and loves being around people. She is quiet . She is not a barker or high energy. She’s happy going out for a walk once a day, she has a relaxed personality. She is afraid of thunder and other loud noises. She doesn’t do well when people yell or hit her. We got her from the animal defense league 4 yrs ago. We love her and only looking to rehome her because we’re moving. We’re looking for a loving family or a retired couple that has the time to give her the attention she needs.

Story
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. Despite their rough beginnings, Mary Ann and Ginger are incredibly sweet and are now learning to enjoy the comforts of a loving home. Both Mary Ann and Ginger get along wonderfully with other dogs, though they haven't had the chance to meet any cats yet. 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. Ginger, who bravely underwent heartworm treatment, is now healthy and heartworm negative. Both dogs are fully vetted, spayed, microchipped, and on preventatives. 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. Adopt Mary Ann and Ginger and give them the loving home they've always dreamed of.

Story
Brownie is a soft‑hearted pup with a story that almost ended too soon. Rescued just in time from a high‑kill shelter, he’s now soaking up every moment of safety, love, and belly rubs. What he’s missing is you. Brownie dreams of a family or a special human to finish his fairy‑tale journey and show him what forever really means. This handsome guy adores his humans and gets along wonderfully with furry friends. A day in the life with Brownie includes playtime with his toys, plenty of cuddles, and of course endless belly rubs. He’s the perfect companion for curling up on the couch, binge‑watching your favorite shows, or staying cozy on cold days. Brownie is house‑trained, kennel‑trained, and leash‑trained. He knows his basic commands and is highly treat‑motivated, making any continued training a breeze. He’s the full package: loving, loyal, and ready for his forever home.Make sure to check out my video! To adopt Brownie or learn more about him, completed the app below. He is located in Texas, but don't worry, his adoption fee includes his rescue transport cost, vetting and health certificate! Adoption App: https://new.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/AWAG/Dog

Story
Meet Nala – Ready for Her Fresh Start Meet Nala, a beautiful 4-year-old, 50-pound survivor who is ready to find the special person she can call her own. Nala's journey hasn't been easy. She came into rescue pregnant, heartworm positive, and carrying the weight of an uncertain past. Today, her puppies have all found loving homes, and Nala has completed heartworm treatment and received a clean bill of health. She is now spayed, microchipped, fully vaccinated, and current on flea, tick, and heartworm prevention. Nala is kennel trained, potty trained, and settles quietly in her crate after a day of activity. She is a high-energy dog who loves to play hard and have fun, but she also appreciates having a safe space where she can relax and unwind. Because of her past experiences, Nala is very cautious when meeting new people and will need time to adjust to a new home and surroundings. She is not the type of dog who will instantly become everyone's best friend. Instead, she forms deep bonds slowly and meaningfully. Once she trusts you, Nala becomes incredibly loyal and devoted to her person. She would thrive with a patient owner who understands that trust takes time and is looking for a true companion. Nala does have some resource-guarding tendencies with food and toys, so she will need an adopter who can manage those behaviors appropriately. She previously lived in a foster home with cats and did well. If you're willing to give Nala the time, patience, and understanding she deserves, you'll gain a faithful friend who will love you with her whole heart. She is available for adoption in Texas only. To see more pictures and videos of Nala, please visit the link below. To apply directly for Nala, push the "Apply for Adoption" button. https://www.shelterluv.com/embed/animal/FODS-A-708 All our dogs come with 30 days of free post-adoption support through Petcademy.org. This benefit includes free access to Petcademy’s team of trainers/behaviorists, as well as access to online materials that will help you settle your new family member into your home. You can text unlimited questions to Petcademy and they'll respond within 24 hours (Monday-Friday).
