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
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Hi, I’m Linette. I came from a shelter where I was on the euthanasia list, but I got a second chance when I was transferred here. I’m really grateful to be safe now, and I’m ready to find a home of my own. I’m a Basenji mix and, if I may say so, a very sweet girl. I’ve really come out of my shell and now greet people with lots of tail wags right away! I get along well with other dogs and have done great with everyone I’ve met. I’m a spunky, playful girl who loves attention and interaction. I can get a little bouncy when I’m excited—I may jump and do some playful “love nips,” which is just my way of having fun and showing affection. Because of this, I’d do best with older, considerate kids who understand dog behavior and can help me keep learning good manners. I still have a gentle side and would do well in many different homes. I just need someone kind who will continue to guide me and give me the love I’ve been waiting for. I’m spayed, up to date on all my vaccines, 4dx test negative, protected with ProHeart 12 and Bravecto, and microchipped—so I’m all ready to head home whenever you are. My adoption fee is $400. If you think we might be a good match, you can apply for me at www.adoggie4you.org . I’m currently in Texas, but I can travel to Washington, Portland (Oregon), Minneapolis, Milwaukee, Chicago, Des Moines, Omaha, Cincinnati, Lexington, KY, and along the East Coast. If I need a ride, there’s an additional $225 transport fee. (I’m not able to travel to Rhode Island or Massachusetts due to state rules.)Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.May 13, 2026, 5:23 pm

These sweet boys have quite the story—but they’re ready to leave the past behind and start their next chapter. They were found wandering a neighborhood, hungry and just trying to survive. Now safe and cared for, they’re learning that meals will always be there—no more rushing or going without. Despite everything, their gentle, loving personalities shine through. They absolutely adore attention and will happily follow you around, soaking up every bit of affection they can get. Watching them discover toys for the first time is pure joy—especially when they pounce on a crinkly one like it’s the best thing ever! These boys are full of love, curiosity, and resilience. Now all they need is a forever family to show them just how good life can be. Local adoption fee is $250(in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $550 (includes transport to your area)

Story
Hi there I am NalaI am a mature, self confident dog who would love to find a forever home. I live now with other dogs who I love to play with, cats who I respect and play with if they want to, and kids who like to pet me. I have not had much experience with toys, but I do love a good game of tug. I like to be active, but I am good to just chill out with you too. Nothing like an evening of cuddling with the family to make my day complete.I like car rides, I do not get sick, and I stay calm. My foster says I make a great copilot. I know all my basic commands like sit and stay and I love to walk. When I am walking with my foster I stay close and walk at their pace. If it sounds like we would be a good fit, then just fill in the application and we can meet on a Zoom call.Just waiting for you.NalaThis dog is currently in foster care in La Paz, Mexico, but will be transported upon adoption or foster placement. As a U.S. nonprofit, Hope 4 La Pawz, handles all logistics and provides full behavioral and medical info in advance.

Story
✅Currently located in South Korea✅️ 💟Available to fly to SEA💟 The prices listed are based on USD, and the adoption fee will be calculated in CAD according to the exchange rate. Meet White🤍 💙 News & Updates: @_adogs_ ​1⃣ Health Status * ​Neutered: Yes. ​* Microchipped, and heartworm Negative. ​* Has received professional dental scaling, but due to severe staining, his teeth may not appear perfectly white. One or two canines are slightly chipped, but since the nerves are not damaged, no immediate treatment is required. ​2⃣ Rescue Story * ​White was rescued from the Juksan dog meat farm. He endured the trauma of witnessing his friends being slaughtered before his eyes until Adogs successfully shut down the farm and brought him to safety. ​3⃣ Personality & Traits * ​Interaction with People: Is a bit shy and tends to cautiously avoid strangers. However, he can be won over with treats! While he stays close to those he knows, he still gets a bit "flighty" when someone reaches out to touch him. If gently cornered, he accepts touch well, and familiar faces can pet him anywhere without issue. Though not yet overtly affectionate, he is slowly opening his heart. We believe he will bond quickly once he settles into a consistent home environment. * ​Interaction with Dogs: Gets along well with other dogs. He isn't the type to rush up to new dogs, but plays and runs around happily with his familiar furry friends. * ​Interaction with Cats: Not yet tested. * ​Separation Anxiety: Unknown, as he currently lives in a group setting at the center. * ​House Training: Currently only relieves himself outdoors at the center. * ​Grooming: Might try to run away when it's time for maintenance, but once you catch him, he is very well-behaved during petting and brushing. * ​Walking: Is still getting used to leash walks and can be a bit nervous. We recommend walking in quiet, familiar areas. Doesn't pull on the leash, but may "freeze" or resist moving if he encounters something scary. Needs patient, consistent practice. * ​Car Rides: Travels well without any motion sickness. * ​Mouthiness/Biting: Has never shown any defensive or territorial biting. * ​Barking: Rarely barks, though he sometimes joins in when other dogs bark at visitors. * ​Likes: Loves treats! His motivation for food often helps him overcome his fear of people. * ​Dislikes: Is wary and fearful of strangers, vehicles, and unfamiliar external stimuli.

Story
Meet Nala – Ready for Her Fresh Start Nala is a 3 ½-year-old Black Mouth Cur/Basenji mix with a heart as sweet as her gentle spirit. Her journey hasn’t been an easy one—she was found as a pregnant stray, and despite the challenges, she devoted herself to raising her puppies with love and care. Now that her little ones are grown, it’s finally Nala’s turn to shine and experience what it means to be the one who’s cherished. This beautiful girl is fully vetted—spayed, microchipped, vaccinated, and kept on flea, tick, and heartworm prevention—so she’s ready to step into her forever home. She is both kennel trained and potty trained, which makes her an easy fit into a new routine. Nala also walks nicely on a leash and rides well in the car when kenneled, making outings and adventures with her a pleasure. Nala’s personality is a mix of sweetness and playfulness. She loves to play, enjoys attention, and thrives when she’s at the center of her family’s world. With her soulful eyes and quiet charm, she’s the kind of companion who will be devoted and loyal once trust is built. Her perfect home would not have small children, as her enthusiasm and playful energy could easily knock them over. She blossoms in a calm and structured environment and is ready to pour her love into the people who open their hearts to her. Nala has been through so much, but her resilient spirit shines. She’s more than ready for her new beginning—a safe, loving home where she can finally rest, play, and be adored. Could Nala be your perfect match?
