WE ARE A TX-BASED RESCUE. THIS DOG IS CURRENTLY LOCATED IN TX AND WILL BE TRANSPORTED UPON ADOPTION. Please fill out an adoption application at haydudeequine.org 🌟🐾 Meet Gypsy — Short Legs, Big Heart, Still Waiting 💛🐾 Gypsy has been waiting… and waiting… and waiting. And honestly? She’s waited far too long for a girl this special. At 2 years old and 28 pounds, Gypsy is a delightful blend of Cattle Dog smarts and Basset Hound charm — think low-rider body, big-dog energy, and a personality that could light up a room. She’s basically the off-road model of a best friend: compact, sturdy, and always ready for an adventure. Gypsy LOVES her walks and is getting better and better on leash every day. She’s happiest when she’s outside, exploring the yard, supervising chores, or keeping an eye out for squirrels (her self-appointed job, and she takes it very seriously). When playtime winds down, she’s just as content following her favorite human around like a loyal little shadow. She’s playful, affectionate, and full of goofy charm. Toys are fun. Shoelaces are very intriguing. And her signature low-rider zoomies? Absolutely legendary. 🐾 Gypsy’s Highlights: ✅ 2 years old, 28 lbs ✅ Dog-friendly ✅ House & crate trained ✅ Loves walks and outdoor time ✅ Sweet, silly, and full of personality ✅ Equal parts sass, snuggles, and sunshine While Gypsy does great with other dogs, cats are an unknown — mostly because Gypsy believes squirrels are public enemy #1 — so she may prefer a home without feline roommates. What Gypsy really wants, though, isn’t much. She wants a family who will love her quirks, laugh at her goofy legs, and finally give her the forever home she’s been patiently waiting for. She’s ready to be someone’s hiking buddy, couch companion, and daily dose of happiness. 💛 Gypsy has so much love to give — she just needs someone to give her a chance. Short legs. Big heart. Endless loyalty. ✨ Apply today at haydudeequine.org and let Gypsy finally stop waiting and start living the life she deserves. 🐾💛

Story
LYLA is an adorable little short stack looking for a home. She appears to be a Bagel -- a Basset Hound/Beagle mix. She's a friendly little medium-energy girl, about 2 years old and fully grown at 30 pounds. She loves attention and is very food motivated. She's dog friendly and best suited to a home with a physically-fenced yard to keep her from following her nose into trouble. We're pretty sure she can small a snack from 3 blocks away. If you'd like to meet Lyla, please fill out a dog adoption application at dreamhouserescue.org. We are happy to arrange a private meet with an approved adopter. You can meet Lyla at our weekly adoption event, Saturday 11:30-1:30 at PetSmart Eastgate. Our fully-vetted adoptable dogs go to prospective homes for a one-week trial period to make sure the dog and home are the right fit before an adoption is finalized. We only adopt dogs into homes where all current pets are spayed/neutered and current on vaccines and heartworm and flea and tick prevention. We do check veterinary references to make sure adopters are compliant with standard veterinary care. Our adoptable dogs are spayed/neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, heartworm tested, dewormed and current on flea and tick and heartworm prevention.

Story
Pita is a lovable 4-year-old Basset Hound/Jack Russell mix weighing about 30 lbs—and she’s got a heart as big as her sweet personality. This affectionate girl adores attention and would happily volunteer as your lap dog if given the chance. Pita loves being with her people and wants to go wherever you go. She’s a very good girl who comes when called, is fully housebroken, and already has all the important boxes checked: spayed, microchipped, and up to date on vaccinations. She also enjoys playing with toys and will surprise you with the occasional case of zoomies that shows off her fun, playful side. With her loyal nature, cuddly spirit, and just the right amount of silliness, Pita would make a wonderful companion for someone looking for a dog that truly wants to be part of everyday life.

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Mrs. Puff is a resilient sweetheart with an abundance of love to share. Estimated to have been born around January 3, 2021, she has already overcome a battle with heartworms and was successfully treated. Mrs. Puff was briefly adopted, only to be returned through no fault of her own when a new "fluffy" canine housemate didn't warm up to her.   She has lots of love to give and absolutely loves to play in the play yard. Mrs. Puff tends to favor women and would do great as an only dog or in a home with just one other canine companion. Her adoption fee is $250.   If you are interested in meeting this loving girl and potentially offering her a forever home, please complete an application on the A Doggie 4 You website at www.adoggie4you.org.   This dog is currently in Texas; however, it can be transported to Washington, Portland (Oregon), Minneapolis, Milwaukee, Chicago, Des Moines, Omaha, Cincinnati, Lexington KY or all along the East Coast. If transported, there is an additional transport fee of $250. We do not transport to Rhode Island or Massachusetts due to their regulations.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.December 17, 2025, 4:13 pm

Beagle Mixed Breed (Medium)

Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Meet Roxie! Roxie is a 6 year old, 52-lb, Beagle-mix who loves nothing more than to chill by her people. That's not entirely true; she may love food more than that. This highly food motivated girl would prefer to snuggle on your lap to big, extravagant adventures. Roxie gets along with other dogs but would prefer if they were also pretty low-key, or at least respectful of her space. She's fine with the cats, often watching them curiously but from a safe distance. She would gladly accept the role of "child's best friend" as she loves kids and loves hanging out with them. Occasionally, Roxie will get a playful streak in her and want you to play tug of war with her and a toy. Or in the very least, she wants you to acknowledge that she is, in fact, a pretty girl with a toy. One of Roxie's favorite past times is giving judgmental looks to everyone. Need some extra motivation to stick to your New Year's resolutions? Perfect, Roxie has the face for that! She will bestow a perfectly primed judgmental look to throw at you for all your life's decisions. "We listen but we don't judge?" Not here! Roxie will absolutely judge you but she'll look cute doing it. If you're looking for a low-key companion to snuggle with and share your deepest secrets with (at least she can't spill them, right??) Roxie is the dog for you! Roxie is currently being fostered in the Cincinnati, OH area. Her adoption fee is $275.00. To adopt this animal, please visit https://www.louieslegacy.org/adopt All of our animals come spayed or neutered, up to date on age appropriate vaccinations, are microchipped, heartworm negative, current on flea/tick and heartworm prevention, dewormed, and treated for any ailments found upon veterinary examination.
