Story
Tawny is proof that sometimes the sweetest things come in tiny puppy packages.
At only 3 months old, this adorable little boy is already stealing hearts everywhere he goes. He has a wonderful personality that combines playful puppy fun with a calm, loving nature. He’s the kind of puppy who can make you laugh with his silly antics one minute and melt your heart with his sweet cuddles the next.
Tawny is a happy puppy who genuinely enjoys life. He loves exploring new things, playing with toys, and spending time with the people around him. Every day is an exciting new adventure, and he approaches it all with enthusiasm and curiosity.
He is also doing an amazing job with his training. Tawny is learning commands and making great progress with potty training. He is eager to learn, eager to please, and eager to be the very best boy he can be. His intelligence and willingness to learn will make continuing his training a rewarding experience for his future family.
One of the things people love most about Tawny is his sweet temperament. He is playful without being overwhelming and affectionate without being demanding. He enjoys attention, loves being pet, and is always happy to spend time with his people. He has a gentle, loving nature that makes everyone who meets him fall a little bit in love.
Because Tawny is expected to grow into a medium-to-large-sized dog, he would do best in a home with a securely fenced yard where he can run, play, and safely burn off puppy energy. He is going to grow into a big, beautiful dog who will appreciate having space to stretch his legs and enjoy outdoor fun.
Tawny is at such a wonderful stage in life. He is learning about the world, building confidence, developing his personality, and getting ready for the next chapter of his journey. What he needs now is a family to guide him through it all.
The family lucky enough to adopt Tawny will get to watch him grow from a sweet little puppy into a loyal, loving best friend. They’ll get the puppy kisses, the goofy moments, the adventures, the cuddles, and all the special memories that come with raising a wonderful dog.
Tawny is ready to start that journey with a family of his own. Could that family be yours?

https://g.co/kgs/UQ5Pyai We care deeply about creating lasting matches between dog and family for long term success, and take the time to ensure each adoption is a fit through our matchmaking process.
At our 2 acre Texas based property, we assess every animal with trainers on staff, we modify behavior as needed, and create individualized behavior plans to help prepare dogs for their future families including crate training, potty training, leash walking, etc. Our fosters are able to attend group training and socialization play groups helping them stay confident, well rounded, and adoption-ready. Our on-site trainers are dedicated to each dog’s growth and we enjoy seeing their progress!
We go above and beyond to ensure every animal receives exceptional care. Veterinarians consistently praise our medical standards. From routine care to advanced treatments, each dog receives personalized attention. Hard costs for a healthy dog range from $804-$920; heartworm-positive dogs or those needing specialized care can exceed $2,000+. Adoption fees help cover a portion of these expenses, but without government funding, we rely on fundraising to bridge the gap—ranging from $100–$1,000+ per dog.
Our adoption fees reflect the extensive care and resources that go into each animal we save. The adoption fee is a donation to the mission and goes far beyond getting a fully vetted pet.
