Story
Max is a 5-month-old puppy with a friendly and playful personality. He enjoys playing, being around people, and has lots of energy. He is current on his rabies vaccination, deworming, and flea/tick prevention (Bravecto). He has not bitten anyone and is still young, so he will continue to benefit from training and socialization. I am looking for a loving, stable home where he will receive plenty of attention, exercise, and patience as he grows. This decision is due to changes in my family circumstances and is not because of any fault of Max's. He deserves a family that can give him the time and consistency he needs.

Story
One morning in May of 2025, we found Byron in a busy intersection at Howard and Gregg in Pflugerville. He was emaciated, patchy, dirty, and so sad. We took him to the vet and started our journey to getting him healthy and happy. They said he was 6 months old at the time, and weighed 22lbs. Right after finding Byron, we found out we were going to be having a baby. Over the last year, we have worked hard to address his allergies, put weight on him, and help his hair grow back. He's looking and feeling great! Unfortunately, there have been three separate instances of him getting aggressive with small children. It struck us incredibly odd, because he's such a sweet dog with us and our older children. We recently learned he's blind in his right eye, so we think what has happened is they've caught him off guard. Regardless, we can't risk it with our new baby. We have to find this sweet pup a new home.Byron is a lazy lay-arounder. He is home alone A LOT, and is never destructive or anxious.

Dora is the best dog and a perfectly lovely girl in all respects. She came from a terrible background and nearly froze to death before she was saved from a very high kill shelter. Today, she's all smiles all the time, romping and playing with her many friends at Dogtown Ranch while she waits for her perfect family to come along. Could that be you? Call us today and let's put Dora under your Christmas tree...you couldn't find a better dog to join the family and raise kids with.

Story
Maisy is generally a very sweet girl, but she is a working breed and full of energy that I'm now less able to take care of. She's about 4-5 years old. I got her 2.5 years ago from a cousin who found her on the side of the road, untagged, but they weren't able to keep her. She loves squeaky toys, playing fetch, walks and car rides.At the time I got her I only had a cat who she loves to chase and he tolerates her. Since then I've adopted another dog, and while 99% of the time they get along great, every once in a while there will be a moment of high excitement or over-stimulation that sets Maisy off.Also, being a herding dog she fixates on my young nieces and nephews when they play, trying to herd them and the high energy play, and screaming clearly gets her amped up and I have to restrain her before she gets too into it.She is such a sweet girl that I would hate to put her into a shelter, that would be a terrible place for her personality, but she just can't fit in my family anymore.

Story
This tiny puppy is part of Vireya’s litter of seven, born just 4 days ago after their family was found in a pile of rubble. They are currently healthy and safe in mom’s care, and are still fully dependent on her for nursing and warmth. Vireya is an incredibly devoted mother who has been caring for her babies nonstop since birth. Because the puppies are so young, they must remain with mom, and are only being considered for a foster home willing to take the entire family together. This little one isn’t available separately—this is a mom-and-babies foster placement to give them the safest start possible.

These pups are in Leander, Texas too!
