Story
Benny was found running the streets in a stray dog pack in the Rio Grande Valley. When he first came here, he was fearful around men and could be a bully to new dogs, but he's come a long way since then. Once he gets to know you, he's a sweet, funny, playful dog who wants to be with you as much as possible. Benny was initially cat-aggressive, but he's been around cats for several months and has grown used to them. He mostly ignores them but sometimes chases them. He can be around cats, but should not be left alone with them. (I kennel him when we leave.) Benny gets along well with most female dogs, but he can be dominant towards male dogs. He shows some resource guarding of both food and people and seems to want to "defend" his people from other dogs. That doesn't mean he can't get along with other dogs or other male dogs, but he needs to be introduced to other dogs carefully. The same can be true for introducing him to new people---he needs some time to build trust. Someone who is willing to take time and socialize Benny with other people and animals would be a great adopter. Benny is a great dog who really wants to please. He is loving, affectionate, and playful.

Story
This is George around 11 years per lady that re- homed him, owner passed away. I took George in around 10 months ago. He loves to walk and play ball. George is healthy, at the time I took in 3 dogs to save from shelter. I have two small dogs Yorkie and Shitzu who now have illness. I am a senior and developed back issues that need medical attention. George is up to date on all shots. He needs a loving home to live out rest of his life. I regret that I can no longer handle 5 dogs. I cannot afford the upkeep with my own health and my two little sick dogs. George came from Oklahoma and lived with 10 Yorkies and couple other dogs his owner passed away from long illness. George is very mellow and good natured would make a great companion for senior. George is inside dog and cannot be out in heat or cold. George is spoiled and loves to play with my silky terrier whom I adopted around same time. I am hoping someone will give him a good loving home. ❤️

Details
House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
White Pine is a loving, playful companion who brings a special kind of warmth to every day. This small, sweet girl adores being close to her people and is happiest when she can curl up in your lap or relax by your side. Her affectionate nature makes her a wonderful cuddle buddy, and she’s always ready to soak up attention. She also has a fun, spirited side and enjoys squeaky toys and a good game of tug. White Pine loves to play and engage, making her a great mix of snuggly and lively. She’s well-mannered in the home, crate trained, house trained, walks nicely on leash, and comes when called. White Pine will do best with a thoughtful introduction to new environments and companions, and she truly shines when she feels comfortable and connected with her people. If you’re looking for a devoted, sweet companion with both playful energy and a love for cuddles, White Pine could be a wonderful match. Reach out to learn more about bringing her home or fostering her.

Estella

Cairn Terrier

Female, 8 yrs 3 mos
Austin, TX
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Sitter needed: 03/29/26 - 04/07/26 Estella is a soulful, sensitive girl who bonds deeply with her person. She has settled beautifully into a home environment and thrives with predictability, gentle handling, and a calm pace of life. She loves leisurely walks, long naps, and showing off her tricks for treats (those puppy eyes are hard to resist!). She adores squeaky toys and is very gentle when she plays. She’s more “walk and nap” than high-energy. Estella would do best in an adult-only home with a calm, low-traffic environment. She needs a family who understands dog body language and respects her boundaries. She communicates clearly when she’s uncomfortable, so she’ll do best with someone who listens and responds with patience. Estella will flourish with someone patient, attuned, and ready to offer a peaceful home!
