Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Meet Griffin, a sweet and gentle boy from a litter of seven who is waiting for a patient, loving family to call his own! Born on August 30, 2025, Griffin weighs 11.8 pounds and has a quiet charm all his own. Griffin’s mom is a beautiful pure bred Boston Terrier who found herself on the streets.  We suspect the dad was a local unnamed politician that promised the moon.  A good Samaritan rescued the mom and fostered her puppies until they were 8 weeks old.   Griffin is our shy boy. He loves attention and affection, but he needs a little time to get to know you first. Once he feels comfortable, his playful side shines through! He adores toys and playtime and promises to be a fun and loving companion once he has built his trust in you. This little pup needs someone with the time and patience to continue his training and socialization, helping him build confidence and grow into a well-adjusted adult dog. If Griffin sounds like the perfect, sweet addition to your family, please complete an application on our website: www.adoggie4you.org.  His adoption fee is $350. 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 $225. We do not transport to Rhode Island or Massachusetts due to their regulations.

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Meet Grant, the charming "big boy" of a litter of seven, weighing in at a sturdy 12.1 pounds! Born on August 30, 2025, Grant is an adventurous, people-oriented pup ready to find a family who can keep up with his lively spirit. Grant’s mom is a beautiful pure bred Boston Terrier who found herself on the streets.  We suspect the dad was the encyclopedia salesman.  A good Samaritan rescued the mom and fostered her puppies until they were 8 weeks old.   Grant has earned himself the nickname of "puppy pen escape artist" in the rescue. His mission in life is to be right where the action is and, most importantly, right by his people’s side! This clever boy is looking for a secure home environment and a family ready for fun and companionship. Like all young puppies, Grant needs someone with the time and patience to continue his training and socialization so he can grow into a confident, well-mannered adult. He’s smart, eager to learn, and promises to fill your life with entertainment and love. His adoption fee is $350. If Grant sounds like the perfect, playful addition to your family, please complete an application on our website: www.adoggie4you.org.

Looking for a little dog with a lot of heart? Meet Ian! This pint-sized black and white pup is living proof that a broken hip and medical needs do not mean a broken spirit! Ian's hip has healed but he is on daily meds for a medical condition, Diabetes insipidus. Despite it all, Ian is fun, boisterous, and full of playful energy that is absolutely contagious. Ian may be small, but he has a big love for life. He thrives on attention and is constantly looking for a game of seek with his toys or a good cuddle session. He plays well with other dogs, making him a great potential new sibling for your current furry friend. When it comes to his favorite things, toys rank high on the list, and food is right up there too; he's happily not picky about his meals... He eats from a slow feeder bowl to make sure he doesn't get too overzealous with his meals and is able to digest well. Ian is looking for a loving home where his joyful personality can shine and he can get the care and affection he deserves. Are you ready to give this resilient, playful boy a chance at a happy forever home? Basic Info: Male, 1 yr old Boston Terrier/Chihuahua Coat: Black and White UTD on shots and parasitic preventatives. Diabetes Insipidus: affects urine concentration, requires twice daily meds to maintain healthy urine and for bladder contraction to aid in fully emptying the bladder Local adoption fee (Texas) - $200 Out of state adoption (includes transport to your area) ‐ $450

Hi! My name is Winston! My brother (Riley) and I were found running the streets of Universal City. I am the big brother. We were both really scared. We have been with our foster mommy for about a week now. I am gradually coming out of my shell. I am still a little timid. I will come over and want pets and get up in your lap, but I'm not quite ready yet. That will not stop me from nipping at your toes!!! I do it playfully to get your attention. Remember, I am still a puppy with a lot of puppy energy and puppy traits! I love toys and will take all of the toys out of the toy box until I find the perfect one! I like to make it snow as well! Did you know it can snow in your living room? Let me demonstrate for you. I also love to play with my brother and foster siblings. One of my favorite games is chase. I am also a talker! Local adoption fee in Texas is $350 Out of state adoption fee with transport and fuel surcharge is $650.

Story
Meet Ginger! An adorable senior with the soul of a puppy. Ginger must be an only pet. She does not like to share her humans or her possessions. She divides her time equally between playing and cuddling. She gets a little grumbly if you decide to end either before she's ready but she does correct easily. I wouldn't recommend a home with kids because of her desire not to share. This sweet girl has a history of struvite crystals and does require observations for flareups. She also has dry eye and will need prescription eye ointment lifelong. Otherwise, she is in good health. If you are a strong, patient pack leader and are looking for a cuddly ball of energy, Ginger may be your girl.June 30, 2025, 10:08 pm

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Meet Bandit, a handsome young pug with an adventurous streak and a heart full of love! Born around May 14, 2024, this sweet 18.4-pound boy was found exploring a local subdivision, charming multiple neighbors along the way. While everyone wanted to help the little runaway, Bandit proved himself to be quite the escape artist, cleverly digging out of various yards in his determined quest to find the action! Bandit is a true social butterfly. His main goal in life is to be right where the people are. When he gets loose, he doesn't run away; he rushes towards companionship! He is looking for a secure yard and a family who will give him plenty of attention and keep him close by, satisfying his deep desire to be part of the pack. Bandit has been fully vetted and is now receiving treatment for anaplasmosis, a common tick-borne disease discovered during his initial exam. He is doing great and just needs to complete his 30-day course of medication. He's on the mend and ready for his fresh start. This resilient, people-loving pug is eager to trade his days of solo adventures for a lifetime of cozy cuddles and family fun. If you’re looking for a loyal, friendly companion who promises to keep you entertained and loved, Bandit is eagerly waiting to steal your heart! You can apply for Bandit at www.adoggie4you.org.  His adoption fee is $350.  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 $225. We do not transport to Rhode Island or Massachusetts due to their regulations.
