Story
Meet Delilah! Fast facts:  Breed: Boston terrier, Australian shepherd Weight: 25 pounds Age: 2 years young!  House/Crate trained: yes! Delilah hasn’t had a single accident while living in her foster home, and she even knows the word “outside”! She also goes right into her crate and is quiet while she’s in it.  Energy level: medium energy. She loves to cuddle with you on the couch most of the time, but also occasionally loves to chase a ball or play tug of war! Tricks: Delilah is smart and food-motivated and has already learned sit and stay in the short time she’s been in her foster home.  Noisiness: quiet most of the time, but may bark when someone comes in the house, or if she sees a stranger outside. She would likely do fine in an apartment. * Delilah would thrive as an only dog. * Delilah would do best in a home without cats. * Delilah would do best in a home with no children.  Personality: Shy and scared at first, but once she warms up (which is usually pretty quick), she absolutely ADORES her humans! She is super cuddly and wants to be right next to you at all times.   Delilah came from a home with 5 other dogs, and she likely didn’t get much to herself. Because of this, she came to her foster home with resource guarding issues, primarily around toys and her humans. She would guard her humans against other people and even pets, and didn’t want anyone else getting near her humans. With toys, she would growl whenever anyone tried to take them from her. She has made a lot of progress in her foster home on both of these fronts - she has learned “leave it” and “drop it”, she has learned that there are boundaries for her human-time (ie she is only allowed to get cuddles when we allow it), and she has learned that she can trade toys for treats or other items. For this reason, we think Delilah would do best with an experienced adopter who will continue to work on her training, so that she continues to build confidence and trust! This medium sized, 25 pound girl is already full grown at 2 years old. The best part? Delilah looks like a permanent puppy! Just look at those big old eyes - gorgeous half brown, half blue in both eyes, that make her look like a pound puppy or a littlest pet shop toy! She will melt your heart with those puppy dog eyes when she meets you! Her eyes aren’t the only thing unique about Delilah. Check out her fur - brindle, but also Merle splotched at the same time. All of it is topped off with an adorable nubby tail! She’s one of the most unique-looking dogs foster mom has seen!  Delilah has a unique personality to go right along with her unique looks. She is a bit scared at first - especially of big, tall people. She may bark or shake when she first meets some people. However, she warms up quick - she was jumping up into foster mom’s lap within minutes of walking into her foster home! Her favorite place to be is in your lap, giving you kisses, or burrowing under the blankets and snuggling against you in bed. But she also has a playful streak - she absolutely loves tug of war and fetch! Delilah gets very vocal when she plays - she growls so much she sounds like she’s revving her engines! But there’s nothing to be scared of, that’s just one of her little quirks!  If you’re looking for an adorable, young, small-medium sized dog, who can shower you in so much love that you’ll be excited to get home and see her every day (foster mom certainly is!), then apply to adopt Delilah today!  October 15, 2026, 6:47 pm

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.October 15, 2026, 6:47 pm

Story
Meet Jimmy! This 5-year-old black and white Boston Terrier mix is a sweet, gentle boy who is slowly learning to trust and feel safe. When he first arrived, he was very shy and scared, but he is beginning to come out of his shell and gain confidence. He does well with kids and other dogs, though his behavior around cats is unknown. He is up to date on vaccinations, fixed, microchipped, and has tested negative for heartworm. Despite his timid start, he has a soft, loving side. He does well during baths and enjoys being held, where he feels secure and comforted. With patience and kindness, he is sure to continue blossoming into a wonderful companion.   If you would like to meet any of our pets, they are available for viewing, every single day from noon until 3:30pm. If you have other dogs a meet and greet is required. Calling before a long drive is recommended to confirm availability.

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Meet Missy! Must go to a home with NO other animals.  Missy LOVES people and kids, and everyone who meets her falls in love with her bubbly, affectionate personality. She is a very loving girl who is happiest spending time with her people. Missy is high energy and would thrive with an active family who can give her plenty of exercise, playtime, and attention. She loves her toys, enjoys carrying them around, and walks well on leash, although she can pull and is quite strong. She is mostly potty trained and may have a few accidents while learning a new routine. She can also get excited and jump up when greeting people, so she'll need someone willing to continue working on her manners. Missy has one very important requirement: she must be the only animal in the home. She is aggressive toward other dogs and small animals and cannot live with dogs, cats, or other pets. She must go to a home with a fully fenced, secure backyard that she cannot escape from and an active family who understands and respects her needs.  Missy is spayed, microchipped, heartworm negative, vaccinated, and current on ProHeart 12 and Bravecto. Her adoption fee is $300. Apply to adopt Missy at www.adoggie4you.org.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Meet Gus – Your New Best Friend!  Gus is a lovable Pug mix with a heart as sweet as they come. Through no fault of his own, he found himself owner surrendered to a shelter, but he's ready to leave that chapter behind and find the forever family he deserves. Gus can be unsure of meeting new people at first, and may be a little shy and territorial. Once he knows you, he will be your best friend for life. He will welcome you with kisses, happy jumps, lots of tail wags.  When Gus was owner surrendered, we were told that he is potty trained and does know how to use a bell to alert when needing to use the bathroom. He is also not much of a barker, gets along great with dogs, rides well in a car, and walks well on leash.  Gus is neutered, 4DX negative, microchipped, current on all vaccinations, and protected with ProHeart 12 and Bravecto.  His adoption fee is $400. To apply to adopt Gus, visit www.adoggie4you.org. Gus is currently located in Texas but can be transported to Washington, Portland (Oregon), Minneapolis, Milwaukee, Chicago, Des Moines, Omaha, Cincinnati, Lexington (Kentucky), and locations along the East Coast for an additional $250 transport fee. Please note that transport is not available to Rhode Island or Massachusetts due to state regulations.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.October 15, 2026, 3:43 pm

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 Pumpkin! A Little Dog with a BIG Heart! At 26 pounds, Pumpkin may be a little girl with some pretty BIG ears, but her heart is even bigger! This adorable 2-year-old Pug/Chihuahua mix (our best guess) has been through more than any dog should ever have to endure. After her family moved and left her behind, Pumpkin and her puppies were found wandering the streets, searching for food and trying to survive. But despite everything she's been through, Pumpkin's sweet spirit has never faded. She has been an AMAZING momma to her babies and an even MORE amazing foster girl! Now, it's her turn to be someone's baby. Pumpkin is sweet, smart, affectionate, and full of personality! She gets along well with other dogs and would most likely do well with cats, too. She absolutely LOVES being petted, and if you're heading out for a drive, she'd be thrilled to ride shotgun right beside you! And just wait until you see her mealtime routine! This clever girl will SPIN and SIT before receiving her bowl of food. Talk about a smart cookie! She's eager to learn, loves attention, and is sure to bring so much joy and laughter to her forever home. After spending so much time taking care of everyone else, Pumpkin deserves a family who will finally take care of HER. A family who will give her a cozy bed, a full belly, endless belly rubs, adventures in the car, and all the love and security she should have had from the beginning. Pumpkin is ready for her happily ever after! She's given so much love to others. Now, she's waiting for someone to choose her, cherish her, spoil her rotten, and promise her that she'll never be left behind again. Could you be the forever family this big-eared, big-hearted girl has been waiting for? Adopt Pumpkin and let her be your passenger princess for life!
