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 🐾🥧 Well butter my biscuit… meet Moon Pie! 🥧🐾 (2 Years • 70 lbs • Male • Southern Charm Included) Yes, Moon Pie — like the sweet Southern treat AND like Sheldon’s Meemaw lovingly calls him on The Big Bang Theory. Because let’s be honest… when you’re this lovable, you deserve a name that sounds like it should come with a hug and a glass of sweet tea. Moon Pie is a 70-pound hunk of black-and-white perfection with the kind of personality that makes people say, “How is he not already adopted?” He’s got the looks, the manners, and the résumé to back it all up — truly the full snack-size package. 📋 Moon Pie’s Very Impressive Resume (Typed, Proofread, No Typos): ✔️ Housebroken — your rugs are safe ✔️ Crate trained & doggy-door certified (he’s basically tech-savvy) ✔️ Fantastic with other dogs, especially medium-to-large buddies ✔️ Great with older kids — playful but polite, like a Southern gentleman ✔️ Walks beautifully on leash — no dragging, no nonsense... all class ✔️ Up to date on vaccines & rabies ✔️ Neutered and emotionally ready for commitment At 2 years old, Moon Pie has mastered the art of balance: he can zoom, splash, play, and clown around like a pro… then immediately switch to Gentleman Mode™ when it’s time for a walk or some quality couch time. He reads the room well, respects boundaries with other dogs, and brings joyful energy without chaos — think fun, not frantic. He loves people, thrives on companionship, and truly wants to be part of a family. Underneath that handsome exterior is a soft-hearted, loyal boy who’s just waiting for someone to look at him and say, “Yep. You’re my Moon Pie.” So if you’re searching for a dog who’s happy, solid, affectionate, and has the kind of Southern name that implies unconditional love and sweetness galore — this is your guy. 👉 Apply today at haydudeequine.org and bring home Moon Pie — the kind of dog Meemaw herself would approve of. 🖤🤍🥧🐾

Story
Mishka came from a house of abuse and neglect, but despite that, she is the sweetest, happiest young pup! She is a dog that will bond hard to you and be your forever sidekick. She is friendly to people and dogs and cats and has the cutest pouty lower lip. She is short and compact with a cute buttroll above her tail when she sits and has very expressive eyes! She loves to play with toys and other dogs and is super bouncy and learning how to fetch! She is a smart girl that is quick to learn, and a very sensitive personality that needs a gentle person as her leader. She loves to lean on you and sit close.

Story
Meet us at Tractor Supply 1253 Route 311, Patterson, NY 12563 on Sunday 1/18/2026 from 11am to 1pm. (Always check our hours and events page in case of inclement weather changes before heading out to the event: https://pawsafe.org/events/ ) 🐾 Meet the "Action Pack" – 11-Week-Old Boxer/Shepherd Mixes! Are you looking for a best friend who is equal parts "wiggle-butt" and "smartypants"? Meet our litter of Boxer/Shepherd mixes! At 11 weeks old, these chunky monkeys are the perfect age to start their forever journey with a family who loves adventure. The Best of Both Worlds These pups have hit the genetic jackpot. They’ve got the Boxer’s famous sense of humor and "kid-at-heart" energy, blended with the Shepherd’s intelligence and loyal, protective nature. They are "velcro dogs" in the making! Health & Stats We’ve done the heavy lifting so you can focus on the bonding: • Age: 11 Weeks • Health: Up to date on all age-appropriate vaccinations and preventatives. • Status: Already spayed/neutered and ready to go home on 1/18/2026! • Size: They are currently medium-sized solid pups, but expect them to grow into sturdy, athletic companions (approx. 50–70 lbs). What Their Future Looks Like These aren't couch potato pups! Because they are believed to be half Shepherd, they crave mental stimulation (think puzzle toys and training games). Because they are also believed to be half Boxer, they need room to zoom. They would thrive in homes with: 1. Active Lifestyles: Hikers, runners, or backyard ball-throwers. 2. Training Enthusiasts: They are eager to please and will excel in puppy manners classes. 3. Cuddle Buddies: Once the zoomies are out, they are professional-grade snugglers. How to meet dogs listed with "NY" : If the dog is listed with an 'Avail date" and a (location) - the dog cannot be met until the event and it is a first come, first served adoption event with the dogs being met in the order the potential adopters sign in. If the dog is listed as being in a (foster home ie: Foster in Carmel) please email us at info@pawsafe.org and we will set up an appointment for you to meet the dog(s) that interest you at their foster home(s). **** We are sorry, but we cannot adopt to Massachusetts residents. This is a Ma Dept. of Agriculture policy, not ours.
