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 hello y'all — I’m Moon Pie! 🥧🐾 (2 Years • 70 lbs • Male • Big Goof Energy Included) Yep, Moon Pie — like the sweet treat and like Sheldon’s Meemaw calls him on The Big Bang Theory. Because when you’re this lovable, wiggly, and impossible not to adore, you deserve a name that sounds like a hug. And let me tell you… I am a hug in dog form. I’m a big, lanky, floppy, happy boy with a giant heart and zero shame about belly rubs. I will dramatically roll over, squirm, wiggle, and grin while you rub my belly like it’s my full-time job (spoiler: it is). My foster dad calls me a total goof — and honestly, I take that as a compliment. I’m fully house trained (very proud of this accomplishment) and I’m doggie-door certified. If the door is ever locked, I politely wait like the gentleman I am instead of panicking or causing chaos. On walks, I usually stroll along nicely on a loose leash… unless a squirrel appears, or a potential new friend crosses my path, in which case I briefly but only briefly, forget my professionalism 😅 🐾 Moon Pie’s Fun Facts & Credentials: ✔️ House trained & crate trained (I relax quietly when you leave) ✔️ Uses the dog door like a pro ✔️ Walks well on leash — excitement moments included ✔️ Quiet at home — not much of a barker ✔️ Loves toys and can entertain himself like a one-dog circus ✔️ Knows “sit” and “stay” and takes treats gently ✔️ Super smart, eager to learn, and very trainable I’ve lived with a senior dog and we got along great — though I’ll admit, sometimes I forget not everyone wants to play as much as I do. I’d love a dog buddy who enjoys some playtime or a human who’s happy to help me keep polishing my manners. I really want to be the best boy. Oh — and if you’re into running or biking? Congratulations, you’ve just found your new workout partner. I love keeping pace and cruising alongside you like it’s no big deal. At the end of the day, I’m sweet, affectionate, goofy, active, and full of potential. I’m the kind of dog who brings laughter to your yard, calm to your home, and loyalty to your heart. If you’re looking for a loving, slightly ridiculous, incredibly charming companion with sweetness galore and is Meemaw-level approval… I think we might be a perfect match. 👉 Apply today at haydudeequine.org and bring home Moon Pie — the snack-sized name with the full-sized heart. 🖤🤍🥧🐾

Story
I'm gonna make you an wo-offer you can't refuse. That's Pacino's favorite phrase. The adoption deal is simple: a roof over his head, a cold dish of water, daily meals and treats, plus an abundance of love. What? It's a good deal! Pacino, now over a year old, has become a true Dogfather. He is well-behaved, happy-go lucky, is very handsome, and has a wonderful, playful nature; he fits seamlessly into any family. His lineage boasts a long line of Dog-Father's, tough dogs out in the world whose business is their own. But, they are loyal, loving and strong characters to have around you.. He's a potty-trained and crate-trained gentleman, but he still has a penchant for chewing. He adores treats and toys, but can go through them quickly. Proper and slow introductions to other dogs are essential. Pacino would thrive best with older kids. Join the legacy and give Pacino the family he deserves. After all, a dog like him is an offer you can't refuse. Local adoption fee is $200 (in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $400 (includes transport to your area - $50 Temporary Fuel Charge will be added)

Story
Hi, I’m Mr. Lavender.🪻 Yes, like the flower. Soft, gentle, and emotionally complex. I’m what you’d call a very sensitive soul. I feel things deeply. For example, if I ever get scolded—even just a tiny “no, Lavender”—I will slowly and quietly walk to my crate to process the heartbreak. I’ll curl up, sigh dramatically, and reflect on how I have disappointed everyone I love. It’s a whole moment. But the good news is, I’m very forgiving. All it takes is a soft voice and gentle pets, and suddenly I remember that life is beautiful again. And speaking of pets… once you start petting me, you cannot stop. I will gently place myself closer. And closer. And closer. If you stop, I will politely remind you with my eyes. If that doesn’t work, I will lean my entire body into you like a weighted blanket with feelings. Physical affection is my love language, my hobby, my life. Cuddling is one of my greatest talents. I don’t just cuddle—I commit to cuddling. I will curl into you, rest my head on you, and stay there like it’s my full-time job. Personal space? Never heard of it. If you move, I move. If you sit, I sit. If you exist, I’m next to you. I also love people-watching. Give me a window, and I will sit there peacefully, observing the neighborhood like a quiet little philosopher. I don’t bark or judge—I just observe and think my gentle thoughts. Loud noises, however, are not my favorite. I prefer calm homes, soft voices, and peaceful environments where I can relax and feel safe. I’m not into chaos. I’m into comfort, love, and cozy vibes. I’m wonderful with kids and other dogs. I’m gentle, patient, and kind. I don’t want any trouble—I just want friends and a place where I belong. I have a very sweet heart, and once I trust you, I will love you with everything I have. I’m not the loudest or boldest dog. I’m the soft one. The gentle one. The one who will quietly sit beside you and make everything feel calm and warm. If you’re looking for a loyal best friend, a professional cuddler, and a sweet soul who just wants to love and be loved… I’m the one.

Story
Jill’s story started in a ditch alongside her brother when she was just a tiny puppy. Despite such a rough beginning, this sweet girl has held onto her gentle heart. Jill is shy and a little nervous when meeting new people. At adoption events, when things feel overwhelming, she’ll simply curl up and go to sleep — her quiet way of coping with the big world around her. Because of this tender, cautious nature, she’s now over a year old and still waiting for someone to see the beautiful soul she truly is. But give Jill just a little time, patience, and kindness, and you’ll discover her real personality. 🌟 She blossoms into a happy, playful girl who loves zoomies in the yard, a good game of fetch, and romping around with other dogs. Once she feels safe, her nubby wags freely and her playful spirit shines. Jill doesn’t need much — just a calm, loving home willing to let her warm up at her own pace. In return, you’ll get the sweetest, most loyal companion who will quietly choose you as her person. Could you be the one to give Jill the safe forever she’s been waiting for?

Story
Hazel is very friendly and outgoing, and very loyal to her people! My two kids (8 and 5) love her, but she can be very strong when playing. I would recommend a home of adults OR older kids who can roughhouse with Hazel, as she has a lot of energy!She’s about a year and a half old. Loves running and playing but will only do it with a companion 😊 she has played well with one other dog before, and I’m unsure whether she would like living with another dog or not as we just don’t have that experience.We are expecting and will not be able to give Hazel the attention she needs in this new season of life. Hazel doesn’t have a mean bone in her body- she’s just built like a brick house and needs more strength than my kids or I can give her! 🥰Hazel went through a 4-week obedience training and knows the following commands: come, sit, down, place, crate, and eat.
