She is in a foster home in Houston, TX and can transport out of state once an approved adopter is lined up! The amazing Teeka is on the hunt for her forever home. She specializes in best friending with an emphasis on playing! She currently lives with several larger dogs and is learning to respect their boundaries. She LOVES to play with them, but does need some help realizing when her foster siblings are ready to stop. She has not met any cats, so we’re not sure how she’d react to a feline sibling. Her foster mom says she’s done well meeting new human friends and is learning not to jump on them. Because of this and her high energy levels, we do recommend a home with older dog savvy kids. This smartie is house and crate trained! She sleeps quietly in her crate and is kenneled whenever her foster family is out of the house. We don’t recommend leaving her out unsupervised as she may help herself to whatever she finds in the kitchen. Teeka’s love for food is next level and she will try to sneak a bite from you or the other dog’s bowls, but has shown no signs of resource guarding. She is still working on her leash manners, but is getting better every day! She gets a little too excited when she sees other dogs, but is learning to calm down and continue on her walk. This happy girl absolutely loves toys! She knows where the toy basket is and will get one so you can join in the fun. She’s a huge fan of fetch and tug of war! Teeka is learning the joys of relaxing too. She loves to lay on your legs and get some pets and give some kisses. She’s happy just to be near her humans. Teeka is a young pup with boundless energy that will thrive in a home with a yard, daily exercise, training and patience. She’s a goofy, happy, loving girl and with just one look into those pretty doe eyes, your heart will melt! ***Listed BREED and AGE - We are taking our best guess & recommendations from our veterinarian on age, breed and size when fully grown. We rarely know a dog's exact age nor are we able to tell the true or full breed mix of dogs as our information is limited most of the time. *** Interested in applying to adopt her?

Ann Marie is the kind of dog who makes you wonder why anyone ever leaves the couch in the first place. One look at her wiggly little body, her happy piggy-snorts, and her dramatic belly-flop routine and you’ll understand exactly why her foster calls her the absolute sweetest girl ever. Honestly, “Ann Marie” feels a little too formal for a dog whose greatest passions in life are naps, snacks, belly rubs, and aggressively cuddling anyone who dares sit down near her. This girl is basically a professional snuggler. She may not have the trophy to prove it, but she is fully convinced she won first place years ago. Her signature move? The Belly Roll™. The second she senses affection might be available, she’ll dramatically plop onto her back, wiggle-wiggle across the couch, and patiently wait for her spa treatment. Belly rubs are not optional in Ann Marie’s world… they are simply part of the daily schedule. Watch her rolls and wiggles in action here! https://youtu.be/8SoGUl3IYv8 At around 8 years old and 50 pounds, Ann Marie has perfected the art of being the ideal low-maintenance companion. We think she may be a boxer/beagle mix, but with rescue it’s always a guess! She’s happy to snooze beside you during a movie marathon, supervise your patio lunch date, join you for a beach day, or accompany you on leisurely strolls around the neighborhood. She’s got enough goofy sparkle left to make you laugh every day, but none of the “chaos gremlin” energy that comes with younger dogs. She is the perfect mix of silly and settled. Her foster says she spends most of her day happily napping on the couch, and honestly? She’s extremely talented at it. Ann Marie absolutely adores people. She lights up around affection and naturally gravitates toward human companionship wherever she goes. She’s lived with a child and done wonderfully, and her foster says she’s been around large groups of people in the home and happily soaked up every ounce of attention. She’s the kind of dog who wants to quietly exist alongside her people, occasionally waddling over for kisses and couch cuddles before returning to her very important nap schedule. When it comes to other dogs, Ann Marie is very much a “thank you, but I already have my people” kind of girl. She’s confident, socially appropriate, and has shown respectful greetings and easy leash manners around other dogs, but she isn’t particularly interested in doggy friendships or chaotic playgroups. Her behavior team described her as more of a roamer who prefers calm energy and personal space. Because of that, Ann Marie would likely be happiest as the only dog in the home where she can fully relax and soak up all the attention. However, with the right match, she may also do well with a calm, confident, lower-energy male dog who respects boundaries and doesn’t try to constantly engage her. If there’s already another dog in the home, her rescue team would want a trainer discussion beforehand to help ensure it’s the right fit for everyone involved. She has also done well around cats, but she would do best with calm, dog-savvy kitties who mostly keep to themselves. Ann Marie isn’t looking for a feline wrestling partner, so playful cats who want to zoom around, swat at her, or constantly get in her face probably wouldn’t be her style. A mellow, respectful cat companion would be much more her speed. She’s house-trained, non-destructive, rides wonderfully in the car, walks beautifully on leash, and doesn’t need much exercise beyond short strolls and sniffy adventures. She would be an amazing apartment dog. And she would be just as content with a yard to sunbathe in. Her ideal home would probably involve comfy furniture, soft blankets, snacks magically appearing on schedule, and humans who appreciate the finer things in life… like afternoon naps and quiet companionship. If you’re an older couple, a retired homebody, or just someone searching for a loving best friend who wants to spend her golden years snuggled up beside you, Ann Marie might genuinely be your perfect match. She’s sweet, easygoing, hilarious in her own little ways, and full of the kind of love that makes a house feel softer and warmer the second she waddles into it. And yes… she still does the happy wiggle-butt thing when treats come out. Some things never change. Ready to welcome a new furry friend into your life?

Cody Ody Wiggle Boy has never met a stranger, and he's got the cutest little wiggle to prove it! This sweet, social boy approaches everyone like they're already his best friend. He's affectionate, playful, and has a way of winning people over almost immediately. Whether he's greeting someone new or spending time with his favorite people, Cody brings so much happiness to the moment. It's hard not to smile when you see that happy little wiggle coming your way! Cody is currently living in a foster home and has shown us what a wonderful companion he can be. He's dog friendly, cat friendly, and kid friendly, making him a promising addition to many different types of families. He enjoys having friends around and would love a home where he can be included in everyday activities. He's still growing into his body and filling out after arriving in our program needing some extra nutrition. He's already started making progress, and we're excited to see him continue growing into the handsome boy he's becoming. One of the things that really impressed our assessment team was Cody's manners. For such a young, playful dog, he has wonderful impulse control! When it's time to eat, you won't find him jumping around trying to get to his bowl. Instead, Cody automatically sits and patiently waits for his food to be served. Nobody has to make a big production out of it. He's already figured out that good things come to those who wait, and our team feels these habits give him a great foundation for continued training. Of course, Cody still loves being a playful pup! He enjoys spending time with other dogs and would be thrilled to have opportunities to run, play, and enjoy the outdoors. A home with a yard would be wonderful, but a family who can provide regular outings and safe opportunities to play with canine friends could be just as lovely. What matters most is having people who enjoy spending time with him and giving him opportunities to have fun. Cody has such a nice balance of qualities. He's friendly with people and other animals, enjoys playing, and has already demonstrated patience and good manners. He would love a family who will continue helping him learn, encourage his confidence, and make him part of their daily lives. With his affectionate personality and willingness to learn, he has so much potential to become an incredible lifelong companion. Cody Ody Wiggle Boy deserves a home where he can grow up surrounded by love, enjoy the company of friends, and never run out of reasons to wag that happy little body. He's already made quite an impression on everyone who has met him, and something tells us his future family will fall for that adorable wiggle just as quickly.

Kenji Cowboy has that sweet, slightly bashful charm that makes you want to earn your way into his heart and inner circle. He is gentle, handsome, and a little unsure when something is brand new, but give him a moment to take it all in and a treat for good measure, and you will quickly see what a lovely young dog he is. Kenji is still figuring out the world, and he approaches it thoughtfully, with soft manners, a curious heart, and an increasingly brave little cowboy spirit. Go watch Kenji Cowboy | The Soft-Spoken Sheriff on YouTube and see this handsome young cowboy! https://youtu.be/DaxrLP8rOvU?si=wHaqU5OLZg_hUok1 Kenji is estimated to be around eleven months old, and we believe he may be a Boxer/Pittie mix, but with animal rescue, breeds are always a mystery and never an exact science! He is currently fostered in a loving home with other dogs and has been getting plenty of opportunities to experience life beyond the house too. His foster regularly brings him along for patio lunches and dinners in the city, and Kenji handles those outings with a wonderfully calm demeanor for such a young dog. He is not trying to work the room or introduce himself to every person who passes. He is much more content hanging with his person, watching the world go by, and quietly taking everything in. He has good basic leash skills and is treat motivated and eager to learn, giving his future family a really nice foundation to continue building on. Kenji is dog friendly and wonderfully polite when meeting new dogs. He can be shy at first and prefers a little time to decide that his new acquaintance is, in fact, friend material. Once he warms up, he is a sweet and gentle playmate. He is not the type to barrel into an introduction demanding immediate friendship, and his softer approach makes him especially endearing. One thing that can convince this reserved cowboy to cut loose? The water hose. Kenji loves playing in the water, and it is an adorable glimpse of the silly young dog underneath that initially cautious exterior. He is also a great car companion once aboard. Kenji has not quite cracked the complicated engineering problem of getting himself into the car yet, so he currently appreciates a little boost. Once inside, however, he settles in and rides peacefully and happily. Kenji was polite when introduced to our house cat, although he was clearly unsure what exactly he was supposed to make of this strange little creature. Because he does not currently live with cats, we would recommend some initial boundaries, thoughtful introductions, and supervision if his future home includes a feline friend while everyone gets comfortable with one another. At nine months old, Kenji still has plenty to learn, but there is something really special about the foundation already there. He is gentle, affectionate, observant, dog friendly, easy to take out into the world, and very willing to learn when treats are part of the negotiation. He may need a little encouragement for some of life's firsts, but every new experience is another chance for this sweet cowboy to discover that he can do it.

Picture this: It's a beautiful morning, the birds are singing, the sun is shining, and somewhere in the house, a squeaky toy lets out its first squeak of the day. And then another. And another. Before you know it, a little comedian is bouncing through the room, proudly showing off her favorite toy like she's just discovered the greatest invention of all time. That, my friends, is life with Lola! Every day is a new opportunity for silliness, and Lola has made it her personal mission to keep everyone entertained. Watch Lola in action on YouTube and see this little comedian for yourself! Lola met my children ages five and eight, and they thought she was fabulous because she has fun with lots of interaction and play. They love dogs to interact with them. She sat for treats and took them gently. They thought she would make an awesome family dog! See Lola's love for play and kids: https://youtu.be/ODvrnWSSKls Lola is estimated to be around a year old, with an adorable face that looks like a little boxer, a pug-like curly tail, and an expression that makes you wonder what hilarious idea she's cooking up next. We can't promise her breed mix, but we can promise she's one unforgettable little character. She may be a pug or boxer mix. She's got personality for days, a heart full of love, and just enough mischief to make everyday life interesting. If Lola could fill out a wish list, squeaky toys would take up approximately 90% of the page. She LOVES them! The louder the squeak, the better. Toss one across the yard and watch her spring into action, bouncing after it with the enthusiasm of a dog who's just won the lottery. She's also a big fan of fetch, although sometimes the excitement of catching her prize makes her forget that returning it is part of the game. Who can blame her? She's busy celebrating! But Lola's talents go far beyond being a one-dog comedy show. She's an affectionate, social girl who genuinely loves people and brings a happy, playful energy wherever she goes. She's confident, resilient, and always ready to see what the day has in store. Whether it's exploring a new trail, learning something exciting, or simply spending time with her favorite humans, Lola approaches life with a contagious enthusiasm. And if there's one thing Lola loves almost as much as her squeaky toys, it's having a doggy best friend! She's happiest with playful dogs who appreciate a good game of chase, a little wrestling, and the occasional zoomie session. Her ideal canine companion would be a sturdy, tolerant dog over 25 pounds who enjoys physical play and knows when it's time for a break. Lola would absolutely love a home where she has a fun-loving playmate to share her adventures with. Lola dreams of a home with room to stretch those little legs, plenty of toys to squeak, and people who appreciate her larger-than-life personality. A house with a yard would be wonderful for this energetic girl, as apartment living isn't quite her style. She's also looking for a cat-free home where she can enjoy being her wonderfully goofy self. Because Lola is still young, she's learning that life doesn't always have to be one big party. Sometimes the squeaky toys need to rest, too! She'll thrive with a family that enjoys training, enrichment activities, and helping an enthusiastic young dog learn how to balance playtime with relaxation. She's responsive to guidance, eager to participate, and has so much potential with someone excited to help her grow. What makes Lola so special isn't just her silly antics or her adorable little face. It's the way she embraces life with her whole heart. She's the kind of dog who turns an ordinary Tuesday into a memorable adventure, who can make you laugh without even trying, and who reminds you that sometimes the simplest things, like a squeaky toy and a sunny afternoon, are the very best things in life. Lola Loop de Loop is ready to bring her toys, her wiggles, her wonderfully ridiculous personality, and her big loving heart into a home of her very own. All she needs now is someone who thinks life could use a little more laughter, a little more adventure, and a whole lot more squeaking. Ready to adopt Lola Loop de Loop?

We take the time to ensure each adoption is a good fit through our thoughtful matchmaking process. At our two-acre Texas property, we assess every animal with trainers on staff, provide behavior guidance as needed, and create individualized plans to help prepare dogs for their future families. These plans may include crate training, potty training, leash walking, socialization, and other important life skills. Our fosters can attend group training and socialization playgroups, helping our dogs become confident, well-rounded, and adoption-ready. Our on-site trainers are dedicated to each dog's growth, and we love watching their progress! We go above and beyond to ensure every animal receives exceptional care. Veterinarians consistently praise our medical standards. From routine care to advanced treatments, each dog receives personalized attention. Adoption fees help cover a portion of these expenses, but without government funding, we rely on fundraising to bridge the gap.
