Story
Meet Cashew! Cashew is a 1 year old, 39 lb Boxer mix. He's got the biggest grin, ears up, tongue out, and he is always ready to make friends with anyone who walks by. He was dumped at a park and brought to the shelter. He's put some weight on since, filled out, and showed his goofball personality to his foster right away. Cashew will do anything for a treat, especially a pup cup!! He has greeted crowds of people, including kids, at a few adoption events with a wagging tail and a wiggly body. He is extremely confident and loves his people. His favorite part of the day is going on walks, heading to the park with his foster and playing fetch and tug. Cashew is super smart!! He knows his commands already. He has had a few sessions with a trainer to work on slowing down and self-regulating as well as structured play. He is making amazing progress. Cashew recently recovered from tibial repair surgery on an old leg injury and is now cleared for running, jumping, and normal play. He'd do best with a family ready to keep that training going and would love another dog to play with. A good day for Cashew is a walk, some training, some play, and a long nap after. House trained, crate trained, food motivated, and SO much personality packed into one goofy dog. Cashew is located in Houston, but available to adopt through transport to the Northeast, Pacific Northwest & Midwest for an additional $250.

Story
Meet Suki! One look into those big, soulful eyes and a few happy tail wags from her shelter kennel, and we were completely smitten. When we first met Suki, she was happy to come up to us, but the moment we clipped on a leash, she froze. So, like the princess she is, we carried her over to our dog temperament testing area. And honestly? She made herself right at home! To no surprise, Suki was wonderful with every dog she met. She was ready to play, make friends, and show off her fun personality. In fact, her shelter name was *Rockstar* because she was the rockstar of her playgroup—and we can absolutely see why! Suki is around a year old, possibly even younger, and still has all that adorable puppy energy. She is incredibly sweet, affectionate, and believes that hugs are one of life’s greatest gifts. If you’re looking for a dog who will shower you with love, Suki is your girl. She absolutely adores other dogs and would love a playful canine companion to romp around with. Whether she’s making new friends or snuggling up for attention, Suki’s joyful spirit shines through in everything she does. Now all this sweet girl needs is a foster or forever family to give her the love she deserves. Could that be you? Suki is looking for a foster or adopter! Apply at www.scoutshonor.org and help this little Rockstar find her happily ever after. November 11, 2026, 7:51 pm

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Hi there friend, my name is Jaxon! Are you ready to have a paw-sitively amazing life? Because I am fur-real looking for a couch to call my own! Honestly, I'm not sure who I love more: other people, or other doggies, but I love meeting new friends, whether they are two-legged or four-legged. I really just cannot wait to meet YOU! I really love going to the park and getting to play and run with the other pups, but I'm also just as happy to lounge around on the couch with you. I really just want my family around so we can all love each other. I'm still learning what kind of toys I like, but I will be sure to get back on here and update you. I am really a lover-boy at heart. I am a world champion at wiggling my whole body with excitement. I'll show you the best of my wiggling abilities every single time you walk through the door and say hello to me again! I also show off my wiggling to new friends; did I mention I love meeting new people?  I would really love to be in a home with another dog. I really feel safe and comforted in the presence of a good friend, and possibly future sibling! I also love kids too, so if you have little ones in the family, I am very patient and promise I would be a fantastic brother to them. I have not spent too much time around kitty cats, but I don't have much of a prey drive. I'll let you know soon if I think I'd get along with your kitties. I am fully house-trained and crate-trained - my crate is my safe and cozy space and I love to go in there to relax. I do need some guidance when walking on a leash, but I don't pull whatsoever!!  Thanks for reading about me so far, and I promise I will be back on here soon with more info for you! I hope I get to meet you and have a chance to show you some of my world class wiggles. If you have any questions so far, please reach out and ask to get in touch with my paw-sitively amazing foster, Riley.  Fur-real though, you're paw-some for taking the time to learn about me! I'm staying paw-sitive and hoping we can be friends fur-ever! HAVE A BOXER-RIFIC DAY!   MORE DETAILS COMING SOON!

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Hi! I'm Samu, I’m a complete gentleman with soulful eyes and a heart way bigger than my wrinkly forehead. I'm looking for my forever family, and I promise I'm worth it. My résumé:     •     Potty trained (nailed it)     •    Crate trained (I’m sometimes reluctant, someone has to protect the human beds)     •    Great eater. I'll finish my bowl, then politely ask what's on your plate     •    Toy enthusiast. Squeaky, fluffy, ropey, I love them all     •    Expert snuggler, especially on beds. Yes, I know which pillow is yours.   My social life: My foster brother Jax and I are tug-of-war besties, and we could play all day. I'd probably be happiest in a home with another playful pup to wrestle with. I also met some neighbor kids and was a total gentleman!   Still working on: Leash walking. The world is just SO exciting, and I'm learning that we don't have to sniff all of it at once. A patient human and some practice will help me get there. If you want a goofy, loving sidekick who will make you laugh, follow you everywhere, and keep your couch warm, I'm your guy.   Ask about adopting Samu today!  Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.Transport Fee: Our basic transport fee is $300 for boxers traveling outside of Texas to their new homes in predetermined destinations(East Coast) using a trusted transport company.

Story
Meet Honey! Honey is a 9-10 year old Pittie mix who’s all about the quiet, cozy life. At around 60 lbs, she’s got the perfect size to cuddle up next to you on the couch or nap the day away. Despite her past, she’s one of the sweetest and most tolerant dogs you’ll ever meet—especially once she trusts you.Honey gets along with all other dogs, big or small, though she’s more of a `chill companion` than an active player. Puppies can be a bit much for her (she’s not a fan of face-to-face puppy energy!), but she’s great with adults and older dogs. She’s not at all aggressive, and will happily move away from food or toys if another dog or person approaches—no guarding here! This lady is house trained, does well in her crate, and is very calm around kids (ages 7-17). While she’s gentle and patient with them, Honey would probably do best in a home with older children who are a little more mindful of her need for a calm environment. Loud, fast movements or sudden noises do startle her, and she might retreat to another room, but that’s just her way of saying, “I need a little space.” Honey’s energy level is on the lower side, so she’s the perfect companion for someone looking for a quieter, more relaxed dog. She’s not a fan of loud or busy environments, but with some patience and love, she’s really come a long way. Honey is a little more nervous around men but has made real progress, even initiating contact with her foster dad and older foster brother. Honey is looking for a family who understands her need for patience and kindness. With a stable, loving dog by her side to give her emotional support, she’ll continue to blossom and show her true, affectionate nature. If you’ve got a calm, patient household and a soft spot for a sweet soul who’s been through a lot, Honey might be the perfect addition to your family. Could Honey be your loyal, gentle companion? Come meet her today! Honey is in a loving foster home in the Houston, TX area. Adoption application: https://www.this-is-houston.org/adopt/adopt-application
