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. September 28, 2026, 9:44 pm

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Hello! My name is Garth! I was saved from a shelter by the nice lady from Houston Boxer Rescue who said she would find me a great home! Can you believe someone didn't want this cute face? I think I'm pretty cute! I have lots of polka dots and a squishy pink face. I am still very much a puppy which means I have a lot to learn. I am still learning potty training and what I can and cannot chew on, but I hear Boxers are pretty smart so I think I will figure it out with some basic training and patience! Speaking of hearing...I am NOT deaf! I can hear just fine!    I enjoy laying in the green grass and wrestling with my brother! I like to lay down in the grass like a baby fawn deer and be still so nobody can find me. I am a little shyer than my brother, but I still like to run and play with everyone and be near the action! I get along great with the other dogs in my foster parent's home, they have a female Boxer and a small male dog. I am unsure about people in hats and will bark at them, but I am still learning all the sights of outside the shelter. I am a little smaller than my brother, but not by much! People can't hardly tell us apart, but my foster mom knows exactly which ones we are.   When I am done being cute, I like to lay on a big dog bed, or cuddle in your lap! I have been doing great sleeping in the kennel at night and during the day when my foster parents aren't home. My brother and I are sharing a big kennel! Please fill out an application if you think you could be my forever family!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
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Heartworm NegativeUpdated Bio: Our sweet Hewitt has found his way back to the Houston Boxer Rescue (HBR) program. He's a little older now, but at 6, he's still got plenty of wonderful wigglebutt years ahead. He has become a very popular dog at Houston Boxer Rescue (HBR). He attends our annual Wine Walk and schmoozes the crowd. He also attends the Houston World Series of Dog Shows and is a perfect gentleman! He loves people and gets along well with other dogs. He does not like storms or fireworks; I mean, really, who does? Please consider Hewitt to be your lifelong member.   Original Bio: Talk about a transformation. Yep, that was me-I was almost at the rainbow bridge at only 18 months old when a kind person picked me up, and I found myself getting food, medicine, and love. Hi y’all, my name is Hewitt.  Can you believe how handsome I am? I had almost forgotten, but yes, I clean up pretty nice.  Despite my previous struggles, my foster dad says that I love people, and cuddling is one of my favorite things. I love toys, playing with the resident pup, but sometimes I get a little too excited. Guess it’s just getting used to living the great life. I will let you know when I need to go outside, so just show me the door. I will even get into my crate without any trouble.  While I am recovering well from my skin issues, I still need a bath every three to four days, but I promise to be still and not to splish splash.   I love being outdoors, lying in the grass, and soaking up the sun. Do you have a backyard and space for me? I am looking for a nice family who is just excited to see our love story blossom.  Looking forward to meeting you soon.           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
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Hi! My name is Wayne! I landed in a shelter with my brother because I was unwanted. That's okay because the nice lady from Houston Boxer Rescue saved us and assured me that I would find a great home. I am handsome and full of polka dots! Who wouldn't want me? I am still very much a puppy which means I have a lot to learn. I am still learning potty training and what I can and cannot chew on, but I hear Boxers are pretty smart so I think I will figure it out with some basic training and patience! Oh, and guess what? I am NOT deaf! I can hear all the fun!    I really love laying and rolling around in the grass with my brother. I don't think the shelter had much grass for me to play on, but me and my brother like to wrestle in the grass! I am a little more outgoing than my brother, but I am still just as sweet and friendly. I get along great with my foster parent's big female Boxer and small male dog. I play nice and share my toys also. I have a fascination with the water hose and will try to stick my face in it! I am a bit of a food hog and will try to eat my brother's food, but I think it's because we have been in the shelter together. I should be fed separate from other animals just in case I decide to be guarded over my food bowl.   When I'm done playing and being cute all day, I like to snuggle with my foster parents in their lap. I stay in a kennel at night with my brother and when they are not home and so far, I am doing great!

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Well hello world! My name is Ursula. Unlike the villain in The Little Mermaid, I am super duper sweet and am looking for a home to call my own. Since my time in foster care started, I have shown how playful and sweet I truly am and now I am ready to shine like a diamond! I do not mind my crate as I have learned that is a safe space for me. I am potty trained too! I am still not even two years old, so I feel like I have more time to learn and grow and be your best friend for a very long time! I was kept outside before I arrived here so I do have some quirks that you might need to be aware of. I have been seeing these things called cats and I am not a fan of them. As a matter of fact, I am not a fan of other dogs just to be honest with you. However, if you are looking for a loyal, playful, sweet loving companion, I am your gal! I just know the right home is out there for me. Please come and meet me soon so I can show you how special I am! We transport our dogs up North and out of Texas.

Story
Meet Honey! Honey is a 7-8 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
