Story
Meet Chowder! Chowder is a 3.5-year-old Chow Chow looking for a home that understands the breed. He can be a little reserved when meeting new people and likes to take his time getting to know you. But once he decides you`re one of his people, you`ll get to see his fun side! Chowder has a signature “Chow bounce” and gets pretty excited when his favorite people come home. Chowder is a laid-back guy who enjoys a quieter home. He`s happy relaxing near his people, hanging out in the yard, or stretching out on the couch or bed. He also likes his kennel and uses it as his own safe space. He`s kennel trained, knows his basic commands, and is very food motivated. He enjoys tennis balls and cooling off in a kiddie pool on a warm day. Chowder loves other dogs and would do well with a dog around his own size and energy level. He has never lived with cats, so we`re looking for a cat-free home. He`s also never been around children, so we think an adult home would be best. He`ll need to stay on leash when outside of a securely fenced yard. Chowder enjoys exploring, but he isn`t a dog you can trust off leash. We`re looking for someone with Chow Chow experience, or someone who understands and appreciates their independent personality. If you think Chowder might be your kind of dog, come meet him! *Adult Home Only**No small dogs/ cats/ small animals adoption fee $350 + $30 microchip fee + tax

Story
Frida is a goofy, wrinkly-faced Bulldog/Boxer mix who is discovering that life can be pretty darn fun! She's settling into foster care beautifully, and the more comfortable she gets, the more her playful and cuddly personality comes shining through. When Frida comes out of her kennel, she's ready to party! Her first order of business is usually grabbing a toy, shaking it with great enthusiasm, and racing around like she just won the lottery. She particularly enjoys her stuffed mammoth, which she flails around with impressive determination. She knows how to play fetch, too—she's just still deciding whether outdoor fetch is worth learning. Once she's gotten the zoomies out, Frida is happy to switch gears and become a couch potato. She loves being invited up for cuddles and will happily sit between your legs when you call her over. Her foster has discovered a hilarious routine: Frida will leave the couch when she's finished getting pets, settle onto her bed, and then stare intensely at her person until she's invited back. Five minutes later, she's apparently forgotten that she was the one who left and is ready for another cuddle session. 😂 Frida has an adorable little excited "huff" or "harumph" when she's feeling playful, waiting for dinner, or hoping it's time to go outside. Combined with her irresistible wrinkles and wiggly butt, she has no shortage of ways to make her foster family smile. She's enthusiastic about meeting new people and has shown playful, excited interest in other dogs. She can be a little unsure in unusual situations—meeting people outside in the dark was understandably suspicious—but once she could see what was happening, her wiggly personality returned. She's had some short, on-leash interactions with her foster's resident dog and has been playful and excited, although introductions are currently being kept brief. Frida is fantastic in her crate and sleeps peacefully there overnight. She can also stay crated during the workday without a problem. She's fully potty trained and has gone overnight and through a 9-hour workday without an accident. She's learning her basic commands and appears to know sit and shake with hand signals. She's excited when the leash comes out and hasn't shown any leash reactivity, although she's still working on remembering that walks aren't a sled-dog competition. And one important note: Frida apparently has very strong interior decorating opinions. A blanket in her kennel lasted approximately long enough for her to discover it before she completely destroyed it. She's perfectly happy with her bare kennel, so perhaps minimalist décor is her preferred style. Frida is affectionate, playful, goofy, and full of personality. She's got the wrinkles, the wiggles, the toys, and the absolutely adorable harumphs—and she's ready to find a family who will appreciate every bit of her wonderfully silly self. ❤️🐶

Story
Midnight, a common name for a common black dog....but what about me?? AM I COMMON??? NOPE! I am the lion of dog breeds :) Nothing normal or common about me! Not my beautiful mane OR my beautiful chow chow personality! So I was found in a park, abandoned with my "friends" after my owner died :( LUCKILY i found a rescue who not only LOVES the breed, but also has helped me get healthy (think heartworms and bad skin) but also will find me exactly the right family! (HOPEFULLY in a colder climate!!) I am not a puppy and since I am a single dog home I really would do best without young children or unpredictable adults :) I am a magnificent breed but we are a little picky about our friends and need someone who KNOWS and LOVES my breed.. I am ready for you if you are ready for me.... put in the adoption application!! Local adoption fee is $300 (in TX) OUt of state adoption fee is $550 (includes transport to your area)

Story
*hair blowing in the wind (even though she's indoors)* *unexplained sparkles in the air* *faint heavenly music* Yes, she is me. Chloe. Now that you are blinded by my beauty, let me explain why I am the absolute best girl on the inside too and so deserving of your (and everyone's) undivided adoration. I'm loyal, smart as a whip, and FUN, just to name a few. Unfortunately, I didn't come from the most glamorous beginnings. I was an outdoor doggy with not much interaction from birth and my family also left me behind when they moved. Thus, I wasn't really brought up interacting with you humans or being touched/handled. I've had my quirks while adjusting to being a family dog and will definitely need someone patient and understanding with me. (If you get too touchy right away, I don't like that and will try to protect myself.) However, if you are slow and gain my trust I will HANG on your every move. I have adjusted very quickly in the past with proper introductions to people. Even still, I would probably do best in a home without young children. I'm a lady after all and need time to sniff you out before you get grabby. I am an active girl and love to feel the wind in my hair outdoors too. I run with the speed of light and have a prey drive to sniff out bugs, lizards and more. I also love to play tug of war and fetch with my foster mommy inside. I bounce, bounce, bounce all the time! I am great on leash so walks and hikes would be great for me. Getting my energy out will help me focus on training too. I am very smart and learn quickly, but tend to lose interest if I'm still chock full of go, go, go!! With all of this perfection, all of your pet needs should be fulfilled, right? RIGHT? I hope so because I would do great as an only pet in the home. I have been able to co-exist with dogs at the rescue but I am a bit of a diva in my foster home. I have a domineering personality sometimes and will even mark like a male when I come across another dog's scent in my house. How dare they??? Existing? HERE? (She is otherwise house trained.) Considering that you and I know each other a little better now, you may pet me. Yes, I am very soft, I know. Please keep in mind that I am a Chow/shepherd mix and have hair that will require brushing, maybe even the occasional spa treatment, Swedish massage, 24k gold facials...yeahhhhhhhhhh.... Sorry! I forgot you were here. In all seriousness, once I trust you, I will allow you to brush me out without much fuss. It doesn't need to be daily but I am a rough and tumble kinda gal and can use help keeping my locks flowing and free. I also shed so if I seem to be losing my girlish figure, it's probably just extra hair that needs to be brushed off. I hope you have a strong vacuum. ;) I could go on for days about myself, but I'll stop here. Don't wanna overwhelm you. If you think you are up for the challenge of a total spitfire like me, please feel free to send in an application and foster mommy can tell you more about all of the grandeur that is...CHLOE. Local adoption fee is $300 (in TX)
