Story
Stella is a sweet, cuddly, and affectionate dog who loves being close to her people. She is fully house trained and does very well with dogs she gets to know inside the home, forming comfortable and positive relationships once she feels safe. Stella does struggle with dogs outside the house and can be reactive in those situations. Because of this, she would do best with an owner who has the time, patience, and commitment to continue her training and help her build confidence in outdoor settings. With structure, consistency, and positive reinforcement, she has the potential to keep improving. At home, Stella is loving, gentle, and enjoys relaxing and cuddling. She is looking for a calm, understanding home where she can feel secure and supported, ideally with someone who enjoys working with dogs and is willing to invest time in training and bonding.

Story
Glenn Dale is a sweet and loving big country boy. He likes nothing better than shaking your hand and getting some loving ear scratches. Those big amber eyes will steal your heart. He loves people and other dogs, especially if they are as easy-going as he is, and they want to play. This big lug is crate-trained and will happily spend the night on a soft bed inside his kennel. He is very devoted and will follow you like a shadow. He needs a home that doesn't have chickens or cats, he gets a little too excited around them.

APPLICATION LINK: https://shaynesrescue.com/adoption-application-pet-central-satx/ We must have an application to move forward. (Shayne's Rescue is an affiliate with PetCentralSATX). If there are problems with the website, please email me for help. Jack is a male Shepherd mix, about 5 yrs old. He weighs 45#. He is a good dog... no aggression but also no training. He has been getting some leash training of which he's doing very well. This guy needs to have a companion to take him everywhere, go on hikes, and maybe even swimming. He loves people and is great with other dogs. He does need daily exercise but I’m sure he will calm down after he knows he’s in a forever home and gets his love and exercise every day. He deserves a second chance…he needs someone who believes in him! Check our You Tube Video: https://youtu.be/zawD9-77Oxs This dog is CURRENTLY IN TEXAS and available for pre-adoption.
