Story

Teddie is a sweet and playful toy Cavapoo puppy with a beautiful red ish/brown coat and white markings. He is hypoallergenic with an F1B coat and currently around 7 pounds. He loves being around people, playing with his toys, and curling up for cuddles once he’s tired. He has a loving personality and brings a lot of happiness and energy to the home. Because he is still a young puppy, Teddie would do best in a home where someone has the time and commitment to continue giving him attention, training, and daily interaction. Cavapoos love mental stimulation, he knows commands such as sit, paw, high five, lay down, roll, spin

Story

Ever seen a scruffy guy transform when someone finally shows him kindness? Hi, I’m Fred! I used to wander the streets of Chicago all alone—just me against the world. When they found me, I was a tangled, matted mess. Nobody had taken care of me in who knows how long, and honestly, I’d learned that the world wasn’t always a safe place. But I’m working on that now. Every day, I’m learning that not all humans will let me down. It’s a process, you know? I’m building trust one gentle interaction at a time. What helps? Walks! I absolutely love going on walks—they make me feel free and happy. And once I know you’re one of the good ones, I turn into a total snuggle bug. There’s nothing better than curling up close to my person after I’ve learned they’re safe. I also love playing with my stuffies. They’re my treasures, and watching me toss them around, you’d never guess I spent so long just trying to survive. Here’s the thing though—I’d really prefer to be the only pet in the house. After everything I’ve been through, I need a home where I can have all the attention and patience to myself while I continue working on trusting this new life of mine. If you’re willing to give a guy like me a chance and help me finish my journey from scared stray to beloved companion, I promise I’ll be worth the wait.

Story

Are You Ready to Be the Hero in My Happily Ever After? Hi, I'm Tundra, and I need to be honest with you right from the start—I just celebrated my first birthday here at CARE. That means I've spent my entire life in this shelter, waiting for someone to choose me. My siblings Glacier and Yukon? They found their forever homes months ago. And I'm still here, watching, waiting, hoping that my person is out there somewhere. We came from Bastrop, Texas as tiny puppies in pretty rough shape—Demodex mange, scared, not doing well at all. But CARE brought us back to health, and now I'm this confident, energetic, incredibly smart young husky who's ready to finally know what "home" feels like. Here's What I Need You to Know About Me: I'm a lot of dog in the best way possible. I'm smart—like, really smart—which means I need mental stimulation and a person who understands huskies. I've got energy for days, a playful spirit, and a personality that lights up every room. I need someone who's home a lot because I've waited long enough, and I don't want to spend my days alone anymore. I want to be WITH my person, doing life together. My Ideal Person: Understands the husky breed and can keep up with my energy Can channel my intelligence into positive activities and training Will take me on adventures and give me jobs to do Provides structure, consistency, and patience Is home enough to spend quality time with me What I'll Give You in Return: Everything. I will love you with my whole heart. I LOVE playing with other dogs, I'm absolutely obsessed with water (any puddle, pool, or sprinkler is my happy place), and I'm currently in training classes learning my manners. You're getting my loyalty, my devotion, my goofy personality, and a companion who will make every single day an adventure. I'm not going to pretend I'm easy—I'm a husky who's grown up in a shelter, and that comes with its challenges. But I'm also resilient, loving, and so ready to prove that I'm worth the commitment. So here's my question for you: Are you my person? Are you home enough? Do you understand huskies? Are you ready to give a girl who just turned one the life she deserves? Because I'm ready. I've been ready my whole life. I just need you to show up. —Tundra
