Story
I have had so many chances in my young life. Seriously...I was found with four siblings at about 2.5 weeks old, dumped in a box at the post office... we were so, so sick and close to death. My rescue mom really worked hard to get us healthy and LIVE. And we did! About 6 weeks later, we all got parvo..... and my rescuer was able to nurse all of us out of it! All my siblings have been adopted, and I am ready too! I am somewhat shy and will take time to settle into my new family. But I will adjust. I am best with another dog, calm and confident, because I will mirror that energy. As a gorgeous catahoula/whippet mix, I have plenty of energy and I love to play! Fetch and chase games are my favorite . I am adoptable in Texas, I need to meet my family and you need to meet me! Local adoption fee is $200 (in TX)

MEET FORREST Forrest holds a special place in our hearts! Crawling his paralyzed self to safety only for the public to treat him like he was a problem. He was never the problem!

He now has a wheel chair and can cruise all over the place! He is living the best life in his foster home and is SO ready to find a home to call his own where he will be loved and treated how a sweet, kind and happy pup like him should be treated!

Story
Reyna is a big, beautiful, boisterous girl with a heart full of adventure! Whether it’s going for a run, hitting the trails, or spending the day at the park, she’s always up for fun. Reyna is looking for a fun-loving, active family to match her energetic spirit and keep her life full of excitement. She does great with medium to large dogs and is wonderful with kids, but due to her strong prey drive, she’s not suited for homes with small animals or cats. If you're ready for a loyal companion who lives life to the fullest, Reyna is your girl! Local adoption fee is $200 (in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $450 (includes transport to your area)

Gracie Belle - Yes, having two names definitely makes me extra special! And believe me, I AM special!

I've got a genuine penchant for adventure and a passion for running that knows no bounds. As I've grown, I've blossomed into a loving and mature young dog. My youthful exuberance is now complemented by a deeper sense of loyalty and affection. I've learned the ropes of good behavior, and I'm ready to be the devoted companion you've been looking for.
