Story
Good day my name is Twiggy. I am a beautiful red and white female husky with flowing hair. I am 5 years old and have so much love to give. I love to play in the yard with my friends. I don't like being by myself. I love people and all the hugs they can give. I get along great with other dogs. I am looking for my fur-ever home. Oh did I mention adventures are great!

Story
Meet Tex Just over SIX pounds of pure tail-wagging happiness packed into one tiny, adorable package! This little guy is a professional snuggler who loves nothing more than wrapping himself around your neck and soaking up all the love. If you’re looking for a shadow, Tex is your guy! He’ll happily follow you everywhere and make sure you never have to do anything alone. Tex is still a puppy, so he's working on his potty-training skills. He can be a little shy or skittish when meeting new people or when things move too quickly, but once he feels comfortable, his friendly, attention-loving personality shines! He's great with dogs of all sizes and does well with cats, too. Tex came into rescue with some skin issues, but he's on the road to recovery and feeling better every day. He's believed to be a Chug (Chihuahua/Pug mix), although he seems to have inherited more of the Chihuahua body style. He's expected to stay a pretty little guy! If you have room in your heart and a spot around your neck for a professional cuddle buddy, Tex is ready to wrap himself right around you! Local adoption fee is $350(in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $650 (includes transport to your area)

Huey is a one year old male corgi. He is neutered, house trained, and up to date on vaccines. He is a great dog, but unfortunately our schedules are too busy. We would love to find him a loving home.
