Story
Stitch came with her three other littermates, from a family member who could no longer take care of them. She was 7 months old then, now she has been here long enough to celebrate her second birthday. She is good in public and crowded places, she is good with my kid sister and my other dog. She’s not good with cats, or other small animals for that matter. But on leash can be managed and is usually more aloof when supervised and controlled. Stitch is a sweet dog once she warms up, but at first will spend quite some time getting used to new people and trusting. Stitch would need an active family to keep her happy and out of trouble. She would love to be able to explore and go on hikes regularly. She doesn’t play much with toys, but would rather play a short game of chase. She would enjoy another dog to play with but she doesn’t need one to thrive, and can respect dogs who are not interested.

WE ARE A TX-BASED RESCUE. THIS DOG IS CURRENTLY LOCATED IN TX AND WILL BE TRANSPORTED UPON ADOPTION. Please fill out an adoption application at haydudeequine.org 🍪 Meet Nilla – Sweet as a Wafer, Twice as Fun! 🍪 If you’ve ever wished for a dog as sweet and comforting as your favorite cookie, look no further—Nilla’s got you covered! This 10-year-old Shepherd mix may be a “golden oldie,” but don’t let her age fool you. She’s still full of zest, zoomies, and plenty of love to share. At 45 lbs, Nilla is the perfect fun-size snack. She adores men, women, and other dogs, and her playful, gentle nature makes her a dream companion. She’s food-motivated (who isn’t when cookies are involved?) but never guards her goodies. Instead, she’s all about sharing her big heart and happily coming when called. ✨ Nilla’s recipe for the perfect home includes: — A comfy couch and a human who appreciates belly rubs and head scratches — Doggie friends to run and play with (she’s fantastic with canine buddies!) --- Would probably do fine with cats (she's pretty much ignores the outside cats) — Gentle, older kids who understand that even sweet cookies need a little care — Maybe a backyard where she can show off her zoomies before napping in the sun She’s housetrained, kennel trained, and not too interested in toys—her joy comes from people, play, and pets. With her easygoing nature and good manners, Nilla would make a pawfect first-time pet parent pup. She’s the comfort food of dogs: always reliable, always sweet, and guaranteed to brighten your day. If you’re craving a best friend who’s equal parts sugar, spice, and everything nice, Nilla is ready to be your forever snack pack companion. 🐾❤️ 👉 Apply today at haydudeequine.org and bring home this sweet wafer of a dog!

WE ARE A TX-BASED RESCUE. THIS DOG IS CURRENTLY LOCATED IN TX AND WILL BE TRANSPORTED UPON ADOPTION. Please fill out an adoption application at haydudeequine.org ✨ Meet Sugarplum — the shy little sweetheart ready to melt your heart ✨ Sugarplum is a 5-year-old, 14-pound bundle of quiet sweetness who came from a hoarding case and is now learning what real love, safety, and comfort feel like. True to her name, she’s equal parts soft, sweet, and impossible not to adore — she just needs a little time to trust that the world is finally on her side. At first meet, she’s gentle, cautious, and prefers observing from a safe spot… but give her some patience, kind words, and a peaceful environment, and you’ll watch her bloom into the affectionate little lovebug she was always meant to be. Once you’re “in” with Sugarplum, you’re in. She’ll nuzzle close, follow you with those big soft eyes, and show you a level of loyalty that’ll warm you from the inside out. She’s great with other dogs and would thrive in a home with a confident, friendly four-legged sibling to help show her the ropes. In fact, she’ll take cues from another dog faster than you can say “Who’s a good girl?” (Spoiler: it’s her.) Her perfect home? A calm, patient human who works from home or is retired — someone who has the time and heart to help this sweet girl continue to build confidence at her own gentle pace. Sugarplum may not burst through the door with wild zoomies or immediate kisses, but the love she gives once she trusts you? That’s the kind of sweetness you can’t buy in any candy store. If you’re looking for a quiet companion, a soft presence, a loyal shadow, and a tiny heartbeat ready to be cherished… 🍬 Sugarplum is ready to sweeten your life — one tender moment at a time. 👉 Apply at haydudeequine.org and bring this precious girl home.

WE ARE A TX-BASED RESCUE. THIS DOG IS CURRENTLY LOCATED IN TX AND WILL BE TRANSPORTED UPON ADOPTION. Please fill out an adoption application at haydudeequine.org 🎄✨ Meet Jingles — The Little Bell of Joy, Wiggles, and Wonder ✨🎄 At 5 years old and a festive 15 pounds, Jingles may be small, but this boy brings BIG cheer everywhere he goes. If happiness made a sound, it would be the tap-tap of his paws followed by nonstop tail jingles. He doesn’t just enter a room — he announces joy has arrived. Jingles is happy, bouncy, and delightfully goofy. He finds magic in water bowls, puddles, squeaky toys, and literally any moment that could possibly involve snacks (his favorite love language). Life is his playground, and he’s here to remind you not to take it too seriously. He’s house trained, crate-tolerant (though he’d prefer to be supervising all activities), and comes when called — especially if treats are involved. Snacks aren’t just motivation; they’re his muse. And that little missing piece on the side of his mouth? Just extra character. A built-in grin enhancer. A reminder that perfection is overrated and charm is everything. He eats, drinks, and smiles just fine — especially when the treat jar opens. 🐾 Jingles’ Greatest Hits: ✅ 5 years old — 15 lbs of pure joy and festive chaos ✅ Playful, social, and always in a good mood ✅ Great with other dogs ✅ Cats unknown, but likely fine with slow introductions ✅ House trained, crate tolerant, and great in the car ✅ Quiet, responsive, and sporting a recall that deserves applause ✅ Loves water, toys, and outdoor adventures ✅ Short legs, big heart, and a personality that jingles all the way Jingles may be pint-sized, but he’s ready to turn your life into a highlight reel of laughter, splashes, and cozy couch moments. If you’re looking for a dog who brings happiness, humor, and heart wherever he goes… ✨ Apply today at haydudeequine.org — and let Jingles jingle his way right into your home. 🐾💖
