Story
Stumpy is tiny, scruffy, and completely irresistible. She looks like a little storybook puppy come to life, with her adorable scruffy coat and her small, delicate frame—but what really makes her unforgettable is her incredibly sweet and loving personality. Stumpy is the kind of pup who just wants to be close, always ready for cuddles, always soaking up affection like it’s her favorite thing in the world.
She may be small, but her heart is huge. Stumpy has a gentle, loving nature and a soft way about her that makes everyone instantly fall for her. She enjoys playtime, especially with toys or other gentle pups, but she’s not overly wild—she prefers sweet, happy moments and lots of snuggles. She would be perfectly content curling up in your lap, feeling safe and loved.

At just about 5 months old, Stumpy is still very much a baby, and she’s looking for a forever home where she can grow up surrounded by love and care. Her tiny size and scruffy cuteness make her extra special, but it’s her affectionate, tender personality that truly makes her shine. She’s going to be the most devoted little companion for someone who wants a soft, cuddly best friend.

https://g.co/kgs/UQ5Pyai We care deeply about creating lasting matches between dog and family for long term success, and take the time to ensure each adoption is a fit through our matchmaking process.
At our 2 acre Texas based property, we assess every animal with trainers on staff, we modify behavior as needed, and create individualized behavior plans to help prepare dogs for their future families including crate training, potty training, leash walking, etc. Our fosters are able to attend group training and socialization play groups helping them stay confident, well rounded, and adoption-ready. Our on-site trainers are dedicated to each dog’s growth and we enjoy seeing their progress!
We go above and beyond to ensure every animal receives exceptional care. Veterinarians consistently praise our medical standards. From routine care to advanced treatments, each dog receives personalized attention. Hard costs for a healthy dog range from $804-$920; heartworm-positive dogs or those needing specialized care can exceed $2,000+. Adoption fees help cover a portion of these expenses, but without government funding, we rely on fundraising to bridge the gap—ranging from $100–$1,000+ per dog.
Our adoption fees reflect the extensive care and resources that go into each animal we save. The adoption fee is a donation to the mission and goes far beyond getting a fully vetted pet.
