Story
Age: 8 He is Fixed Located: Round Rock, TX Up to date on all vaccines. Good in house Low Energy Vet visited went great today 6/8/2026 Great Car rider 🚘 Good with dogs Great with kids of all ages Unknown with cats You will receive everything I purchased for Bo including his dog bed and some other items. Bo was adopted from Wilco Animal Shelter. I adopted him after his owner who loved and cherished him passed away unexpectedly. He was in the shelter for months before I fostered him. Bo is an absolute gentle giant great with kids very patient and loving. He would make a great emotional support companion. He loves the water and would be great for a family or elderly couple. He is not high energy and usually likes to sleep, cuddle and go on slow walks. He is very obedient and does not jump on furniture (unless explicitly instructed) he loves checking on his people. It pains me to even try to Rehome him because of how awesome he is. My apartment lease is now making it hard.

Story
This is Diamond, she is an 8 year old female Miniature Golden Retriever Labrador mix. My husband and I are moving so we cannot afford to take her with us. She is spayed, caught up on her rabies shot, and has a metal plate in her leg from a car accident when she was young. Regardless of this, she is fully healed and has full mobility. She is an older gal so she may have potential medical conditions. Meaning we would need her to go to someone willing and financially able to care for her. Diamond’s birthday is Valentine’s Day which is very fitting given how loving and affectionate she is. She is a sweet girl who’s full of energy and loves attention, treats, and playing with the hose. Our top priority is making sure she finds a safe, stable, and loving home with people who will cherish her the way she deserves.
