Story
How is she still not adopted! Delilah is one of the sweetest and most loyal dogs here at the rescue. She’s been here way too long. She’s raised her last litter over 2 years ago and now she needs you to give her the love she’s patiently been waiting for. Pleae open your heart and home to her 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 Delilah — A Loving, Lively Girl Ready for Her Forever Adventure 🐾🌟 Delilah is a Shepherd/Cattledog mix (best guess), born 10/01/2021, weighing in at a healthy 55 lbs, and bursting with personality, affection, and zest for life. If you’re looking for a dog who will love you wholeheartedly and keep you smiling, Delilah might just be your girl. She is sweet, affectionate, and eager to please, soaking up attention like sunshine. Belly rubs? Yes please. Cuddles? Absolutely. A game of fetch or a splash in the water? Even better! Delilah thrives on interaction and loves being part of the action. Delilah does great with other dogs and enjoys their company, though she prefers to dine solo — a girl likes her personal space at mealtime, after all. No issues with people around her food or toys, just a polite request for her own bowl. She’s still polishing up her manners (sometimes those paws get a little excited!), but she’s learning quickly and wants to do right by her people. Because of her energy level and curiosity, Delilah would do best in a home without cats and with a secure, tall fence. She’s an explorer at heart and would love an active family who enjoys outdoor time, play sessions, and giving her the mental and physical stimulation she thrives on. 🐾 Delilah’s Highlights: ✅ Born 10/01/2021 ✅ 55 lbs of love and personality ✅ Sweet, affectionate, and people-oriented ✅ Great with other dogs ✅ Loves water, fetch, and belly rubs ✅ Active and playful ✅ Eats separately from other dogs ✅ Needs a secure yard Delilah is the kind of dog who will make you laugh, keep you moving, and remind you every day how special the bond between a dog and their person can be. With the right home, she’s going to absolutely shine. ✨ Apply today at haydudeequine.org and give Delilah the loving home she’s been waiting for. 🐾💛

Story
Please note that we are a foster based rescue in TX. All of our dogs reside in foster homes in TX. We transport them to new states once adopted. ALL ADOPTERS MUST BE 21+. Our app can be found at haydudeequine.org Hi there. I’m Daisy Mae. I’m a four-year-old Great Pyrenees girl, about 85 pounds of fluff, dignity, and selective listening. I’m super sweet and I genuinely love people. I’ll lean on you, follow you from room to room, and act like you’re the most important human who ever existed… until I decide the backyard needs patrolling or that squirrel needs a full security briefing. Then suddenly I have somewhere very important to be. I’m good with other dogs, though I can be a little bossy. I prefer things run my way. I’m a classic Great Pyrenees in all the best and worst ways: loyal, calm, affectionate, and majestic when I want to be… and independent, stubborn, and convinced I know better than you when I don’t feel like cooperating. I come with the full Pyr package. I was found with another female, a male dog, and a whole crowd of 18 puppies. It was a lot. I made it through, and now I’m ready for a quieter, more predictable life. I’m looking for a home that understands Great Pyrenees (or is at least willing to learn). Someone who can appreciate a big, loving guardian who also has strong opinions about how the world should work. If you’ve got patience, a sense of humor, and room for a fluffy supervisor named Daisy Mae, we might just get along. Ready when you are, Daisy Mae

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 Chula! At 9 years old and 13 pounds, Chula is proof that the best things in life come in small, perfectly seasoned packages. This sweet girl is looking for a quiet, loving home where she can enjoy the simple things in life — sunshine, interesting smells, and a person to call her own. Chula would be an especially wonderful companion for someone who is retired or looking for a calmer, easygoing best friend. She loves nothing more than finding a cozy sunny spot and basking in the warmth. But don't let her age fool you — Chula still has plenty of curiosity and personality! Give her a yard and a squirrel, and you've got entertainment! Chula enjoys chasing squirrels and loves taking her time investigating all the fascinating smells the world has to offer. She'd be happy to stroll around with her nose to the ground, taking in all the neighborhood news. Chula isn't looking for a hectic lifestyle or endless excitement. She's looking for a peaceful home, a soft place to nap in the sun, and a person who will appreciate her for the wonderful older girl she is. If you're ready to give a sweet senior girl the relaxed and loving retirement she deserves, Chula would love to meet you! Age: 9 years Weight: 13 lbs. Sex: Female Ideal home: Calm, quiet home — a retired person would be wonderful Other dogs: Gets along well with canine pals Favorite things: Sunbathing, squirrel chasing & investigating smells

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 Cheyenne! Howdy, y’all! I’m Cheyenne, and I’m looking for my very own forever family! 🤠❤️ I’m a 4-month-old Australian Shepherd x Cattle Dog mix, which means I come with a whole lot of brains, a whole lot of personality, and enough adventurous spirit to keep life interesting! I’m also sporting a pretty special marking on my forehead… a big ol’ Y! I guess the universe wanted to make sure everyone knew to ask, “Y wouldn’t you adopt me?” 😂 I’m a super sweet, outgoing girl who thinks the world is one big adventure just waiting to happen. New places? Let’s go! New people? Let’s be friends! Water? OH, HECK YES! 💦 If there’s a puddle, pond, creek, or any other opportunity to get my paws wet, you can bet I’ll be investigating it. I’m basically a tiny explorer with a built-in water attraction system. Now, let’s talk brains. With Australian Shepherd and Cattle Dog in my family tree, I’m a pretty smart cookie. I love learning and figuring things out, so I’ll need a family who can keep my clever little mind busy. Training, puzzle toys, adventures, games, and plenty of opportunities to learn new things will help me grow into the best girl I can be. Fair warning: smart puppies can be a little TOO good at coming up with their own entertainment. If you don’t give me a job, I might just invent one. And I can’t promise that my ideas will always align with your interior decorating preferences! 😉😂 I’ll grow into a medium-sized dog, making me a great adventure buddy for someone who wants a fun, active companion. I’d love a family who enjoys getting outside, exploring, teaching me new things, and including me in everyday life. I’m still a puppy, so I’ll need all the usual things: patience, consistency, training, and lots of love as I learn how to be a well-mannered member of the family. But underneath all that energy and intelligence is one very sweet girl who wants to love her people with her whole heart. I’ve got the looks, the brains, the adventurous spirit, and a forehead marking that makes me pretty hard to forget. All I need now is YOU! So, if you’re looking for a smart, sweet, water-loving sidekick who’s always ready to say “Y not?” to a new adventure, I might just be your girl! 🌵💦❤️ Love, Cheyenne 🤠🐾

He's neutered, fully vaccinated, and ready to trade shelter life for a couch, a yard, and a family to call his own.
