Fiona is a really smart dog and learns really quickly but don’t have the time to train her or give her enough attention. She is really lovely with my kids but hasn’t been around other people in a while so I’m not sure how will she do.

Story
Hello there,We recently took in Luka on a temporary basis. His previous family was unfortunately losing their home and needed to rehome him quickly. We truly wanted to help and hoped we could keep him, but it’s becoming clear that we’re not able to give him the time and attention he deserves.With our work schedules being 8+ hours a day, we’re not able to properly walk him, play with him, or give him the active life he needs. He is a sweet dog and deserves a home where he can get the love, time, and care he needs.We are hoping to find him a loving home as soon as possible. If you or someone you know might be interested, please let me know, we would be so grateful.

Story
Hi. We've lived in the Hill Country for the past 8 years, and every year, abandoned dogs find their way to our home—wounded, scared, and exposed to predators like coyotes, hawks, and wild cats. From the beginning, we’ve opened our hearts and protected many. This November, 5 more arrived. We’ve done our best, but we can’t keep them all—we’ve already adopted two. This sweet girl came recently. The vet says she’s about 1 and half year old and was already SPAYED. She’s deeply affectionate, loyal, and simply wants love and safety. If something in your heart feels ready, this is a beautiful chance to give her the home she deserves.. We can meet halfway if needed. Thank you for helping us give this loving soul a second chance! ❤️

Shadow

Doberman Pinscher

Male, Young
Manor, TX
Size
(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)
Details
Not good with kids, Not good with dogs, Not good with cats, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Shadow is a pure bread Doberman with lots of love to give. He's a year old and loves playing fetch and running wild. A large backyard or an home with lots of running space is highly needed. A well experienced Doberman owner is highly doubt as he still needs lots of discipline and training. Shadow is crate trained and good at signalling he needs to go out, as well as coming back in. He hates the rain and water in general. Important note is that Shadow will need to be either around dogs his size as he does not get along with smaller ones. As well as a home with no children or HIGHLY supervised around as he is not gentle around them. Again, why he needs an experienced Doberman owner or has great knowledge or owning one. Overall, Shadow can be a very sweet and an emotional support boy.
