Story
This is Gunner, my neighbor’s dog, who are unable to care for him anymore. He’s around 8-10 years old and very, very sweet with adult humans. He was a street dog before he was found by the neighbor about 2 years ago. For an older dog, he has great energy and would do well if someone had a yard where he could run around. Ideally, he needs someone who can provide training and love to him. He doesn’t know how to be a family dog because he never got the chance. He’s submissive to me and also very loving towards me. He walks well with a leash after building trust. Doesn’t play with toys - I don’t think he knows how to. Please, is there an Angel out there who can take him in? Your rehoming fee will be transferred to the vet of your choice after the transaction is complete. I’m willing to help with meet and greets as well.

Story
Ive had whiskey since he was a little puppy. There was a lady who had multiple puppies that she couldn't take care of & I decided to take one. He’s About to turn 4 yrs old & i hate to see him go but due to my work schedule im hardly ever home & haven't been consistent with keeping up w him. I used to do everything with him but it’s impossible to do anything with my job. I want someone experienced with adopting because he needs a little more training. He’s a real good dog but I believe he can be a great dog & learn some more training. He is a little nervous & anxious when it comes to taking him to shower with other people & i usually do it myself. Im not too sure how he is with dogs but i’ve always kept him away due to the fact that dogs can sometimes be unpredictable.

Story
Paris is a sweet, playful dog. He is very energetic and loves nothing more than a good game of fetch. He is quite smart, which I believe will translate well to "teachable" in the right hands. He is already neutered and house/crate trained and knows a couple basic commands. He is in good health and up to date on all shots/medications. He has been good with kiddos and other dogs. We have had Paris since he was less than a year old, and he has been with us for about a year and a half. We have really struggled with the decision to let him go, but unfortunately, we just don't have the time to give him the attention and stimulation he deserves. We feel like there is a better match for him out there, and we are confident that he is going to make a great dog for the right family! If approved, we are willing to pass along all of his belongings (leash, harness, crate, bed, bowls, and most importantly his favorite fetch ball ❤️). Please reach out if you have questions.

Story
I recently purchased a home and the previous owners left their sweet dog behind. The family had children, but I am think the kids were older. I have been calling him Buddy. He is a beautiful German Shepherd and weighs about 70 pounds. He is so sweet and lets anyone come up to the house. He is always excited when I come home. He is quite interested in affection. Just meeting him once people will fall in love. He is very smart and is so fast.

Story
Bella is house and leash trained. She knows a few basic commands and likes small dogs and cats. She enjoys car rides, walks, rolling in the dirt, and snacks. She will need a family that will give her some additional training, lots of attention, and must have a solid, height appropriate fence if there is a yard. She is heartworm positive and has been receiving treatment. She will be retested for heartworms again in April. Bella is in foster, not located at the shelter. Please submit an application at bastropshelter.com for consideration if interested.
