Story
Meet Mr. Johnny – Your Loyal Ranch Hand in Fur! 🐾🐄 Mr. Johnny is a 5-year-old ranch-raised sweetheart with a heart as big as the Texas sky. This handsome boy was trained to work cattle and takes his job seriously—herding them from pasture to pasture and keeping a watchful eye to make sure everyone is safe and well-fed. He’s the kind of dog who thrives outdoors, happiest when the sun’s on his back and the land stretches out around him. Johnny is incredibly friendly with people and gets along great with other dogs. He’s currently undergoing heartworm treatment using the gentle, slow-kill method and is no longer contagious. He’s still got plenty of life and love to give! Important Notes: Johnny is not a fan of cats (he’ll chase them!) and chickens are a no-go (he sees them as snacks 😬). But if you’ve got a ranch or country property and are looking for a loyal companion who knows his way around livestock, Mr. Johnny just might be your perfect partner. 📍 Currently located in Texas and ready to ride off to his next great adventure—hopefully with you.

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. I f 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! ❤️

Story
Meet Charlie— a standard Golden-doodle 🐾 I received Charlie as a gift and do not have breeder paperwork. He is just under a year old; his birthday is 12/12/2024. Charlie is a loving, energetic, and playful dog who enjoys attention and being active. He would do best with a family or individual who has time to keep him engaged and entertained. ✔ Potty trained ✔ Neutered ✔ Healthy and very sweet We are sadly rehoming him due to a major schedule change; my son recently joined a select soccer team and we are out of town most weekends, making it difficult to provide Charlie with the time he deserves. 📩 Please inquire only if you are seriously interested and ready to adopt. He deserves a stable, committed home.
