Story
Clark is a 2 year old Husky mixed with Australian cattle dog and German shepherd. Clark has a very big personality. He makes us laugh all the time by how goofy he is. In true husky fashion, he is smart but also stubborn and will let you know exactly how he feels. He LOVES people and other dogs. He will want to be by your side all the time. He has separation anxiety so he gets crated when we leave the house. He complains but will eventually settle. Clark has been to obedience training but because he is so stubborn he has struggled with it. He needs someone with patience who is willing to put in the time and work so that he can be the best boy. He would thrive in a single person household or a family where there are no kids. He’s very playful with kids but is food aggressive and resource guards his food bowl. He is high energy and needs lots of attention and exercise. We really want the best for him and would much rather him go straight to a loving home.

Story
Meet Eve !!! Eve is a beautiful 7-month-old Dachshund/German Pointer mix with a heart just as lovely as her soulful eyes. Though she was sadly abandoned at a young age, Eve has shown incredible resilience and is now happily settled with her foster family. She's learning that the world can be kind again - and she's ready to find a forever family to call her own. Eve is: 1. Wonderful with other dogs 2. Affectionate and eager to bond 3. Young, playful, and full of potential! 4. Spayed, vaccinated, dewormed, heartworm negative and and micro-chipped. With her pointer curiosity and dachshund charm, Eve would thrive in a loving home where she can enjoy outdoor time in a secure garden and daily long walks to explore the world. She's at that perfect age - still a puppy at heart but old enough to start showing her loyal, devoted nature. All she needs now is a family who will promise her what she deserves: stability, kindness, and love forever. Could Eve be the missing piece in your home? Please contact Hannah 512-466-4129 for additional information. A $400 donation fee applies for medical and food expenses.

Story
Hi there… Ramona here. 🐾 I’m a lovely nearly 9-year-old Pitbull lady who is ready to find my very own forever home. I’m past the silly puppy stage and have settled nicely into being a calm, easygoing companion. I’m a very people-friendly girl and truly enjoy spending time with my humans. If you like a dog who is happy just being near you, going for a walk together, or relaxing at home, we will get along wonderfully. I’m also quite a practical girl — I know how to use the doggie door, so I can take care of my business like a proper lady. I enjoy going for regular walks, taking in all the interesting smells and stretching my legs. When it comes to other dogs, I get along with most of them, especially those who appreciate a peaceful companion like me. What I’m really hoping for is a calm, loving home where I can feel safe, loved, and part of the family. A soft place to rest, some nice walks, and kind humans to share life with would make me a very happy girl. If you’re looking for a loyal, sweet, and relaxed best friend, I think we should meet. Love, Ramona 🐶💛 Please contact adoptions@ancasark.com or contact 512-466-4129. A donation of $75 is required for medical and food expenses.
