Story
Biscuit was found at a park almost a year ago by my teen daughter and left unclaimed. She did the best she could working extra summer jobs to get all the shots, microchipping, and neutering done. All his shots are up to date.Biscuit is super friendly and likes to play a lot. He knows basic commands such as sit and sometimes stay. He is crate and potty trained. He has quite a bit of energy as he is roughly one year and one month old.My 5-year-old who is special-needs and is scared of the dog now that he’s bigger. The dog is having to stay in his crate most of the time and that’s not a good environment for the dog or for my youngest child.Everything that’s listed in the photo comes with him to make his transition easier.

Story
Meet Bob!Bob is 1year old, neutered, and fully vetted Chihuahua mix. Bob is a lover at heart and the BEST snuggle-bug! He craves human connection and affection, although initially he is scared of people and needs time to trust and feel safe. Once he learns that he is safe, he wants to be your shadow! Nights will never be lonely again with Bob by your side!He’s dog friendly, but LOVES his human more. Bob is house trained with frequent visits outside and crate trained, but he’d rather stay with you.At a teeny 8lbs, Bob would make a great addition to an adults only household willing to let him decompress for a few days, as he gets to know you and your routine. As a timid Chihuahua, he’ll need a day or two to adjust and someone who is patient enough to allow Bob to come to them. After that he’s the best little companion.

Story
Meet Evander! Evander is a handsome 3 year old, 50-pound hunk who is ready for his forever home! It is unclear exactly what his past was like before being rescued by Saving Hope, but we can imagine it was not great. He was part of a massive rescue effort near the border in Eagle Pass, TX in early 2024 were 100’s of dogs had been abandoned. He was very fearful initially but has realized he’s safe and has blossomed into a spunky, curious, and cuddly boy.Given his rough start to life, he is understandably fearful of new people and places. He is used to running and hiding when afraid, and may express his fear or unease by growling, but it is fear, not aggression. Evander has done well exploring and navigating obstacles at Home Depot and other dog friendly places that aren’t overly crowded. He prefers to approach new people and sniff them before receiving pets. He caught on to potty training very quickly! Though he does not mean to cause trouble, he is still a puppy by nature. He is very curious and when he finds something interesting he might carry it around and take a bite or 2 but is learning “drop” and “leave it”. Evander happily takes a chew toy instead when redirected.Evander is a velcro baby and is happiest with his person close by – snuggles on the couch are his preferred activity after a little play time. He has not shown any resource guarding behaviors to his foster siblings and is just happy to be part of the pack – he has become very close to his pit bull foster sister and loves to roughhouse with her. He has been working hard on learning how to respect other dogs’ space when they are not in a cuddly or playful mood. He knows to wait at his “place” for his meals, and knows his crate is his safe place. He sleeps quietly in it at night and during the day while his human is at work. He is very treat-motivated and learns quickly from watching other dogs, and occasionally shows his stubborn boxer side but with consistency he learns the expected behavior. With a slow introduction to new dogs, he will adjust quickly and thrive!Evander loves to move, and this has helped him gain confidence! He is learning to allow his human to lead on a leash and gets a walk/run most mornings before spending several hours waiting for his foster mom to get home from work. He would LOVE more company during the day while he lazes around. While he is used to having a yard to run around, as long as he gets time to move every day he could adjust to
