Story
Apollo, who I love to call Poe, is a Great Pyrenees I adopted from a shelter about 4 years ago (12/02/2021). He is a sweet and loving boy who loves to cuddle. If he could be a lap dog, he would be! He is estimated to be around 7-8 years old, but it is not too difficult to get him excited and acting like a puppy. He still has pretty good energy and loves to play. I am looking to rehome him with a family that is well experienced in taking care of large dogs with troublesome behaviors. Apollo is potty trained, but has difficulty holding his urine for longer than 6 hours at a time so he may have accidents from time to time. He is also fear-aggressive and anxious. He has improved over the years, but he has never been trained by an expert. I tried my best to correct his fear. He can get along with nonreactive dogs with very slow introductions and trust building, but he needs an owner that will learn how to redirect him safely in cases where he might become aggressive.

Story
Woody is a bright, energetic young pup who loves to run, play, and make new friends; human, canine, and feline. He’s especially fond of squeaky toys and sticks! He also enjoys playtime with other dogs. Though initially a bit shy, he warms up quickly and shows his sweet, playful personality. Woody has only ever known his name and responds to it very well for a five-month-old puppy. He is also (mostly) crate trained and settling nicely into a structured routine. While bath time isn’t his favorite, he loves splashing in water and exploring outdoors. Woody would thrive in an active home that can keep up with his enthusiasm and help him continue growing into a confident, well-rounded dog.

Story
Gesso just turned 1 this month. He is an 85lb, golden retriever/akbash mix. We've had him since he was 8wks old. He's neutered, house broken, knows basic commands, walks well on a leash and is up to date on his rabies vax. He is a very energetic boy who needs an active home, preferably with a large yard or property to roam. An owner with prior dog and training experience is also preferable. He has been raised with our two young kids, 3 and 2yrs, and is good with them but often knocks them over because he's so rambunctious. He's good with other dogs, after a slow introduction, and would love to have another dog in the home to play with. He has an environmental allergy that makes him itchy sometimes. We've managed this with a low-dose Prednisone when we see it flare up. Gesso is a good boy but with a new baby and 2 toddlers we just don't have the time to exercise him and give him the attention he needs.

Catahoula Leopard Dog

Male, Adult
Universal City, TX
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Good with kids, Good with dogs, Not good with cats, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained,
Story
Someone found him with his litter mates dropped out in the country and I brought him home to be a companion for my other dog, almost three years ago. Diesel is a two year old catahula mix. He has a huge personality and at times he is very vocal. He is energetic and friendly and very affectionate and loves to give hugs and cuddle. However, recently my 7 year old pit has started snapping at him when he would get too hyper and it recently turned into several fights. The pit was the aggressor in each incident. Luckily neither dog was seriously injured but I don't think my older dog has the patience for his high energy and shenanigans. Looking for an active home that can provide him with the love and attention he deserves. He is up to date on his rabies but still needs his other shots.

Details

Story
We have a 1 year old German Shepard/Belgian Malinois mix. I came into possession of her after my BF and I split up. She was originally his dog but left her here. She is house broken; microchipped and intact. She does respond to commands like sit; stay; come; outside and eat. She is a very good animal but I don't have the time to give to her. My work schedule makes it difficult. I've noticed my allergies have been bothered by her dander too.
