Story
Here’s Apollo’s updated bio with a stronger emotional pull: Meet Apollo — Still Waiting for His Turn Apollo is now 1 year old, and while he has watched so many of his friends leave for their forever homes, he is still waiting. He watches them go, one by one, and he simply doesn’t understand why no one has chosen him yet. Apollo is a happy, energetic boy who is absolutely full of life. He loves to play, explore, learn, and be part of everything happening around him. He has so much love to give and is ready for a family who will include him in their adventures and help him continue becoming the incredible dog we already know he is. Behind all that energy is a sweet boy who just wants to belong. Apollo has waited long enough. He deserves to know what it feels like to be the one packing his bags, saying goodbye, and heading home. Please don’t let Apollo watch another friend leave without him. Could you be the family he has been waiting for? visit www.pawsinprisontx.org ##2579831##

Story
Meet Dip — Paws in Prison Graduate! 14.4 pounds of sweetness, sass, personality, and pure love — meet Dip! At 1 year and 1 month old, Dip may be tiny, but don’t let her size fool you. This adorable tricolor Chihuahua mix has a personality BIG enough to fill the whole room. She is quite possibly one of the cutest and sweetest little pups you’ll ever meet, with just the right amount of spunk packed into that little 14.4-pound body. Dip came into the Paws in Prison program alongside her brother, Chip, as a young pup with her whole life ahead of her. Since then, she has grown, learned, gained confidence, and accomplished something pretty special: Dip is officially a Paws in Prison graduate! Through the dedication of her inmate trainers, Dip has spent her time learning important skills, structure, manners, and how to be the very best companion she can be. But through all that training, one thing has never changed — Dip is still 100% Dip. She’s affectionate, playful, curious, funny, and full of personality. She loves attention, loves being close to her people, and has a way of making you smile without even trying. Those expressive eyes, those ears, and that tiny little body are almost impossible to resist. Dip has done the work. She has earned her graduation. Now there is only one thing missing from her story — a family of her very own. Dip is 1 year, 1 month old and weighs 14.4 pounds. She is a graduate of the Paws in Prison program and is ready for adoption. She may only take up 14.4 pounds of space in your home... but we have a feeling she’ll take up your whole heart. visit www.pawsinprisontx.org ##2776823##

Story
Meet Beamer — Yep, He’s Pretty Much Perfect Is he perfect? Yep. Pretty much. Meet Beamer, a 5-month-old Terrier/Basset Hound mix weighing in at 19.1 pounds of brindle-coated cuteness, personality, and pure entertainment. Beamer is already halfway through his Paws in Prison training, and this little guy is proving to be one smart cookie. Speaking of cookies… Beamer is fluent in one very important language: He speaks TREAT. Bring out the snacks and suddenly this boy is ready to learn anything you’d like to teach him! Beamer is playful, outgoing, and incredibly social. He loves toys, loves to play, loves people, and loves other dogs. He’s the kind of pup who walks into a room and immediately makes himself part of whatever fun is happening. And then there’s that face. Those eyes. Those ears. Those little white feet. At just 5 months old, Beamer still has plenty of puppy fun ahead of him, but he’s already getting the training, structure, and foundation he needs to become an incredible family companion. Halfway through training 5 months old 19.1 pounds Terrier/Basset Hound mix Toy fanatic Loves other dogs Loves everybody Primary language: TREAT Beamer is ready to steal the show — and probably your heart while he’s at it. Because sometimes the perfect dog comes with short legs, a brindle coat, goofy ears…and an excellent understanding of the treat economy. visit www.pawsinprisontx.org ##2843934##
