This cutie’s name is Ace. He is the sweetest, most loving good boy out there. He is very clingy and LOVES to be petted. His best companion is a female dog, but he also gets along with cats. He needs a family who will give him the full attention he deserves (which is a lot lol!). Please message me for more info. Neutered

We got Elsa from a neighbor a few doors down. Elsa is a cute, loving girl. She is 2 years old (DOB Jan 2nd 2022). She loves to go an walks and play outside. She definitely loves toys. We just want her to go to a loving home where she can get the time and attention she deserves. If adopted, there is no adoption fee and she comes with her food bowl, water bowl with dispenser, 40lbs food storage container, and I will purchase a bag of dog of your choice so it's an easy transition.

Story
Harlingen, Texas, 78552. my social medias and email are: eliseavalos His name is Miller/Millie (male), he is 2 years old (born July 2022), weighs approximately 43 pounds. I need help getting him fixed I am a full time student I work part time as a server and try my best to provide a good life for him. I rescued him from a welding shop because he was in the heat and in bad condition. I’ve had him since he was 6 weeks old and we have a strong bond. Due to family and financial reasons I am trying to find a good forever home for my 2 year old blue heeler. He is high energy, loving, smart, and healthy. He needs a lot of attention and it would be ideal to give him to someone who is active and does not have other dogs. I am trying my best to train him to be social and not reactive to other dogs on walks, he is doing very well! I am devastated to let him go I will miss him forever. I love him dearly. I want him to have the best life he can possibly have. Feel free to reach out to me anytime

Story
Mae is the sweetest girl and just turned one year old. We fostered then adopted her at four weeks and she has grown up with our three kids and four other dogs. Unfortunately, we live in a suburban area, and she has learned to jump the height of our fence. Because we share a fence, our neighbor will not let us install measures to help keep her in. We are having to keep her contained in a crate most of the time and we don’t think any dog should have to live like that. Ideally, Mae needs to be with owners who have a lot of space (think farm or lots of land) where she can run, more freely and less restricted! She’s great with our kids, with other dogs and has a great personality. She knows basic commands (Sit, wait, come) and was potty trained but the crate issue has begun to confuse her a bit, so she made need a refresher on being an inside dog.

Story
Meet Joel, one of the sweetest, most playful and most loving dogs you’ll ever know. When we first met him roughly seven months ago, while I was working at my shop, this adorable little puppy wandered up to me. He was clearly a stray; malnourished, and covered with fleas and ticks. Throughout my shift, he would continue to walk up to me in order to get pets. That night, I decided to bring him home with me. We immediately bathed him, rid him of all ticks and fleas, gave him a much needed meal. Since then, he’s grown to be a well sized, healthy boy who needs more room to roam than we can provide him. Saying goodbye to him will be heartbreaking, but we hope that he can find a better home than what we are able to provide this gentle, loving boy.

Story
Coco just turned one! He is a super loving and energetic dog who brings joy to everyone he meets. Coco loves going on walks and exploring new places. He requires a lot of attention and really thrives in an environment where he can be active and engaged. Whether its playing fetch in the yard or snuggling up on the couch, Coco is always ready to share his love and energy. He would be a perfect addition to a family that can match his enthusiasm and provide him with the care and companionship he deserves.
