Story
Hello, I have major health issues and with a heavy heart I need to re home Jack and Jelly. Jack is approximately 3 years old full blood German Shepherd jelly is approximately 1 and 1/2 Coonhound German Shepherd mix. I adopted them both at the same time. Have a shoulder elbow injury and recently lost my income. Very rough times and I would not do this unless I had no choice. They are wonderful. Very loving obedient. Very powerful strong dogs that need active lives. I would like to keep them together if at all possible. Please reach out to me you will not regret these dogs. I love them so much. I just want to find them a happy healthy home where they can have fun and get the exercise they deserve. Located in Euless. They have all their shots have been neutered and spayed and have microchips. They were both on the euthanasia list at Fort Worth when I adopted them.

Trouble is the absolute opposite of her name, when we imported her as a puppy from Ukraine she proved that she's the sweetest dog we have ever owned, she gets along with everyone, we have a toddler, she loves kids and other dogs, she loves her ball, doesn't have typical frenchie breathing issues, athletic and loves people, she loves to do what you do, enjoys car rides, hikes.. treats, we unfortunately cannot relocate with her as the new landlord said absolutely no dogs, I want an amazing home for her.. she gets treats daily, I've raised her on amazing diet, She's the best dog! No bad habits either

Story
Looking for the Right Forever Home 🐾❤️ Name: Vincent aka Vinny This sweet boy was born on March 10, 2026, and is currently 20 weeks old. When he was about 11–12 weeks old, I made the difficult decision to rehome him. I spent time researching the family and truly believed he was going to a loving, safe home. On July 31, 2026, everything changed. I received a message from his owner saying she would abandon him because she could no longer care for him due to health issues. She told me that if I couldn’t figure something out by 6:00 PM, she would let him go. There was no way I could let that happen. I brought him home immediately, and my family will be fostering him until we can find the loving forever home he deserves.
