Story
Meet Dario, the most gentle and affectionate pup you'll ever encounter! With his soft, light brown fur and striking black-lined eyes, he's a real heart-stealer. Dario is the ultimate lap dog, always eager for belly rubs, snuggles, and a good nap. He’s a laid-back guy who enjoys munching on strawberries, playing with frisbee rings, and soaking up attention. At around 29 lbs, Dario is the perfect medium-sized companion, and he’s likely to stay under 35 lbs. If you’re looking for a sweet, loving dog to brighten your days, Dario is your guy! *His mama is 30lbs and her full grown brother is 33 lbs. Marco was neutered on 8/2/24

Story
Hades and his brother Zeus were dumped in our neighborhood in the Rio Grande Valley. Hades is a super duper affectionate dog and would rather have pets over eating. I believe Hades lived on a tether most of his life and does not like his collar to be touched. He is learning to walk on leash wearing a harness and loves to run around the backyard with his pug best friend. His brother was adopted several months ago and we are looking for a loving home for Hades. He did suffer an injury at some point to his front right foot that causes him to walk with is foot turned outward, but it does not appear to cause him any pain when walking or running. Hades would love to find a home where he can lay on the couch with his head in your lap and go to sleep. He is negative for heartworm and is up to date on his vaccines as well as house trained.

Story
Phoenix was born in September of 2012 and weighs about 65 pounds. He is a playful, loving boy with those he knows well. When he loves you he wants to be with you as much as possible. He can be protective of his human friends. When he sees one of his human friends coming he is so excited his tail doesn't stop wagging. He loves his baths and will run and jump in the washtub begging for a bath whenever given the opportunity. He walks well on a leash and rides great in the car. He gets along with a lot of dogs (as long as they don't challenge him) and enjoys running and playing with them. Phoenix is a real prince who came as a pauper. He was in terrible condition upon arrival, nearly starved with severe mange and infected skin. But with loving attention (of course, there was medicine in there, too!) he blossomed into the beautiful boy he is today. He suffered so much, please give him the opportunity to be your Prince Charming. He deserves to have a happy ever after ending for his story. ##47418##
