Rick

Terrier (Unknown Type, Medium)

Male, 1 yr

The Colony, TX

Size

(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less

Details

Story

Rick is a 1-year-old neutered male Terrier mix with an adorably scruffy coat and the cutest BIG pointy ears you’ve ever seen!Rick can be a little unsure when meeting someone new, but it usually only takes a treat or two before he decides you might just be his new best friend. Once he trusts you, this sweet boy loves being close to his people—and despite what his size may suggest, Rick absolutely considers himself a lap dog!He already knows how to sit… although you may have to convince him that sitting is actually worth his time. Luckily, Rick isn’t picky when it comes to treats, so a little bribery goes a long way!Rick is still building confidence while walking on a leash, but he’s making great progress. He’s also a good boy in the bathtub, especially when snacks are involved.Rick appears to be dog-friendly, but a meet and greet with any resident dogs will be required. Because he can be a little cautious at first, we think he would do best with children ages 6 and up.If you’re looking for a scruffy, pointy-eared little sidekick who just needs a little patience before showing you his big personality, Rick may be your guy!

Story

Serena is an 11-month-old spayed female American Pit Bull Terrier with a beautiful blue and white coat and a gentle, sensitive personality.Serena is still learning that the world—and the people in it—can be safe. She can be anxious when spending time in the yard or going for walks, but having another dog by her side helps give her reassurance and confidence.Her absolute favorite place to be is curled up on the couch next to a dog friend. That is where Serena is the most relaxed, comfortable, and confident. She truly thrives around other dogs and will need a home with a friendly, confident canine companion who can help show her the ropes.Serena does not seek out a lot of human affection just yet, but she is slowly learning that people can be kind and trustworthy. She needs someone who understands that building that relationship may take time and who will allow her to progress at her own pace.A quiet, predictable home with a patient owner and another dog is exactly what Serena needs to truly shine. She may not be the dog who runs up and jumps into your lap on day one, but with patience, consistency, and a canine best friend beside her, we believe Serena will continue to grow into the sweet, confident girl we know is hiding inside.CURRENTLY OFFSITE WITH A VOLUNTEER TO WORK ON CONFIDENCE.

Leonard

Australian Cattle Dog Hound (Unknown Type)

Male, 2 yrs 7 mos

The Colony, TX

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Story

Leonard is a 2.5-year-old neutered male Heeler/Hound mix with striking red and white coloring and beautiful speckling that makes him truly stand out.Leonard came from a situation where he had very little positive interaction with people, so he is still learning to trust and feel comfortable in a home. He can be avoidant with people at first and will need a patient, calm owner who understands that he may need a longer decompression period. With time, consistency, and some tasty treats, he may begin to come around.Leonard would do best in a home with a calm, well-mannered dog who can help teach him how to “dog” and show him that affection from people can be a good thing. He will need slow introductions and may seem indifferent toward another dog at first, but that’s okay. With time, he may begin watching and mirroring their behavior in the home. A meet and greet will be required.Leonard absolutely loves playing in water, especially when he gets to chase his siblings through the splash pad! He also enjoys playing tug with stuffed animals and is doing much better on leash.He would do best in a calm home without young children and with a securely fenced yard where he can safely explore and continue building confidence.Leonard may need extra time to adjust, but with patience, routine, and the right canine companion by his side, he has the potential to become a loyal and loving member of the family.
