Story
Kaylani is a sweet pup I found standing in the road at a stop light looking into vehicles. At first I passed her by but went back later and she was still in the road. She was hesitant to get in my vehicle. I think she was hoping for her owner to come back. :( when she did get in, she knew how. She is behaved in the house and is Ok in the yard but I know it is hot for her out there in Texas heat. I have cats in a fenced area in my yard and she seems interested in them but doesn’t bark or scare them. I have seen her chase a small snake out of my yard and chase a possum out of my yard so she has earned her keep :) she needs someone to love. She is always so happy to see me. I can’t give her the attention she needs.

Story
Sadie came to me from a family member about 3 years ago. She’s a wonderful girl, loving and loyal. However, she is a little slow to warm up but once she does, she’s a loyal protector. She is also food aggressive and needs to the the only pet in the home. She wants to give affection and receive attention. She’s a good girl that needs a specific type of great home!

Story
We absolutely love Luna but with the addition of a baby to our family, she is just a little too hyper for our infant. We hate to get rid of her but for our daughter it is the safest option. She is a sweetheart and she is great with her, just when she gets in her hyper moods she becomes a little bit of a hazard.

Story
Promise they don't get much better than this one! Insanely friendly but protective Texas Heeler. 2 years old House broke Shots up to date - Healthy Come on command, listens and obeys well. Loves to play catch with the ball and Frisbee. Has new bag of food, kennel, bowls, blanket...everything you will need. Absolutely beautify loving dog. So WHY are we letting her go? We sold everything and bought an RV. Poor dog needs a yard and attention which we can't give her. Honestly we feel really bad for her. She would do well with children or on a farm. We want to ensure she goes to a proper home. We will do some vetting. She is a dream puppy for sure.

Story
The first time I got Rosie, no one wanted her because of her breed. She is the sweetest dog in the world. She loves to play and run around. I’ve never been able to give her a yard to run around in for freedom. She loves to go outside. She is so sympathetic and just wants to live a free life.

Story
I need to find a home for my sweet Lucy bear. I picked her up when she was starving and wandering in the middle of the road two years ago and have been caring for her ever since. She is a sweetheart to people but is not good with other animals. Please share with anyone you think could give Lucy a loving home.
