Story
Meet Bertha, a four-year-old French Bulldog mix with a face that could get away with absolutely anything! With her gorgeous merle coat, adorable little booty swirls, big bat ears, and permanently silly expression, Bertha is basically a walking cartoon character.
This girl is a little ball of personality and SO much fun. She is confident, affectionate, and loves being around her people. Bertha is currently in a foster home with kids and other dogs, and she is doing wonderfully. She is sweet and gentle with the kiddos and loves all the attention they give her. She even enjoys playing hide-and-seek and will happily climb into a lap for some cuddle time. When Dad wants to wrestle, Bertha is absolutely ready for the challenge!

But Bertha's true love story is with her TOYS. This girl is completely toy-obsessed. Give her the biggest stuffy in the room and she'll proudly parade around with it like she just won a trophy. She loves playing fetch, tug, shaking her toys around, and entertaining herself with her favorite treasures.
Bertha is also a pretty easygoing girl. She has a medium energy level with short bursts of playful silliness, followed by plenty of relaxing. She doesn't need hours of exercise to be happy and would do wonderfully in an apartment as long as she has toys, mental enrichment, and some fun playtime. She is perfectly capable of keeping herself entertained when her people are busy.
With other dogs, Bertha is friendly but pretty nonchalant. She doesn't need to be the center of the doggy social scene and is happy doing her own thing. She would do best with dogs over 25 pounds and a home that understands her love of toys and gives her appropriate boundaries around her favorite possessions.
As for cats, we're still figuring that part out! Bertha did well during her cat test, but because she showed some prey drive and intensity, we'd love to see additional testing in a home environment before making a final determination.
Bertha is confident, hilarious, affectionate, playful, and just the right amount of sassy. She's the kind of girl who will steal your stuffy, steal your lap, steal your heart, and somehow make you thank her for all three.

https://g.co/kgs/UQ5Pyai We care deeply about creating lasting matches between dog and family for long term success, and take the time to ensure each adoption is a fit through our matchmaking process.
At our 2 acre Texas based property, we assess every animal with trainers on staff, we modify behavior as needed, and create individualized behavior plans to help prepare dogs for their future families including crate training, potty training, leash walking, etc. Our fosters are able to attend group training and socialization play groups helping them stay confident, well rounded, and adoption-ready. Our on-site trainers are dedicated to each dog’s growth and we enjoy seeing their progress!
We go above and beyond to ensure every animal receives exceptional care. Veterinarians consistently praise our medical standards. From routine care to advanced treatments, each dog receives personalized attention. Hard costs for a healthy dog range from $804-$920; heartworm-positive dogs or those needing specialized care can exceed $2,000+. Adoption fees help cover a portion of these expenses, but without government funding, we rely on fundraising to bridge the gap—ranging from $100–$1,000+ per dog.
Our adoption fees reflect the extensive care and resources that go into each animal we save. The adoption fee is a donation to the mission and goes far beyond getting a fully vetted pet.
