My name is Stan, and I’m a sweet, gentle boy who can be a little shy when we first meet. Once I feel comfortable and get to know you, my playful side comes out! I do great with other dogs and kids and enjoy being part of a pack. I love spending my days lounging in the yard, chewing on sticks, and playing chase with my dog friends. Because I’m a shy guy, I’m looking for a patient and understanding family who will give me the time and space I need to open up. With love, consistency, and gentle guidance, I’ll happily learn all about my new life and become a loyal, loving companion. If you’re willing to go slow and let me build trust, I promise I’ll be worth it. Local adoption fee is $300(in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $550 (includes transport to your area)

Meet Bebe Looking for a gentle, shy, and oh-so-sweet pup to love? Bebe is your girl! This German Shepherd/Pitty mix has the perfect blend of brains, beauty, and heart. She's great with cats, dogs, and kids, making her a wonderful fit for a loving family. Though she's still learning the ropes of life like potty training and crate training, she shines brightest when she's playing with her siblings or soaking up head scratches and giving kisses. Bebe's story started when her brave mom, abandoned by her owner, found safety at her foster home to give birth. Dad has been faithfully by Mom's side for years, and together they've raised a litter of wonderful pups like Bebe. She may start off a little shy, but once she warms up, you'll see her fun side shine. Bebe loves to run and play with her siblings (she's the fastest of the bunch!) and will happily be your mellow cuddle buddy when it's time to rest. If you're looking for a pup who will adore you as much as you adore her, Bebe is waiting to meet you! Go ahead and submit an adoption application for her now! Favorite toy: Her siblings Best rub spot: Right between the eyes Hidden skill: Outrunning everyone at playtime!

Story
Are you looking for a BIG, happy, cuddly boy with a little puppy still living inside him? Then you need to meet Aries! Aries is a handsome Shepherd mix with long legs and an even bigger personality. At 5 years old, this boy apparently never got the memo that he’s supposed to be an adult! Give him some room to run and you’ll see him zooming across the field and bounding around like a puppy who just discovered his legs. And then there’s his favorite activity… BELLY RUBS! Aries absolutely loves them and has even perfected his adoption-event strategy: roll over, expose the belly, and wait for the rubs to begin! He knows exactly how to charm the crowd. Aries can pull a little on leash when he first heads out, but give him about 15 minutes and he settles into a nice walk. He’s a big boy with a big heart who loves attention and affection. The hardest part about Aries? He has been waiting at the rescue for 3 YEARS for someone to choose him. He has so much love to give and is still hoping that his forever person will finally walk through the door. If your heart has room for a big, goofy, happy, long-legged cuddlebug, Aries is waiting for you. Maybe after three long years, it’s finally his turn to go home. Local adoption fee is $300 (in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $550 (includes transport to your area)

WILDFIRE HERE — AND I’M READY TO SET YOUR HEART ON FIRE! Hi, hoomans! I’m Wildfire, and before we get started, let me just say… I’m not actually on fire. I’m just REALLY excited about life. I’m a high-energy, fun-loving guy who believes sitting around doing nothing is highly overrated. Got a ball? I’m in. Going for a walk? LET’S GO! Adventure? I already grabbed my shoes! I need a family who understands that I come with FULL BATTERY MODE . I love playing, exploring, learning, and keeping my brain busy. Puzzle toys, training, games, walks, adventures, enrichment—I want it ALL! If you’re looking for a couch potato, I respectfully suggest you keep scrolling. But don’t worry—I’m not just a handsome face with a ridiculous amount of energy. I’m also a GOOD BOY™! ✅ Crate trained — I know how to chill in my own little suite. ✅ Potty trained — Because nobody likes surprise presents on the carpet. ✅ Great with other dogs — I love having furry friends! ✅ Great with kids — More people to play with? YES! ✅ Professional fun-haver — I have extensive experience. I’m looking for my FOREVER FAMILY, not just a temporary pit stop. I want someone who will keep me active, give me lots of mental stimulation, continue my training, and let me be part of the family. In exchange, I promise to provide unlimited laughs, zoomies, kisses, entertainment, and unconditional love. So if you’re an active family looking for a goofy, energetic, social guy who is ready to make your life approximately 87% more fun, I think we need to talk. Come meet me. I’ll bring the personality. You bring the treats. Deal? Love, Wildfire Local adoption fee is $350(in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $650 (includes transport to your area)

Raven is my name and kind of like a raven, I am a 'loner'... except for the puppies i had when I arrived at the rescue... I was saved by a trapper on the streets, they weren't even there to save ME that day, but they did!!! I am obviously a beautiful girl, big and solid as well as black and brindly. I am a loving girl, in my own way... i lived on the streets for who knows how long and I honestly am not a cuddly girl or even a sit by your feet dog, YET... I have all kinds of love to give, you can see in my eyes that I have always dreamed of someone with the patience to love me for who I am and who I can be!! I am great on a leash and do love walking around and exploring. I am good with other dogs and likely would do best with another dog who is calm and confident with his/her family. I am so so ready for you, I have the shepherd double coat so I will shed in your house, must have a great vacuum cleaner and tolerance of hair :) Local adoption fee is $300(in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $550 (includes transport to your area)

Story
Sheeba is my name and I am quite the celebrity around here :) Let me tell you all about it... have a seat and grab some tea. I was living on the streets with a gang of friends... found by a rescuer we were being fed but there was no room to put all of us. Of course, I was pregnant and after I gave birth the rescuers were afraid with all the storms that my babies wouldn't survive out there. So the pound was called, and let me tell you....I WOULD HAVE PROTECTED MY PUPS WITH MY LIFE........ of course, that is deemed "aggressive"and after my two day stray hold I was going to be euthanized and my puppies sent to rescues to bottle feed and raise up :( But MY rescue said, UH UH... She comes with the pups.... and they MADE IT HAPPEN! Now, it wasn't easy but I settled in to the routine and learned my caregiver's names and soon enough I was eating out of their hands. And they learned some neat but sad things about me.... I belonged to someone who trained me....... it is sad because no one has any idea where that person is nor why I was living on the streets :( Also, I am a very smart girl so I am also very sensitive to change....but, with my pups grown and adopted, I am now a model citizen at the rescue. Look at my video....I had JUST met the trainer that day and she absolutely fell head over heels for me. Now I am ready for you, I will complete your family. I am still working on my other dog skills and would probably be best where I can be the only dog and give you all my love. I am a gorgeous girl, my coat resembles a Belgian Shepherd's and I have GSD face and mannerisms. So if you want to adopt me, you must love and understand the working breeds. We need an outlet for our drive and you have to provide that to give me a great balanced life. I am ready, I hope you are too!!
