Story
Hello, I'm Vanna. I may seem shy at first, but once you get to know me, you'll see I'm as sweet as they come. I'm independent, yet I love to cuddle when it's quiet and calm. My gentle nature makes me the perfect companion for a peaceful home. I have a mellow personality, I'm not the type to jump around, but I enjoy a good stroll or a cozy nap. I promise, if you give me a chance, I'll fill your life with quiet love and gentle companionship. Why should you adopt me? Because every home needs a touch of sweetness, and I have plenty to share. Don't forget that I come with a FREE training session from GoodPup to help you build a strong bond from the start. If you would like to meet me, please come to the New Orleans Campus, at 1700 Mardi Gras Blvd. I can't wait to meet you!

Story
NOTE: To apply to adopt, please visit our website: www.BaytownHumaneSociety.org This absolute Jewel is as sweet as she is beautiful! She had been dumped in a neighborhood bordering a busy highway. The neighbors all posted about her, but no one took her in - for weeks! But, then, a BHS volunteer saw her plight and brought her to safety. What we know about PomPom is that she is a young German Shepherd (Malinois?) mix who had given birth in recent months. No pups were found with her, and we searched the area for days after PomPom was captured. She was very thin and wasn't feeling too good, either. Seemed just sad. 🙁 She has now gained back her weight and her spirit! PomPom is young, weighs approximately 55 pounds, and is happy and energetic. She has been wormed, fully vaccinated, microchipped, and spayed! Just needs a good home added to be absolutely PERFECT! PomPom got her name because of the way she waves that pom-pom of a tail she is blessed to have! What's left of the tail bone stops about about 3 inches short of the bushy little pom-pom fluff that you see at the end. PomPom is a natural cheerleader!! She definitely know how to wave that pom-pom!! 🙂 She was very skittish at first, and afraid of the other dogs in the foster home; but, with proper introduction, she decided to become friends with them. PomPom is good with people; but, oddly enough seems to prefer men. She loves the Foster Mom and gives plenty of kisses; but, she REALLY is happy to see the Foster Dad and will lie in his lap for hours! 😊 She is good other dogs; but, will give a squirrel a run for the money! Look at the photo, here, showing a squirrel looking down and giving her a good talkin'-to! She does have a pretty strong prey drive; so, we believe a home without cats will be best. She loves her toys and has not torn up any of them, (maybe thinks they are her babies, now?) nor has she chewed any furniture or shoes! She appears to have been house-trained, already, as she has never had a single 'accident' in the house. PomPom is quiet and accepts whatever situation you put her in without complaint. She does not dig or bark unnecessarily; and she rides beautifully in the car. Takes treats from your hand very gently. She is a very grateful and compliant girl who loves to show and receive affection! She is going to make some lucky family VERY happy for years to come! Apply for her at www.BaytownHumaneSociety.org , if you are interested in making PomPom the newest member of your family!!

Story
Meet Nola! Nola is a beautiful, smart, affectionate young shepherd with a tiger-striped coat and a playful spirit. Nola is always ready for an adventure! If you're looking for an active companion to get out there and do fun activities with Nola is your girl. Her natural athleticism makes her the perfect jogging, fetch, or frisbee partner, and if you're looking to get more involved in the community you could even join a sports club and participate in different events such as agility and obedience with her! Like a typical New Orleanian, Nola loves enjoying beignets after exercising. She especially loves beignets if they include hanging out with you in City Park. Nola already knows "sit" and learned her name in a day. She is very treat motivated and will be easy to continue training. She bonds quickly to her people and gets very excited to see you, even if you've only been gone 5 minutes (adorable). Nola would thrive in a loving, active home where she can be a part of the family. Nola is spayed, microchipped, and up to date on vaccines. She also comes with a FREE training session from GoodPup to help you build a strong bond from the start. If you're ready to add some excitement and joy to your life, please consider welcoming Nola into your home. This cutie won't last long so come meet her on the New Orleans Campus, at 1700 Mardi Gras Blvd. She can't wait to meet you!
