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
Meet Sasha! 🐾 Sasha is a happy, playful 2–3-year-old Shepherd mix who is ready to find her forever family! This sweet girl showed up at a boarding facility and quickly made it clear that she absolutely loves people. She’s bright, affectionate, energetic, and always ready for some fun. One of Sasha’s biggest strengths is how smart and eager to learn she is. She already knows her basic commands and is both potty trained and kennel trained — what a great foundation for her new family! Sasha has plenty of youthful energy and would thrive with an active family who enjoys getting outside, playing, training, and keeping their dog engaged. She’s the kind of girl who wants to be part of the action and would love a family that can match her enthusiasm. Like many young, excited dogs, Sasha is still working on containing her excitement. She can be a little enthusiastic when greeting people and needs continued guidance with keeping all four paws on the floor instead of jumping up. With her intelligence and willingness to learn, we think she’ll make wonderful progress with consistent, positive training. We’re still learning how Sasha feels about cats and children, so those introductions will need to be handled thoughtfully. Sasha is a young, joyful girl with so much love and potential to give. If you’re looking for a smart, playful, people-loving companion who is ready to learn and experience life by your side, Sasha may be your girl! ❤️🐶 Local adoption fee is $300 (in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $550( includes transport to your area)

Meet your Brother! Brother and his brother Red were two adorable pups found living underneath a house in bad condition. After being rescued they found that things weren't all so bad! They became happy, playful and great puppies. They currently are learning tricks, how to have good table manners, and get along well with other dogs. Both Brother and Red have tons of energy and love playing with toys! They'll need a lot of chew toys to get them through their teething stage! Brother loves getting treats and is eager to learn new things. He tends to be a bit more dominant around other animals, he wants to be the top dog!

Blink and You May Miss Me! Blink is such an amazing boy that we have a feeling he wont be waiting long for his forever family! This handsome guy has a wonderful personality and is the kind of dog who makes being a good boy look easy. Hes a breeze on leash, knows sit, come, and down, and will even heel when given direction.

Hes ready to join his people for walks, adventures, or simply hang out and enjoy being part of the family. He may not actually be fast enough to cause whiplash, but Blink is definitely hoping to be adopted fast! Hes ready to show his new family just how amazing he is.

Meet Simon! This handsome 6 month old German Shepherd mix puppy is looking for a forever family that is ready for adventure, training, and lots of love. Based on Simon’s appearance, personality, and siblings, we believe he may be a German Shepherd with possibly some Belgian Malinois mixed in, but since we do not know his parents, this is only our best guess. Simon is incredibly smart and already showing all the traits these working breeds are known for. He is affectionate, playful, eager to learn, and loves being around his people. He is doing really well with crate training and is at the perfect age to continue building confidence, structure, and good manners with his future family. Because of his intelligence and energy level, Simon will need a breed knowledgeable owner who understands the importance of continued training, mental stimulation, and exercise as he grows into adulthood. He is not the type of puppy that will thrive being left alone all day with nothing to do. He will do best with an active family committed to helping him become the amazing dog he is meant to be. Simon is neutered, microchipped, and up to date on vaccines and preventions. $350 Local Adoption Fee (Texas) $650 Out of State Adoption Fee (includes transport to your area)

Meet Remus Lupin – A Gentle Soul Ready to Find His Pack! Just like his famous namesake, Remus Lupin is a quiet, kind hearted guy with so much love to give. This handsome 1–2-year-old Belgian Malinois may be a little shy when you first meet him, but give him a little patience and a few tasty treats, and you’ll quickly discover an incredibly sweet, loyal companion. Remus is currently building his confidence and can be a bit nervous in new environments or around loud noises. He’s looking for a family that understands every dog learns at their own pace and is willing to help him continue blossoming into the amazing dog he’s meant to be. One thing Remus has no shortage of is a desire to learn! He’s incredibly eager to please, making him a fantastic training partner. He’s highly food motivated, so teaching new skills is both fun and rewarding for him. While toys aren’t quite as exciting yet for training, he does enjoy chasing after a tennis ball…but he’s still figuring out that bringing it back is also part of the game! As a young Belgian Malinois, Remus will thrive with an active family committed to providing him with continued training, mental enrichment, and plenty of opportunities to build his confidence. In return, you’ll gain an incredibly devoted best friend who is ready to grow right alongside you. Remus is neutered, current on all vaccinations, and ready to head home with his fur-ever family today! If you’re looking for a loyal companion who will reward your patience with unwavering devotion, Remus Lupin is ready to become part of your pack. You will love this boy!!

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)
