Bella Trixie was abandoned at H.E.B. but found by a kindly soul and is now in boarding. She is awesome with people and other dogs. Sweet, affectionate, loyal and so friendly.

Bella Trixie is so grateful for a pet on the head and a good meal. She deserves to be spoiled and loved. She loves training and responds well to treats and great on leash! Gentle is the name of the game for Bella Trixie! Ask about our lifetime holistic program and our foster to adopt program.

Story
Valkyrie: A Gentle Heart That Shines Through Valkyrie may not look her best right now, but her spirit tells a much brighter story. She’s currently receiving care for some facial swelling and skin irritation, and she’s already on the path to feeling better. Through it all, she hasn’t let any of it dim his sweet nature. She continues to seek out affection, leaning into pets and staying close to his human friends whenever she can. Her gentle, friendly personality comes through in every interaction, and she finds comfort simply being near someone who cares. Valkyrie is the kind of dog who reminds you how powerful love and kindness can be, even during tough moments. Opening your home to Valkyrie means being part of her healing journey. It’s a chance to make a real difference while gaining a deeply loyal companion who will appreciate every bit of care you give. Dogs like Valkyrie have a special way of forming meaningful bonds, and the connection you build with him will be one you won’t forget. If you can offer Valkyrie a soft place to land and help her through this time, consider fostering or adopting and giving her the care and compassion he’s been waiting for.

Story
Hi I'm Big Chief and I'd love for you to read what my foster wrote about me. When Big Chief first arrived in our home, he was absolutely terrified 💔. After spending years surviving as a stray, he believed the safest thing to do was stay hidden. He tucked himself away in a bedroom, only sneaking out when he truly had to. New people, unfamiliar noises, my husband, my son—everything felt scary to him. But that’s not who Big Chief is anymore 🌟🐾 Over time, we’ve had the privilege of watching this gentle soul slowly begin to trust the world again. Day by day, he’s started stepping out of the shadows and into family life. Now, he joins us around the house, seeks out affection, and enjoys simply being near the people he trusts 💕. Watching his confidence grow—one brave little step at a time—has been incredibly special. Big Chief absolutely thrives with other animals 🐶🐱. He lives beautifully with both dogs and cats and takes a lot of comfort from their presence. One of his favorite things in the world is walking alongside his canine foster brother, who has helped teach him how to relax and “just be a dog” 🌳🐕. Because of this, we truly believe he would do best in a home with another calm, friendly pet to help continue building his confidence. This handsome boy is: ✔️ Completely house-trained 🚽 ✔️ Low-energy and easygoing 💤 ✔️ Wonderful with dogs and cats 🐾 ✔️ Happy with a calm, predictable routine 🏡 Big Chief doesn’t need a busy or adventurous life—he just needs a safe and loving one 💛. He’s still a timid dog, but what makes him so remarkable is how hard he’s trying. Every new bit of trust, every quiet cuddle, every moment he chooses connection over fear feels deeply meaningful. He may not be the dog who runs into your arms on the first day. But Big Chief is the kind of dog who, with patience, kindness, and love, will slowly choose you—and that bond is truly priceless ✨. Even his appearance reflects his transformation: his once-neglected coat is growing back soft and golden, just like the warmth and safety he’s finally beginning to feel inside ☀️🐶. Big Chief is looking for a calm home, patient humans, and ideally a furry companion to help guide him as he continues learning that the world can be kind 💕

Siobhan is an incredibly goofy girl. She loves to run to the couch and flip before she sits down. That’s being said, she’s also pretty lazy. She does a flip and then is content to snooze.She is an amazingly smart dog. She takes to training very well and could learn just about anything if you can devote the time to teaching her.Siobhan is also incredibly affectionate. She loves snuggling on the couch, belly rubs, and she gives a lot of kisses.She has been living with her sister, Sinead, her whole life and gets along very well with her. That being said, she does have a bit of a jealous streak. Siobhan wants to be your number one, and would be happiest as an only pet. She has not been socialized to other dogs.She is NOT good with cats.We are heartbroken to have to rehome her. Our schedules simply don’t allow us to devote the deserved and needed attention to the girls (Sinead is also available.) I can’t live with the idea of them being crated so often.Please reach out with questions.

Story
Meet Sydney, a serene and affectionate Belgian Malinois Shepherd mix with a heart as gentle as her gaze. Sydney is the definition of calm—nothing seems to faze her. She’s incredibly dog and cat friendly, and her low to medium energy level makes her a wonderful match for a peaceful home. Sydney is being fostered in a loving home in San Antonio, TX, where she gets along beautifully with her German Shepherd foster sister. Sydney walks beautifully on a leash and makes an excellent walking buddy for those who enjoy quiet neighborhood strolls. However, her true happy place is outside—she absolutely thrives in a yard where she can explore, relax, and enjoy nature. A home with outdoor space is a must for this sweet girl. Potty trained and polite, Sydney is well-mannered around the house. She's a little shy when meeting new people or visiting unfamiliar places, so she’ll need a patient and loving family willing to give her time to settle in. Once she trusts you, she’ll show you her soft, affectionate side and soak up every bit of attention you're willing to give. Sydney is also a cozy cuddle buddy—she loves curling up next to you on the couch for some quiet bonding time. While she’s not a fan of car rides, Sydney is happy living the homebody life. She’s currently looking for a foster or adopter in Central Texas who can offer her the calm, consistent environment she deserves. If you're looking for a gentle, loyal companion, Sydney is ready to make your heart her home. To see more pictures and videos of Sydney copy and paste this link, you can apply directly for Sydney by clicking the Apply for Adoption button on the linked page. https://www.shelterluv.com/embed/animal/FODS-A-550 All our dogs come with 30 days of free post-adoption support through Petcademy.org. This benefit includes free access to Petcademy's team of trainers/behaviorists, as well as access to online materials that will help you settle your new family member into your home.

Good with kids, Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Chase is a wonderful dog....he has all the physical characteristics of a Belgian Malinois...lanky and graceful...but not the high prey drive bred into this breed. Have you ever wanted to share your home with one of these magnificent dogs, but not the intense qualities that are chosen for drug detection work by the FBI. Chase is happy playing ball or going on a nice walk and then curling up to watch the FBI on tv with you, not engaging in going after criminals in real life.  He is gorgeous and fun, a super lovable lean and attractive doggy. Chase has glowing reports from his foster home. He loves car rides, is fully crate trained, quiet for a GSD breed! Super people and dog friendly. Chase came from Palm Valley where he was shutting down after being relinquished to the high kill shelter by his family. Like so many beautiful dogs, Chase did nothing wrong to be let down by his humans.  We have an excellent foster program which allows us to help another dog from another high kill area. Please consider sharing your home with our boy, Chase. May 23, 2024, 3:59 pm
