Story
Meet Teddy – Young, Curious, and Full of Energy Teddy is a 9-month-old female who’s eager to learn and ready to explore the world around her. She’s still a puppy at heart—full of curiosity, energy, and love to give. She previously lived with adults and a teenager but didn’t share a home with other pets. When left alone, Teddy stays in a crate and may whine at first, but she settles once she feels secure. Personality: Playful, curious, and affectionate once she feels comfortable Training: Knows “sit,” “gentle,” “down,” and even “jump” (especially if treats are involved!) Likes: Belly rubs, walks, and sniffing everything in sight Quirks: Doesn’t like having her paws or mouth touched Social life: Gets excited when meeting new people; has been unpredictable with other dogs and hasn’t met cats yet Teddy would thrive in a home that understands young dogs and can give her structure, patience, and lots of positive guidance. She’s a smart, loving pup who just needs someone to help her continue growing into the amazing companion she’s meant to be.

Meet Sam! This gorgeous 91 lbs, gentle & sweet 4 1/2 years old boy is looking for his forever people to provide endless tummy rubs. He knows basic commands, good on a leash and good in the car.

Story
Sarah Is Available For Adoption! This beautiful girl was pregnant & homeless when she was rescued. Thankfully, she delivered her puppies in a loving foster home. She was an attentive mommy dog to her babies. They've all found their forever homes & she's been spayed.. now it's her turn! Sarah will be a wonderful companion to a lucky someone who adopts her. Sarah is easygoing & very, very sweet. She adores kids & belly rubs. She's fully housetrained & not familiar with being crated. When meeting someone new, she prefers to observe them from a distance at first. Once she feels safe, she's very affectionate. Sometimes, she jumps up when she's happy to greet someone. Her foster family is working on helping her remember not to. Since sudden movements frighten her, older kids would be the best fit. She's a snuggler & she often thinks she's a little lap dog. She likes other dogs but isn't one to initiate play. Sarah appears to be a shepherd mix. She's guestimated to be between 4 & 6 yrs of age & she weighs 70-75 lbs. Her coat is medium length & very soft. She has an adorable smile. She's been spayed, vaccinated & microchipped. For more info about Sarah, please reach out! 615-540-8448 Furever Home Pet Rescue bemyforeverhome.org 🩷PLEASE REMEMBER TO COPY-PASTE-SHARE THIS POST SO WE CAN HELP SARAH FIND THE LOVING HOME SHE DESERVES🩷

Story
A spirited six-and-a-half-year-old Belgian Malinois/Shepherd mix currently living in Richardson, TX, Juniper is a joyful whirlwind of energy wrapped in a tan coat with white and black accents. Juniper is equal parts cuddle queen and squirrel-chasing athlete! Her heart is as big as her bark, whether she’s gently checking on the kids in the house like a protective big sister or sounding the alarm when the mailman dares approach her kingdom, Juniper takes her guardian role seriously. She’s a ball-chasing, toy-destroying, high-energy companion who loves her routines, especially mealtimes. Juniper is house-trained, fully vaccinated, microchipped, and spayed. She also knows all the classics like sit, stay, down, heel, come, and gentle. While Juniper absolutely thrives on love and companionship, she shines brightest as the only pet in a calm, stable home where she is the only pet. Her ideal home includes a fenced yard for daily play and space to explore.
