Please fill out an adoption application at haydudeequine.org 🌟🐾 Meet Teller — The Fluffy Storyteller of Joy, Adventure, and Good Vibes 🐾🌟 (Approx. 2 Years Old 50lbs • Golden Pyrenees–ish • Full-Time Happiness Ambassador) If dogs could narrate your life like a feel-good movie, Teller would be the one saying, “And then… everything got better.” This gorgeous, golden-white fluffball is approximately 2 years old and 50lbs, endlessly cheerful, and rocking that perfect mix of playful enthusiasm and easygoing calm. Like his brother Penn, Teller was found as a stray in Wimberley, TX, but he clearly missed the memo that he was supposed to be worried about it. Instead, he’s living life like every day is an open invitation to make friends, explore, and wag his way straight into your heart. 🐶 Teller’s 5-Star Resume (References Available): ✅ Happy, bouncy, and well socialized ✅ Excellent with people — assumes everyone loves him (he’s usually right) ✅ Great with other dogs — friendly, playful, and polite ✅ Cats unknown (open to negotiations) ✅ House trained — because he’s a classy gentleman ✅ Loves adventures big and small ✅ Up to date on vaccines & rabies ✅ Neutered and ready for forever Teller would be an absolute dream for an outdoorsy family who wants a dog that’s always up for whatever’s on the agenda — hiking, wandering, road trips, or just hanging out pretending the backyard is a national park. He brings joy to the mundane and excitement to the already fun stuff. He’s affectionate, social, and has that “I belong here” energy that makes him feel like part of the family immediately. The kind of dog who makes strangers smile and friends ask, “Okay… where did you find him? If you’re ready for a loyal companion who brings laughter, love, and fluffy golden happiness into your life… 👉 Apply today at haydudeequine.org — Teller is ready to tell the best story yet: life with you. Yes, his brother, Penn is also looking for his fur-ever home!

WE ARE A TX-BASED RESCUE. THIS DOG IS CURRENTLY LOCATED IN TX AND WILL BE TRANSPORTED UPON ADOPTION. Please fill out an adoption application at haydudeequine.org ☀️🐾 Meet Penn — The Sunshine-Fueled Adventure Buddy with Golden Vibes 🐾☀️ (Approx. 2 Years Old 50lbs • Golden Pyrenees–ish • Certified Good Mood Booster) If happiness had fur and showed up wagging its tail, it would look a whole lot like Penn. This handsome, fluffy fellow is approximately 2 years old and 50lbs, wonderfully easygoing, and brings a bouncy, joyful energy wherever he goes. Think golden retriever optimism mixed with Great Pyrenees calm confidence — basically, the best of both worlds. Penn and his brother Teller were found as strays in Wimberley, TX, but you’d never know it from Penn’s “life is awesome” attitude. He’s friendly, social, and clearly convinced that everyone he meets is just a future friend he hasn’t hugged yet. 🐕 Penn’s Gold-Star Resume: ✅ Happy, playful, and well socialized ✅ Great with people — instant best friend material ✅ Great with other dogs — polite, playful, and social ✅ Cats unknown (he’s open to interviews) ✅ House trained — a true gentleman ✅ Loves adventures, from backyard hangs to big outdoor days ✅ Up to date on vaccines & rabies ✅ Neutered and ready for forever Penn would thrive with an outdoorsy family who wants a dog to share it all — the exciting stuff (hikes! trips! exploring!) and the everyday moments (coffee on the porch, neighborhood walks, dramatic squirrel-watching). He’s the kind of dog who makes even a trip to the mailbox feel like a group activity. He’s playful without being overwhelming, affectionate without being clingy, and just all-around easy to love. The kind of dog who fits right into your life like he’s always been there. If you’re ready for a dog who wakes up every day assuming it’s going to be the best one yet… 👉 Apply today at haydudeequine.org — Penn is ready to bounce his way into your heart. And yes, his brother Teller is also looking for his fur-ever home!

WE ARE A TX-BASED RESCUE. THIS DOG IS CURRENTLY LOCATED IN TX AND WILL BE TRANSPORTED UPON ADOPTION. Please fill out an adoption application at haydudeequine.org Meet Elsa – The Golden-Hearted Girl Who Never Stopped Believing in Love At 8 months old and 48 pounds, Elsa is a beautiful Golden Retriever–Great Pyrenees mix who somehow ended up with all the Golden personality and only the Pyrenees fluff. Sweet, friendly, eager, affectionate—this girl is sunshine in dog form. If Golden Retrievers had a motivational speaker division, Elsa would be the CEO. But her start wasn’t golden at all. Elsa spent her whole puppyhood tied to a tether outside a trailer, watching the world from a spot of dirt she never deserved. No toys. No soft beds. No one to run to. No one to run with. And yet… her heart never quit. When she first came to us, she had a little food aggression around other dogs—understandable when you’ve never known if your next meal was guaranteed. But with time, consistency, and the realization that she’s finally safe, Elsa has blossomed beautifully. She’s now doing wonderfully with her dog friends and has never shown an ounce of aggression toward people. Humans, in her eyes, are made of magic—especially the ones willing to pet her. And oh, does she love to be loved. She leans in, she wiggles, she smiles with her whole face. She gives love like she’s been storing it up for months—because she has. Elsa deserved so much more than what she got in her puppy months, but she refuses to dwell on the past. She’s too busy soaking up cuddles, handing out kisses, and living her best “I’m finally free!” life. Her capacity for forgiveness and joy would put most of us to shame. This girl is resilient, goofy, grateful, and ready. Ready for a family. Ready for a home. Ready to love—and to be loved back. If you’re looking for a sweet, gentle, funny, deeply affectionate companion with a heart big enough to light up your whole house… Elsa is your girl. Apply today at haydududeequine.org, and get ready to welcome a brave, bouncy, golden-hearted miracle into your arms, heart and home!! 🐾
