Story
Ted is a 1-year-old good boy who’s ready to bring some fun into your life! He’s full of energy, personality, and love—and he doesn’t quite realize how big he is, often trying to curl up like a lap dog anyway. Ted would thrive in a home that’s willing to continue working on his obedience skills and help him grow into the best version of himself. He’s done okay in group settings with other dogs, but he can be a bit pushy at times, so we recommend a meet and greet with any resident pups. If you’re looking for a playful, affectionate companion who will keep you smiling, Ted might be your guy 💙

Story
Eve is a 7-year-old Great Dane/Pointer mix whose life changed in the blink of an eye. For years, she lived in a nursing home where she brightened the days of residents and staff alike, offering quiet companionship and comfort to everyone she met. When the facility changed ownership, Eve was suddenly no longer allowed to stay. Thankfully, a kind employee stepped in and brought her home so she wouldn’t be left without a place to go. But due to housing restrictions, they weren’t able to keep her permanently. And so, through no fault of her own, Eve has found herself searching for a new place to call home. Because her world was turned upside down so suddenly, Eve can seem a little aloof or subdued when she first meets new people. She just needs a little time to decide that it’s safe to trust again. Once she does, though, her personality begins to shine. She becomes more expressive, joyful, and affectionate with the people she loves. The fastest way to Eve’s heart is definitely through food—she does the absolute cutest little tippy-taps when she knows a treat is coming! Eve is happiest in a cozy, quiet environment, where she can relax and feel secure. Her favorite place is curled up at her person’s feet, soaking up gentle pets. She’s a big fan of belly rubs and head scratches, and once she’s comfortable, she’ll happily lean in for more. She does well with other dogs and is mostly indifferent to them, content to coexist peacefully as long as her boundaries are respected. Eve also does well with cats and older kids who understand how to give her space and be gentle. Eve is fully potty-trained and crate-trained, and she has lovely house manners (she even knows basic commands). After everything she’s been through, Eve isn’t asking for much—just a quiet, loving home where she can spend her days feeling safe, cherished, and certain that she truly belongs. If you have a soft spot for sweet senior dogs and a peaceful home to share, Eve would love nothing more than to curl up at your feet and be your loyal companion for the rest of her days.

Story
Meet Misty! She's a smart lady who is smart as a whip! She's crate trained, mastered many commands (sit, down, off, mat, enough, go to your room, here, all done- more than most kids :). She loves to run, play fetch and be wherever you are! She's a year and a half old, and was lucky enough to have professional training donated to help her find her forever home. Whoever adopts her will receive at least one free hand off session from her trainer to help her transition go perfectly! Her ideal family would be somewhat active (she needs to run around a yard at least a few times per day). She gets along well with other dogs, but calmer dogs are best. Misty loves to play, but she can get very excited if the other dog is too energetic! She would do well with older children. Younger children and cats would require a lot of supervision. Her trainer thinks she would be a great agility dog, but she is smart enough to do anything you want to train her to do! She will require some active parenting to teach her the rules of your house, because she is so smart, she may try to make her own activities if nothing fun is provided! She's potty trained now (we had some overnight accidents until she started going in her crate at night). She's a great dog with a good head on her shoulders, and she wants to know if you are the one for her! $200 In State Adoption Fee (in Texas) $400 Out of State Fee (includes Transportation to your area) $50 Temporary fuel surcharge.
