Story
This is a courtesy post. Hugh is with Pip's Rescue Pack. for more information, please email pipsrescuepack@gmail.com Before anything you should know that the home that Hugh needs must be: • 1–2 adults only • Very low traffic • No kids • An experienced, confident dog owner • Someone patient who will go slow and build trust • Someone who won’t be deterred by potential lunging and can confidently manage it while avoiding situations that may trigger him This is the general information about Hugh: Hugh is a stunning 3-year-old, 120lb neutered male merle Great Dane who turns heads everywhere he goes. He was found as a stray in San Antonio and he was taken to the shelter. He had Demodex mange, so he was put on the euthanasia list. Luckily PPip's Rescue Pack Foster Grouppulled him out of the shelter and he was provided the vet care he needed. Huge was adopted to a family out of state, but unfortunately it did not work out and Huge is now back at his foster home in Pflugerville. Huge is a happy playful goof ball who loves to explore, romp around, and be near his people. He’s dog-friendly and enjoys playing with other pups. There are no issues in his current foster home, but we became aware that Huge can get stressed around people he does not know, mostly men. His lack of trust of men is probably due something that happened to him in the past. It’s obvious that Hugh has been through a lot. His behavior and physical condition are consistent with a history of neglect, and possibly abuse. When going to a new place, he needs time to decompress and feel secure in his environment. Once he gets settled, you get to see the happy, goofy, playful loving dog that he is. If you’re looking for a loyal, playful, and endlessly entertaining companion, Hugh is your guy. He’s a gentle giant with a huge heart, ready to soak up love and return it tenfold. Link to adoption application: https://new.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/PRP/Dog

Breaker is up for adoption in TX, NE and PNW (excluding MA)! Meet Breaker – Your Adventure Buddy in the Making! Breaker is a handsome Great Dane mix a little over a year old who is ready to find an active, committed family to call his own. At around 65 pounds, he’s a wonderful blend of big-dog presence and goofy puppy charm.

He absolutely loves riding in the car and would be thrilled to tag along for hikes, outings, road trips, or any fun day spent exploring with his people. Water is another big favorite—splashing, wading, and cooling off are right up his alley. When playtime rolls around, Breaker is all in. He loves toys of all kinds and enjoys playing with dogs his own size. Most of all, Breaker wants to be with his people. He would happily spend the entire day with his family, whether that means being on the go or just hanging out together.

Meet Duffy, a resilient and charming blue-and-white Terrier mix who is ready to find his team! Despite a challenging start, this goofy and playful guy hasn’t let anything stop him from being a loyal, affectionate companion. Why You'll Love Him: 🏠 Expert House Guest: Duffy is both crate trained and house trained, calm throughout the day and loving nothing more than a good nap and a bully stick. 💪 Brave Survivor: As a Distemper survivor, Duffy has an endearing little twitch that serves as a badge of his strength - it’s most noticeable when he’s relaxing and just adds to his unique charm. 🤝 Loyal Companion: Though he prefers a patient "slow and steady" introduction to new people, once you are in his circle, you are in for life. Duffy is looking for a home with teens and up where he can be spoiled. He thrives on routine and enjoys walks to explore the neighborhood at a gentle pace. If you're looking for a devoted, smart, and loyal partner, look no further than Duffy!

Story
🐾 Meet Clifford — a 109-pound Great Dane gentleman looking for his forever home! 🖤 Clifford is what you’d call a true stud muffin with a heart as big as his paws. At 4 years old, this gentle giant is ready to find the family who will appreciate all the love and personality he has to offer. Clifford enjoys the simple things in life: a shady spot to relax, a cozy place to dig a little hole and keep cool on warm days, tasty high-protein treats, and a nice car ride where he can soak up the air conditioning like the king he is. 🚗❄️ Give him a yummy treat (especially chicken or a favorite chew), and you’ll quickly see how eager he is to please! This handsome boy was found as a stray, and while he has made incredible progress in foster care, he is still learning some important life skills. His foster family has been working with him on his curiosity around cats, and he would do best in a home without feline roommates. He also tends to be more comfortable with female dogs and would need a proper introduction with any male dogs in the home. Despite his size, Clifford is a sweet soul who loves companionship and just wants a place to call his own. He is great in the car, enjoys relaxing, and has the kind of gentle presence that makes you forget just how big he really is. ❤️ If you have room in your heart (and your couch!) for a big, lovable Great Dane, Clifford may be the perfect match. 🐶 4 years old ⚖️ 109 lbs ❤️ Gentle giant 🚗 Great car rider 🍗 Treat motivated 🏡 Looking for his forever family Could Clifford be your new best friend? Apply today and give this big boy the happily-ever-after he deserves! 🐾

Austin, TX

Details
Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Stepping out of the quiet corners and into a brighter spotlight, Shytown is a lovely girl whose name perfectly reflects her tender, introspective nature. Like someone visiting a big, bustling city for the very first time, she can feel a bit overwhelmed by the loud noises and fast pace of the shelter environment. Instead of jumping right into the center of the action, she prefers to navigate her surroundings thoughtfully, taking her time to assess things from a safe distance before making her move. Beneath her initial reserve lies an incredibly sweet, friendly soul who is deeply interested in human attention. When people offer a slow, gentle approach, her hesitation melts away, and she will slowly come right over to hang out directly by your side. She thoroughly enjoys simple moments of connection, happily leaning in to receive comforting butt and ear scratches or stretching out her neck to explore with curious sniffs. This affectionate girl loves to express her gratitude with gentle kisses, and she is highly motivated by tasty treats, showing an extra-special fondness for delicious pieces of cheese. A peaceful sanctuary away from the crowded kennel life is exactly what this gentle spirit needs to build up her confidence and feel completely secure. Finding a quiet routine will allow her to leave her worried shell behind and fully share her loving heart. You can help Shytown find her perfect stride and welcome a devoted companion into your life by reaching out to connect with her today.

Ikat

Anatolian Shepherd Great Pyrenees

Male, 8 yrs 3 mos
Austin, TX
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Ikat is a spunky Anatolian Shepherd/Lab mix with a big personality and an even bigger love for life. He’s the kind of dog who knows how to have fun—whether that’s chasing squirrels with enthusiasm, fetching his favorite ball, splashing around in the water, or stretching out in the sun for a perfect afternoon nap. This handsome guy is as smart as he is playful. Ikat is both house-trained and crate trained, and he comes loaded with an impressive list of tricks: sit pretty, down dog (yes, yogis—he’s got you covered), dab, spin, roll over, drop it, wait, leave it, and even “take it politely” for gentle treat-taking. He loves learning and thrives when he gets to show off just how clever he is. At home, Ikat is a really cool, easy companion who settles in nicely and enjoys being near his people. He would do best in a calm, adult home, as he can feel nervous around children. While he can tolerate other dogs for short periods, Ikat would truly shine as the only pet—where he can soak up all the love, attention, and one-on-one time without any pressure or competition. Ikat is looking for someone who appreciates a dog with personality, intelligence, and a playful spirit. In return, he’ll give you loyalty, laughs, and a best friend who’s always ready for the next adventure—or the next sunny spot in the yard.
