Story
Poor Daisy was dumped across the street from her foster moms’ house on Easter Sunday. They watched the car drive away with her chasing behind, but she gave up pretty quickly and started sniffing around to try to figure out where she was. Daisy’s panic was cut short when her foster moms scooped her up and took her to their home.  She was skin and bones, all ribs, hips, and vertebra plainly visible, with scabs and sores all over. She tested positive for heartworm and hookworm. Her foster moms are working closely with their vet to get her healthy for her forever home.  Daisy is a big girl - at 50 lbs emaciated, she’ll likely be 70-80 once she’s filled out. She is estimated to be 4-5 years old.  She quickly fell in love with her foster moms and wants to be as close to them as possible at all times. She’s working on the concept of “personal space” but hasn’t quite grasped it yet.  She gets along well with the resident cats but needs to be leashed around the outside animals (chickens, goats, horses, etc).  She can be dog reactive so needs a home without other dogs and to be walked in areas with low dog traffic.  Because she was starved, she does have some resource guarding issues with food and currently needs to be fed in a crate. She walks amazingly on a loose leash.  She house trained and is working on crate training.  She has not yet been tested with children but with proper introduction, her foster moms expect she would be fine, though she might knock them over trying to get pets. As underweight as she is, she’s still pretty strong!  Daisy loves tug of war and is learning about every other way she can have fun. We’ll continue to update her bio as we get to know her better.  September 29, 2024, 12:22 am

Story
Sully was brought into the vet’s office in Corpus Christi by someone who said they found him wandering. The vet staff quickly became attached.    He’s a huge boy at 151 pounds but is a true gentle giant.    He hasn’t been around other dogs much, but with proper introductions we think he’d be fine.    Sully is currently being treated for heartworms. He is blind and mostly deaf so would do best with an adopter who has experience or who is willing to learn how to properly care for him.  September 29, 2024, 12:22 am

With her love of treats (especially green beans) and her playful spirit, teaching her new tricks will be a joy. She’s also a huge fan of affection—give her pets, ear rubs, and scratches, and you’ll be her best friend forever.Lady loves people of all ages and has the potential to live with other dogs. A meet-and-greet can be arranged at the shelter to see if she’s the perfect fit. She’s also a water lover, so expect some excitement if there’s a chance to splash around!Lady enjoys her walks and is good on a leash.

Story
Meet ARLO! • Male • Great Dane • 1 year old • 117 pounds (on weight gain program) • High energy • Good with dogs • Good in a harness • Appears to be potty trained A beautiful gentle giant, Arlo’s innocence really shines through when you interact with Arlo. His coat may be the color of silver and rain clouds, but this boy is all sunshine. We can tell that he’s yearning to find his person, one that he can follow and love all he wants. Even though he's a very big boy, he can be shy when meeting strangers for the first time. Once he opens up, Arlo loves to hug (despite his size) and shows his goofier, fun-loving self. He’s oblivious that his size can intimidate people and is truly just a puppy at heart. He loves frozen peanut butter treats and just wants to lean on the people he trusts. For those with ample space and even more love to give, Arlo promises to fill every corner of your home - and your heart - with a boundless supply of unconditional adoration, proving that sometimes the biggest packages contain the sweetest surprises. Arlo is neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, and heartworm negative. For more information about Arlo or our shelter please call us at (830) 693-0569 or visit our website at highlandlakescaninerescue.org If you would like to schedule a meet and greet with Arlo or any of our dogs, please fill out an application at https://www.highlandlakescaninerescue.org/adopt-a-dog/how-to-adopt/

Moose, he literally lives up to his name!! He is a big boy that really doesn't know he's like a freight train! Due to his size, we would like him to go to a large breed knowledge family with no small dogs. He doesn't hurt them, but his feet are bigger than they are and can't seem to control his legs sometimes!!

Hi there! My name is Diesel and I am a male adult dog with lots of love to give. I am a very loyal companion who will stick by your side no matter what. I am a gentle and calm dog, but I love to play and run around when I have the chance. I walk great on a leash for a 1.5yr old boy and I am an intelligent dog who is always curious and ready to learn. I am the ideal companion for someone who is looking for a best friend who will provide a lot of love in their life. I am dog friendly, but scared right now because my family left me at the shelter. If you think we would be a good match, please come to the shelter to meet me today!

Sitter needed: 10/25/24 - 10/27/24 Meet Pumbaa, the gentle and loving pup at who's ready to find his forever home! Pumbaa is an easy-going dog who walks well on leash and enjoys his daily strolls. He's not much of a puller and makes walks a breeze. Although we're not sure about his experience with crates, he seems to be comfortable in them. This smart boy knows some basic obedience skills and is always eager to go on walks. He's so polite that he even sits patiently before you open the door to his kennel. Pumbaa is a friendly dog who loves meeting new people. He's very affectionate and enjoys getting scratches and cuddles from his human friends. He'll gladly sit next to you for as long as you're willing to pet him. While we're not certain about his favorite activities, Pumbaa seems to enjoy stopping to sniff around during walks. He's not overly active but would likely appreciate a medium-active family who can give him plenty of love and attention. One thing's for sure, Pumbaa is an absolute angel who will bring joy and happiness to any home lucky enough to adopt him. If you're looking for a loving companion, Pumbaa is your guy!
