Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Nell was just 3 months old when she, her mom, and two siblings were picked up by animal control in rural Oklahoma. They were picked up from a property where they were in the pasture with goats. Animal control had to use a catch-pole to catch them because the whole little family was showing a fair amount of fear-based aggression. Sadly, the animal control officer made the decision to euthanize one puppy, saying s/he was too aggressive. It's really hard to imagine a 3-month old puppy being so aggressive that an experienced person couldn't have dealt with the issue, but seeing that the animal control officer was willing to put down a puppy, a local person volunteered to foster mom and her remaining two puppies until she could find a rescue to take them in. When we brought them here, the puppies (whom we named Nell and Maynard) were very frightened, and they tried to avoid my attempts to touch them, but they were never aggressive. They simply acted like feral pups who had ZERO experience with humans, other than their very unfortunate interaction with animal control. Their mom (whom we named Violet) was very aggressive in her attempts to protect her puppies, so it surprised us that the mom survived and a puppy was killed by animal control. The mom's aggression made it a challenge to work with the pups, so we separated them, with mom moving into the house and the pups staying in one of our barn kennels. After she was old enough to be spayed, we brought Nell inside the house. Ironically, her mom Violet acted like she didn't know Nell at all, but another one of our Great Pyrenees mix adult females acted as a surrogate mom to her. They shared a giant 54" crate at night and usually went outside for potty breaks together. Nell was making a little bit of progress in learning to trust me, but then we moved her and her brother to another foster home where we hoped they would get  more attention than we could give them and make more progress. Unfortunately, even after two years in that home, we didn't see any real progress, so we moved Nell and Maynard back to Windsong Ranch. They are once again moving in the right direction -- they are learning to walk on a leash and to sleep in a crate.  They are still very skittish, but they will go outside to take care of their potty business and then come back in the house. They observe the other dogs and sometimes engage in play with them. Mostly it seems that Nell and Maynard are learning what it means to be a house dog with people who love them. We try to pet each one every time we walk past them, maybe just a 5-second interaction, but it gets repeated multiple times a day, with the hope being that our persistence and consistency in having positive interactions with them will show Nell and Maynard that we can be trusted, that not all humans are terrible people. We would love to find a foster or adopter for Nell who could help her move to the next level in her journey to being a family pet. We think she would do best in a home with another dog who is confident, who loves their humans, and who would enjoy playing with Nell.  Taking her on a daily leash walk could help improve her skills and increase her confidence. If you have the patience and compassion to love Nell and work with her to overcome her difficult start in life, please complete the application on our website at www.bluebonnetrescue.org.  Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.October 28, 2024, 12:12 pm

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Vader was one of several big white dogs who were hanging around a farm/ranch property in rural Texas, not far from Bluebonnet's home base. There was a dead cow carcass on the property, and the dogs were feeding on that. Passersby took photos and posted on Facebook, asking for help. One intrepid rescuer went out to the site and located the property owners, who said that some of the dogs were theirs, but claimed not to know the others. The rescuer picked up two of the dogs, one of whom seemed really sick. She took the dogs to the local shelter, but she and the staff agreed that the one dog probably needed to see a veterinarian right away, and there wouldn't be one at the shelter until the next day. So she left the healthy dog at the shelter, and took the sick dog to an emergency vet. She named that dog Vader, and made multiple posts looking for help. Rescues all over Texas are filled to the brim, and that is certainly true of Bluebonnet. But we knew that we had the resources to help Vader, even though we already had more dogs than we have foster homes. Vader went into boarding with one of our veterinarians, so he could continue to get the care that was started at the emergency clinic.  After a couple of weeks, he was healthy enough to come to Windsong Ranch. We introduced Vader to our goats, and he is not completely reliable. When he is under the supervision of an experienced LGD, he behaves. But if he's on his own, he tries to play with the goats. He doesn't seem to be trying to harm them, but he's a big dog and his play is too rough for our Nigerian Dwarf goats. So we have moved him into the house, and he seems very happy to be a couch potato. He does still want to go out to the fence line and bark in response to the coyotes who howl in the distance, so he definitely has many of the typical Great Pyrenees guardian instincts. Vader has been going into our chicken yard on a regular basis, and he has been completely safe with our chickens. Keep in mind, though, that we don't leave any dogs with our chickens unsupervised, and we would never place Vader into a home with people who would do that to him. Maybe he would be OK with chickens unsupervised, but he definitely prefers the company of people, so we're pretty sure he would be unhappy if you left him in your yard unattended. Vader gets along well with other dogs, and he has been good with all the people he has met, from children to adults. He has been very patient with our puppy foster Shyla, and basically ignores our little Yorkie.  Vader has been neutered, vaccinated, tested negative for heartworms, and is ready to find his new family.  Submit your application to adopt Vader today!  Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.October 28, 2024, 12:12 pm

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Katy is one of 19 puppies we have rescued this year from a ranch in Central Texas. The puppies were all born in the pasture to working livestock guardian moms. We don't know which dogs are the parents of Katy and her sisters because the puppies were found huddled together with no mom nearby. The ranch has numerous adult Akbash dogs of both sexes, at least one Great Pyrenees male and at least one Anatolian Shepherd male, so puppies could be a mix of any of these. Since the puppies in this litter all have solid white coats -- some short and some fluffy -- we think it's a reasonable guess that the parents are likely to be an Akbash mom and Great Pyrenees dad. Estimated date of birth is 1/11/2025. These puppies were moved out of the pasture at a very young age and have been raised as family pets, NOT as future working livestock guardians. They have been started on crate-training, but they are still learning, so you'll need to be patient and prepared to continue their house/potty-training and leash-training. Katy and her sisters have had their first two rounds of vaccinations and will be going back soon for their rabies vaccination. They can be adopted with our provisional adoption agreement, which requires puppies to be spayed before the adoption is finalized. This is not negotiable as it is required by Texas state law. If you're interested in adopting Katy or another one of our puppies, please submit an application and mention the puppy by name. And in case you're curious, Katy and her siblings are named after waterfalls. Katy Falls are in the Caney Creek Wilderness in the Ouachita National Forest in Arkansas.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Corbin is one of 6 puppies born to Akbash mom Victoria on a ranch in Central Texas, in the middle of the pasture, surrounded by goats and longhorn cattle. There are multiple working livestock guardian dogs on the ranch, so dad to the puppies is likely an Akbash or Great Pyrenees. Since coming to Bluebonnet, Corbin and his siblings have had 3 rounds of vaccinations, along with deworming and monthly preventives. Texas law requires us to spay/neuter all puppies within a certain timeframe, but we can adopt them out on a provisional adoption agreement that is finalized only after the pup has been sterilized. These puppies can be adopted as a family pet/companion, or as future livestock guardians. Either way, they will need appropriate training and supervision, whether that's crate-training and potty-training, or getting them through the stages that even the best LGD puppies go through when they think livestock are playmates. These puppies have NOT been exposed to chickens -- only to goats and cattle. They have had some exposure to our barn cats, but would need proper introductions and supervision in order to live with house cats.
