Story
Huckleberry Finn - or Finn as we call him is an adorable low rider looking for his next adventure with you! Our best guess is that he is a 2 year old Jack Russel Terrier / Basset Hound mix. He is approximately 30 pounds and full of LOVE!!  Finn came to SAAP ready to find his furever home but sadly we discovered that he was heartworm positive. So SAAP stepped in to get him the help and healing that he needed. Fin is ready to put all of that behind him and set out on a mission to find his family!  Finn has been good with all the dogs in his foster home. He ignored the resident cat. His favorite place is with his humans! He loves doing rolly polly’s for belly rubs! We are working on potty training. He had been on steroids since he arrived at SAAP for treatment (which heightens the need to drink and urinate) and so we are now working to reinforce the need to potty outside. If you are looking to add to your family, look no further because this little boy is the absolute best! Apply today to meet this cutie patootie!! May 6, 2025, 12:43 pm

Story
Hello everyone, this lovely girl is Eve she was adopted from scpa in 2018 and she’s been a joy to have around. She loves walks, loves to play, is clingy, talkative, smart, and has never shown aggression to children (for context we had her around the time i was in middle school and my siblings were in elementary). However she has shown aggression for other dogs/cats. unfortunately as time passed we simply had schedules that conflicted with taking care of Eve. She needs a lot of care and i would love if we could find someone with a gated backyard, because she loves being outside for long periods of time, and who can have enough time to show her the love she deserves. If you’d think you’re able to give her a new home to cherish please contact me and we can discuss the transferring process. this is a very hard thing to do for us because we love her dearly so i really want to make sure we find a great new owner.

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 Milani – The Glam Girl of Puppyhood! 🐾💄 12 weeks old • Future Superstar • Current Professional Goofball Introducing Milani — a pocket-sized fashion icon with eyeliner so flawless it looks professionally applied! With her perfectly outlined eyes and adorable speckled nose, she’s clearly rocking that name-brand Milani makeup look… the kind known for 24-hour stay-on power. This little lady wakes up camera-ready and stays that way all day long. But don’t let her runway-ready face fool you — underneath that glamorous exterior is a typical happy, silly, wiggly puppy who takes her job of causing adorable chaos VERY seriously. Her daily schedule includes: • Maximum puppy shenanigans • Butt wiggles that could power a small city • Surprise zoomies at highly inconvenient times • Slobbery kisses • Random toy explosions • Falling asleep in the cutest positions imaginable She’s wonderful with other dogs and kids and, at her young age, should do great with cats too with proper introductions. Basically, she’s a social little butterfly wrapped in a fluffy puppy body. Now, a quick public service announcement: Milani does come equipped with standard puppy features — sharp little teeth and nails. They are very effective. Luckily, they are also TEMPORARY and will improve with training and maturity! Milani is at the perfect age to learn all the important things — manners, routines, and how to grow into an amazing adult dog. Right now she’s just focused on mastering the essentials like “how many toys can fit in my mouth at once?” and “is this a chew toy or a shoe?” Future Size & Breed Guess (based on those adorable photos!): - Looking at her sweet face, compact body, and speckled coat, Milani appears to have some Jack Russell Terrier-type mix vibes going on. - Based on her current age and size, she’s guesstimated to be at the top end of the small-sized adult dog category, probably landing in the 20-25ish pound range when fully grown. In other words — the PERFECT adventure size: big enough for hikes and fun, small enough to still fit on your lap when she decides she’s a baby again. If you’re ready for a lifetime of laughter, love, and puppy kisses (plus a little bit of mischief), Milani is ready to strut right into your heart. ✨ Apply today at haydudeequine.org and let Milani bring her glam, giggles, and puppy sparkle to your home! ✨

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Hi there, my name is JJ!I am a 1 year old Jack Russel Terrier looking for my forever home!  Somehow I ended up as a stray and got sent to a shelter.  The nice folks there called Frankies Furry Friends and I got to go to a foster home with a nice Mom and a foster dog brother!  Once there, I showed my Foster Mom I was house trained.  I get along great with my foster brother....we LOVE to play together.  I went to the vet and got all my vaccines.  Just recently, I got neutered.  That wasn't much fun, but it had to be done so I could go to a wonderful home and be a super good boyNow I am ready to find my furever home.  I have puppy energy, so I need a home where I can play in a fenced yard or go for a couple of walks/day.  I like children, so I would be a good family dog.  I love to run and play plus I am an 18 pound lap dog.  My pictures don't show it, but I have the cutest little stubby tail that wags and wags!!  You've got to see how cute it is.Do I sound like a great addition to your family?  If so, fill out an application and we can meet in person.  Hope to see you soon,JJAdoption fee to help defray vet expenses:  $300Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.February 3, 2026, 6:52 pm

Story
Are you ready to add some fun to your life? HATTIE is here to help. She's a bouncy, playful, sweet little mixed breed girl. Hattie is about 18 months old and fully grown at 30 pounds. Our best guess on breed is some Jack Russell Terrier, Australian Cattle Dog and heaven only knows what else. Hattie has an adorable personality. She's affectionate and outgoing. Hattie is the total package, the only thing she's missing is a tail. We aren't sure where it went but all she has is a little nub. But it's okay, she can still show you how happy she is, tail or no tail! Hattie is best suited to an active home where she will get plenty of exercise. We'd prefer to find her a home with a physically fenced yard. She's great with other dogs and would love to have a playmate. If you'd like to meet Hattie, please fill out a dog adoption application at dreamhouserescue.org. We are happy to arrange a private meet with an approved adopter. You can meet Hattie at our weekly adoption event, Saturday 11:30am-1:30pm (weather permitting, watch our Facebook page for updates). Our fully-vetted adoptable dogs go to prospective homes for a one-week trial period to make sure the dog and home are the right fit before an adoption is finalized. We only adopt dogs into homes where all current pets are spayed/neutered and current on vaccines and heartworm and flea and tick prevention. We do check veterinary references to make sure adopters are compliant with standard veterinary care. Our adoptable dogs are spayed/neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, heartworm tested, dewormed and current on flea and tick and heartworm prevention. Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.January 22, 2026, 6:56 pm
