Meet Vince — the sweet boy whose tail starts wagging the second you glance his way! This loving pup adores snacks, hunting bugs, and chewing on sticks or bones. He’s also a big fan of splashing around and playing in the water. Out of all his siblings, Vince is the best listener, already knowing basic commands like sit, down, and come. Vince is great with kids, walks well on a leash, and is housebroken. If he ever picks up something he’s not supposed to have, he’ll drop it the moment you call his name. He’s the last one to run out the door, always turning back to make sure you’re coming with him — because for Vince, adventures are better together. 🥰 Want a sidekick to follow you everywhere?

Meet Arnold & Gilbert 🤎🤍 These two handsome middle-aged boys were found wandering the streets together, relying on each other for comfort and survival. Now they’re safe with us… but they’re still waiting for their forever family. Arnold is a bit shy and looks to his best buddy Gilbert for reassurance. Gilbert is his confidence boost, his safety blanket, his person in dog form. 🐶❤️🐶 They are a bonded pair who truly deserve a calm, patient home that will give them the time they need to feel safe and loved. And in return? You’ll receive a lifetime of loyalty, companionship, and gentle love. If you’ve been thinking about adopting not one—but TWO—amazing dogs who just want to belong… Arnold & Gilbert are your guys. Local adoption fee is $350 ( in TX, together ❤️) Out of state adoption fee is $550 (includes transport to your area- together)

Old Yeller, is that a new trend? Old stuff made NEW?? Cause I am NOT old, although I am Yeller, a really pretty YELLER COLOR!!! :) I am a Yeller Chesapeake bay retriever/ YELLER lab mix, it is important for my new family to know about the Chesapeake bay breed. We can be very stubborn, smart and independent and I really like to be in charge, so my new family needs to be strong leaders too. I am a handsome bloke, with swirls of yellow and white all through my coat. I am very smart and very sweet. I can from a high kill shelter with no hope- Now I EXUDE hope!! And LOVE!!! I WAS heartworm positive but have already finished the treatment and am NEGATIVE and just stay on prevention for the rest of my life. I am good with other dogs, but really would be best in an only dog home, cause I want all the attention :) I LOVE MY people and I tend to take "control" of my home so have to have a couple of things... 1) STRONG leadership owner, 2) I have to have an owner who will be wiling to not let me meet everyone who visits.. I want to protect my home a little too much... and 3) I have to stay in the San Antonio/TX area so my rescue friends can keep close tabs on me and how i am doing :) I have been running and playing since I am safe, but really am a couch potato. I am a bigger boy and about 65-70#. Look me up, get my number, text or call me OR just APPLY to ADOPT ME!!! I will be waiting by the phone!!! Local adoption fee is $200 (in TX)

This cutie is Silas. He is currently 3 months old. We think they may be a German short haired pointer/pitbull mix , but with rescue it’s a guess! What matters most is that they are adorable and are one the MOST desperate in the entire US based on statistics for where this puppy is from. Shelters in this area are having to euthanize puppies. So, this puppy needs you! If you choose a puppy from us, it saves their life as well as the life of another in its place. Watch Silas playful personality here: https://youtu.be/qAXvYvegGMg?si=530nGqQCn3GwRatM Silas is playful, sweet, curious, and cuddly. He loves to play with his siblings and take lots of naps. Eat, sleep, play, repeat- such is puppy life! We pride ourselves in being able to give you good personality and behavioral information to help ensure this baby is the right fit for you. You are also welcome to do a Facetime call to meet your new baby before signing paperwork! Silas is still very young and will need a family that can commit to training, socialization and all the dedication puppyhood requires. A puppy is discovering new things that shape their personalities with each passing day. Implementing routine, structure, setting boundaries, and proper socialization is key from the start. We require a commitment from adoptive families to crate train their new puppy starting immediately when arriving at their new home, which will help with potty training, energy management, and the overall development of a well-rounded adult dog. You will be guaranteed to get lots of kisses in return from your new best friend! Ready to welcome a new furry friend into your life?
