Story
Junie is an 8-year-old, spayed Pitbull/Retriever mix weighing 56 pounds. She’s currently located in Houston, Texas, but don’t worry—she’s available for out-of-state transport arranged by the rescue once you’re approved to adopt. Junie’s story began on the streets of Houston, where she was found after what was believed to be a dog attack. Scared and alone, her future was uncertain until rescue stepped in and gave her a second chance. Since then, she has blossomed into a resilient, affectionate, and active girl who is more than ready to find her forever family. Junie is a total lovebug who greets every person she meets with kisses and tail wags. She is fully house-trained, crate-trained (though she no longer needs one), and has wonderful leash manners. She rides well in the car, has reliable recall, and loves to run and zoom in open fields. At home, she enjoys curling up on the couch, snuggling close, and sharing her sweet affection. Because of her past, Junie can be cautious around other dogs. With patience, structure, and slow introductions, she has shown she can form deep bonds—even becoming “best friends” with a male dog at her trainer’s home. She can also pass dogs calmly on walks without any issues. If she joins a home with another pup, she’ll thrive with thoughtful, gradual introductions and a little extra guidance. Junie would do best in a home with older children (10+) or kids who understand animal boundaries. We don’t have history of her with cats. At heart, Junie is both playful and soulful—she loves staying active with walks, jogs, or even rollerblading, but is equally happy to be your cuddle companion at the end of the day. Junie is the kind of dog who will change your life. She’s sweet, resilient, loyal, and ready to write her happily-ever-after. Whether as your one-and-only or alongside the right canine companion, Junie will bring love, joy, and adventure into your home. Apply today and give this wonderful girl the forever family she’s been waiting for. https://new.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/PRP/Dog ***Listed BREED and AGE - We are taking our best guess & recommendations from our veterinarian on age, breed and size when fully grown. We rarely know a dog's exact age nor are we able to tell the true or full breed mix of dogs as our information is limited most of the time. *** Interested in applying to adopt her?

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Meet Harmony Border Collie / Lab Mix | ~6 months old This sweet girl is a happy, loving, and big-hearted pup who already shows the instincts of a true caretaker. When she was found alongside two younger puppies, she naturally took on a protective role — gently blocking them from running into the road and keeping them safe. That kind of awareness and responsibility doesn’t come from training — it comes from who she is. She’s a joyful, affectionate girl who warms up quickly once she feels safe. While she can be a little timid at first (understandably so after being abandoned), it doesn’t take long for her true personality to shine through — and when it does, she’s all smiles, tail wags, and love. She does wonderfully with other dogs and has a natural, nurturing presence with younger pups. She enjoys people, seeks affection, and loves being part of the action, but she also has a gentle, thoughtful side that makes her easy to live with. We believe she may be a Border Collie / Lab mix, a combination known for intelligence, loyalty, and big hearts. She’s likely going to be a large adult dog, and with continued love and stability, she will grow into an incredibly devoted companion. This girl would thrive in a home that values connection, kindness, and inclusion — someone who understands that confidence grows with trust. In return, she’ll offer loyalty, protection, and a whole lot of love. If you’re looking for a dog with both heart and soul — one who looks out for others and bonds deeply with her people — this special girl may be the one you’ve been waiting for.   Thank you for checking out our wonderful orphans. We try to post videos for each pet so you can really get to know them.

Story
Meet Bailey! 2.5 years old (estimated DOB January 2023), spayed female, Retriever mix, 50 pounds. She is in a foster home in San Antonio, TEXAS And is able to transport out of State once an adopter is approved. The city you have found her in, is one of the cities our transports make a stop. We can’t say enough good things about this sweet girl. Bailey was a last-minute save from an overcrowded shelter, and she has been nothing short of a treasure ever since. Bailey is kind, gentle, and playful. She enjoys romping with other dogs and gets along beautifully with them—she’s tolerant of all play styles and has a naturally submissive nature. She’s also a great companion on walks, does wonderfully on a leash, and hasn’t had any kennel or indoor accidents. Her moderate energy makes her the perfect balance—she loves to run and play but also adores settling in for some snuggles. In fact, Bailey will let you hug her for as long as you want, gazing up at you with her big, soulful puppy eyes. She hasn’t been officially tested with cats or small children, but based on her gentle and easy-going personality, we can’t imagine her being anything but sweet. Bailey is truly a “keeper”—the kind of dog who brings joy and love wherever she goes. Could she be the one to complete your family?

Story
Duque has been patiently waiting over a year for a family to call his own, and we honestly can’t understand why. This 1.5 years old, 6o-pound, neutered Lab mix is the total package—affectionate, playful, goofy, and absolutely bursting with love. He’s currently in a foster home in HOUSTON, Texas, and can transport out of state to an approved adopter. Duque is one of those dogs who’s never met a stranger. He greets everyone with a wagging tail, bright eyes, and a heart full of love. Whether it’s a neighbor, a new dog, or a friend of a friend, Duque is always ready for pets, kisses, and a cuddle. He’s a loyal, loving companion who’s happiest when he’s near his people. True to his Labrador roots, Duque is full of energy and joy. He plays beautifully with other dogs and would thrive with a playful canine companion. Just a heads-up: his enthusiasm might be too much for calmer or older dogs—he’s a full-throttle fun kind of guy. Duque’s ideal home would be with an active person or family familiar with high-energy breeds. He’ll need daily exercise and enrichment to stay balanced and happy. Apartment life could work only if his person is committed to regular outings like hikes, runs, dog park visits, or doggy daycare. Inside the home, Duque is both crate and house trained. He settles in with a treat and loves to nap after his adventures. He’s also famously vocal at mealtime—expect some enthusiastic “announcements” when dinner’s served, followed by the best food coma snoozes. Training-wise, Duque is smart, eager to please, and responds well to structure. He’s still learning leash manners and can be a bit all over the place, but tools like a slip lead, Gentle Leader, or no-pull harness help a lot. Duque hasn’t lived with cats or kids, though he’s shown curiosity toward cats. We recommend slow, careful introductions if cats are in the home. For families with children, older kids (8+) who are steady on their feet would be best, as he could accidentally knock over younger toddlers during play. Duque is a true lovebug with a big heart and even bigger smile. He’s been waiting far too long to find his forever family—and we just know the right person is out there. If you're looking for a goofy, loyal, cuddly, social pup to be your hiking buddy, adventure pal, and best friend—Duque’s your guy.

Good with dogs, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Buddy is a 6-year-old, 57-lb neutered male Lab mix with a big heart and a gentle, affectionate personality. He was saved from the euthanasia list in San Antonio, TEXAS and is currently being fostered there, but he is available for out-of-state transport arranged by the rescue once matched with an approved adopter. Endearingly called “Air Bud” by his foster, Buddy loves people and forms bonds easily. He’s playful, social, and enjoys toys, pets, and any moment spent with his humans. He’s dog-friendly, but he doesn’t require another dog in the home—as long as he’s given love, attention, and companionship, he thrives. He’s potty trained, crate trained, and knows “sit.” He does great in the car, making him an easy travel buddy. Buddy enjoys walks and hikes, and because he gets excited to explore, he’s currently working on his leash manners. He may pull slightly, but he settles into a comfortable rhythm and loves being outside. His playful side comes out when he’s engaging with toys or adventuring, but indoors he settles well and loves relaxing near his people. We don’t have history with cats or young children, so we recommend a home with kids 13+ who understand dog body language and how to interact respectfully. Buddy is loving, loyal, and ready for his forever home. He’s looking for a calm, patient family who can help him learn to trust and continue to become his best self. He’s the perfect mix of playful and easygoing and would make a wonderful companion for someone ready to give him the love he’s always deserved. Please note our process starts with an application. If we think you might be a good fit, we will reach out to coordinate a phone interview. This is followed by a video call with the foster home. Virtual home visit, personal and vet reference checks are required to complete the process. Transport is included in our adoption donation. ___ Breed and Age Notice: The listed breed and age are our best estimates. In most cases, we do not know a dog’s exact age or full breed mix, as information is often limited. Ready to apply? Complete an adoption application using the link below!
