Story
Cleo is a smart, active, hyper, sweet dog. She is 2 years old and a rescue. We sadly need to rehome her due to resource guarding with our other pup, though she has never been aggressive towards other dogs. For that reason she would be best in a single dog household. She loves to be active and needs stimulation. She has never been violent towards her grown ups or young children. We are hoping to find a better life for her than we can provide. She has had basic training and we have her DNA test results.

Story
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 Blitz — The Sweetest Soul Still Waiting 🌟 Male • DOB 12/15/24 • ~55–60 lbs Blitz has been waiting for his forever home since before Christmas… and if anyone deserves to start the new year (and the next, and the next) surrounded by love, it’s this gentle boy. At about a year old and 55–60 lbs, Blitz is a soft-hearted, tender soul who just needs a little extra time to feel safe. He’s not the “life of the party” type — he’s more the “stands quietly beside you and loves you with his whole heart” type. And honestly? That kind of love hits different. Blitz can be a bit shy at first, but once he trusts you, that tail starts wagging like it’s powered by pure happiness. His loyalty runs deep. He bonds closely, loves gently, and will look at you like you hung the moon (even if all you did was hand him a cookie). 💛 Blitz’s Highlights: 🐾 Sweet, shy, and incredibly loyal 🐾 Around 55–60 lbs of gentle giant goodness 🐾 Good with other dogs — would truly thrive with a confident canine buddy 🐾 Neutered, vaccinated, and ready to go 🐾 Appreciates treats, soft voices, and slow, patient affection 🐾 Professional quiet companion Blitz came from an unwanted litter that lingered in rescue far too long. While other pups were heading home, he kept waiting. And waiting. He doesn’t understand why — he just knows he hasn’t found his person yet. He would do best in a patient home that understands shy dogs blossom in their own time. A friendly dog sibling would be a huge plus to help show him that the world isn’t such a scary place. Once he settles in, you’ll see his playful side peek out — a little bounce here, a happy tail swish there. He’s got it in him. He just needs someone to believe in him. Blitz isn’t asking for much. - A soft bed. - A kind voice. - A steady routine. - Maybe a few treats (okay, definitely a few treats). In return, you’ll get quiet loyalty, gentle companionship, and the kind of steady love that makes a house feel like home. He’s been waiting far too long. Let’s not make him wait any longer. 👉 Apply at haydudeequine.org and give Blitz the forever he’s been so patiently hoping for. 💛🐾

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 Elliot, a 6-month-old Labrador mix with a big personality and even bigger zest for life! At around 60 pounds, this handsome boy is growing into a strong, playful companion who’s always ready for his next adventure. Elliot is a water lover through and through—whether it’s splashing around, swimming, or joining you on a river trip, he’s happiest when he can cool off and have fun. With his active nature and enthusiasm for exploring, he’d make an amazing adventure buddy for someone who enjoys hiking, camping, lake days, or just being outdoors. He gets along great with other dogs and absolutely loves having canine friends to wrestle and play with. Toys are another favorite pastime, and he’s always up for a game or anything that keeps him busy. Elliot is also incredibly sweet, smart, and eager to engage with his people. Because he’s still a young puppy with lots of energy, Elliot will thrive in a home ready to keep him active, mentally stimulated, and included in daily life. He loves people of all sizes and should do great with kids, making him a wonderful fit for an active family looking for a fun-loving, affectionate dog to grow up with.
