Story
Maple is around 3 years old. She is very sweet and loving. Loves tennis balls and chasing things around our yard. She gets along with all humans and most dogs. She has recently become aggressive towards her other female housemate. The other dog is not handling it well and is becoming very withdrawn. For this reason, we think it’d be best we rehome Maple. She loves to run, is great on a leash, and is an all around nice dog.

Story
PLEASE NOTE! WE ARE A TEXAS-BASED RESCUE. THIS DOG IS CURRENTLY IN TEXAS AND WILL BE TRANSPORTED TO YOUR STATE ONCE ADOPTED. Our adoption application can be found at haydudeequine.org. Meet Smee! Ahoy! I'm Smee, and just like my namesake from Peter Pan, I'm on the hunt for my very own Captain Hook... except I'm hoping mine comes with treats, belly rubs, and a forever home! Born in November 2025 and weighing around 70 pounds, I'm a big, goofy puppy with the sweetest heart. People say I look like a little cow—not just because of my adorable black-and-white markings, but because I'm built like one too! My size might be impressive, but I'm really just a gentle giant who wants to be close to my people. If there's one thing you should know about me, it's that I LOVE water. Kiddie pools, stock tanks, puddles—you name it! My favorite pastime is climbing into a water tank, sinking down until I'm completely submerged, and leaving just my eyes above the surface like a little alligator. It's guaranteed to make you laugh. When I'm not making a splash, you'll usually find me carrying around a toy or convincing someone to play a game of tug-of-war. I get along great with other dogs and love having canine friends, but if you ask me what I love most, the answer is easy: people. I'm the definition of a loyal companion. I'll happily rest my big head on your shoulder or in your lap, soaking up all the love you're willing to give. Even though I'm still a puppy (which means I have the occasional silly puppy moment), I'm surprisingly laid-back and easygoing. I'm also working hard on my potty training, and I'm doing a fantastic job! I'm eager to learn and even more eager to make my family proud. If you're looking for a happy, affectionate, water-loving best friend with a heart as big as he is, then I just might be your perfect first mate. All I need now is a family to call my own. Could you be the Captain Hook I've been searching for?

Story
Meet Edric — but you can call him Eddie! Edric may be his official name, but “Eddie” just seems to fit him. He is one ridiculously happy puppy—a wiggly, enthusiastic little guy who approaches pretty much everything in life like it might be the BEST THING EVER. Eddie is a nonstop mover with a tail and body that seem to have only one setting: WIGGLE. Pet him? Wiggles. Give him attention? More wiggles. Bring out a toy? Prepare yourself. He gets ridiculously excited about his toys and loves grabbing a favorite stuffie and carrying it around while doing victory zoomies. Personal space is also not really Eddie's thing. He's an affectionate little goofball who thinks love means getting as close to you as physically possible—which may include putting his paws in your mouth or attempting to stick his tongue directly up your nose. Subtle? No. Adorable? Absolutely. He LOVES other dogs and currently shares his space with two other puppies. Eddie is often the one instigating the wrestling match—and then cheerleading it once everyone gets going. He's playful and social, but he's also been respectful of the cats in his foster home. And if there's a kiddie pool around, Eddie has developed his own preferred technique: dip the toes, then immediately run through the dirt. Why get completely wet when you can simply make muddy little feet? Eddie is currently working on potty training and learning all the things a young puppy needs to know. He's looking for a family ready to keep teaching him, laughing with him, and giving him plenty of opportunities to play, explore, and zoom. If you're looking for a happy, affectionate, slightly ridiculous little sidekick who will keep you smiling—and has absolutely no respect for the boundaries of your nostrils—Eddie might just be your guy.
