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 found at haydudeequine.org Gabriel - You are the bridge between what was and what will be, my pathway to a new life! I am with another rescue that is having a family emergency. If interested in adopting me, Hay Dude Rescue will pull me into their rescue to complete my adoption. My name is Gabriel and if you're in search of a handsome lil fella, well, shoot...look no further. I am right around 6 months old and very sweet and playful. That typical puppy that just loves living life. Exploring this big ole world and playing are 2 of my favoritest things with snuggles and eating coming in a close 2nd. I will need to have continued house training. I'm almost there but still need a little more training. I'm a pretty smart lil cookie (it must be so cuz my foster mom tells all the time) and should have the hang of it in no time at all. I come in at around 14lb and shouldn't get a whole lot bigger at my adult weight. But don't you worry none, I'll be the perfect size for giving you all my love and cuddles. And it's also the perfect size for, yep...everything! From neighborhood strolls to some nature trails!! My short coat is going to easy peasy in the grooming department and that means lots of extra time in the 'spoil me rotten' department. Oh my, what could be better?!! Are you in search of a family addition that will be there by your side, a constant in your life thru all your daily going on's? A BFF to share your joys and sorrows? WAIT, stop scrolling, I am that fella!!!

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Introducing Nemo, the handsome male black pug with a heart as big as his affectionate personality! Born around March 27, 2021, Nemo embarked on life's adventures alongside his dear companion, Dory, a lovely female pug. Their journey together took an unexpected turn when they were owner-surrendered due to their previous owner's health concerns. Nemo is the epitome of charm and friendliness. He adores people and has a knack for making everyone he meets feel special. His favorite spot is nestled in your lap, where he can shower you with love and soak up all the attention in return.  He like to take walks, but he gets excited and tends to pull on the leash.  This dashing pug weighs approximately 25.0 pounds, a testament to his hearty appetite for life. While he may have faced a health challenge with a heartworm-positive diagnosis, Nemo is undergoing treatment with ProHeart 12 and a 30-day course of Doxycycline to ensure his well-being. Rest assured, he's in good hands and will be retested in six months to monitor his progress. Nemo's adoption fee of $500 includes his ProHeart heartworm treatment, a small investment in exchange for the boundless love and joy he'll bring to his forever family. While he gets along famously with his sister Dory and most female dogs, Nemo's a bit selective with his male companions, preferring to charm the ladies. He plays well with most males, but occasionally, he may exhibit some alpha tendencies. If you're searching for a devoted companion who will steal your heart with his irresistible charm and unwavering loyalty, Nemo is the perfect match for you. Don't miss the chance to welcome this lovable pug into your life!  You can apply for Nemo at www.adoggie4you.org    Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.May 2, 2024, 10:02 pm

Please fill out an adoption application found at haydudeequine.org Oreo - You are the bridge between what was and what will be, my pathway to a new life! Oreo, a delicious treat good any time of the day, hey hey, that's me! Just twist, lick and dunk along with me for a feel good moment anytime of the day! I have a cookie named just for me...well I haven't been around since 1912 so I guess I was named after the cookie. Either way, we're both sweet but get this, you won't have any guilt indulging in this Oreo!!! I'm only around 10months old and came in with a broken leg. We got me all fixed up and I can now run and jump and chase the other foster pups around!! I will hold that leg up every once in awhile but then I'm off on my next adventure using that leg just fine. I come in at the top end of the small category of 25lbs. I shouldn't get much bigger(taller) but may but on a few filling-out pounds. I'm a great size for any and all your action adventures but also a great size for being your BFF. I'm pretty quiet, have a super sweet disposition and get along great with other dogs. I could learn to tolerate a cat but it would probably be best if my home was cat free. I'm house and crate trained and let me tell you, that's a fantastic bonus for my new family. I also do well on the leash and love going for my daily walks! Do you need a BFF? A constant in your life? A lil cohort up for any crime you want to try? Hey, look no further, I'm just the gal you're looking for!!!!!

Story
Between May 1st and 15th, part of my adoption fee is sponsored! Thanks to the Bissell Pet Foundation's Empty the Shelters campaign, my new family can take me home for $50! Meet Pongo! Pongo is a 2 year old, 33 pound, sweet as can be pup! While his parents are unknown, Pongo resembles a Boston Terrier on stilts and he has the most hilarious ears that stand up and then flop over to the side. They are too cute! Pongo is a higher energy guy that loves to play! While he does well with his furry foster siblings, he does tend to participate in high energy play, which might be off putting to some dogs. He would do very well in a home with another dog that likes to play and isn't intimidated by Pongo being in their face. Pongo is very sweet to all humans, including his four and nine year old human foster siblings. Pongo is well behaved in his crate and is working hard to perfect potty training. His foster family is convinced that he will perfect the potty training with a good schedule! This young guy is looking for his perfect forever family, filled with love, play and lots of walks! If that sounds like you - apply today! Pongo's adoption fee is $275. To adopt this animal, please visit https://www.louieslegacy.org/adopt All of our animals come spayed or neutered, fully up to date on vaccinations, including rabies (if age appropriate) and Bordetella, are microchipped, heartworm negative, current on flea/tick and heartworm prevention, dewormed, and treated for any ailments found upon veterinary examination. The adoption fee covers a portion of these services, and makes it possible for us to continue rescuing animals. For more information on the adoption fees and the adoption process, please complete our adoption application here: https://www.louieslegacy.org/adopt - an application allows us to get to know your family better so we can assess whether the animal you are interested in is a good match for your home. An application does not obligate you to adopt. Please understand that due to the volume of applications some animals receive, we are unable to contact all applicants. If your application is considered a good fit for the animal you are interested in, or even a different pet, a volunteer will give you a call as soon as possible. We are a foster based rescue and do not have a shelter location where animals can be seen during the week. Please see our Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/LouiesLegacy for our weekly adoption album if you are interested in meeting an animal in person. Not all animals attend every adoption event, please check our Facebook page for animal event times and locations before you make a trip to meet a specific animal.
