Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Meet Bandit, a handsome young pug with an adventurous streak and a heart full of love! Born around May 14, 2024, this sweet 18.4-pound boy was found exploring a local subdivision, charming multiple neighbors along the way. While everyone wanted to help the little runaway, Bandit proved himself to be quite the escape artist, cleverly digging out of various yards in his determined quest to find the action! Bandit is a true social butterfly. His main goal in life is to be right where the people are. When he gets loose, he doesn't run away; he rushes towards companionship! He is looking for a secure yard and a family who will give him plenty of attention and keep him close by, satisfying his deep desire to be part of the pack. Bandit has been fully vetted and is now receiving treatment for anaplasmosis, a common tick-borne disease discovered during his initial exam. He is doing great and just needs to complete his 30-day course of medication. He's on the mend and ready for his fresh start. This resilient, people-loving pug is eager to trade his days of solo adventures for a lifetime of cozy cuddles and family fun. If you’re looking for a loyal, friendly companion who promises to keep you entertained and loved, Bandit is eagerly waiting to steal your heart! You can apply for Bandit at www.adoggie4you.org.  His adoption fee is $350.  This dog is currently in Texas; however, it can be transported to Washington, Portland (Oregon), Minneapolis, Milwaukee, Chicago, Des Moines, Omaha, Cincinnati, Lexington KY or all along the East Coast. If transported, there is an additional transport fee of $225. We do not transport to Rhode Island or Massachusetts due to their regulations.

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Meet Gracelyn, an adorable Boston mix from a litter of seven who is just waiting to be your ultimate snuggle bunny! Born on August 30, 2025, this sweet girl weighs 8.0 pounds and is ready to shower you with affection. Gracelyn’s mom is a beautiful pure bred Boston Terrier who found herself on the streets.  We suspect the dad was a poet who told her sweet nothings.  A good Samaritan rescued the mom and fostered her puppies until they were 8 weeks old.   Gracelyn's favorite activity is being close to her people. She would absolutely love to play dress-up and be your pampered baby, thriving on attention and cuddles. She is the perfect companion for someone looking for a loving, devoted lap dog. Like all young puppies, Gracelyn needs someone with the time and patience to continue her training and socialization so she can grow into a confident, well-mannered adult. She is eager to learn and ready to become a cherished member of your family. If this little sweetheart sounds like the perfect addition to your home, her adoption fee is $350.
