Chloe is the sweetest little girl. This little pumpkin, 32 pounds, was at Harris County for weeks. Sadly, nobody saw how adorable she actually is. But fortunately as soon as her final plea came through our emails we knew we had to go get her. And this little one is a love bug! Chloe is a pug mix with a huge heart. She is so incredibly sweet! Chloe is just about 3 years old and gets along great with everyone she meets. Chloe is currently positive for heartworms but Scout’s Honor will cover her treatment. If you are interested in adopting or fostering this little cutie please visit www.scoutshonor.org and complete the proper application. Chloe is ready for all the snuggles she can get!

Story
Meet the cutest boy in town -Dante! How this little guy ended up on the euthanasia list instead of cuddled up in someone’s lap we will never understand. Dante is PRECIOUS! And is loads of fun! He is the happiest little guy but does spook at some things that we are still trying to identify, welders are definitely scary but rightfully so. When he does spook just a little reassurance and the cutie is back. Dante was picked up as a stray by Harris County and fortunately we were able to get him just in time. He is an adorable steel gray pug mix with a sparkly white underbite, about 2 years old, weighs about 35 pounds. He is currently heartworm positive but Scout’s Honor will cover his treatment. If you are interested in fostering or adopting this cutie pie please visit www.scoutshonor.org and complete the appropriate application. Your fun is waiting! October 2, 2026, 7:48 pm

Story
Meet Kringle! Breed: Pug MixGender: MaleAge: AdultSize: Small ([WEIGHT])Good with: Other dogs, people who appreciate a laid-back lifestyle Kringle is just sweet incarnate! Sure, he doesn't look like the bell of the ball, but his happy-go-lucky lifestyle really makes up for it. This charming little Pug mix has figured out that looks aren't everything—it's the attitude and personality that matter, and Kringle has both in spades. He gets along well with other dogs and isn't huge into playing with everyone. Kringle has discovered a better way to spend his time: laying in the yard and sunning himself like a tiny, wrinkly lizard soaking up the good vibes. He's mastered the art of relaxation and has zero interest in high-energy chaos when there's a perfectly good sunny spot available. Kringle is the kind of dog who won't demand constant entertainment or attention. He's content to just BE—existing peacefully, enjoying the warmth of the sun, and radiating that easygoing energy that makes everyone around him relax too. He's perfect for someone who wants a low-key companion who's happy to just hang out and enjoy the simple pleasures in life. If you're looking for a sweet, laid-back companion who gets along with everyone but mostly just wants to chill in the sunshine and live his best relaxed life, Kringle is ready to bring his gentle, happy energy into your home! Ready to welcome Kringle into your life? Contact us to meet this wonderful boy!

Story
Meet Checkers! Breed: Pug x Beagle MixGender: MaleAge: AdultSize: 16.6 lbsGood with: Submissive dogs, adults only, people who respect his boundaries Checkers is sweet, goofy, and full of personality—the perfect combo of Pug charm and Beagle enthusiasm! This little guy loves to play and has that endearing goofball energy that makes everyday life more entertaining. He's happy to romp around and enjoy life, as long as his canine companions are on the more submissive side. Checkers likes to run the show, and he does best with dogs who are okay with that arrangement. Here's where Checkers shows his quirky side: he's NOT a fan of being picked up out of the blue. He's got opinions about personal space and consent, and he'll let you know if you've crossed a line. However, when HE'S ready for cuddles? He'll present his tummy or jump up to signal he's open for business. It's all about communication and respecting his boundaries—once you understand his language, you're golden. Because of his particular preferences, Checkers would be a great companion for an adult-only home with people who understand that quirks are what make a dog interesting. He loves to give love to his people, but not everyone is his people—and that's okay! He's looking for someone who gets that he's a complete package: sweet, playful, a little opinionated, and 100% worth it. If you're ready for a goofy companion who knows what he wants and isn't afraid to tell you, Checkers is your guy! Ready to welcome Checkers into your life? Contact us to meet this wonderful boy!

Story
Bubbs is a 5.5yr old male neutered Fawn pug. He is social, calm (unless he knows you as a fun person), great with babies and young children. He enjoys sitting in the sun and snoozing, eating his treats on/next to my feet, and playing chase around the house. He is up to date on vaccines and just got an allergy shot to help him handle his sensitivity to grass. He comes when he is called and will sit on command. He is crate trained and is okay on a leash. He does not guard his food and is very food motivated. He does not bite but does react with nipping when we cut his nails. He is decently cooperative during baths. He likes being a member of a group and enjoys social settings. Does not interfere with kids playing, but will observe them for any stray food on the ground and to make sure they are okay. He does not bark unless someone new is at the door is something crazy is happening at a neighbors house.

Story
Meet Doobie! Doobie is a 6-year-old bulldog with a delightfully squishy face, a big heart, and enough personality to keep you smiling every single day. She may have a face only a mother could love—but one look into her soulful eyes, and you'll understand why everyone who meets her falls head over heels. Doobie has lived in a loving home with young children and has been a wonderful family companion. Now she's hoping for a fresh start with a family where she can be the one and only pet, soaking up all the love and attention she deserves! This girl already has the house manners down: she's crate-trained, housebroken, rides beautifully in the car, and walks nicely on leash, making her an easy companion whether you're heading out for an adventure or just running errands! When it comes to fun, Doobie has two speeds: full-throttle toy enthusiast and professional napper. She absolutely adores toys...although "adore" might be putting it lightly. Toys tend to have a pretty short life expectancy around her, so durable options are definitely recommended! After she's finished her latest toy demolition project, you'll likely find her stretched out in a sunny spot, happily snoring the afternoon away. If you're looking for a loyal, funny, low-key companion who will make you laugh, keep your feet warm during nap time, and fill your home with bulldog charm (and a few adorable snores), Doobie is ready to be your one and only!
