Story
Meet Conley — a tiny tricolor bundle of personality with a big voice and an even bigger heart. At just 4 months old, this Rat Terrier mix is already showing off his fearless spirit and zest for life. Conley is the kind of pup who dives headfirst into playtime, curiosity leading the way as he explores the world around him. He’s wonderfully vocal—in the most charming way—always ready to “chat” with you about his day or invite you into a game. Conley is active, playful, and incredibly intelligent, making him a fun and engaging companion for someone ready to keep up with his energy and enthusiasm. Beyond his spunky side, Conley is also affectionate and friendly. He loves being around people and thrives on attention, happily soaking up cuddles after a good play session. He gets along well with other dogs, cats, and kids, making him a great addition to a variety of households. Conley is currently working on potty-training and crate-training and will benefit from a patient adopter who can continue guiding him as he learns. With consistency and love, he’s sure to grow into an amazing lifelong companion. If you’re looking for a happy, inquisitive pup who will keep you smiling and on your toes, Conley might just be your perfect match.

Story
Don’t let his “responsible adult” status fool you 😌 Watson is past his teenage years and has matured into a well-mannered gentleman… with a soft spot for the simple things in life. He can be a little nervous meeting new people, but give him a minute and you’ll see what he really wants—your lap. Calm, sweet, and low-key affectionate, he’s currently seeking a long-term friendship—preferably one with patience, kindness, and a reserved seat right next to you. 🐾 Interested in adopting? Please review all adoption requirements listed on our "Adopt" page, including requirements regarding spay/neuter of current pets, regular veterinary care, and home/landlord checks.

Story
Meet your shadow, your hype man, and your personal cuddle bug all rolled into one tiny, wiggly puppy. this little guy decided he had one full-time job: never let you out of his sight. Bathroom? He’s there. Kitchen? Right behind you. Sitting down for two seconds? Boom—he’s already curled up at your feet. But the real magic happens the moment you say his name, he transforms into a full-blown spazoid. No matter how many times you call him, it never gets old—he celebrates you like it’s the best moment of his life by dancing at your feet. He gets along good with other dogs but prefers to have his space unless he goes to them to play, he also is great with cats. Spencer is crate trained & still learning leash manners but almost there. He also is potty trained but will have accidents in the house still. Fun fact: he’ll twist his head at pretty much any sound or word you say. Ready to be shadowed by this cutie? Adopt him!! Local adoption fee is $250(in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $550 (includes transport to your area)
