Story
Pippi is a goofy companion whose world has recently changed. Originally adopted as a puppy, she has found herself back in a shelter environment due to a shift in her previous owner's life circumstances. Being back in this setting is understandably overwhelming for her, and she is initially fearful around people. However, once she feels safe, her true personality emerges, and she connects deeply with the people in her family. When she is comfortable in her element, Pippi thrives on a wide variety of fun activities, including running, going on walks, riding in cars, playing fetch, and even swimming. She is already house trained and crate trained, making her well-prepared for a familiar household routine. Once the energy of play is done, her goofy side easily gives way to her affectionate nature, and she loves nothing more than to settle down and cuddle. This family companion is ready to step into a patient routine where she can feel safe again. Don't wait to meet Pippi.

Story
Meet Max, your future best friend! Max is a 25-lb, 8–9-month-old bundle of sweetness, personality, and goofy puppy charm who is looking for a family to grow up with. He’s the kind of dog who makes you smile just by being around. Max is affectionate, playful, incredibly friendly, and loves his people. He also absolutely loves other dogs and does wonderfully with pups of all sizes. He’s a social little guy who learns so much by watching his furry friends. And for a puppy, Max is doing so well! He’s almost fully potty trained, sleeps peacefully through the night, and is comfortable staying home alone in his cozy space. He’s working on crate training and happily goes in when asked. He’s also learning that being a big kid means practicing a little self-control before earning full house privileges. Max is already discovering how much fun the world can be. He’s getting comfortable on leash and has enjoyed trails, dog parks, and adventures with his people. He’s also wonderful with children and everyone he meets. Most importantly, Max is just a genuinely sweet, easygoing, lovable puppy who wants to be part of a family. He doesn’t need to be perfect, he just needs someone willing to give him a little patience, guidance, and lots of love as he grows into the amazing dog he’s meant to be. If you’re looking for a fun, affectionate, dog-friendly companion who will grow alongside you, Max might be your guy. Could you be the family Max has been waiting for? https://www.centraltexasruffugees.org/copy-of-foster

Smart and trainable. Good with and protective of children and home. Dislikes physical violence of person against person. Needs exercise. Large yard or pasture would be perfect.

Story
We got Bluey from a retired breeder, so he does come with papers. When he was born, his umbilical cord wrapped around his leg and his mother chewed it off unintentionally. That has not slowed him down! He is great with smaller and bigger dogs. He enjoys indoor life but also loves hanging out in the backyard getting some sun. He is skilled at hunting and catching vermin. We do not recommend him for homes with chickens/chicken coop/chicken runs as he will break in. That said, he is very adaptable and sweet, both on an adventure or lounging around. Meet Bluey today!
