Story
Hi I`m Teddy! I love attention from people and am really good at leaning in for pets. I have lived with children and did well but preferred to maintain space from the younger ones. I am potty and crate trained and noted to do well when home alone! I have lived with other dogs and mostly did well, but did struggle with the older male dog. I have no experience with cats. Slow introductions and management for space will help me succeed with any potential housemates. I have been available for over a week without a single visit!

Whether it’s walks, playtime in the yard, or even becoming your future jogging partner, she’s ready to keep up! With a little consistency and routine, she has all the potential to be an amazing companion. She absolutely loves people and does great with other dogs when it comes to playtime and socializing. She’s happy, friendly, and eager to be part of whatever you’re doing.She’s only been around kiddos once, but she did well! One of the kids played with her and she was gentle and appropriate. If you’re looking for a fun, affectionate, and active companion who will love you big and keep life exciting, Ellie Mae might just be your girl.Located in Lufkin, Texas, but transport to most states is available for an additional fee of $300.

Story
Zipper is a good dog who deserves a home where she can get the love, attention, and consistency every dog needs. She has been part of our family, and this is a very difficult decision, but I want to be honest about what is best for her. Zipper had a rough start in life. When she was only about 6 weeks old, she was run over and had to have surgery on her back right paw. She still has a scar that runs from that paw up her leg and onto her stomach. That scar is actually how she got her name — Zipper. Because of major life changes, my work schedule, and preparing to sell my home, Zipper is spending too much time alone. That is not fair to her. She deserves a home where she can be included, cared for, and given the attention she needs every day. I am hoping to find Zipper a loving home with someone who has the time and stability to make her feel safe and wanted. She would do best with a person or family who can give her companionship, patience, and a consistent routine.

Story
****FOSTER NEEDED!**** Rescuing Ranger Dog is ready for his furever home! I'm an extroverted guy who loves attention and being petted. I'm good at the groomers and have my basic obedience cues down. I have a sweet, sensitive soul. I love my ball and playing fetch means everything to me. I also enjoy adventures. What's not to love about me? General Socialization Notes: If it were up to me, I'd snuggle up to my family all day every day, or go on an adventures with them. I love car rides. I've learned to be quiet during the day at my foster mom's feet while she works. I used to get sad and anxious when she left, but I've become very familiar with going into my crate while she's gone or snuggling up on the couch until she returns. She also bought me a snuggle puppy stuffed animal that has a 'heartbeat' and I've loved curling up with it in my crate. It's really helped me settle in quickly in my crate! She also crates me at night when she goes to bed. I developed some noise sensitivity but it may have been due to stress. Does Ranger like other animals? I sometimes react to dogs on leashes and behind fences as I pass them, but I've been working really hard over the last month on my training and am getting better about ignoring them and not being as afraid they might pop out from the fence. I do resource guard so I might do best as an only dog. I tried to meet a cat once, but wasn't given ample time and boundaries to get familiar with the cat. If a family is interested in me that has a cat, I'll need time to warm up to it and proper introduction methods to see how I might do. I've been to a barn that houses horses, and was introduced to them while being on leash. I really wasn't interested in them and didn't react as I do with dogs while being on leash. When we ran out in the field where horses were being ridden, I was WAY more interested in a ball and playing fetch. Does Ranger like children? While I haven't been exposed to children, it might be best if children in the house were slightly older (8+). Sometimes I get really excited about toys, and I'm still learning the 'drop it' cue. A late grade school, middle schooler, and high schooler might better understand to be patient with me. Favorite Toys: My favorite activity has been going to a field and retrieving a thrown ball over and over again. Inside the house, I love playing fetch, but I also love playing keep away. It's so much fun! Really any dog toy will get me excited if my new family is willing to throw it for me! Ideal Forever Home: My ideal home would be one with a patient person or family who will love me unconditionally. I'd love a family that I can snuggle up to on the couch with, who will throw a ball or toy for me, and bring me along on their adventures and car rides! I would do best as an only dog. I love going for walks. If my next home has a fence around the yard or farm land, I'd love to spend time in the yard with them as they do yard work or play with me. I have a lot of love to give, and am ready to have a place in my furever home.
