Story
Lucky to Love Clover They say three-leaf clovers are a sign of simple, everyday luck… and our Clover is living proof that sometimes three is pure magic. This fun-sized tripod may only have three legs, but she doesn’t let that slow her down one bit. Clover zooms, plays, and prances through life with the biggest smile and the brightest spirit. She’s proof that you don’t need four leaves — or four legs — to be extraordinary.Clover’s favorite things? Belly rubs that last forever, cozy cuddles on the couch, and sticking close to her people. She loves being part of the action and will happily be your little shadow, soaking up attention and giving it right back.All Clover needs now is her lucky charm — a family to call her own. And honestly? The real luck will belong to whoever gets to love this sweet girl every day. Adopt Clover and add a little extra luck to your life.History: Clover was originally adopted from OHAR in 2022, and for a while, she was living her happily-ever-after. When her family welcomed a new baby, Clover welcomed that tiny human with her whole heart. True to her loyal nature, she became very protective. She adored her little sibling so much that she simply couldn’t understand why other people needed to get so close. In Clover’s mind, she was just doing her job — keeping her precious baby safe from all those “suspicious” hands reaching in.Unfortunately, that protective instinct became a little too much for the growing family’s needs. And so, through no fault of her own, sweet Clover made her way back to OHAR.She didn’t lose her loving heart — she just needs the right environment where she can thrive and feel secure. Clover is still the same cuddly, belly-rub-loving, fun-sized tripod who wants nothing more than to be close to her people.Now she’s waiting for her next lucky chapter… one that understands her loyalty is one of her very best qualities.Adoption Process: After your application is approved, a home visit is schedule. We will bring the pet to you and help with introductions to your current pet(s). You will then have a week with the pet to ensure they are the right fit for your home. At the end of the week, you finalize the adoption and the pet is officially part of your family! Learn more at ohar.org/adoptionprocess

Story
Bella found herself in a shelter when her previous family could no longer care for her, a confusing time for such a sweet girl. But she didn`t let that dampen her spirit. She quickly became known for her boundless energy, her hilarious, oversized ears, and the way she can turn any ordinary day into an adventure. She`s quirky, yes, but those quirks are what make her so special and full of love. Bella is looking for a home where she can be herself. She loves to run, play, and then snuggle up for a well-deserved nap. She`s a smart cookie who would benefit from continued training and someone who can appreciate her bright spark. With a little structure and a lot of love, Bella will truly bloom into the most amazing companion. If you`re looking for an affectionate, well-mannered, and playful dog who is ready for a second chance at a forever home, Bella might just be your soul dog. Come meet this wonderful, playful soul and see if you can give her the loving life she deserves.

Story
Gidget not only has spots she also has freckles! Mix that in with beautiful coloring and alluring chocolate colored eyes and you have one beautiful girl! Besides that she’s got an easy-going, laid-back, winsome personality. Gidget is an 11 month old 40lb Catahoula Leopard dog that arrived at the Mesquite Animal Shelter on 6/13 as a stray. When I first took her to the yard she explored and did her business. She’s so smart that she immediately found a soft bed and sat herself down on it. But after a few minutes, she got curious and wanted to explore. She stayed close and kept looking up at me with her captivating eyes. She backed up when I asked her to sit trying to please. She took the treat I offered gently. She’s calm, gentle, sweet, affectionate, attentive, and well mannered. She did have a strong pull on the leash. She should do well with children because she’s so well behaved and loving. If she could have one wish granted it would be that her new family would include her in family outings and let her hang out with them in the house.

Story
Meet Knox, a stunning 3-year-old Catahoula/Pit mix with soulful blue eyes and a literal heart on his sleeve (well, his back!).Knox was recently returned to our rescue through no fault of his own, and we are urgently looking for a new forever home or a temporary foster family to take him in. This boy is the definition of a "good dog" and just needs one specific thing: a cat-free environment.  * Family Favorite: He has lived with young children and is incredibly gentle, patient, and sweet with them. * Social Butterfly: He loves meeting new people and is very dog-friendly! He’d love a dog sibling to play with. * The Best Roommate: Knox is both crate trained and house trained. * Playful & Affectionate: He is a big fan of toys and will never turn down a good snuggle session. * Unique Beauty: Between his striking blue eyes and the perfect brown heart-shaped spot on his back, he is truly one of a kind. * No Cats: Knox has a high prey drive regarding felines, so he must go to a home only with other dogs. * Location: Currently in Dallas, TX, but out-of-state transport is available for the perfect match! Hannah’s Southern Paws Rescue is a 501c3 non-profit. Please share this post to help Knox find the heart-shaped home he deserves!  ##1677591##
