Story
Why spend a weekend with Bernie when you could spend a lifetime? At 7 years old, Bernie is the kind of dog you can trust around the house. He’s calm, housebroken, walks beautifully on leash, and loves getting out for strolls. After which he’s more than happy to settle in and relax by your side. He isn’t destructive when left alone and carries himself like a seasoned gentleman who already knows the rules. Bernie does, however, suffer from "FOMO", Fear of Missing Out. Despite being partially blind, Bernie doesn't want to be left in the background! If there's fun, he wants to be involved. If there's drama, he wants to be involved. He'd gladly join the neighborhood watch, attend cookouts, own a police scanner, and commit to a Days of Our Lives marathon. As for being partially blind? Bernie struggles with dry eyes that will need continued care, including lubricants and cleansing. But don't stress! GIHS medical staff will walk you through the ins and outs of Bernie's eye care and overall health.

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
Introducing Mama Hope... A mama who has known breeds far more than love. We pulled Hope during our shelter pull, and from the moment we saw her, we knew she deserved a chance. Her kennel sat right beside the small yards where we were temp testing dogs all day. Through all the chaos, all the barking, all the dogs coming and going…Hope never reacted once. She simply watched, wagged her tail, and pressed herself so hard against the kennel gate trying to get closer to people that her sweet little face scrunched up even more. And honestly? We are absolute suckers for mama dogs. Especially the ones the world overlooks. Hope is estimated to only be around 2–3 years old, but her body tells the story of being used over and over again. Sadly, mama dogs like Hope are often passed over because they don’t look “perfect” enough anymore. But to us? Hope is beautiful. She is gentle, loving, and so unbelievably grateful for human kindness. This girl wants nothing more than human touch, soft words, and someone to look at her with love. Even at the vet, through everything she’s been through, her tail never stopped wagging. Hope absolutely adores people and gets along wonderfully with other dogs too. During this shelter pull, we saved quite a few bully breed mixes. They are some of the hardest dogs to find homes for, but we refuse to let that stop us from giving them a chance. We love them, and they deserve to be loved too. Hope still needs a few months to heal before she can be spayed, but what she needs most right now is a foster home full of love. If you’ve been thinking about fostering, please consider this sweet mama. We cover supplies and medical care — you just provide the love. We would love nothing more than for Mama Hope to finally learn what it feels like to truly be someone’s baby.  Visit www.scoutshonor.org to learn more about Hope.May 24, 2026, 2:34 pm
