Story
I am one tall glass of water – handsome and with a great smile. I have lots of energy, so I’d be a great walking partner or jogging buddy. I am friendly but not sure about those fuzzy bundles called cats. If you have a dog, let’s organize a meeting. I can be particular about my roomies. Mostly, I will be a loyal companion and by your side as much as possible.

Story
Abby was found along with her sister abandoned in an apartment complex in SW Houston. She is 2 yrs old and weighs around 60lbs when full grown. She is a little shy first but then warms up quickly, she is house and crate trained but will need more positive reinforcement. She does get along with other dogs and walks well on a leash. She is spayed, current on vaccinations, dewormed, and microchipped. She has a clean bill of health. The adoption fee is $245 and she comes with all her vet records. Please email us at alr.one.2007@gmail.com for an adoption application. https://youtu.be/otkfLDSImIk

She is the kind of dog that doesn’t just wag her tail…she wags her whole body when she sees you! It’s impossible not to smile around her.

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, 1:10 am

Story
Canela came to the shelter alongside her friend Kiwi (A051883) after their owner sadly passed away, and she’s been winning hearts ever since. This medium sized sweetheart is a breeze to handle, walking nicely by your side without pulling on the leash. She already knows how to sit on command and is very treat motivated. Canela has a medium energy level and is perfectly content entertaining herself by sniffing around, but she truly shines when she’s soaking up attention from you. She loves being pet and will gladly give you sweet kisses in return. While toys don’t interest her much, affection is more than enough to keep her happy.She has done well with other dogs in shelter playgroups, though she does have a more dominant personality, so she’d do best paired with a more submissive canine companion. With her gentle nature, affectionate personality, and easygoing charm Canela is ready to be your new best friend!
