Story
King is the sweetest little boy in the world. It breaks my heart to have to rehome him because it is not his fault one bit. King belonged to my mom (and me but she bore the financial responsibilities) who passed away last summer. I have since taken him in and cannot afford his necessary expenses like grooming, shots and insurance. As an elderly dog, King needs a little more care than I can offer him. He get quite anxious at the groomer and typically needs sedation for the service or just an experienced groomer who has the time and patience for him. I’ve tried at him grooming but I’m more afraid we will hurt each other and make things worse. I am also working 2 jobs trying to make ends meet for us causing him to be home all day by himself most days which I don’t want for him. I don’t want to surrender him. I would rather find someone who would like to look after him for the last few years of his life because he still has so much energy, life and love to give! He really is a sweet boy.

Story
Pupcorn is a very gentle natured and quiet dog who enjoys long naps, slow walks that allow him to explore and snuggles. He’s a younger dog but acts very relaxed and would do well with a lesser active owner. Low energy and peaceful. The behavior problem he’s exhibiting is Separation Anxiety. Pupcorn came into my life through Fort Worth animal shelter from a bad situation. He’s made leaps and bounds of improvement since being in my home. No aggressive behavior, and a soft approachable posture. However if I leave him home he becomes extremely upset. Barking and crying, probably due to past neglect. I’m presently trying prescription medication and short term separation therapy to help relieve his stress with positive results.

Story
Meet Teddy ð&#194&#159&#194&#144¾ Teddy is an 11-year-old Shih Tzu and Poodle mix (often called a â&#194&#128&#194&#156Shih-Pooâ&#194&#128&#194&#157) weighing about 20 pounds â&#194&#128&#194&#148 the perfect medium-small size for cuddles on the couch and leisurely strolls around the neighborhood. Donâ&#194&#128&#194&#153t let his age fool you â&#194&#128&#194&#148 this charming gentleman is still wonderfully active and enjoys his daily walks just as much as he loves soaking up attention from his favorite humans. Teddyâ&#194&#128&#194&#153s favorite spot in the house? A comfy place on the couch where he can gaze out the window, keeping an eye on the world. He may have a protective bark, but itâ&#194&#128&#194&#153s all talk â&#194&#128&#194&#148 heâ&#194&#128&#194&#153s completely harmless and just likes to make sure everyone knows heâ&#194&#128&#194&#153s on duty. Heâ&#194&#128&#194&#153s wonderful with children and has a gentle, loving nature. The only thing he asks is that his face not be touched â&#194&#128&#194&#148 he prefers pets and scratches everywhere else. Teddy would do best as the only dog in the home, as heâ&#194&#128&#194&#153s not great with other dogs and prefers having his people all to himself. Teddy is fully potty trained and will politely let you know when he needs to go outside. Heâ&#194&#128&#194&#153s also crate trained and can comfortably relax there for hours at a time. He is up to date on all vaccinations and has no health concerns, making him a happy and healthy companion ready for his next chapter. While Teddy absolutely loves affection and companionship, heâ&#194&#128&#194&#153s also perfectly content spending some quiet time on his own. He would thrive in a home where he can get the love and attention he deserves while still enjoying his independence. If youâ&#194&#128&#194&#153re looking for a loyal, loving 20-pound bundle of affection with the perfect balance of playful energy and cozy couch vibes, Teddy might just be your perfect match. ð&#194&#159&#194&#144¶ð&#194&#159&#194&#146&#194&#155 This pet is participating in the Dallas Pets Alive rehoming program.

Story
Meet Kade!Kade is an adorable 6 year old little pig pen of a guy. He likes being scruffy and left to his own grooming habits. He enjoys morning out by the pool alone and with other pups. His favorite time is feeding time when he bounces around exclaiming he is starving. He’s not a fan of thunder and will ask to be comforted then which in all honesty is one of the few times he allows human contact. He just needs love.To set up a meet and greet or inquire about a dog, please first fill out an application at https://savinghoperescue.org/adopt It doesn`t obligate you, but it is the first step. We don`t get to all of the inquiries but respond to all applications. Thank you for choosing to rescue!
