Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Meet  Mowie , a charming Chihuahua/Terrier mix with a survival story as cool as the storm he escaped!   Born around  August 4, 2024 , and weighing in at a sturdy  15.9 pounds , Mowie is the definition of a "tough guy with a heart of gold." He was discovered hanging around the guard shack at  Randolph AFB  just as a major ice storm was rolling in. The kind-hearted guards had been sharing their lunches with him to keep him going, but they knew he needed a warm hearth to survive the freeze.   Mowie is a truly great boy who is ready to trade base security for home security. He does have one quirky "occupational hazard": he’s a bit of a serial humper when it comes to other dogs, which hasn't always won him friends at the park. However, he was  recently neutered , and we are optimistic that this will help him keep his "enthusiasm" in check as his hormones settle down.   Mowie’s Stats: Birthday:  ~08/04/2024 (approx. 1.5 years old) Weight:  15.9 lbs Background:  Air Force Base veteran & lunch-sharing expert Personality:  Resilient, social, and brave If you’re looking for a loyal companion who has been "cleared for duty," Mowie is your man! You can apply for him at www.adoggie4you.org.  His adoption fee is $300.   This dog is currently in Texas; however, it can be transported to Washington, Portland (Oregon), Minneapolis, Milwaukee, Chicago, Des Moines, Omaha, Cincinnati, Lexington KY or all along the East Coast. If transported, there is an additional transport fee of $225. We do not transport to Rhode Island or Massachusetts due to their regulations.   Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.February 16, 2026, 11:04 am

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Meet Sprout: The Tiny Lightning Bolt! If you’ve ever wondered what would happen if a Yorkie mix stuck his paw in an electric outlet, look no further. Sprout is here to show you exactly what "permanent bedhead" and "infinite energy" look like! Born around July 28, 2024, this 17.8-pound wire-haired wonder isn't just a dog—he’s a fuzzy, four-legged battery that never needs recharging. The Sprout Experience The Energizer Bunny: Sprout doesn't really "walk"—he vibrates from point A to point B. He is constantly on the move and ready for the next adventure, game of fetch, or zoomie session. The Wiggle Worm: Trying to hold Sprout? Good luck! He’s made of 50% Yorkie and 50% cooked spaghetti. He’s a professional squirmer who would much rather be playing than sitting still for a formal portrait. His "Off" Switch: Even the most high-voltage pups need a break. When Sprout finally hits 0%, he knows exactly what to do. He heads straight to his kennel—his ultimate safe spot—to power down for his next round of fun. Is Your Family Sprout-Proof? Sprout is looking for a high-energy "pack" that can keep up with his pace. If you love long walks, active play sessions, and a dog that keeps you on your toes, Sprout is your guy!  If so, you can apply for him at www.adoggie4you.org.  He weighs 17.8 pounds and his adoption fee is $400.
