Story
Ronnie Neutered Male 2 years old 32lbs Breed Guess: Shepherd / Schnauzer HW+ Ronnie is such a gentle, tender boy with the sweetest disposition. He was abandoned with his buddy Galaxy and they were found wandering the streets of rural Alabama. He was so happy to be rescued and has been the smushiest lovebug. He's great with people and other dogs, quiet, lower energy, and just a dream. He's submissive and tender, and will do beautifully in a calmer environment where he can get lots of love and gentle encouragement. Ronnie is being treated for heartworms, which is being taken care of by the shelter.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Meet Sebastian! Sebastian is a handsome young Schnauzer mix with a big heart and even bigger energy! Born around May 6, 2024, and weighing approximately 30 pounds, this lovable boy is ready to start a new chapter after a rough beginning. He was sadly left behind when his family moved away, but thanks to a kind-hearted Good Samaritan, Sebastian was rescued and given a second chance at life. Now he’s looking for an active family that will never leave him behind again. Sebastian is full of playful, puppy energy and thrives on companionship—he wants nothing more than to be near his people at all times. He can be vocal when separated or caged away from the family, simply because he loves being part of the action. Daily exercise, playtime, and mental stimulation will help him shine in his new home. If you're looking for a loyal, energetic companion who will keep you smiling and moving, Sebastian is your guy! His adoption fee is $300. Apply to adopt him at www.adoggie4you.org.   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 $250. 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.December 17, 2025, 4:13 pm
