Story
Seeking a Loving Home for Sweet Maple Maple is a gentle, medium-sized, ~9-month-old mix (approx. 43 lbs), possibly Whippet/Terrier mix. She is extremely sweet, cuddly, and obedient. She is fully potty trained and loves kids and other dogs (she is submissive and non-reactive). Maple is a rescue and is shy, especially around men; she needs patience to bond. A calm, less busy household is ideal, as she has anxiety currently managed with Trazodone. She thrives with one daily walk, running, and a backyard. She loves to play but needs non-chew toys kept out of reach due to puppy chewing. She is highly food motivated. Health Note: A heart murmur was recently noted, but the vet is not concerned and wants to recheck in six months. If you can offer Maple a patient, loving home, please contact us!

Story
Meet Chile Pepper! She is a very adorable and very active young dog who’s just turning a year old. I’m going through a divorce and I’m forced to leave my home. I will likely need to stay with family for a while and Pepper cannot come with me. She’s crate trained and potty trained but unfortunately with the stress and financial cost of the divorce I haven’t been able to properly manage her vet visits or give her adequate exercise. She has a heart of gold but she doesn’t know her own strength sometimes and jumps up on my young children. She’s never shown any type of aggression and does well with other dogs and is familiar with cats. She could be a loving and loyal companion to the right person who wants to invest the proper time into her that she deserves. It’s a sad situation but the only thing that would make it better would be to know she’s found a loving home. No known health conditions, low maintenance coat.

Story
Dandi! Watching this beautiful Great Pyrenees mix (likely with whippet or greyhound) run is watching poetry in motion. She is fast, graceful, & can turn on a dime. This is all done in play or merely for pure joy. Dandi does not have a prey drive. She is fine with cats. Dandi gets along famously with dogs of all sizes. This is fantastic as she must have at least one canine companion to help her manage her very high energy levels. Once her frenetic high spiritedness has been drained, she plays contentedly on her own with toys. She is affectionate, craves attention. Her ideal home: An active family Older children At least one canine companion A fenced yard with room for her to run She is not the type of dog to be crated & left alone for long periods. Attributes: Very high energy Must have at least one canine companion Crate trained Leash trained Cat safe Older children best Local adoption fee is $200 (in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $450 (includes transport to your area)

Story
Cunningham's Bio Meet Cunningham, a distinguished male Greyhound Galgo Español mix born on April 9th, 2021. With his graceful demeanor and elegant appearance, Cunningham is a gentle soul with a heart full of love. Although he may be initially reserved, his loyal and affectionate nature shines through once he feels secure in his environment, making him an ideal companion for those who appreciate the quiet beauty of a Greyhound mix. Personality Traits Cunningham is the epitome of a timid yet loving rescue dog. He may take some time to warm up to new people and surroundings, often preferring the comfort of familiar faces and places. His gentle nature and sensitive spirit make him a thoughtful companion, always observing the world with a curious yet cautious eye. Once Cunningham trusts you, he reveals his affectionate side, seeking out gentle pats and quiet companionship. His loyalty is unwavering, and he forms deep bonds with those who earn his trust. Breed Information: Greyhound Galgo Español Mix The Greyhound Galgo Español mix combines the elegance and speed of two ancient breeds renowned for their grace and agility.

Be prepared for the heartwarming moments when Cunningham begins to reveal his affectionate side and becomes a cherished member of your family. Owner's Responsibilities Regular Veterinary Care Schedule routine check-ups and vaccinations to ensure Cunningham's health and well-being. Balanced Diet Provide a nutritious diet tailored to Cunningham’s age, size, and activity level to keep him fit and energetic.
