🐾 Loving Home Needed for Rimmy 🐾We are looking for a loving, responsible home for our sweet girl Rimmy. ❤️Rimmy is approximately 4 years old and is a mixed breed with American Bulldog. She is house trained, up to date on her rabies vaccination, and great with kids.Rimmy has a calm, independent personality. She enjoys affection but also likes having her own space and spending time by herself, so she would do well with a family who understands and respects that.This is a very difficult decision for our family. With our growing family, kids, work, and busy schedules, we simply aren’t able to give Rimmy the time and attention she deserves. Our goal is to find her a safe, loving, permanent home where she can be well cared for and loved.🐶 About Rimmy:* Approximately 4 years old* American Bulldog mix* House trained* Rabies vaccination up to date* Great with children* Independent and enjoys her personal space* Looking for a loving, stable forever home

Story
Location: The Woodlands, TXMeet Waffles! Waffles is a very sweet boy, plain and simple. We estimate he’s around two years old and already showing what a wonderful companion he’ll make. Waffles came into our rescue after being found abandoned in a crate outside of a PetSmart in Spring. Despite this rough start, he has remained gentle, trusting, and full of love. During his time at a boarding facility, Waffles has been an absolute gentleman. He’s quick to learn, eager to please, and clearly enjoys positive attention and guidance. His sweet nature and willingness to learn make him a joy to be around and a great candidate for continued training. Waffles is ready for a fresh start with a family who will give him the love and stability he deserves. If you’re looking for a young, affectionate pup with a heart of gold, Waffles might just be your perfect match. Waffles gets along well with other dogs. Contact Crystal today!

Story
Attention all Bulldog lovers! This adorable Bulldog named Sweet Tart is in search of her forever home. She may be a bit bossy, but she's also housebroken and crate trained (although she's not a fan of the crate), she is also great for baths and getting her nails trimmed. One thing is she absolutely adores is food - she can't get enough of it! However, she would do best in a home without small children, and if there are other furry friends, she'll need to be fed separately. While she may not fully grasp the concept of playing with other dogs, she loves to snuggle up to them. Sweet Tart is known around the house for her slobbery kisses and will gladly climb onto your lap with her bulky body. With her stubborn and delightfully demanding bulldog personality, she's not afraid to bark and demand her meals when she thinks they're overdue. Her tongue is always hanging out, adding to her irresistibly cute appearance, especially when combined with her adorable underbite. And if that's not enough, she also comes with the bonus of mystery allergies-thanks to some Benadryl it is easily controlled. This sweet old gal has come a long way, and we're thrilled to see her find the loving home she deserves after all this time. If you are interested in adopting Sweet Tart, please fill out an application today!March 9, 2026, 11:02 pm

Story
Location: The Woodlands, TXBear aka Xander Bear is a very sweet, two-year-old bully breed who truly just wants to be a loved household companion. He is house-trained, adores people (including kids!), and is a complete gentleman both in the car and on walks. Bear isn’t looking for trouble—he’s looking for a family. Bear originally came into our rescue as a puppy after suffering severe injuries that appeared to be the result of a dog attack. Despite this traumatic start, he has grown into a gentle, loving boy. He spent over a year with a wonderful family, but was sadly returned when their older dog decided he no longer got along with Bear. Through no fault of his own, Bear found himself back in rescue and is now hoping for a second chance. If you have room in your home—and your heart—please consider adopting this sweet, resilient boy. Bear has so much love to give and is ready to be someone’s loyal companion. Contact Crystal today!

Story
🐾💦 XENA: PART EXPLORER. PART WATER DOG. ALL HEART. 💦🐾 Meet Xena, a 3–4-year-old, 45-pound brindle-and-white beauty who might be a Pittie with a little Boxer mixed in. Whatever her breed combination, this girl is something special! ❤️ Xena is a longtime volunteer favorite who has been overlooked for far too long. And we honestly can't figure out why! If you're looking for an adventure buddy, XENA IS YOUR GIRL! Today's walk turned into an unexpected workout when Xena decided we should incorporate some sprint intervals. 😂 And she could NOT have been happier! We think she'd make a fantastic companion for someone who enjoys jogging, running or getting outside for some exercise. But perhaps her real name should be Dora the Explorer, because this girl believes EVERY hill, tree, puddle and interesting smell deserves a thorough investigation. And the water? Oh, the water. 💦 Xena doesn't just walk through puddles. She joyfully PLOWS through them! 😂 She's also a total river girl who absolutely LOVES to swim. Here's what else makes Xena so special: 🏃‍♀️ Adventure-ready! Loves exploring and would make a fun running or hiking companion. 💦 Water enthusiast! Deep puddles, rivers, swimming — she's ALL IN. 💕 Sweet and affectionate! Gives the gentlest little kisses. 🚗 Great car rider! Ready to accompany you on your next adventure. 🌱 Professional grass roller! Sometimes you've just gotta stop, drop and roll. 🐶 Does well around other dogs on walks — she even recently helped a very shy dog gain some confidence! While she's comfortable with canine company out and about, we think she'd likely prefer to be your one-and-only at home. ❤️ Loves simply being out of the kennel, taking in the sights, smells and everything the world has to offer. Xena has patiently watched other dogs come into the shelter and leave with their new families. Meanwhile, this wonderful girl is still waiting. Waiting for someone to notice her. Waiting for someone to choose HER. 🥹 She's fun, affectionate, adventurous and has so much love and personality to share. She doesn't need anything fancy — just someone who will take her places, let her explore, appreciate her gentle kisses and give her a home to come back to. Xena has spent enough time watching everyone else's happy endings. It's time for hers. ❤️ 📍 Hopewell Animal Services 🕙 Tuesday–Saturday | 10 AM–2 PM ❤️ Available for adoption or rescue transfer! Come meet Xena. Take her for a walk (or a run!). Just don't expect her to walk around the puddles! 😂💦🐾

Story
🎳🐾 CHEVY: BUILT LIKE A BOWLING BALL, BOUNCES LIKE A PUPPY. 😂🐾 Meet Chevy, a 2-year-old, 45-pound white Bully mix who can best be described as a bowling ball with legs. 😂 He’s squatty. He’s snorty. He’s goofy. He’s built like a tank. And somehow, this hefty little dude can HOP WITH JOY when he’s excited. 😂 Chevy is a happy, confident, bouncy boy who approaches life with enthusiasm—and maybe a slightly questionable attention span. He’s a bit of a spazz, but he means well. ❤️ And when the pets and scratches start? Suddenly that wiggly bowling ball becomes perfectly still while his tail turns into a helicopter. 🚁😂 He LOVES attention and has even climbed onto the bench, settled right into a volunteer’s lap, and happily soaked up the affection. 🎾 Fetch? Absolutely. Chevy loves a ball and is perfectly capable of entertaining himself with one. 🧸 Random object on the ground that vaguely resembles a toy? Also his now. 😂 On walks, Chevy enjoys picking up interesting things he thinks might qualify. 🐾 Knows sit 🦴 Takes treats very gently 🎾 Loves balls and fetch 💕 Loves scratches, pets & lap time 🚁 Features a premium helicopter tail 😂 Short attention span, BIG personality Chevy has also shown good body language around other dogs, both through the fence and while walking on leash. He seems to enjoy canine company and may prefer a lower-energy companion who can balance out his particular brand of chaos. 😂 As always, meet-and-greets are required. Chevy is basically 45 pounds of muscle, snorts, enthusiasm, affection, and pure entertainment packed onto four surprisingly spring-loaded little legs. If you’ve always wanted your very own bowling ball that plays fetch, sits in your lap, and comes equipped with a helicopter tail, Chevy is waiting. 🎳🚁🐾❤️ 📍 Hopewell Animal Services 🕒 Tuesday–Saturday • 10 AM–2 PM
