I’m Gordo, and I’m built like a 4-slice toaster with one white hair on my tail. I’m a sweet, independent guy who believes life is best lived at a leisurely pace with plenty of snacks, naps, toys, and occasional investigations into what the humans are doing. Speaking of snacks… I am EXTREMELY food motivated. Treats are basically my love language. They are also an excellent negotiation tool when I’m feeling unsure about someone. Sometimes big men make me a little nervous, but give me some time, patience, and a few tasty bribes, and I’ll decide you’re probably okay. I just need to make that decision myself. I’m also very nosy. If something is happening, I need to know about it. What are you doing? Why are you doing it? What’s in that bag? Did you open the refrigerator? I have questions. I LOVE seeing my humans and I get ridiculously excited when they come home. And because I believe every human deserves to experience my extensive toy collection, I like to greet visitors with show-and-tell.  I like other dogs, LOVE kids, and cats? Couldn’t care less. They exist. I exist. We can peacefully coexist in separate tax brackets. When I’m not conducting toy inventory or supervising household activities, I’m actually pretty lazy. I enjoy relaxing, lounging, and generally conserving my energy for the things that matter like meals and greeting people. I do have one very important emotional-support item: my crow toy. Yes, you read that correctly. I have a crow that I suck on to help me settle down and fall asleep. Is it weird? Absolutely. Is it adorable? Also absolutely. Everyone has their thing. One thing I’m still working on is car rides. They make me anxious, so I need someone patient who will help me feel safe and comfortable as I learn that getting into a vehicle does not mean the world is ending. Overall, I’m a sweet, funny, slightly chunky little guy with a BIG personality. I’m independent but love my people, food motivated but not obnoxious about it, dog-friendly, kid-loving, cat-unbothered, toy-obsessed, and professionally certified in being a lovable, furry cinder block. If you’re looking for a dog who will make you laugh every day, keep tabs on everything happening in your house, and proudly present you with his toys like tiny trophies… I might be your guy. ❤️ Just bring treats. And my crow.  Obviously.  Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.

Say hello to Calvin! Mr. Calvin here might be the Calvin to your Hobbes, he's so sweet! Calvin was given up by his finder to our rescue recently but he's in good hands. He instantly warmed up and got along with everyone here as soon as we got him. Calvin is a Beagle mix, he's a bit of a bigger boy with his stubby legs- kind of like a super solid beagle but isn't short. Calvin loves getting attention, he'll bump you with his head so you notice and pay attention to him! He'll need a bit of leash work but is very eager to get to work! That is what people notice most about Calvin, is his eagerness. He will need slow introductions to other people and animals as he can warm up to others slowly sometimes. Local adoption fee is $300(in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $550 (includes transport to your area)

Meet Gayle, a female American Bulldog mix with a stunning apricot and white bicolor coat. Gayle loves spending time with people. She's incredibly friendly and cuddly, always eager to share affection. While Gayle enjoys the company of people, she can be selective with other dogs and might need a patient and experienced owner who can help her navigate her interactions. She's a bit anxious and defensive around other dogs, but with slow exposure and gentle guidance, she has the potential to adjust and become more comfortable over time. We suggest a single dog home for Gayle. If you're an experienced dog owner looking for a loving and energetic companion, Gayle could be the perfect addition to your family. With a little time and patience, she's sure to become a loyal and devoted friend. Come meet Gayle and see if you can be the one to provide her with a forever home filled with love and understanding.
