Story

Meet Pepper, a spirited and loving female dog who's ready to add a dash of spice to your life! This brave and curious girl is always up for an adventure, whether it's exploring the great outdoors or zooming around the yard with her crazy happy zoomies. But don't be fooled by her playful nature. Pepper is also an intelligent and affectionate companion, loyal to those she loves and always ready for a good cuddle. Pepper, or Pihu, as she's affectionately known, is a true judge of character. Quiet, hardly barks unless she feels the need and has always been respectful to property, not destructive. She may seem shy at first, but once she feels safe, she'll open up and show you her playful side, showering you with kisses and following you wherever you go. She's the perfect mix of independence and devotion, content to entertain herself with a bone or toy but always happy to be by your side. A medium energy gal, who recently showed how affectionate she is with a new baby in the home.. She was recently tested in home with a new visitor to see her reaction toward visitor while baby was near. She passed with flying colors, no aggression or resource guarding of the baby. Pepper loves her daily walks and is always up for a game of fetch. She's a quick learner and a total professional when left alone, but be prepared for an enthusiastic greeting when you return - she just can't contain her excitement! Pepper is dog selective, good with smaller, low-key or submissive dogs (after slow, proper introduction). She's adaptable and easy-going, fitting into either a quiet or active household as long as she gets her daily dose of play and snuggles. She's a low-maintenance dream, as any 2.5 year old, she knows commands and will mostly follow them but ongoing training is always recommended. Fill out an application today and take the first step towards welcoming this wonderful girl into your heart and home. From her Foster in Austin, TX: She is a lovely little girl who deserves a lovely family. Available for Adoption in the Austin, Texas area.

Story

Howdy, y'all! It's me, Diesel, the ultimate Texas gentle dog. I'm a big ol' mix of Pit Bull Terrier, German Shepard, and Dumbo ears, serving looks and love in the Austin area. Let's get down to business: I'm a playful pup with a heart as big as this beautiful state, and I'm always up for a good time. My idea of a perfect day involves outdoor adventures, especially if there's water involved. I'm talkin' swimmin', splashin', and maybe even a little boat ride if you're feelin' fancy. But don't let my rugged good looks fool ya, I'm a sensitive soul who loves nothin' more than a good snuggle at the end of the day. In my two and 1/2 years on this earth, I've learned a thing or two. I'm crate trained, great on a leash, and I have excellent recall. I'm also a pro at giving kisses and catchin' balls. Oh, and did I mention I'm dog-friendly? I just love makin' new friends, both human and canine. I'm a people person, err, dog, and get along swimmingly with older kids, too. So, if you're lookin' for a loyal companion to join you on all your Texas-sized adventures, I'm your hound. I promise to keep you entertained, show you all the best swim. Currently being fostered in Austin Texas.

Tuna II

Boxer

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Story

9/10/2026 Tuna II is an owner surrender looking for a new home. Hi! My name is Tuna II! I am a beautiful 1.5 year old white boxer girl that is an owner surrender due to not getting along with the other dog in the home and for everyone's safety, I need to be the only dog in the home. I am described as active, protective, and nervous! I currently live with kids that are ages 18 and up. I have had exposure to cats and will intensely watch them, so it's best if I live in a cat free home. I am still young and will need continuing assistance with house training and crate training in my forever home. I eat Fresh Pet and Pure Balance dog food and sleep with the humans in their bed at night. If the humans must be away and I am left alone, I will get into things I shouldn't. I am afraid of things that are unfamiliar to me. When outside I do not attempt to jump fences/gates but I am curious what is under the grass and will dig to find out. Some of my favorite things are riding in the car, balls, toy ropes, and pretty much everything! If you think I would make a great addition to your family and are patient and willing to help me learn to be the best girl, contact the rescue today and give them my name because I am waiting to meet you! ##2839125##
