Story
Marfa is 7 month old girly that found herself all alone in a rural shelter just outside of Austin! Once we saw that beautiful smile and gorgeous fawn coat, we knew we had to bring her into our rescue! From the moment she was saved, she immediately stole the hearts of our volunteers and veterinary staff. She’s described as a snuggly love bug, who is calm at quiet times, and ready to zoom & be silly when presented a toy! And at just 30lbs and mostly grown, we think she may stay a pocket sized pittie. She’s ready for a home where she can learn and grow into an amazing and devoted companion!❤️Apply to adopt today at https://love-a-bull.org/adopt/adoption-application/ ❤️

Story
If you’ve ever watched Severance and thought, “Wow, that work/life balance seems… dark,” then meet Helly - she’s proof that life after labor (in her case, a heartbreaking stint as a breeding dog) can be joyful, silly, and full of chew toys.This resilient, toy-obsessed pittie was dumped at a Houston shelter, but Helly had other plans. One hug around a volunteer’s leg later, and she had the internet rooting for her.Helly is now decompressing and thriving in her post-corporate (okay, post-shelter) era. Full of zoomies, snuggles, and an undying love for her chew stash, she’s the ideal sidekick for anyone looking to trade grind culture for play breaks and belly laughs.Helly is not reactive to other dogs, so she does great seeing them on walks or out and about! She is fearful when they approach her, though, so she would do best not living with another dog for now!❤️Apply to adopt today at https://love-a-bull.org/adopt/adoption-application/ ❤️

Story
We’re looking for a loving new home for our sweet 3-year-old female pitty named Goose (she will also respond to Lucy). We got Goose a few months back from the shelter and unfortunately, life plans have changed in a big way. This gentle girl is incredibly affectionate and gets along wonderfully with people and other dogs. She loves cuddles, companionship, and playing. While she’s extremely tolerant (the groomers always rave about how good she is) she would do best in a home without very young children who may be overly grabby and cats or other small animals that aren’t dogs. She would also benefit most from having a female owner, she does have a subtle fear towards men due to her past before the shelter. We would love for her to go to someone with a backyard and ability to provide her with plenty of exercise. We want to make sure she’s going to a safe and caring family, so we’ll be asking to do a meet up beforehand. We will include all her doggy items in the rehoming fee.

Meet Thor A Loving Companion Looking for a Patient Home. Thor is a 5-year-old white Pitbull mix with a heart full of love, just waiting to find the right home. This sweet pup is affectionate, loyal, and thrives in a calm environment. However, Thor has a fear reaction towards men and will need a patient, understanding adopter willing to help him feel safe and build trust at his own pace. Thor needs a female-only or very patient household, someone experienced with shy or fearful dogs, positive reinforcement training to build confidence. Once comfortable, Thor is incredibly loving, playful, and eager to bond. He is very food motivated and learns quickly! He does well with other dogs/cats and would thrive with someone who understands his needs. If you have the time and heart to help this special pup feel secure, he will reward you with endless love and loyalty. Located in Round Rock. We would love to meet you if you think you could be the perfect match!

Story
Lulu is a sweet girl who wants nothing more than to be loved, and to love her people. She loves all people but she will bond very closely to one person and is extremely loyal and velcro like. She will follow you room to room and wants to be your buddy. She needs a home as a single dog, we are having issues with her and another dog in our home. My fiancé and i have been trying to make it work with our other dog for the last year and it is obvious they cannot live together. To prevent further escalation, we have come to the decision to rehome Lulu. This is incredibly heartbreaking for us, but we think it’s the best thing we can do for everyone’s best interest. She is great with people, and cats, she likes some dogs, but she is selective and we would prefer to rehome her as an only dog to make sure there are no future issues. We just want to find a good home where she can thrive and get all the love she deserves. She loves food, fetch, cuddling, and swimming.

Story
Tyson was rescued from rural Travis county in May, 2024. He was only a couple weeks old at the time. I live with my son and his family. My son brought Tyson home with the idea he would be his sons dog. Unfortunately, Tyson has grown to be too big and my 8 y/o grandson cannot always handle him. Tyson is strong, always energetic, happy to see us, and in a good mood. Although my grandson will play with him, Tyson gets excited and tries to jump on him. Since he is not house trained we have to keep him outside, or he is in a kennel in the garage. We also have a 2 year old, and Tyson has knocked him over more before. But Tyson is just playful and has never been mean to anyone in the family. He is not mean at all and he has never bitten anyone. I believe Tyson is very trainable, but no one here has the time to dedicate to training him. My son works 12 hour days. He needs someone who can give him their attention

Story
Cookie might start off a bit shy, but once she warms up, she becomes a playful puppy with unique quirks. One quirk she has is that she will only walk on your left side. She is always eager and ready to be your walking/running buddy. She has a very independent spirit meaning she’s perfectly content with alone time—Cookie is comfortable staying home for up to 6 hours and loves to nap in her crate, which she considers her safe haven. Fully house-trained and with a gentle demeanor, Cookie is a smart pup who gets along well with other animals and adapts her energy to match yours. Cookie loves sleeping! She’ll happily snooze the day away, but she’s always up for a play session when you’re ready. She is very treat motivated once she opens up to you. Cookie would be great for someone looking for a loyal, low-maintenance, and loving companion.

Story
Hi! My name is Ebba! I am a beautiful 8 year old flashy fawn lady! No information is known about my history but I'm looking forward to my forever family now! I am energetic when I am first let out of my crate, but settle quickly. I am house trained, crate trained, and leash trained! I enjoy my evening walks and have been learning house rules and manners while settling nicely into daily routines. My foster home does not have kids so a proper introduction would be needed. I happily follow my foster mom around the house and am a world champion snuggler! I am an avid squirrel chaser and would chase them up the tree if I could, so I need to live in a cat free and small animal free home. Because I have a high prey drive with the squirrels, my foster mom doesn't leave me in the backyard unattended. I can be a bit bossy and protective so it would be best for me if I was the only dog in the home or paired with a passive male. If you are looking for a well mannered, snuggly lady, here I am! Contact the rescue today and give them my name because I am waiting to meet you!
