Story
- A sweet boy who loves to say hi to people - Has done well accepting pets from strangers but still like to take his time getting to know and trust people - Loves to learn and has great focus - especially if you have treats - so would be a lot of fun to train - Know sit, shake and down - May take some time to warm up to new dogs and may prefer some dogs over others; would be most comfortable with a slow introduction to new dogs (dog intro required) - Enjoys spending time with dogs who have a similar play style - Young, noisy or busy children can be too much for him (mature home recommended) The ARL's shelter software requires that we choose a primary breed for our dogs. Visual breed identification in dogs is unreliable, so for most dogs we are only guessing at primary breed. We get to know each dog as an individual and do our best to describe each of our dogs based on personality, not breed label. Primary Color: White Weight: 55 Age: 7yrs 2mths 3wks

Story
Get ready to meet the newest combo meal sensation, brought to you by McDonald's... Oops, we mean McDaddy and his sister wives, McMuffin and McFlurry! These delightful pups were discovered living in a McDonald's drive-thru, where they'd been flipping tails for months. The good news? One of the sister wives, McFlurry, has already found her forever home and is loving life! But the McDaddy-McMuffin duo is still awaiting their perfect match, whether that means together or apart. What's the secret sauce to their happiness? Well, these two definitely need another canine companion to keep those tails wagging! Let's meet the star of the show, McDaddy! He's a sweet, middle-aged guy with a low-energy vibe. He enjoys leisurely strolls through the yard, cozy couch naps, and most of all, he loves chilling in his crate while keeping a watchful eye on the house. McDaddy is a people lover, but he's not so keen on the little ones-they make him a bit nervous. However, when it comes to other dogs, he's a real team player, and those pesky cats? Well, he's too smart to bother with them. He's diligently working on his housetraining manners and wears a fancy belly band until he's mastered it all. But for a former drive-thru aficionado, he's adjusting beautifully to the cozy comforts of home life, complete with his very own spot and foster humans who adore him for exactly who he is! With a heart full of gratitude for his newfound safety, regular meals, and understanding and loving people, McDaddy is more than ready for his forever companion, whether it's a friend for your dog or a package deal with his lovely sister, McMuffin. So, if you're ready to add a dash of love and happiness to your life, don't leave McDaddy at the drive-thru! Swing by and let him be the perfect addition to your family. And don't forget to check out his stunning sister, McMuffin-she's head over paws for her foster home too! Local adoption fee is $200 (in TX)

Story
Taffy, like the sweet thick concoction that partially melts in your mouth and attaches to your teeth, I am a sweet and sticky girl :) I love love my people and will attach myself to you and your kids faster than you can say... sugar!!! I also am a loving and happy girl, who came from a not so sweet situation to find my true sweet spot- in your bed and on your oouch! I know i look pretty happy and it does betray some of the sadness I felt when I was in the clink....with my five babies....and no hope... But like the fairytale ending we all dream of, I GOT IT!! A rescuer saw my face and my babies faces and SAVED US! Now, all my pups are adopted and I am just waiting for the right family to love me too! I hope it is you, please go on and fill out the adoption application- you won't regret it! I am a great size- maybe 40#, I have a great energy- playful with my friends, and I am a sweet treat- no explanation needed there. Local adoption fee is $200 (in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $400 (includes transport to your area $50 Temporary Fuel Charge will be added)

Story
I'm Mila, a lowrider American Staffordshire terrier mix, medium sized (39#), female dog looking for my forever home! I used to have a nice owner who could take care of me but he had to give me up for unexpected reasons. I'm a bit quirky and love to tilt my head whenever you speak or interact with me, I'm really interested in what your telling me! My coat is a beautiful dark grey with a white stripe down my face and belly. Mila is a very sweet girl, who just didn't get the right family the first time around, but we LOVE second chances and so does Mila :) She is a goofy and happy girl and loves kids. She will make someone a great family dog! Rale, Kris and Lexi are her hb champions. Local adoption fee is $200 (in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $400 (includes transport to your area)
