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
Meet the incredible Izzy, although she's also known as Samantha, a true American Staffordshire Terrier mix with a heart as big as the open plains. Izzy's journey hasn't been the easiest, but her unwavering love and loyalty shine bright. With eyes that sparkle like stars, Izzy is the kind of companion that makes every car ride an adventure. She loves hopping in and taking her spot in the backseat, right between her favorite humans, ready to share the road with you. She's a cuddle enthusiast, known to flop down next to you just to feel close and get her fair share of affection. Izzy is well-behaved and knows the importance of a schedule, making potty breaks a breeze. She's kennel trained, but her curious nature and intelligence can sometimes turn her into a bit of an escape artist. She's full of love and a big fan of chew toys, treats, and special puppucinos to celebrate the good times. However, she does get nervous if left alone for too long, stemming from her early days when she waited by a ditch until kind humans came to her rescue. Izzy's heart overflows with love for her people, but she's still working on building trust with male figures due to her past experiences. She's not only great with other dogs, often rolling around in the grass, but she can also tolerate feline friends. However, her feelings towards other cats are unpredictable. And beware, she has a knack for letting everyone know when it's her turn for a potty break with her unique, loud cry. While she's an excellent leash walker, her excitement sometimes gets the best of her, leading her to try and take the lead. But with the right training and a bit more time, she's sure to overcome this small quirk. Izzy is a remarkable girl, full of love and a testament to the resilience of animals. If you're seeking a loyal and loving companion who's come a long way, Izzy is the one for you. She's more than just a dog; she's a treasured family member waiting for her forever home. Are you ready to welcome her into your heart and home? 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)

Hi, we are Laverne and Shirley and much like the famed couple living in Milwaukee and looking for a future filled with big families and love and HOMES!! We are a great pair of pups and we were literally found dumped on the side of a railroad tracks at less than 10 weeks old :( When we were found, we each had one eye that was like a "cherry pie", I think that's what the doctor man said..... (the doc said "cherry eye!!") We were so bonded that Shirley's left eye and Laverne's right eye had the "cherry pie" :) I mean, how cute and sad is that???? We are a couple of pittie/lab girls, we are great with all people, dogs, cats and even tortoises!! We are bonded but can be separated if the right families come along. Honestly though, we are like the peanut butter and chocolate debate- TAKE THEM TOGETHER!!!! We are about 50# maybe, full grown... We LOVE to ride in the car, so traveling with you is super easy, cause we are THERE! You don't have to pick us up, we load up!! I think you need to go ahead and fill out the application soon! ONE OR BOTH, we are waiting!!!! Local adoption fee is $200/each ($400 together) in TX Out of state fee is $400/each ($800 together) includes transport to your area Laverne and Shirley are adorable girls looking for adorable home/homes :) Belinda is their foster mom, belindaperz@yahoo.com

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

Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Meet Cooper aka Toot Toot aka Toot Bagoot aka Tooter Cooper was basically born and raised in the shelter system so everything is new to him, he's still learning what stairs are and what the big moving screen that talks to him is. Tooter has nothing but love to give. The best way to describe Toot toot is a bull in a China shop. Your personal space is his personal space. Your spot on the couch is his spot on the couch. Fancy decorations? Oh you mean those things in his way! Toot is completely potty trained and listens very well! He knows sit, and down and is good in a kennel. Cooper's FAVORITE thing is soft stuffed toys and will definitely make your home look like a winter wonderland with stuffing. He is still learning about those small stick things attached to human arms and that those are in fact part of the human and not part of the treat or toy, but Cooper is a smart boy! Toot has never met a stranger with 2 legs or 4 legs, but since Cooper is a puppy in an adult dogs body, people his size may not be the best choice for him. Cooper has a heart of gold and just wants to please people and give you all the kisses (and maybe nibble on your toes a little). We know the right home is out there for our boy but 3 years in a shelter is too long. Do you think you're up for a sweet hyper house piggy? Apply for the Bagoot today, he's waiting for you.

Milo is a super sweet and fun loving guy who recently had to be surrendered to us due to his owner falling ill. Now he is looking for a home that can love him just as much as his previous owner! He can be a bit nervous and shy at first but becomes a total goofball once you get to know him. He has quite a bit of energy and loves to run around and get crazy with the other pups here, but is also down for a nice cuddle with the people he loves most. Stop by our Mills Civic location to meet this special 45lb man with a heart of gold!

Story
Silas is a sweet soul and very kind, but had a bit of a rough start in his short nine months of life. Silas has been bounced around from the shelter to a home multiple times due to no fault of his own and is ready for a home that will stick! Each home decided that they weren't ready for the love that Silas is ready to give, and he has a lot of love ready for anyone willing to accept it! He loves other dogs, loves people, is good with kids, and is overall just the goodest boy! If you need a little gentleman in your life with a big heart stop in to meet sweet little Silas today!
