Story
LuLu is a smart, loyal, and affectionate girl who thrives with patience and love. At this time, we are looking for a forever home where she can be the only pet — no cats and no other dogs — while she continues to grow and build confidence. She is 43 lbs, about 2 years old, spayed, and up to date on all her vaccines! Crate-trained Potty-trained Food motivated Loves people She bonds deeply with her humans and genuinely enjoys being part of whatever you’re doing. She loves interactive play, especially when toys are involved. She’ll happily chew, toss, and entertain herself, but her favorite style of play is with people! She’s food motivated and very intelligent, which makes training both productive and fun. She picks up on new things quickly and walks well on a leash. She’s crate trained, potty trained, and understands routine. LuLu also has a calm side that balances her playful nature. She enjoys curling up on the couch for a quiet night in, and she’s an excellent binge-watch companion. On car rides, she looks out the window before curling up and falling asleep. One of the best things about LuLu? Her signature LuLu wiggle. When she’s happy (which is often), her whole body joins in. It’s not just a tail wag, it’s a full celebration! Check out our social media @savingsouthtexas for videos. LuLu is looking for stability, consistency, and someone who wants a loyal, engaging, affectionate companion. If yo’ure searching for a dog who will play, snuggle close, learn quickly, and be fully devoted to her person, LuLu is ready to meet you. If you are interested in adding Lulu to your family, please submit an application found on our website: www.savingsouthtexas.com/adoptables

Chrissy made it out of BARC high kill animal shelter in Houston just in the nick of time. She is currently safe in sanctuary, but looking for a forever home. Chrissy was previously owned but left at the kill shelter by her former owner. She was confused and nearing her euthanasia date when she was saved at the last minute. Chrissy is a sweetheart of a dog and was a volunteer and staff favorite. She is great on the leash, very gentle, sweet as blackberry pie. She knows basic commands and is so eager to please. We've never met a dog so charming as Chrissy. She will make a wonderful companion for the right family. Please get in touch to meet our little Chrissy!May 23, 2024, 3:59 pm

Story
Available in TX only! Granger, a 54-pound young adult rescue dog, embodies a unique blend of traits that make him an endearing companion. Initially cautious around strangers, he blossoms into a loyal and affectionate friend once he establishes trust. His wide-set, beautiful eyes are a distinctive feature, complemented by charmingly bow-legged stature reminiscent of a bulldog. Granger thrives in the company of other dogs, eagerly seeking opportunities to snuggle and play with his furry pals. His social nature extends to adoring kids, showcasing gentle and amiable behavior around them. A testament to his adaptability, Granger is both kennel and potty trained, demonstrating discipline and understanding of boundaries. While initially uneasy with car rides, he is gradually becoming more comfortable, displaying resilience and openness to new experiences. Granger came into rescue with frequent upper respiratory infections. Extensive medical testing was done and it was discovered that he has a fungus that infiltrated his lungs and cervical spine. He underwent a vaccine regimen to stop the progression of the fungus. He will require that vaccine annually. Despite his medical condition, he continues to thrive and love life! His gradual acclimatization to car rides mirrors his overall willingness to embrace change and learn. Granger's journey from a hesitant newcomer to a beloved companion reflects his resilient spirit and willingness to form deep connections. In essence, Granger is an amiable, adaptable, and affectionate dog whose gradual warmth towards strangers underscores his loyalty and trustworthiness once he embraces friendship. His love for canine and human companionship, along with his charming features and gentle demeanor, make him a cherished addition to any loving home.

Rudy is almost 5 years old and is very sweet, calm, easy going, and rarely barks. He would love to have a playmate (not a cat though) and has not met another dog that he doesn’t get along with. He loves just hanging out next to you on the couch or running in the backyard. He is a good listener and knows basic commands, but would train well with someone who has the time and experience to do so. He is great with kids, and all around a perfect dog, but we just can’t get him acclimated to my cats.

Story
8/2/2026 Brodi III is an owner surrender looking for a new home. Hi! My name is Brodi III ! I am a handsome 10 year old fawn boy that is an owner surrender due to my owner no longer being able to give me the attention and space I deserve. I am a proud member of the rescue's Silver Heart program so be sure and ask about it because there are many perks for my adoptive family! I am described as friendly, active, protective, playful, and obedient! I do not live with other dogs or children but it is said that I am dog and kid friendly! I have never lived with a cat so it is uncertain if I am feline friendly. I am house trained, crate trained, have had obedience training, and at night I sleep in the living room on the floor. If the humans must be away I am said to do fine when left alone. When outside I have good behavior and do not dig or attempt to jump fences/gates. Some of my favorite things are riding in the car, squeaky toys, running, going for walks, getting love and pets, and playing in the water! If you think I would make a great addition to your family, contact the rescue today and tell them you want to meet Silver Heart Brodi III  because I am waiting to meet you!  ##2804801##

Story
Hi! My name is Ebba! I am a beautiful 10 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!
