Story
Meet Bosun! A deeply affectionate eight-year-old American Staffordshire Terrier currently in Austin, TX, whose calm heart and routine-loving soul make him the ultimate steady companion wrapped in a warm brown coat with white accents. Bosun is a 65-pound cuddle connoisseur with a temperament as soothing as a cozy afternoon nap in the sun. He thrives in the comfort of structure, give him a routine, and he’ll give you unwavering companionship in return. He’s crate-trained, house-trained, and responds beautifully to structure and positive reinforcement. He knows “place,” “come,” “sit,” “stay,” “leave it,” and “drop it,” and he’s currently polishing up his skills through a professional board-and-train program with Koru K9, with follow-up support included for his future family. What makes Bosun truly unforgettable? His whole-body lean when he wants affection like a living, tail-wagging weighted blanket! He barely barks (unless a UPS truck dares to approach), and he respects household rules like a true gentleman. He’s happiest near his person, lounging in a sunny patch or following you from room to room with quiet devotion. Bosun’s ideal home is calm and consistent, with someone who appreciates the beauty of a slow morning, the peace of a steady rhythm, and the joy of a dog who simply wants to be near the people he loves. He’s friendly with other dogs, gentle with cats, and has done well around older kids. Though he used to struggle with separation anxiety, he’s made impressive strides, thanks to his training, he can now settle calmly when left alone for short periods. In the past, when Bosun didn’t receive enough physical exercise or mental engagement before being left alone, he would occasionally grab items like books or packages from the counter and tear them up. However, this behavior has been fully resolved with consistent daily walks and enrichment. Providing mental stimulation (such as a snuffle mat, puzzle toy, or licking treat) allows him to settle calmly and contently when left alone. He only tends to act out when his exercise and enrichment needs haven’t been met beforehand. Warm weather, enrichment toys, and tug-of-war are a few of his favorite things (beware: he will play tug until your arms give out, then kindly suggest you use the other one). Bosun doesn’t need much, just love, routine, and a comfy spot on the couch! Are you ready to bring home a loyal, sunbathing sidekick who’ll lean into your life with love?

Story
Milo came from a border town in Mexico where very few dogs get a second chance. He was extremely scared and shut down at first, and only weighed 34 lbs when he was rescued. Now in a foster home, Milo is doing much better and has gained healthy weight—he’s now about 55 lbs. He is around 5 years and 5 months old, neutered, up to date on shots, and house trained. He gets along great with other dogs, both big and small, and does best with a dog companion to help build his confidence. Milo is also cat-friendly. Because of his fearful background, we think Milo would do best in a home without small children. Fast movements and loud noise can overwhelm him, so older kids or an adult home would be ideal. Once he feels safe, he enjoys cuddling and being close to his people. Milo’s adoption fee is $350. You can apply to adopt him at: codysfriendsrescue.org or here in this app. ##1111626##

Ruthie's journey from the streets to the shelter is incredible. This brave 6-year-old, 58-pound pooch survived a bullet wound and raised ten puppies who have all found loving homes.

Story
“S’mores is the BEST snuggler I’ve ever had. If someone wants a friend for their dog and a couch potato with people—she is it!” (says her foster, see pic!) Meet S’mores, a gentle soul with a heart of gold. This sweet girl may not love big events, but she absolutely thrives at home. Her happy place? Curled up on the couch next to her favorite humans or romping around the yard with her dog friends. S’mores needs a little time to settle into new surroundings—she may lay low under the bed and watch quietly until she feels safe. Giving her space, letting her come to you, and avoiding too much direct eye contact at first are key to earning her trust. But once she’s in, she’s all in. You’ll have a loyal, affectionate shadow who loves to snuggle and be part of the pack. She is housebroken, crate trained and walks on a leash pretty well. She’s incredible with other dogs—playful, respectful, and great with all sizes and personalities. We’re looking for a home with at least one other dog to help her adjust and show her the ropes. She will need a home with no cats. S’mores currently lives with older kids and does great with them. Due to her shy nature, she’s best suited for a calmer home without young children. After spending the first year of her life with little human interaction, S’mores has blossomed in foster care. Now, she’s ready for a forever home that will be patient, kind, and full of love. She deserves nothing less. https://bit.ly/codys_adoption_application. ##2261720##

Story
Meet Koko — a soulful, affectionate girl with the most unforgettable blue eyes Born June 20, 2023, Koko is a stunning 65-lb beauty with piercing blue eyes, a soft coat, and a heart that bonds deeply with her people. She is a true snuggle bug — affectionate, goofy, and eager to please — and she thrives on close connection with those she trusts. Koko is exceptionally well-mannered and very obedient. She is fully house-trained and naturally polite, often waiting patiently for permission before eating, hopping on the couch, or entering a room. She knows commands such as sit, paw, stay, kiss, and go to the cage, walks beautifully on a leash without pulling, and rides calmly in the car. At home, Koko is loving, playful, and content — equally happy being silly or settling in for belly rubs and cuddles. She forms strong bonds and is deeply loyal once she feels safe. Koko does best in: A calm, structured home A household with older children (pre-teen and up) An environment where her boundaries are respected She can coexist with other dogs, but she is dog-selective and requires thoughtful introductions. She has successfully formed close friendships with the right dog personalities and would thrive either as an only dog or with a compatible canine companion. Koko tends to bond more quickly with women but has shown she can build trusting relationships with men given time, consistency, and patience. Once she trusts you, she is incredibly devoted. Koko’s previous family realized they couldn’t give her the time and attention she deserves. She is now ready for a forever home that will offer understanding, stability, and love — and in return, she will give her whole heart. House-trained Spayed, vaccinated, and healthy Koko is not just a good dog — she’s a deeply special one, waiting for the right home to truly see her. ##2008745##
