Story
Meet Riley, aka Short Stack! 🩷 Riley is a hilarious, affectionate, delightfully clumsy 3-year-old who is always ready for food, fun, and as much attention as you’re willing to give her. She has medium energy and loves running around, being silly, and then settling in for some serious snuggles. Riley came to North Carolina from Texas after being used for breeding and ending up on the euthanasia list at a high-kill shelter. Despite not receiving much socialization early in life, she has made incredible progress and has learned so much! She is house-trained, crate-trained, and knows an impressive list of cues, including place, here, sit, down, shake, leave it, “let’s go,” break, and more. She is also working on her leash manners and recall. Riley needs to be the only pet in her new home. She is looking for a dog- and cat-free home where she can soak up all the love for herself. Because she has not previously lived with children, a home with kids ages 12 and older would be the best fit. She can become very excited and have some big feelings when she sees other dogs on walks. Her ideal adopter will have experience with reactive dogs and be willing to continue her training with patience, consistency, and positive reinforcement. In return, Riley will provide endless laughs, enthusiastic affection, and the kind of loyal love only a certified Short Stack can give. She truly is a goofy, loving girl who deserves the chance to thrive as someone’s one and only. 🩷 📍 Riley is currently being fostered in North Carolina. 🚗 Transport is available for the right home. Riley is available through another rescue, and we are sharing her as a courtesy to help her find her perfect match. Please reach out to us if you’d like to learn more about her!

Story
Meet Lily!! She was rescued from a Walmart parking lot with severe mange and was nursed back to health by her amazing foster. Just check out her photos for the before and after! She is now healthy and thriving and learning to be a puppy. About Lily -High energy, true puppy: expect curiosity :) -Shy at first, but warms up -Smart and eager to please: already knows basic commands and a couple tricks and has even done a training session -Friendly with dogs and people - was super sweet to all ages at an adoption event -Affectionate: loves belly rubs and lap time too -Best suited to a home with a playful, active dog The perfect home for Lily would be with an adopter committed to continuing her training and comfortable maintaining firm boundaries, ideally with a young or similarly energetic dog companion (or as an only dog). Lily is located in Houston, but transport is available to New York. Please visit https://www.caroscanines.com/adopt to apply for adoption and follow us on Instagram/Facebook to see more of Lily. **Lily is not spayed yet, but will be prior to adoption**

Story
Pirata is quite the charmer. He’s fully housebroken, wonderfully polite, and just needs a tiny bit of polishing on his manners. He’s an incredibly sweet boy and absolutely lives for treats. No signs of aggression or concerning behavior at all. He slept like an angel all night, and I haven’t heard him bark even once — not even when my own dogs were sounding the alarm. He’s truly a delight. If you are interested in adopting please email BARCfoster@houstontx.gov today!

Meet Roscoe!Roscoe is a sweet, well-mannered boy who has been an absolute gentleman since arriving. He has shown no aggression and is friendly with both people and other dogs.He walks beautifully on a leash, often checking in with his person for approval and keeping a great pace. He only pulls when he really needs to go or gets distracted by something interesting!Roscoe can be a little clumsy and isn`t completely confident getting into the car yet, but he`s learning. He even has an adorable way of letting you know when he doesn`t want something—he simply gives a little head shake that says, `Nope!`With his gentle personality, good leash manners, and sweet nature, Roscoe could make a wonderful companion.

Story
Meet Cashew! Cashew is a 1 year old, 39 lb Boxer mix. He's got the biggest grin, ears up, tongue out, and he is always ready to make friends with anyone who walks by. He was dumped at a park and brought to the shelter. He's put some weight on since, filled out, and showed his goofball personality to his foster right away. Cashew will do anything for a treat, especially a pup cup!! He has greeted crowds of people, including kids, at a few adoption events with a wagging tail and a wiggly body. He is extremely confident and loves his people. His favorite part of the day is going on walks, heading to the park with his foster and playing fetch and tug. Cashew is super smart!! He knows his commands already. He has had a few sessions with a trainer to work on slowing down and self-regulating as well as structured play. He is making amazing progress. Cashew recently recovered from tibial repair surgery on an old leg injury and is now cleared for running, jumping, and normal play. He'd do best with a family ready to keep that training going and would love another dog to play with. A good day for Cashew is a walk, some training, some play, and a long nap after. House trained, crate trained, food motivated, and SO much personality packed into one goofy dog. Cashew is located in Houston, but available to adopt through transport to the Northeast, Pacific Northwest & Midwest for an additional $250. Please visit https://www.caroscanines.com/adopt to apply for adoption and follow us on Instagram/Facebook to see more of Cashew.
