Story
Juniper is a smart, medium energy girl who`s always ready to learn - especially if there`s a treat or squeaky toy as a reward! She already knows how to sit on command, and she’s been learning how to give her paw…though at the moment she seems to think it requires two paws. Juniper is great at entertaining herself. She loves investigating all the interesting smells around her, or playing with a squeaky toy for a while. Her playful moments come in short bursts, and she’s fun and easygoing.While Juniper is confident enough to keep herself busy, she also loves attention and happily soaks up pets whenever they`re offered. She`s looking for a family who will enjoy her playful personality and give her plenty of opportunities to explore, play, and be loved.

Story
Moxie`s name fits her perfectly! She`s independent enough to do her own thing, and that`s part of her charm! She likes to take in every sight and smell along the way. She came to us wearing an “Emotional Support Animal” collar, so we know she had an owner at some point, but sadly no one ever came looking for her. She’s ready to start her next chapter in her forever home. This smart girl already knows how to sit on command and has a calm, easygoing side. She`ll patiently stand still while you dress her up in a cute bandana and happily accepts a few moments of affection, especially if you`re handing out her favorite butt scratches! She also walks well on a leash. Moxie isn`t the type to demand constant attention - in fact, she`ll often wander off after she`s had enough pets - but she`s happy to check back in for a little love now and then. She has a low to medium energy level and enjoys having room to explore without feeling the need to be entertained every second.Moxie has also done well with other dogs in our shelter playgroups. She enjoys trying to get them to play, but she`s polite and knows when to back off if another dog isn`t interested. If you`re looking for a confident, observant companion who appreciates both her independence and the occasional scratch behind the ears (or better yet, on her backside), Moxie could be the perfect match for you.

Story
Over-sized Lap Dog Alert!!! Hi, I’m Chester and I’m SUPER excited to meet you. I mean, no one has ever been as happy to see you as I will be. I can’t help it, I just think you’re great! I have 3 canine foster sisters right now; I was a little unsure at first but we all get along just fine now. Now my human foster sister, she’s my absolute favorite. We play this hide and seek game when she goes to school, where I go in her room and look for her until she gets home. It can take awhile, but I win every time! I’ll miss her so much when I go to my forever home, but I’ll be so excited to start my journey with my new forever family too! My foster mom says I’m a good boy- I know how to sit, wait for a command to eat, and shake. I need a little help walking on a leash, but that’s just because everything is so exciting! I have a good amount of energy and would be great for an active family, but I also love naps and cuddling- I’m a GREAT cuddler. My adoption fee is $100 in the Houston area, or $250 out of state(includes health certificate and travel fee). It includes all my vaccines, neuter, and microchip. What do you say, are you excited to meet me too? .   Fill out an app to meet me: https://toolkit.rescuegroups.org/of/f?c=SQYPSGVQMarch 7, 2026, 3:05 pm

Story
Hello, my name is Beatrix.  I am a LOVER of all dogs. I am the definition of a sweet pittie who knows how to engage play with other dogs. My foster mom calls me a "plug and play" type of dog when it comes to all dogs. I love to be with my humans & most of all nap on a soft bed. I am crate and potty trained. I am currently in foster home with dogs of all sizes and do great. I can actually get them to play with me. Im treat motivated and will melt into you when getting pets. I have been practicing my leash skills and getting to be a pro at it. I will sit and wait for a command to start eating. My adoption fee is $200 locally in Houston, TX or I can be transported out of state for $350 with a health certificate and travel fee.  It includes all my vaccines, spay/neuter, and microchip.

BONNIE

American Staffordshire Terrier

Female, 2 yrs 5 mos
Rosenberg, TX
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Bonnie is a fun loving, medium sized girl with the perfect mix of playful energy and the ability to settle down when it`s time. She walks nicely on and is always eager to head to a play yard for some fun. Her favorite way to play is with squeaky toys. She is absolutely obsessed! She`ll happily entertain herself for ages, tossing them around, pouncing on them, and making them squeak to her heart`s content. When playtime is over, she`ll do her best to convince you it shouldn`t be, and will try and sneak her toy back from you if she’s able. Even without a toy, she`s great at finding ways to keep herself entertained. Bonnie already knows how to sit on command and is happy to work for treats, which she takes gently from your hand. While she`s definitely food motivated, toys win every time! She enjoys affection too, though she`s usually ready to get back to playing before too long. With her playful personality, toy obsession, and ability to balance fun with quieter moments, Bonnie would love a home that enjoys interactive play and can keep her supplied with plenty of squeaky toys. If you`re looking for a cheerful companion who will make every day a little more entertaining, Bonnie is ready to squeak her way into your heart. She promises to love you even more than she does toys!

Story
Lovebug lives up to her name in every way! This sweet girl absolutely adores people and soaks up every bit of affection she can get. If you start petting her, she’ll lean in as close as possible. She’s especially fond of a good back scratch and will twist herself into the funniest positions just to make sure you hit the right spot. Lovebug walks great on a leash without pulling. Out in the yard, she enjoys exploring and sniffing around. She’s happy to hang out by your side, but she’s also happy to entertain herself when needed. Lovebug is both gentle and well mannered. She sits on command (or even when she thinks you might want her to), takes treats softly, and is both treat and squeaky toy motivated. She’s also an in shelter playgroup rockstar who gets along great with other dogs. With her sweet, friendly nature, medium energy level, and mostly calm demeanor, Lovebug is an easygoing, affectionate companion who’s ready to share her big heart (and kisses) with someone special.

Story
My dog had a litter of pups three years ago. All the pups went to homes with an agreement they would live indoors and cared for. My mother "found" someone, her neighbor, to adopt one of the pups. Last year, I was informed the dog has had to stay outside and they have not trained him. His name is Charlie, or as I like to call him "CharChar Binks." He is a sweet boy that needs someone to spend time with him. He has been fixed six 6-9 months, from what I was told My mother brought him back to my home, tied him to the tree and left. She lives 4 hours away. I work 40+ hours a week and am unable to provide him with stable training, and he is trainable. He is a loving pup and needs a place where he can have a backyard or land. Currently, he gets off the doggy run once-twice a week. It is not fair for him. I cannot afford to give him proper time nor care. He is such a sweet boy. He does not do well with cats or chickens. He will chase them. I am desperate to find him a good home.
