Paris is a sweet girl looking for a wonderful forever home. She is happiest snuggling on the couch with her person. Paris is great in the house and would love to share your bed with you, but she is also comfortable being crated if necessary. She is house trained and can generally be trusted alone in the house. She is happy and loving to people. She is very particular with dogs and should be any only pet. Paris is not good with cats. Paris is generally good on a leash but sometime needs reminders not to pull. She loves going on walks and roaming around her backyard, but she is not a fan of spending long periods of time outside. She is definitely a house princess. Paris would do best with older dog savvy children as she can be a bit energetic at times and can knock down small children. She would be a great emotional support dog as she is very affectionate and happy to snuggle all day if that is what is required. Paris is spayed, up to date on all vaccinations and micro-chipped. If you would like to meet Paris, or get more information about her, contact us today.

Birdie is a sweet little lady looking for her forever home. Birdie is great on a leash and loves to investigate the farm. She is pretty good off leash, as she comes back when called most of the time. Occasionally, her nose takes in a different direction. She has been great with all of the people she has met. She seems to be way to interested in cats, so a cat free home would probably be best. We introduced her to our test dog who tells us how he feels about the other dogs. He didn't like her energy. She seems to be quite assertive to new dogs. Any dogs intros would need to be handled with care. As we get to know her better we will update her bio. Birdie is a spayed Staffordshire Terrier, approximately 2 years old. She is up to date on her vaccinations and is micro-chipped. If you are interested in learning more about her, please contact us today.

This is Teddy Boy and with a name like that, you know what you’re in store for. We’re talking serious big hug energy. We all know the feeling of a perfectly timed hug, it’s a level of free therapy we all want and need- a true teddy bear in every sense! With his soft, cozy, warm brown fur and an irresistible charm, he’s the kind of pup that makes everyone feel better just by being around. From his absolute lover boy vibe to the fun-uncle approach he has with kids- he is a swoon for the ladies and a dream wingman for the gentlemen. Watch Teddy Boy’s video and FALL IN LOVE with him: https://youtu.be/hB7Hvb85a00?si=R1_PYPQW6McRmt05 Now, let’s get down to business. While we can't be 100% sure about his breed or age, we suspect Teddy is some type of American Staffordshire Terrier mix, estimated to be around 3.5 years old and 62 lbs- a true hunk-of-love. Put the numbers aside, let’s talk about what really matters—Teddy’s personality and all of the other things that make Teddy a great family dog! His true crown and glory is how amazingly calm, patient, gentle and tolerant of it all when it comes to the littles. Truly, queue the AWWWW of a room full of women who got to watch a five year old squeeze Teddys neck with whole body for Teddy to turn around and lick his face with all the love a bully can have for a boy. If Teddy was put on this earth for one thing it’s to spread the warmth of what we call the “Teddy experience,” which starts with slobbery kisses and ends in tail-wagging bliss. He is a family-approved cuddler with a side of patient saint. When it comes to strangers, the word does not exist in Teddy's vocabulary. He loves every single person he meets. It's honestly something to admire. He greets everyone like he has known them his entire life and showers them all with slobbery kisses and those big grand hugs of his. Only if you let him though! He is mindful if that's not someone's cup of tea but he will test the waters to see at first. He just wants people to know how much he loves him is all. Teddy is the perfect dog to take with you places or if you like having friends over because of how friendly he is. In public, surrounded by crowds - true gentleman happy to be there. At home with friends over - a soft friendly welcome followed by snuggles. In the car, going through the drive thru - a happy boy with the biggest smile sticking his head out the window saying hello. Truly, Teddy can do it all. As far as canine-companions go, he is very dog friendly! Teddy absolutely loves to play and brings that fun uncle energy when he is plating with other dogs. He is bouncing, bobbing, doing these quick feet type movements, inviting play with the most perfect play bows, and having the time of his life. Teddy loves to wrestle and loves when he is with other dogs that love wrestling too. You know that what we're talking about, the kind of rumble and tumble moments where slobber is flying, grumbly noises are being heard, paws are flopping around, and they are both rolling around like a couple of goofy puppies. There's lots of mouthy play and exaggerated movement with tails wagging the whole time and the occasional bark; in Teddy's case a snort LOL. He is actually a little pig not a dog. It might look a little wild but it's all in good fun. Teddy knows how to read the room and knows who he can play wrestle with and who he can't. I have personally seen him with so many different dogs all with different energies, play styles, tolerance, etc. and he does such a great job and figuring out who he can play with or if there is any potential of playing in general. For example, he has spent a lot of time with a older pittie girl who really just likes to lay in the grass and sunbathe, that's all she wants to do and Teddy was so gentle with her and didn't even try to play with her. He accidentally bumped into once and she growled at him and he just acted like, "oh sorry friend, I didn't see you there." He has also been with male dogs that love to play chase and want dogs to chase them and Teddy adjusted to that type of play even though all he wanted to do was wrestle. He knew the other dog didn't want to play that way and respected that. He did try to test to see if the other dog would wrestle with him but he didn't and Teddy respected that. There was no one else in the yard that would play with Teddy so he just went off, sought out affection from the people that were there and ended up finding a little muddy/water hole patch to relax in. Queue the piggie reference LOL. If you don't have other dogs, Teddy fills the “shoes” of at least two dogs and would love to be the one who single-pawed, lights up your life. He does not need the company of another dog to help him feel comfortable and open up, he is confident and SO LOVING all on his own. He also doesn't need the company of another dog fulfill his energy needs. Mental stimulation games, likes puzzles, Kongs, or physical exercise such a playing ball in the backyard, going on a walk around the neighborhood, or even going on a day date to the farmers market, or local brewery to meet up with friends will be both physical and mentally tiring. Once you're home he'll be a tired boy and ready for all the naps and snuggles. With feline friends, he had a bit too much interest in our resident cat, Tom—so, no feline friends for Teddy. Not a deal-breaker in our book. He’s been lucky enough to be fostered in a loving home, where he’s mastered the fine art of house manners and is both house and crate trained. Yes, you heard that right—no messy surprises here! Not only does he have stellar house manners, Teddy is very smart too. He already knows how to sit, walks well on a leash, is a perfect gentleman out in public, has a generally good recall already, and is a fast learner! Teddy attended an event recently and there was a prime picture worthy moment but no where to tie his leash up to so practiced the place command right then and there! When we say, Teddy instantly knew what was expected of him, HE DID! You can see it for yourself in his video. It was so impressive to because there was a lot going on, a lot of stimulation, noises, people walking by, other dogs, you name it and Teddy learned the makings of a good place command in seconds. Teddy also has wonderful manners in the car! He is completely capable of loading up and unloading all on his own. He might need a booty push every now and then LOL if he's had a long day and is tired. You'll know if he needs help because he'll stand there and look back at you with this look of, "um excuse me, can I get a little assistance please?" During car rides you have the option of letting him ride shotgun or in the back without tethering him. He'll look out the window regardless of where he is sitting. He doesn't bark, he just watches all the passerby's and patients waits for the destination. If an affectionate boy who is real easy on the bully-loving eyes is what you are looking for then you have found him! The soft fur, the warm kisses, his adoring approach to kids, grade-a snuggles, and a true-blue loyal companion, Teddy is your boy! He’s ready to be yours!

We have over 15,000 successful adoptions so far and have excellent Google Reviews: https://g.co/kgs/UQ5Pyai We care deeply about making the perfect match between dog and family for long term success. Our rescue has a 2 acre property in Texas where we assess every animal with trainers on staff, we modify behavior as needed, and create individualized behavior plans to help prepare dogs for their future families including crate training, potty training, leash walking, etc. Our fosters are able to attend group trainings and socialization play groups to keep dogs adoption-ready. Our on-site trainers support the positive growth of our dogs and we enjoy seeing their progress! Our commitment to comprehensive medical care sets us apart. We've received glowing feedback from veterinarians who commend our dedication to ensuring the health and well-being of every animal in our care with treatments that often go above and beyond. Our adoption fees reflect the extensive care and resources that go into each animal we save. The adoption fee is a donation to the mission and goes far beyond getting a fully vetted pet. The rescue’s hard costs alone (excluding transport) for a healthy dog to go through our program typically range between $412 to $859, which includes boarding, food, medications, vaccines, and spay/neuter. For heartworm-positive dogs, hard costs are upwards of $1,368. Additionally, dogs requiring extended boarding, extra training, or extra medical care—such as dental work, vision care, or orthopedic care—can lead to expenses running into the thousands. Also, included in the adoption fee are costs to cover transport up to the Pacific Northwest or East Coast. Transport is a significant additional expense to the rescue. While adoption fees help cover part of these expenses, we want to emphasize that the rescue does not receive government funding and must fundraise to offset the remaining expense balance which ranges $100-1,000++ per animal on these direct costs. It doesn’t stop there!

Sawyer is a “Pocket Bully” born in September 2018 with a cleft lip, cleft palate, and spina bifida. He is currently eating and drinking safely on his own and we don’t believe his cleft lip/palate will require any surgical intervention. Sawyer will always need a little extra supervision to make sure he doesn’t eat anything dangerous for him, and will never be able to safely eat wet or goopy foods like canned food, peanut butter, yogurt, or any other liquids other than water. But otherwise he is expected to live a long, healthy life. The spina bifida causes Sawyer to be incontinent and to have some weakness in his back legs. He can walk and get around very well, but he will be in diapers for the rest of his life. He is a very happy, spunky pup and is friendly with humans and other dogs. He needs a committed home willing to give him the extra care he needs to thrive. Sawyer has been neutered, is current on vaccinations, has tested negative for heartworm and is also micro chipped.
