Story
Meet Sissy, a sweet young Heeler mix just around a year old, who’s already proven to be a tough and loving mama. She was found in a ditch with her tiny puppies, doing her best to keep them safe until help arrived. Now that her babies are growing up, it’s finally her turn to find a safe, cozy place to call home. We’re helping a local lady rehome her and she needs a soft spot to land ASAP—fosters and adopters are both welcome! Sissy is great with other dogs and even cats, though she can be a little food-aggressive, so she’ll need someone patient and understanding during mealtimes. She’s got the heart of a survivor, the soul of a mama, and so much love to give. Could you be the one to give Sissy the life she’s been waiting for? * Has a scheduled spay appointment *- Cost covers microchipping

Story
Please contact Tonya Griffith (TMSGriffith@aol.com) for more information about this pet.Posted 2/18/18, and pictures updated 5/10/20.  DEAF MALE RED HEELER PUPPY FOUND ON 1/19/18 IN TYLER, TX. A neighbor brought this little puppy to me on Friday, 1/19/18, at around 5:00 p.m., and said the puppy was traveling the road with an adult male dog that looked similar to the puppy, but the puppy came to him in his yard while the other dog kept going. I put some food down for him, and he ate like he was starving. I gave him the name Brody. On Saturday, 1/20/18, I noticed that he did not stir while sleeping no matter what the noise was. I was able to get him in to the Gresham Veterinary Hospital on Tuesday, 1/23/18, to get vaccinated, and check his inner ears since he can bark. We had a Yellow Lab years ago that was born deaf, and made noises instead of barking. The puppie's ears looked good, he weighed 10.6 pounds, and was estimated to be 10 weeks old, so date of birth is around November 14, 2017.  Brody was neutered on 2/17/18, weighed 21.6 pounds, and still growing.  As of 5/10/20, he is 93 pounds. Brody is very playful, does not like to be by himself, and will be vocal about it.  He requires a fenced yard, and another dog that can hear to guide him and play with him.  Vehicles should not be moved around him without knowing where he is, and he is not an apartment dog.  I am working on house training him, and he is doing good.  He is crate trained, and likes sleeping on a dog bed in his crate.  His fur is very soft, and he loves attention from people. Adoption fee is $80, which includes his neuter and vaccinations. November 6, 2024, 12:13 am

Please contact Tonya Griffith (TMSGriffith@aol.com) for more information about this pet.Posted 8/23/15, and pictures taken 8/4/15.  The owner died on 6/26/15 in Ben Wheeler, TX.  The mother was a Blue Heeler.  While we had the dogs at the man's house posted for the family to try to find homes for them, someone let the gate open to the dog pen, letting her mother and three siblings out, and her mother and one sibling were killed by something or someone.  Rhea was the third one that was missing, but she was found on 7/17/15, and reunited with her sister Rayna.  She can dig under a fence if she wants to, so she will need to be in a secure yard, or crated when gone.  Rhea is more social with people than Rayna, but they are both very sweet and making very good progress with us.  They both come up to me, and loves treats.
