WE ARE A TX-BASED RESCUE. THIS DOG IS CURRENTLY LOCATED IN TX AND WILL BE TRANSPORTED UPON ADOPTION. Please fill out an adoption application at haydudeequine.org Meet Poppy – the 28 pounds of pure spunk you never knew you needed! This adorable 1-year-old Cattle Dog mix is equal parts silly, sweet, and slightly ridiculous—in the very best way. But whatever her mix, she's100% adorable goofball! Poppy comes fully loaded with energy, affection, and a signature underbite that gives her a permanent “deep thoughts” expression. Her lip gets stuck on her teeth about 90% of the time, so she often looks like she’s seriously pondering the meaning of life…when really she’s just thinking about snacks. Poppy LOVES to play with other dogs and would be thrilled to have a canine buddy to romp around stealing...err sharing toys. Cats are currently a mystery, but knowing her easygoing nature, she just might surprise us. When she’s not zooming around having fun, she’s a world-class cuddler who believes personal space is optional. She’s already house trained (gold star for Poppy!) and is always ready for adventure. Car ride? She’s calling shotgun before you even grab the keys. Windows down, ears flapping, living her best life—this girl was made for road trips and outdoor fun. Poppy would be perfect for an active person or family who enjoys walks, hikes, fetch, or just having a happy little shadow by their side. She’s great with other dogs and people of all ages, and she approaches life with a goofy, “let’s see what happens next!” attitude. If you’re looking for a fun-loving, goofy, loyal companion with a face and personality that will make you laugh every single day, Poppy is your girl. Just be prepared—once she moves in, she plans on stealing your heart, your couch spot, and possibly the front seat of your car. If you’re looking for a loyal, happy, people-loving pup who will greet every morning like it’s her best day yet, Poppy is ready to take her place in your heart and on your couch. Apply today at haydudeequine.org and let this lovable girl light up your life!

WE ARE A TX-BASED RESCUE. THIS DOG IS CURRENTLY LOCATED IN TX AND WILL BE TRANSPORTED UPON ADOPTION. Please fill out an adoption application at haydudeequine.org Calling All Senior Dog Lovers and Hospice Heroes… Molly Needs You 💕 Meet Molly – an 11–12 year old, 73-pound (slightly overweight - ideal 60ish lbs) bundle of pure, gentle love who will look at you like she’s peering straight into your soul. Molly is the kind of dog who lives for her people. If you stop petting her, she’ll politely place a paw on your arm as a friendly reminder that your job isn’t finished yet. If that doesn’t work, she’ll gently nose your hand like, “Excuse me… more love, please.” She follows her humans from room to room, happy just to be near you. Wherever you are, that’s exactly where Molly wants to be. She’s wonderful with other dogs, especially smaller, mellow pals, and she’s also great with cats. She’s fully housebroken, not destructive in the house, and is truly an easy, low-maintenance girl. A perfect family dog… and the world’s worst watchdog. Seriously. Pet her once and you can have anything you want. Scratch her ears and she might even help you load it into the car. Molly still gets the happy dance when you come home, like it’s the best moment of her entire day. She’s a little hard of hearing now, but she can still pick up certain tones—and she has no problem hearing the sound of a treat bag magically opening from across the house. Like many older gals, Molly has a few lumps and bumps. Sadly, the vet believes the mass on her shoulder is likely cancerous. Because of her age and its location, surgery isn’t recommended. The kindest plan is to let her live out her remaining time comfortable, cherished, and completely spoiled – exactly what she deserves. Molly recently lost her beloved mom, and through no fault of her own, she also lost her home. Her family was heartbroken and wants nothing more than to see her spend her golden years safe and loved again. Despite all the changes, Molly has remained the same incredibly sweet, good-natured girl and has settled beautifully into foster care. She just misses having her very own person. All Molly asks for is simple: • gentle pets • maybe a treat or three • a soft cushy doggie bed - she doesn't get on the furniture • and someone to keep company She would be a perfect companion for a retiree or someone who works from home. She’s an excellent listener, a loyal shadow, and a professional attention hound. If you have a soft spot for senior dogs—or if you’ve ever thought about opening your heart to a hospice pup—Molly would be endlessly grateful to spend her days loving you back. Sometimes the best dogs need the gentlest landings. And Molly? She is one of the very best. Apply today at haydudeequine.org and spend your days being adored!!

WE ARE A TX-BASED RESCUE. THIS DOG IS CURRENTLY LOCATED IN TX AND WILL BE TRANSPORTED UPON ADOPTION. Please fill out an adoption application at haydudeequine.org Meet Rosa – the Sweetest Soul with the Coolest Eyes in Texas! Rosa is a 2-year-old, 42-lb Australian Shepherd/Kelpie mix with a uniquely colored coat that makes her as beautiful outside as she is inside! She’s gentle, easygoing, and about as drama-free as they come. If dogs had a “Most Likely to Be Everyone’s Favorite” award, Rosa would win it paws down. This lovely girl gets along beautifully with just about everyone—people, dogs, kids, new situations—you name it. She’s calm, confident, and refreshingly mellow for an Aussie mix. Think less “whirling devilish herding machine” and more “professional couch companion with occasional zoomies.” And let’s talk about those eyes! Rosa has one stunning blue eye and one soulful brown eye. According to urban legend, that means she can see things in heaven and on earth at the same time. Pretty cool superpower, right? Basically, she’s part dog, part magical guardian angel. Rosa also comes fully loaded with excellent house manners: • Crate trained ✔ • Housebroken with a dog door ✔ • Walks beautifully on leash ✔ • Polite, well-behaved house guest ✔ • Expert at giving soft, grateful looks ✔ She enjoys relaxed strolls, cozy naps, and being near her people. She’s the kind of dog who fits seamlessly into your life like she’s always been there. Now, cats are a hard no, sorry cat lovers, she’s not a fan (she believes they are tiny, suspicious aliens), so a feline-free home is a must. But with dogs and humans? She’s an absolute dream. If you’re looking for a loyal, loving, go-with-the-flow companion who will make every day brighter just by existing in it, Rosa is ready to be your girl. Apply today and let this two-toned-eyed sweetheart see straight into your heart 💙🤎🐾

Professional companion. 🚗 Important Skill Set: Millie rides shotgun like a seasoned co-pilot — calm, confident, and fully committed to the journey. Windows down, ears flapping, living her best life. 🐕 Millie’s “Finally It’s My Turn” Resume: ✔️ 2 years old, 25 lbs ✔️ Potty trained with stellar house manners ✔️ Great with other dogs ✔️ Walks beautifully on leash ✔️ Active, affectionate, and loves to snuggle ✔️ Sweet, gentle, and not overly hyper ✔️ Cats unknown ✔️ Kids unknown, but likely great given her loving nature ✔️ Former super-mom, now proudly retired Millie is looking for a home where she can fully enjoy this next chapter — one filled with activity, companionship, freedom, and love. She’s done the hard work. Now she just wants to be someone’s best friend. If you’re searching for a dog who’s ready to adventure by day, snuggle buddy by night, and lives life to the fullest — Millie is ready to ride...straight into your heart and home!! 🐾💛
