Story
Bella is a super happy go lucky puppy. Her birthdate is April 28, 2023. We have had her since July 2023. Unfortunately, our older dog is just not nice to her, and I'm almost 9 months pregnant and I just don't see them being good with the newborn together. It really breaks my heart because Bella loves playing with my 4 year old. She loves fetching, is potty trained, and loves cuddling on the couch. She needs to go to a good family that can spend time with her, go on walks, and love on her. She has all the blue heeler attributes, and will make a great family dog. We have a kennel for her (she is kennel trained) a couple of toys, a dog bed, food, bowls, and an airtight food container for her, all of which we are giving away with Bella.

Story
Hello! This is Mochi (mo-chee) and he is around 10 yrs old (could be younger since he was a stray) We are looking to rehome Mochi in preparation for life changes within the next year. I’m looking much earlier in advance so I have time to vet ppl out. Mochi is calm like 80% of the day despite being a mix of a bunch of herding dogs but definitely gets more energetic after work hours. He had heartworms after I initially adopted him 5 years ago but those were treated w no issues. He is not a super cuddly dog but definitely enjoys people and being pet. Just not hugs, being lifted, or his tail being touched while he’s resting. Hes also doesnt have the best track record w other animals especially ones bigger than him (could also be my inexperience w dog behavior though) He plays on the rougher side for some people but he is also very food motivated. Ultimately I think it’s better for him that he be in a home that can spend more time than we can into him.

Story
LIO is an easy going special needs 2 year old Australian Cattle dog terrier mix looking for a loving human companion. He is a special boy who is deaf, but it is hard to tell because he adapts easily. Would be best with an adopter who can be in charge and give him clear expectations of what is expected of him. In return, you will have a loving companion, who wants to please and enjoy life with you. Moderately active boy, who even though he is young, is not hyper or nervous. Happy to go for walks, cuddle up on the couch, lay at your feet while you work on the computer or follow you around the yard as you garden. He just wants love, attention (but not needy) and a soft place to lounge. Dog friendly with female, large and small dogs who won't get 'yappy' in his face. He would love to be your one and only, getting all of your affection. Housetrained, with good house manners. Crate trained, although not his favorite, he will go in, but would prefer to be laying at your feet. Enjoys sitting in his human's lap, getting pet and belly rubs. He enjoys treats, dog toys, long belly rubs, lounging in the pool on the steps or sunning himself in the yard. Great car rider who likes to feel the fresh air and sunshine on his face. Lio has had professional training learning how to walk next to his person on a leash, and has mastered commands 'sit, down, stay and off'. Sleeps through the night in his own bed. Has not been destructive inside or outside. Not a big barker at all. Has not been cat tested, so we are unable to adopt him to a home with cats or small critters. He would be great for a family with grown children, single person or a couple. A home with a fenced yard would be best to keep him safe. Deaf dog experience is not required, just a good adopter, willing to be a leader and give him a loved life. Lio is 49 lbs, neutered, microchipped, up to date on vaccines, including rabies, heartworm negative and current on prevention. Fostered in Texas, with transportation available to most U.S. states.

Story
We adopted Charlie from a Williamson County shelter, he's about 10 months old and a very affectionate Australian Cattle Dog. His energy comes and goes where one day he might want to bed rot and relax, then the next day want to be outside running around or chewing on toys. We've not seen him be aggressive nor trying to attack, he's really derpy and likes to have his own space. You might think something is wrong with him at first because he rarely barks or whines, not much seems to phase him even when other dogs bark at him he looks at them in confusion, though if a new dog gets too up in his personal space he might let out a groan as he assesses the other dog. He does not do well with smaller dogs as he tends to push them out of the way in excitement and isn't that well aware of his own physical presence, but he loves to run around and play with dogs his own size at daycare -- he would do great in a home where he is the sole dog or another similar size to match his energy.

Story
Sadie is very energetic and is very sharp- she is quick to p/u new commands, she has had some initial training and excelled. She loves to run and jump, she does enjoy digging holes, too. There is some issue with the dynamics with the older dog, on both sides - this is the reason we suggest she be a single pet. We do not feel we are doing either dog justice since Sadie should have a lot more activities than we are able to provide, mainly due to our health. We would love for her to get a home that she thrives in and gets to go on adventures. She is a very sweet dog and we are sad but this is what would be best for both of these fur- babies

Story
Hi! My name is Squirrel, and I am so ready to meet my fur-ever family! My big foster fur sister and I can play for hours, and every second of it is so much fun! Everything that she does, I do. She is such a good teacher and friend, and we get along so well. She has taught me a lot of manners. Like, I remember when I first came home, I used to jump on people, but now I don’t do that much anymore. One thing she hasn’t taught me to do is bark, and I think my foster mom loves that. My big fur sister barks a lot to protect me, so I guess I don’t see a reason to bark. Although I love my goofy big dog sister, I am looking forward to spending my life with you. I love, love, love my toys. All kinds of toys really. I will fetch and play and chew on any toy you have all day long. I even have cloth squeaky toys and I am very gentle with those, but I prefer harder rubber toys. Anything that bounces that I can chase after really catches my attention. Did I mention I love toys?! Just make sure you put away anything that you don’t want chewed on, because I think everything in the house is a toy, and I don’t want to tear up anything that doesn’t belong to me.Did you say walk? Yes, please. I love my walk time because I have quite a bit of energy that I need to get out. I call this energy love, and that is why I have so much of it. Now, I could use some leash training if you know how to teach me. I just think I get so excited about everything outside that I cannot slow down and I want to pull my foster mom everywhere and show her all the really cool things outside. I am very interested in cats, birds, and squirrels (I think that is where I got my name from) so make sure you hold tight to my leash! I am house-trained and I love my dog door, so if you have a dog door, that is a big plus! I love going out and laying in the sun whenever I want, or swimming in the little pool I have in the yard. I feel so comfortable in my kennel. That is my place to relax and escape. My foster sister does not like my kennel, so I get it all to myself. I don’t need to sleep in your bed at night unless, of course, you let me. However, just be warned, if you let me sleep in your bed, I won’t stop cuddling! I love to cuddle! I will cuddle into every tiny space there is. I am so sweet and love to burrow my head under blankets, pillows, legs, really anywhere. So, you have been warned!As I said earlier, I don’t bark, but I do whine (at least
