Story
🐾 Meet Rusty! 🐾 Rusty is a 9-month-old Australian Kelpie/Shepherd mix who has already overcome more than any puppy should ever have to. He is currently being fostered in Mississippi but can be transported to an area near you via Rescue Riders LLC Transport. Rusty came into rescue when he was just 3 months old after someone found him. At the time, he had what appeared to be a chemical burn running the entire length of his back. We don't know what happened to him or how he was injured, but thankfully, he made it into rescue and has been given the care and love he deserved. Rusty also suffered an eye injury. We don't know if it was related to what happened to his back, but unfortunately, his eye could not be saved and had to be removed. But losing an eye hasn't slowed this handsome boy down one bit! ❤️ Today, Rusty is a happy, healthy boy who is ready for his forever home. He has a medium activity level and enjoys going for walks, but he isn't looking for a home that never stops moving. He has great manners, gets along wonderfully with dogs of all ages, and does well in a crate. Rusty is the kind of dog who has been through a lot (and he may always have a scar going down the length of his back), but hasn't let it change his sweet spirit. He deserves a family who will appreciate what a special boy he is and show him just how good life can be. ❤️ Rusty is neutered and ready to find his forever family! 🐾 9 months old 🐾 Australian Kelpie/Shepherd mix 🐾 Medium to high activity level 🐾 Loves walks 🐾 Great with dogs of all ages 🐾 Great manners 🐾 Crate trained 🐾 Neutered 🐾 Ready for adoption! 🏡❤️ If you're interested in welcoming this precious pup into your family, send us a message! We'll be happy to send you an adoption application. 💲 Adoption Fee: $450 Your puppy's adoption fee includes: 🐶 Spay/neuter 💉 Age-appropriate vaccinations 🪱 Deworming ❤️ Current heartworm and flea prevention 📍 Microchip 🚚 Transportation to you via Rescue Riders Pet Transport!

Story
Georgey (or in Spanish, Gorge) is an 11-month-old pup that weighs approximately 32 lbs. While we do not know who his parents are, we believe he is Australian kelpie mixed with lab or catahoula. Either way, he is definitely adorable and very petite. We do think he is full grown as he has not grown since we got him. He has been in foster care since March 2025 - He was born on a ranch in south Texas, where a stray dog had puppies at. Only Gorge and his brother, Johnny, were surrendered though. We don’t know what happened to the other puppies or the parents. This awesome boy absolutely loves other dogs; big and small. He is currently being fostered in a sanctuary in south Texas, along the Texas/Mexico border. This amazing sanctuary is only a short term stop for this fur-baby until their forever home is found. Gorge is a goofy boy – he is always willing to try something first and would be considered the “class clown” of the group. He is a pleaser and loves being accepted by the other dogs. He is more submissive than most. Gorge loves his toys and playing around the yard. There is nothing he does not like doing. He is all around a very relaxed and easy going boy that would fit almost all types of households. He loves being around his people and will follow you around, trying to please you too. Gorge gets a little jealous when other dogs are out playing and he is in kennel. He will make very sad whimpering sounds in hopes to get let out, and usually it works! Gorge loves his toys so much that he decides it’s much better to have 20 pieces of one toy than just one toy! Tough toys are definitely a must for young Gorgey. He has met kitties and he has no issues with them! He would live very happy with other dogs and kitties in the home. Gorge is so friendly that he loves kids, strangers and really, any human! Gorge would love a home that has another dog or dogs, where he can play, have a kiddo pool full of water to lay in and go on walks around the neighborhood to explore and see new things. He would be truly great for most types of households. This animal is fixed (spayed/neutered), heart worm positive (they have received the 30-day course of antibiotics and need to stay on heart worm prevention for 12-16 months and be retested then), current on age-appropriate vaccinations, current on flea/tick and heart worm prevention, microchipped, current on de-wormer, and will receive a clean bill of health from a licensed veterinarian prior to transport.

Story
Our old, perfect, classy lady Daisy. Daisy is a 7-year-old mix who weighs approximately 40 lbs and is the sweetest girl. You wouldn’t know she was 7 years old, as she is a puppy by heart. With Daisy you get a cuddling, loving older dog demeanor with the playfulness and happiness of a puppy. And almost no training necessary! Daisy is house and crate trained. Daisy gets along great with other dogs and would do wonderful in a home with another dog to keep her company. She absolutely loves people and is the first one to greet anyone that is coming through the door or gate. Daisy was found roaming the streets of south Texas by Mexico; She was super skinny and you could just see the defeated look in her face. Thankfully, a good Samaritan saw her and couldn’t just turn away from her. She has been in the care of a sanctuary for 6 months now. She is a very relaxed dog. She just wants to lay out in the sun, play a little bit, relax and just hang out. Daisy would do great in a home that is a bit more relaxed and wants a dog that is very casual but VERY loving. She does great on car rides! Her favorite thing to eat are hot dogs. The foster says one of her favorite things about Daisy is that she doesn’t destroy toys, so all toys survive around Daisy, SO FAR. She doesn’t really know commands, but she loves to follow you around,and just wants to find her perfect humans. Please consider giving old lady Daisy a chance at her forever home. Daisy is fixed (spayed/neutered), heart worm positive (they have received the 30-day course of antibiotics and need to stay on heart worm prevention for 12-16 months and be retested then), current on age-appropriate vaccinations, current on flea/tick and heart worm prevention, microchipped, current on de-wormer, and will receive a clean bill of health from a licensed veterinarian prior to transport.

Story
Meet Lola — A Survivor Looking for Her Forever Home Lola 1 year old 42 lbs Cattle Dog & Kelpie Mix & Husky Mix Lola is a sweet, energetic girl who has been through more than any dog should ever have to endure — and yet, she still loves people, dogs, toys, and life. Lola was found abandoned on a street in South Texas, in Penitas, left to suffer after being hit by a car. She was in tremendous pain and needed surgery to repair her leg. Tragically, all of her siblings died. Lola and her mom were the only ones who survived. Her body needed time to heal, but so did her soul. After three months in a loving foster home, Lola is now safe, healing, and ready for the next chapter of her life. And you would never know what she went through by watching her today — she acts like nothing ever happened! About Lola Lola is: Dog friendly — she absolutely loves other dogs! Cat friendly Best with older children who enjoy an active dog Crate trained A lover of water Toy obsessed Very energetic and playful An ideal companion for an active, adventurous family Sweet, affectionate, and full of life Lola is still working on her leash manners and needs continued leash training, but she is smart and eager to learn. Lola's Dream Home: Lola would thrive with someone who wants a true adventure buddy — someone who loves hiking, exploring, playing outside, and keeping an energetic dog mentally and physically active. She would love a family who will continue helping her build confidence, learn good manners, and discover all the wonderful things life has to offer. After everything Lola has survived, she deserves more than simply a home. She deserves a family who will show her that she was never meant to be left behind. Lola survived the worst. Now she just needs someone to give her the best. Could you be Lola's forever? Lola is spayed, heart worm negative, current on age-appropriate vaccinations, current on flea/tick and heart worm prevention, microchipped, current on de-wormer, and will receive a clean bill of health from a licensed veterinarian prior to transport.

Story
Meet Adora 💕🐾 Adora is a gorgeous 22-pound, 1.5-year-old girl who absolutely loves to be loved! She is full grown! Adora came to us from a local gas station along the Texas/Mexico border, where she had likely spent almost her entire life. She was not spayed, and gas station employees reached out because a group of male dogs were constantly chasing her. We simply couldn’t let her continue living that way, so we stepped in and got this sweet girl to safety in early July 2026. And now? Her foster says Adora is pretty close to the perfect dog. ❤️ 🐶 What is Adora like? Adora is a calmer girl overall, but she gets incredibly excited when her humans give her attention. We think she may be making up for lost time after receiving so little individual attention during her life at the gas station. She is a true Velcro girl who wants to be wherever her people are. She is incredibly loyal, affectionate, and eager to please. Loyalty might as well be her middle name! • Cats? Great with cats! • Dogs? She loves other dogs, but she would also be perfectly happy as your one-and-only. • Children? We think she would be WONDERFUL with children. • Leash trained? Yes! • Crate trained? Yes! • Knows any commands? She knows how to sit and is very much a people pleaser. • 💕 Her best quirk? Adora has figured out the ultimate way to make sure her humans never leave without giving her some love. If she thinks you're about to walk out the door, she'll throw herself right in front of you, roll onto her back, and demand belly rubs! And honestly? She's very committed to this routine. She WILL get her belly rubs before you go. 😂💕 🌳 Adventure buddy or couch companion? Adora would love to explore the world with you and would make a wonderful adventure partner. But she is equally happy hanging out at home, relaxing with her humans, or enjoying the backyard. If you're in an apartment, we'd ask that you be prepared to give her plenty of activity and enrichment — and doggy daycare could be a great option for her. Most importantly, Adora wants her people. A home where someone is around more often than not would be ideal for this affectionate girl. 🏡 Her forever-home Wishlist Adora is crate trained and is currently working on mastering her house training. Her forever family should understand that she is still learning and be patient and willing to give her the time and consistency she needs. In return, you'll get an incredibly loving, loyal, affectionate companion who is just so happy to finally have people of her own. After spending so much of her life simply surviving, Adora is ready to learn what it means to be cherished. She is ready for belly rubs, adventures, cuddles, and a family who will never let her feel forgotten again. ❤️ Adora is ready to be your Velcro girl. Is she the one you've been waiting for? Adora is spayed, heart worm negative, current on age-appropriate vaccinations, current on flea/tick and heart worm prevention, microchipped, current on de-wormer, and will receive a clean bill of health from a licensed veterinarian prior to transport.
