Story
Juniper truly is a remarkable dog. It is estimated that she is about four years old. Found on the streets of Houston, she has over come so much. Juniper is deaf and mostly blind but that doesn't stop her. She loves playing with her bouncy ball. She seems to be solar charged. She is most goofy and playful in the morning then chills out almost immediately (to begin one of her many naps of the day). But she will get very excited if she smells her leash coming out. She LOVES meeting new people, and will greet them with a down dog bow and lots of full body wiggles and helicopter tail wags. With other dogs in the home, she either plays with them or ignores them. Her only hurdle is that she is resource aggressive towards food (so feeding her alone is ideal) and sadly, me. She has decided one of her owner is a resource and one is a threat. She would be amazing with a single adult parent or a couple who are patient and ready to learn her touch cues as well as let her feel safe over time.

Story
Emily is a sweet and well mannered, medium energy 30lb / 8yr old female that loves to fetch, go for walks, and cuddle. She has been very low maintenance with no known health issues for the last 6 years of ownership. Emily lives best with at least one of her human owners being a female, and most likely as an only pet or possibly with a cat. Emily needs a new quieter home because she is afraid of the neighbors kids and reminds her current owner of a recent divorce. She was adopted in 2020 as a stray from Arkansas with heartworm but made a full recovery that same year. She is now well adapted to her owners working standard 8 hour workdays, spending time together before/after work and on weekends.

Story
Cecil is a 6 year old blue Merle Aussie. My parents got him as a puppy in 2020 but due to major medical setbacks in the last year, they can no longer keep him. He loves his humans and wants to follow or stay beside them all day. He is house trained and knows basic commands. He currently lives with another much older dog, and they are very close. He would rather go for a walk than play with a toy.Cecil is a very special dog with a quirky personality and is incredibly loyal and devoted to those he loves. He is also anxious in new circumstances, and we recommend experienced, patient dog owners with a home and yard. He is very cuddly and playful but takes time to open up to others. When anxious, he can whine, bark (loudly) and has occasionally nipped strangers that approach him too fast. He is also very trainable and does fine with other dogs and humans at doggy daycare. Cecil has a lot to offer for the right fit. Please reach out if you are interested or know someone that is.

Story
Meet Roo! ❤️🐾 Roo is a stunning, incredibly smart girl who forms strong bonds with the people she trusts. Once you're in her circle, she's affectionate, silly, playful, and loves snuggles, pets, and belly rubs. Her foster family describes her as simply “so easy to love.” Roo is active, food motivated, and loves to learn. She already knows several cues and has been doing great with clicker training and positive reinforcement. She’s also a toy fanatic who loves balls, sticks, rope toys, puzzles, and zoomies. And her absolute favorite? Water! Give Roo a kiddie pool and she’ll leap right in, chase her toys, and even blow bubbles underwater while fishing for a ball. Roo is looking for a quiet, adult-only home with an experienced adopter who can give her structure, predictability, and time to build trust. She can be sensitive and reactive to unfamiliar people, dogs, sounds, and movement, so a home with few visitors and continued training will help her thrive. Roo is a true homebody who is happiest enjoying the comfort and predictability of her own space, rather than joining her family for trips, outings, or travel. She is fully house trained and would love a fenced yard where she can safely run and play. Roo needs to be the only pet in her home, with no dogs or cats. Roo isn't looking for everyone—she's looking for her people. For someone willing to earn her trust, this special girl has so much love, laughter, and personality to share. ❤️🐾
