Story
Rocky is a 75lb love bug he just wants to be with his person. He is strong and will react to other animals which is why I clicked not good with other dogs. With proper training he would like to play with other dogs anything smaller then him I would not recommend. He loves to go camping and play in the water. His is crate trained also goes in very willingly. His special needs is just he needs special food or he will get hot spots and vomit. This is not fault of his I have to rehome but I'm moving in with family for health reasons and can't take him.

Story
Monty is a great name for a great dog like me ;) I have the Monty Python kind of humor... goofy and sweet! But, don't mess with my crate! That really is my only "pet: peeve!! I was found on the streets 2 years ago and was adopted as a pup... however, I became the boss in the house and didn't like anyone entering the house that I didn't know :( SO..... Back to the rescue, because they won't give up on me!! So here I am and I have really adjusted to the environment and new people meeting me and treats and lots of love. AND the crew here basically has determined that I need a family/adopters that will be in charge of the house. Someone I can trust to protect me so I don't have to!! I am vocal in my crate, so my crate needs to be away from the common areas so I can relax and not meet everyone that stops by. Once I settle into my new home I will follow your lead! I am a gorgeous boy, with caramel and milk chocolate highlights in my soft fur. I want to please my family and go on all kinds of adventures! I am awesome out and about, meeting new people and new friends :D I hope you will look into my eyes, the windows to my soul, and see the HOPE I have to find my own home again! The rescue is great because I got a second chance, but I REALLY want a home!! Local adoption only $200 (in TX)

Story
Nebula, a truly beautiful dog. While her past holds some hardship – she was found living on the streets with her seven puppies – her spirit shines through. Nebula is a sweet and beautiful girl, possessing a gentle nature that will blossom with the right amount of patience and understanding. Nebula's intelligence is evident in her quick grasp of commands. She's already house-trained and crate-trained, demonstrating a willingness to learn and adapt. She enjoys walks immensely, exhibiting a calm and easy-going temperament. What Nebula truly desires is a loving home where she can finally feel safe and secure. While her street life has made her initially cautious around new people, once she builds trust, her playful puppy-like energy resurfaces. It's a beautiful transformation to witness. We believe Nebula would thrive in a quiet and patient home, ideally with someone experienced in working with dogs who have experienced trauma. With the right care, she'll become the most loyal and loving companion imaginable. If you're interested in learning more about Nebula and potentially offering her a loving forever home, please don't hesitate to contact us. $200 In State Adoption Fee (in Texas) $400 Out of State Fee (includes Transportation to your area) $50 Temporary fuel surcharge.

Story
Abbey came to us in February of 2023 and has been the sweetest dog. She is crate trained from a puppy and she loves to chew on bones. She is high energy and needs more attention than we are able to give while trying to raise three young children. She needs room to run and would be a great farm dog. She is potty trained and has no known allergies. She is great with other dogs and she has been sad since we had to put down our older dog of 14 years old. We absolutely love her and want her to have the best home. It saddens us to do this but we have her best interest at heart to find her a great home.

Story
We got Sadie as a 9-week old puppy from a family in the area. She is around 6 1/2 months old. She is a good dog, but we're finding we are just on the go too much and she spends way too much time in the kennel. She loves to play, especially with larger dogs, and enjoys chasing after thrown things and playing tug. She does well in the house, but will tend to jump on our cat if we're not watching her. She doesn't hurt the cat, just pins him. She will (normally) sit on command and is working on lay, shake and roll over. She is in good shape and likes to go for walks. In the right situation she can be off leash, but most of the time still needs to be on one.

Story
Nanook is a stunning 6-ish-year-old rescue, who came into LCR's care after trading hands several times and living in less than ideal circumstances. Since LCR took on Nanook ten weeks ago, he has successfully navigated his foster-care home with ease. He has acclimated to living amongst a large pack and worked his way into the resident dynamics smoothly. After a life of uncertainty and instability, Nanook does exhibit some dominate and controlling behaviors with other canines but is readily redirected. He attempts to herd and control pack dynamics but ultimately appears to desire playful interaction and acceptance. While in fostercare, Nanook has been exposed to cats and could "possibly" come to accept and cohabitate with fellow felines--given a slow, contained, supervised, and patient cohabitation approach. Nanook is not suited for small livestock or young children under ten. Yet, while this boy can be a bit spicy in play, pack, and human interactions, he lives to cuddle, loves his walks, and possesses the qualities of being an amazing companion!!! He deserves and is waiting for so much more than what he's been offered thus far.

Story
BEAR~ needs to be in another home ~ Hi my name is Bear! I am a Border Collie mix. I was born on October 31, 2021 so I'm 3 years old. He is neutered and up to date on my shots, had a dental last February and am totally healthy. I love hikes and walks a lot, especially to go slow and sniff everything I can. I wear a gentle lead for my walks and I do great! I love to be right by my humans all the time but I can be left alone at home as well with no problems. I don't mind going outside but I don't hangout there too long unless I have some company. I love car rides and I am quiet and relaxed the whole time. I love dog parks but when there's a ton of dogs I get a little overwhelmed. I do like to chase kitties so it might be best for me to not have any kitty friends at my new home. I love kids and any strangers I meet 🥰 I'm pretty much perfect! Currently I'm in a tough situation because my older doggy brother has some bad health issues now and he attacks me every time he sees me 🥺 so we have to be separated all the time and it's been really hard. Even with different medications and training that my family has tried he still hasn't gotten any better. I would love to find an active family that would love a wonderful family dog 🥰 Apply at www.hopeshavenfriends.org

Story
Meet Kage, the ultimate good boy who's just so darn cute! This gentleman is a pro at house living, fully potty trained, and a master at walking on a leash and harness. He's a social butterfly, getting along famously with other dogs and loving those backyard playdates with his pals. Kage is a stunning mix of Lab and Border Collie, the perfect blend of intelligence and family-friendliness. He's just the right size, like a mini Lab or a slightly larger Border Collie. When you find two fantastic things that go together like peanut butter and jelly, you celebrate! Kage is that winning combo, and now you can celebrate by making him a cherished member of your family. His temperament is pure gold - sweet as honey with everyone he meets. Now, here's the scoop: Kage is a special needs pup, and he's looking for someone who can be with him about 90 percent of the time. Storms, rain, and loud noises send him into severe panic attacks, and he's been known to chew through walls when anxiety strikes. Crates aren't his jam because of past storm-related trauma. He's also dealing with seizures, so he's on medication for that. Kage would thrive in a local adoption, and he's best as a single dog with no cats or small animals around. He's a wonderful companion for older kids, and he loves nothing more than cuddles and long walks. He's got the whole house training thing down too. His foster mom adores him and has prepared him for his forever family as best she can. Now, the ball is in your court. Remember, when you adopt Kage, you're not just bringing home a good boy; you're giving him the loving, understanding home he deserves. Don't shop, adopt, because Kage's life depends on it! Local adoption fee is $200 (in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $400 (includes transport to your area - $50 Temporary Fuel Charge will be added)
