Story
Odin came to us having had both of his eyes just removed at the shelter as they were both in extremely rough shape with several issues. He was a stray that came in with another dog but his buddy did have to be humanely let go at the shelter d/t having a tumor. Odin seems ok with other dogs but with having completely lost his eyes he does need to be around them for a bit before he is ok with them and gets used to them. He does seem to prefer female dogs so far vs male dogs-though the male dog we have had him near was in tact and just recently neutered so that may effect that energy. But Odin LOVES people and such a sweet love to humans! Odin has adjusted GREAT to life without his eyes, much better than a human would, and gets around amazingly! He likes to be outside but truly he likes to be where he knows and can sense you are near. He comes to his name and you can guide him along verbally and his hearing seems to be intact. He does need to lose some weight so we are hoping the more active he is now that his sutures have come out and he has been cleared to be active that that will help! He does also seem to be mostly potty trained now that he has gotten used to the routine and walks well on a leash and is easy to redirect and walk along! He can be vocal when you leave him and we did have him on Trazodone when he first came to us with lots of crying and pacing happening, but again now that he has learned the routine that seems to be diminishing and we have since taken him off Trazodone though he may need it to get used to a new home. He also may not like being behind barriers as an Australian Shepherd so that could also not be helping! But he does seem to have some separation anxiety that we feel like is getting better. Because he can be vocal we dont think he would be appropriate in an apartment setting.  July 10, 2026, 10:03 am

Story
These four beautiful Aussie mix puppies are around 8 months old and are finally getting to enjoy what every puppy deserves—a safe place, full bellies, and lots of love. Now they're ready to find the forever families they've been waiting for! They may be a little shy when you first meet them, but give them a little time and patience, and you'll watch their sweet personalities blossom. Once they feel comfortable, they're happy, playful pups who are discovering just how much fun life can be. They're still learning how to be dogs—figuring out what toys are, enjoying playtime, and building confidence with every new experience. It's been a joy watching them realize that people can be kind and that life is meant to be full of fun and adventure. Like any young dog, they'll continue to benefit from training, socialization, and lots of positive experiences. In return, you'll gain a loyal companion who will never forget the love and patience you gave them. If you're looking for a sweet, resilient pup to grow with, one of these Aussie mixes could be the perfect addition to your family! Local adoption fee is $350(in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $650 (includes transport to your area)

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
Woodrow "Woody" is such a sweet guy and he came to us Heartworm positive and had an injury on his back leg that required a modified TPLO surgery and he has since been through both the HW treatment and the surgery. we have since discovered that he does have a Patella that is trying to Luxate but we will be trying a physical therapy intervention vs a second surgery in hopes that building the muscles back up will help us avoid that! He is coming soon as we determine his next path with that-July 10, 2026, 10:03 am
