Story
Introducing Zeke, a truly remarkable pup whose heartwarming spirit and playful energy are ready to light up a new home. Zeke is a handsome, resilient boy who, through no fault of his own, found himself searching for a new home. He's more than ready to embark on his next chapter, seeking a loving, forever family to call his own. Zeke is a bundle of joyful energy, known for his silliness and ability to bring a smile to anyone's face. While he may start off shy, it doesn't take long for his true personality to shine through. He quickly becomes an enthusiastic playmate who thrives on the company of other dogs and will gleefully encourage them to play. Zeke is a smart and well-mannered companion. He is potty-trained and comfortable in his crate. He also knows basic commands like "sit" and "go to your room," and his eagerness to please makes him a joy to train further. While he’s working on managing his excitement (which sometimes results in enthusiastic leaps!), his good intentions are always clear. Walks are a highlight of his day, offering him a chance to explore and burn off some of that youthful energy. His barks will let you know precisely when he needs to go outside or when he hears you approaching the door. If you’re seeking an active, affectionate, and charming dog who promises boundless love and entertainment, Zeke could be the perfect addition to your home. Local adoption fee is $200(in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $450 (includes transport to your area)

Almond Joy, mmmm. A little nutty, a lotta sweet. I am made of love, sunshine and SUGAR!! Here is what my foster has to say: "Almond Joy came in as a mama with one pup. Now that that's past her, she is living her own puppyhood again! She loves to play play play and run run run! She looks at you with her soft, brown eyes and melts your heart! She just really wants a soft place to land. If that is your home, she is ALL IN! Almond Joy does not have to have another dog but she really would LOVE to have a gentle, playful friend."

Hi, my name is Olive. I’m the sweetest girl you’ll ever meet. I love hugs. Like, put my arms around your neck and HUG you. I am super smart and have already learned to potty outside, sit, “kennel up” and much more. My foster mom has 2 kids, another dog and a cat. I’m so good with all of them although I don’t understand why the cat doesn’t want hugs. I’m trying hard to win her over though. Treats and naps are my favorite thing in the whole world. I started off life with my foster mom very skinny and I’m doing my best to fatten up a bit. I’m so excited to find my forever home. I’ll be your best friend! Local Only adoption fee is $200 (in TX)

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
Hi, my name is Blaze, and I’m looking for my furever home! I am currently being fostered in Nashville, TN. I am an Australian Shepherd, 4 1/2 years old and weigh approximately 70 lbs. I am neutered, vetted, microchipped, and fully up-to-date on shots. I came from a family with another dog and a child, but they unfortunately moved and could not take me. I have the sweetest face and eyes. My foster mom even accidentally calls me ‘Bear’ sometimes because I can be like a big teddy bear but with gentle petting and no rough play. Sometimes the neighbors even say I look like Beethoven from the 90s movie. I may be a little distrustful of strangers at first (I might even bark), but once I know there is no danger, I just want love and to hang around my humans. I’ll follow you room-to-room, but I have no desire to get on the furniture or the bed. If you need me to go to my crate, just tell me to and I’ll do it! My favorite place to sleep is on the floor next to your bed. I know how to “sit” very well. I am a very sweet cuddlebug but I do get nervous and howl when left alone in a new place. After a few days, I’m usually good! I LOVE to go on walks, and step right into my harness with joy but because of my size, I tire out easily so I prefer short to medium-length walks. Keep working with me and I’ll get stronger! I also have trouble sometimes because my back leg and knees have some arthritis. I will benefit from some joint supplements. I’m good on a leash, but sometimes I like to chase birds! I’ve had a foster brother for the past three weeks and we tolerate each other. We do fine together, until he tries to steal my toys… then I growl at him. I’ve learned to play tug of war with my humans and I am a big fan. I’ll also enjoy chasing a ball or toy that I can bring back to you. I’d probably thrive in a home with a small family or even a single person. I’m protective, but I do love meeting new people. Please fill out this application if you want your home to be Blaze’s furever home! https://www.australianshepherdsfurever.org/old-adoption-application There is an additional $20 microchip fee which includes registration and transfer to his new furever family.

Story
Agnes is an incredibly sweet girl who loves to show you her stuffies she likes to carry around in her mouth-its adorable!!! She seems good with dogs and shows interest in play but also loves to just be around people. She does seem to have an issue with larger white dogs that have a certain look (she had one be aggressive with her) but a conversation would be had about that. Other than that she seems to like most dogs! She went on a breakout over the holidays and road tripped to Florida and did amazing!!! Agnes did have a decent sized tumor on her front leg we had checked out and unfortunately it was cancerous and removed and they did not get good margins on it. She also recently developed a dislocating hawk joint so she will be seeing the specialist for that. She was also HW positive when she came to us but has now been through the entire treatment phase for that. We will keep her "coming soon" until after we know more from the specialist.February 6, 2026, 5:54 pm
