Story
Meet your new little sidekick!
Peet’s Sweets is estimated at nine weeks old, this chunky ball of fluff is the perfect mix of playful puppy energy and laid-back charm. His beautiful tricolored coat and laid-back personality makes us suspect he may be an Australian Shepherd/Lab mix, but with rescue puppies there’s always a little mystery in the breed department—which just adds to the fun of watching them grow!

He’s a curious little explorer who enjoys checking out the world around him, but he’s also surprisingly easygoing for such a young pup. After some playtime and puppy adventures, he’s happiest when he can curl up and snuggle with his siblings for a cozy nap.
At this perfect puppy age, he’s ready to learn all the good things—training, routines, and how to be the very best companion. His adaptable personality makes him a wonderful candidate for a variety of homes that are ready for the joy (and fun!) of raising a puppy.
Peets is still very young and will need a family committed to the time, training, and socialization that puppyhood requires. Puppies are discovering the world day by day, and those early experiences play a big role in shaping their personalities and confidence as they grow.
Establishing routine, structure, boundaries, and positive socialization from the start is incredibly important. We require adoptive families to commit to crate training beginning as soon as their new puppy arrives home. Crate training helps support potty training, teaches healthy rest and energy management, and plays an important role in raising a well-balanced, confident adult dog.
If you’re looking for a fluffy little best friend to grow up with your family, this sweet boy might just be your perfect match.

At our 2-acre Texas based property, we assess every animal with trainers on staff, we modify behavior as needed, and create individualized behavior plans to help prepare dogs for their future families including crate training, potty training, leash walking, etc. Our fosters are able to attend group training and socialization play groups helping them stay confident, well rounded, and adoption ready. Our on-site trainers are dedicated to each dog’s growth, and we enjoy seeing their progress!
We go above and beyond to ensure every animal receives exceptional care. Veterinarians consistently praise our medical standards. From routine care to advanced treatments, each dog receives personalized attention. Hard costs for a healthy dog range from $804-$920; heartworm-positive dogs or those needing specialized care can exceed $2,000+. Adoption fees help cover a portion of these expenses, but without government funding, we rely on fundraising to bridge the gap—ranging from $100–$1,000+ per dog.
Our adoption fees reflect the extensive care and resources that go into each animal we save. The adoption fee is a donation to the mission and goes far beyond getting a fully vetted pet.
