Story
Ms Lulu is quite the character! She is happy and funny and Loves to run and run. When she stops, she stops! She took over the house and yard the first day protecting and keeping all threats away from the fence. She is a snuggler and will sit on the couch and sleep in the big person bed or an open crate. She does prowl and protect through the night. She is house trained and uses a doggy door. Lulu is okay with small dogs but maybe no dog under 20lbs until proper intros are made - otherwise male or female dogs are fine. No idea about cats. She is a cattle dog and seems as if she may have been trained to herd beyond what comes natural? She got out of the gate once and was fine with the goat and chickens. Cattle and horses would be safe. She is an active working dog who would love an active lifestyle if you can provide it. She loves the water too. She will herd children by nipping on their heels so maybe a bit older children who understand that's just what her breed does and won't cry. She does pretty well on a leash, rides in the car like a pro, loves puppies because she was a mom a time or two. Her tongue hangs out and her jaw is a bit off (maybe birth defect or an injury) but it does not affect her appetite! She is spayed, HW negative and up to date on shots. Lulu is a really sweet dog and wants a home of her own. please apply at www.krrtx.org/forms Please note Lulu is located in San Antonio, TX and is available for transport to your location through Your Tx Rescue Connection transport service. The fee includes adoption fee and transportation fee.

Story
Australian Shepherd/ Lab is the closest breed we can guess on her. Sorry we don't have good photos of sweet Sally. She was in foster in Texas since a puppy! She is totally trained with playing with a playgroup of dogs several times/day. Finally her turn at about 2 years to be adopted. ! House and potty trained!!! woof woof. Super affectionate sweet loving dog. She is a little shy at first, but opens up quickly. Has done great with other all other dogs even young puppies when done with proper introductions. She is with a rescue that is friends of Lufkin TX Kurth Memorial Animal Shelter friends. loving sweet sweet pup t is nearly impossible to say the breeds but her brother did have some Great Pyrenees in his DNA test. All of her siblings were adopted as puppies, its long been Sally's time to find her FOREVER home. https://shaynesrescue.com/adoption-application/ If interested we would have you speak with her rescuer. Many dogs are impossible to say the breeds but it is anyone's guess. As we know, mutts statistically speaking will live longer and have less vet bills!. All of our Lufkin Kurth Texas dogs were hand selected and are literally their favorites. Everyone who has adopted adores their dogs. She will totally win you over. , Please do apply!!! All our dogs are spay/neutered, current on DHPP and rabies shots, microchipped, tested hw negative, so all of that is done. Our adoptions include professional dog rescue transport to WA and health certificates (vet visit just prior to coming to WA). Any questions, please email us at shaynesrescue@gmail.com Best to include your phone number and good times to call too!

Story
MEET VADER – A true gentleman! Are you looking for a dog who is gentle and sweet, with soulful eyes? Vader is the perfect combination of active companion and couch potato! He will sprawl out in front of the couch while his foster family watches TV. Vader also loves to go on casual walks, energetic jogs and long hikes- no pulling the leash! He copies your mood and just enjoys being with company. He truly is a sweetie. When he’s really very happy, his tail doesn’t just wag, it goes in circles like a helicopter! Vader is a beautiful 3-year-old Border Collie mix. He weighs 55 lbs. He is potty trained and has learned crate training while in foster. Vader knows how to sit, down, up, speak, fetch, and walk nicely on a leash. He learns quickly and is eager to please. Vader is a true gentleman! VADER DOES WELL WITH: • Young Kids – Vader has lived with a 1-year-old baby/toddler and a 12-year-old child very happily. • Adults – Vader is friendly with adults. VADER WOULD NEED HELP WITH: • Learning to trust – When Vader is in a new situation, it takes him a little time to become comfortable. Once you build that relationship, he blossoms! • Other dogs – Vader had a female Golden Retriever friend at his last house and has done well with his current foster’s son’s dogs (a male and a female, both large). He has not been around small dogs. When Vader first came into HUNAH, we were told that he was reactive on leash. We think that he is more excited when seeing dogs. He turns back to tug on his leash, which shows the ability to redirect his excitement. We believe that a patient owner could work through this issue. Vader would need to meet other dogs in the household before placement. • Cats – Fast movement excites Vader. He has chased cats, so a cat-free home or a very slow, structured introduction would be best. VADER IS UNKNOWN WITH: • Horses and Livestock – Vader has no experience. THE REST OF THE IMPORTANT DETAILS Vader is neutered, microchipped, and up to date on his vaccinations. Vader is currently in Sequim, Washington. His adoption fee is $400. If you are interested in adopting Vader and are pre-approved, please contact the adoption team at hunahapps@gmail.com.

Story
Ponto is a very special, loving boy. He is incredibly sweet and friendly around all creatures. He is 50% mini poodle and 50% australian-shepard (we did a DNA test). He is 3 years old and still has abundant energy. His new home should understand that he needs to get his wiggles out at least twice a day, going beyond a standard walk. His herding instincts are strong and will always want to be by your side. Ponto has a fuzzy coat that will require frequent brushing to avoid matts. We like to get him groomed at least once a month, as his hair grows very quickly. He is up to date with his shots, has no known medical or allergy issues, gets regular checkups at his vet, and is overall a very healthy dog. He was raised around toddlers, so he is very child friendly. He was also raised with another dog about his size, whom he gets along with very well. We will only part with Ponto to the most perfect home. We'll want to know a lot about you and your home life before making a decision.

Not good with kids, Not good with dogs, Not good with cats, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained,
Story
Lucky&Mojo were rescued&are currently being rehabilitated before adoption. Lucky warmed up quickly&learned leash walking fast. He is vocal, dislikes being kenneled,&still needs work on house manners&potty training. He is sweet but does not get along with other dogs&will require a home with absolutely no other dogs besides Mojo. He is fearful in the car but does not get carsick. Mojo arrived extremely fearful—unable to be leashed, approached, or taken outside to potty,&would nip if cornered. He also experienced severe carsickness. He has improved greatly&now allows leashing and petting, but still has low confidence, struggles with new situations,&relies heavily on Lucky for comfort. Both dogs came with ticks(now treated)and are wearing Seresto collars. They will only be adopted to an experienced adult-only, patient home with references, background checks,&a safety plan for Mojo. They must stay together&be the only dogs in the home. Adoption includes a training package. Contract Reqd!
