Story

Grizzly is a male Yorkshire terrier mix, around 4 years old, and weighs 14 pounds. He was rescued from the streets of a rural small town. The pictures show his natural hairstyle. That is as long as it gets - so extensive grooming is not required. Grizzly is crate-trained and comes when he is called (mostly). He rides well in a vehicle and walks on a leash. Grizzly is a typical Yorkie, and his name is fitting. He is vocal - whining when he wants something, and guarding the yard from threats he sees on the street. Grizzly likes to terrorize the less confident, bigger dogs. This does get him into trouble, and we are trying to train him not to do this. Grizzly will follow you around and must be wherever you are. His favorite spot is next to you or in your lap. Grizzly loves toys, treats, exploring the yard, and playing with other dogs. Grizzly thinks he needs to mark his territory against other males, so housetraining will be easier without other male dogs in the house. He will wear a male wrap, and we are happy to send 2 large packages of male wraps with him when he is adopted. Grizzly is neutered, tattooed, fully vaccinated (DAPPvL2, Bordatella, rabies), and microchipped. He has been treated for heartworms and is now heartworm-negative. Grizzly receives monthly heartworm and flea prevention. Grizzly is available for adoption to approved applicants. He is located in Texas, but can be transported after he is adopted. His adoption fee includes the cost of ground transport by a reputable and trusted transport company to Brattleboro or White River Junction, VT. Please email 2manydogstx@gmail.com if you would like to adopt this little boy.

Story

This baby girl came from an unplanned/unwanted pregnancy, If not rescued the end result would not have been good outcome. She is currently on a dewormer and has not been to a vet due to just getting her. She is around 7 weeks old and loves people, snuggles, eating, going on car rides and playing outside. I have 4 other big dogs and 4 social cats and she is fine with all of them. She is pretty good on a leash when wearing a harness, getting better at potty training but hates the rain. She really likes to her freedom and loves to just be by your side so being in a kennel is not her thing. My hopes for her is that she goes to a family that is home all day and will include her on all there activities.

Miller

Labrador Retriever/American Pit Bull Terrier

Male, 4 yrs

Pittsford, VT

Size

(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)

Details

Story

Miller is a 4-year-old yellow Lab and pit bull mix with a big personality and even bigger dance moves — we call him Tippy Tap because he does the happiest little dance when he gets excited! He’s goofy, strong, and full of energy. While Miller didn’t get along with the other dogs in his previous home, he did well with a dog who matched his playful vibe — so a meet and greet could be a great idea if you’ve got the right pup. He has shown food aggression with other dogs, but never with people. Miller walks best on a prong collar due to his strength, and he’ll thrive with someone who can give him structure, guidance, and plenty of fun. He’s a joyful, affectionate guy who just needs the right match to help him shine.

Titan

American Pit Bull Terrier

Male, 3 yrs 6 mos

Pittsford, VT

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Story

Titan is a 3-year-old Pit Bull with a big personality packed into a smaller frame. This sweet boy may have had a rough start in life—he gets a little tense when first approached, likely due to past mistreatment—but with a bit of patience, he relaxes and shows his affectionate side. Titan loves playing ball! He knows the “drop it” command and will politely wait for you to pick up the ball—no grabbing or tug-of-war needed. His gentle play style makes fetch a joy. He’s neutral toward other dogs and strangers, and while he’s generally well-behaved, he’s still working on his manners—especially around people he knows and gets excited to see (he can be a bit jumpy). With consistent guidance, he’ll thrive. Titan is a sweet, happy boy who just wants to please. He’s looking for a loving home where he can continue to build trust and confidence. If you’re looking for a loyal companion with a heart of gold, Titan might be your perfect match.

Meet Brazos, Trinity, and Concho - Born in Love, Ready for a Home! These 3 are part of the Kerrville litter born in care and showered with love from day one.

They’re smart, playful, and fun-loving, working hard on potty and crate training, sleeping soundly through the night, and showing off just how sweet and snuggly they can be. They may not look exactly like classic labs, but they’ve heard labs are famous for their love of food… and trust us, these three are already living up to that reputation! Each pup has their own unique spark, but all share the same goal: to bring laughter, loyalty, and love to their new homes.
