My personality

My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Boris is a gentle old soul that was picked up by Animal Control walking down one of the most dangerous highways in America - Pacific Coast Highway in California. The fact that he was not hit by a car or truck is a miracle and then, when he found himself on the shelter euthanasia list, another miracle happened when a kind soul rescued him. After being rescued he was sent on his way to Texas to our Ranch. Boris is deaf and estimated to be around 10-11 yrs. old, He needs a family to let him live out the short time he has left. If you have it in your heart to adopt this gentle old giant, please complete our application below.

You will not be sorry, I promise you.

Interview

Phone call with applicants. Then call all references and their vet reference.

3.
Home Check

Once we complete a Zillow and review Property Tax sites, we make arrangements for home check or Facetime of the property.

4.
Meet the Pet

We are a Matchmaker then people picking a pup, so once all of the above is done, we do a Facetime with several potential dogs.

5.
Approve Application

We are very diligent in the approval process but once all of our criteria is met, we send an e-mail notifying them of adoption approval.

6.
Sign Adoption Contract

They choose the dog they want, sign the contract, pay donation and we arrange for them to pick up the dog, transport.

Additional adoption info

We are looking for the right dog to go to the right home based on the information they provide to us on their application as well as the phone interview. Since we deal with large breed dogs only, there are times when we do not have the right match and we will refer them to a partner rescue.

Go meet their pets

At the present time, we do not have a facility to have adoption events at our Texas location. We are in the process of purchasing our own property and once that is complete, we will hold adoption events. We are also dealing with large breed dogs.

More about this rescue

Animal House Project is a 501 c3 Nonprofit organization that operates several programs under our umbrella: a companion pet food pantry in the hopes to keep companion pets at home and out of shelters; a rescue pet food pantry - providing donated pet food to grass root small rescues who are struggling; low cost spay and neuter; and, a Large Breed Rescue.

The Rescue has been a passion of our Board President for many years and, in 2021, after seeing many large breed dogs being put down, the time had come to open the program. Our primary breed is Akitas, but we have also rescued Chows, Pyrenees and mixes.
