My story

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

NAME: Picasso Shakespeare
BREED: Labrador Retriever/Mixed Breed (Medium)
MALE: Neutered
AGE: ~9 months (DOB 03/03/2024)
WEIGHT: 28lbs

POSITIVE TRAITS: Not excessively energetic; is playful, will get zoomies outdoors. Would not require walks/daily walks, adequate and ample paytime/stimulation would suffice.

NEEDS & LIMITS: Very curious and is A CHEWER. Still very much a puppy and currently requires supervision and structure.

FUN FACTS: Loves to have nightly screeching sessions by himself. Floor, bed, dog bed-doesn't matter, he will thrash about, legs flailing in the air and screech his heart out.

PERSONALITY: Chill, playful, curious. Picks up when other dogs are not interested in playtime. Becomes sad and whiny when cats won't play with him.

GOOD WITH CATS: Indoors. Outside he will chase or whine/bark at them, along with other critters (squirrels, birds, etc.)

GOOD WITH DOGS: All sizes

GOOD WITH KIDS: Unknown

POTTY TRAINED: wears belly bands well for training

CRATE TRAINED: sleeps and eats in crate.

FAVORITE TOYS: long toys that can be shaken and Jouhound Rip Roarin Tough Toys

Living on streets with mum and four siblings; he and one sibling survived. Picasso was being picked on/attacked by other dogs including his own mum and brother and so he began breaking into foster's yard to seek safety and shelter and food (his ribs had begun to protrude). For the first four days of becoming a GDR dog he crashed in his crate, sleeping most of the time, relieved to be safe and fed and cared for.
Quiet dog that occasionally barks.
Currently has three senior foster siblings, one 3-legged and another with hip dysplasia; he has not had any issue with being too rough with them or knocking into them.

Local adoption fee is $250 (in TX)
Out of state adoption fee is $550 (includes transport to your area)

Additional adoption info

Adoption application required.

Adoptions applications are checked by contacting references and veterinarians of those with pets to ensure our pups go to the best homes possible. We work hard to place dogs into the right families, but sometimes we realize the fit isn't quite working out for the adopter or the pet..

If an adoption does not work out and we have room to take the dog back into the rescue, we will. However, the sheer number of needy animals in TX usually means we become full quickly after the dog is adopted.

So, in those cases we will post the animal locally, and help the adopter screen applicants and facilitate finding another adoptive home for the pet in your area.

Adoption application

Go meet their pets

We are a TEXAS based rescue who transport regularly to this area. Our dogs are in TEXAS and will be transported to you if you adopt from us.

Our pets are posted on our website, and most live in homes with their fosters. We live with our foster dogs to get to know them in a home setting and to let them know that life can be good away from the streets.

We work to correct poor behaviors, teach manners and observe each dogs particular quirks and personalities so we can give accurate observations of the dogs you are interested in.

We know that dogs will sometimes behave differently with different people but we can give you our impressions of our pups and situations they have been in.
