Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Mars- fourth planet? Candy bar? Even better… a certified good boy who is reddish like the planet and sweet like the candy bar. This boy is so sweet with a playful side and a loving heart. He is so fortunate to be fostered in a loving home which is not only wonderful for him but gives us a front-row seat to his personality. Being in a home has allowed us to know he is house trained, is great at apartment life (but would love a yard if were talking forever) is smart and treat motivated.

Estimated to be just over a year old, Mars is prime age for building all of his best boy skills and he is off to a great start. He has great basic leash skills and enjoys walks with his foster mom and foster doggie sibling, a large German shepherd. Mars spends time in-between naps and walks playing with his doggie sibling. He is a great playmate and we saw that when we introduced him to a handful of new dogs. With each dog he was polite and playful without being pushy. He truly lights up when he is meeting a new dog and is a great playmate. He would love a home with a playful, going dog to play chase and bounce around with.
With people Mars takes it slow, he is friendly and warm but isn’t the dog that is going go 90% to meet you and next thing you know be kissing you. He is more than happy to get to know you before making the first move and going in for the kiss. This may translate into him needing a little time to settle in once he arrives home. Overall a calm home would suit him best. No party boy here despite his love of a good time.
Mars is what we would call- cat curious. When he met our house cat he was polite but curious and his interest was definitely peaked. He may be the type to start a game of chase in order to meet the cat but with boundaries and slow-introductions we believe he would learn that they do not enjoy playing chase. A dog-savvy cat that will give him a swat if necessary would be clearly received by him. If you have a feline friend and are interested in Mars we are more than happy to reintroduce him to a cat(s) to get a better idea.
Mars could easily be a family man, he has been introduced to kids and the natural fit has been with the older ones who enjoy his company without expectation. He is patient but enjoys his space and we all know the little are still learning about space.
This boy strikes a great balance between playtime and relaxation. He enjoys running around having fun but knows how to take it easy too, the best type.
Mars is full of potential and ready to become the loyal, loving companion you’ve been searching for. With time, care, and the right environment, he’ll blossom into a confident and affectionate member of your family.
We facilitate adoptions across the US through our own internal transport to ensure the quality of care. We travel to WA, UT, OR, ID, VA, PA, OH, NY, CT, VT and Canada (Canadian adopters will need to pick up in Bellingham, WA or Brattleboro, VT for the eastern Canadian border)! Our pups travel in comfort with 24/7 care on our USDA licensed vehicles, including buses and cargo vans. You can join along on our private Facebook event page to follow their adventure, connecting you with other adopters and providing updates throughout their transport journey!
You will get to meet your new pup over a video call before signing paperwork, creating a fun and personalized adoption experience!
The adoption fee is $825 and includes all vetting (DAPP with booster, Bordetella, Rabies vaccine, multiple broad spectrum deworming treatments, spay/neuter, flea prevention, a 12 month heartworm preventative injectible, heartworm test and treatment if needed, a microchip with free lifetime registration, a high quality nylon Martingale collar, a health certificate deeming the pup healthy for travel, cost of transport*, and priceless years of love and loyal companionship!
We have over 15,000 successful adoptions so far and have excellent Google Reviews:
https://g.co/kgs/UQ5Pyai We care deeply about making the perfect match between dog and family for long term success.
Our rescue has a 2 acre property in Texas where 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 trainings and socialization play groups to keep dogs adoption-ready. Our on-site trainers support the positive growth of our dogs and we enjoy seeing their progress!
Our commitment to comprehensive medical care sets us apart. We've received glowing feedback from veterinarians who commend our dedication to ensuring the health and well-being of every animal in our care with treatments that often go above and beyond.
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.
The rescue’s hard costs alone (excluding transport) for a healthy dog to go through our program typically range between $412 to $859, which includes boarding, food, medications, vaccines, and spay/neuter. For heartworm-positive dogs, hard costs are upwards of $1,368. Additionally, dogs requiring extended boarding, extra training, or extra medical care—such as dental work, vision care, or orthopedic care—can lead to expenses running into the thousands. Also, included in the adoption fee are costs to cover transport up to the Pacific Northwest or East Coast. Transport is a significant additional expense to the rescue.
While adoption fees help cover part of these expenses, we want to emphasize that the rescue does not receive government funding and must fundraise to offset the remaining expense balance which ranges $100-1,000++ per animal on these direct costs.
It doesn’t stop there! Our adopters also receive these SPECIAL PERKS:

Did you know that the Greater Houston area faces some of the highest stray and overpopulation rates in the nation? We are a non profit charity. Our goal is simple— to reduce the homeless pet population through community outreach, free spay and neuter services, and by rescuing animals from the streets or overcrowded shelters where euthanasia due to lack of space is often the only option. The dog you've found online is not only lucky to be in our program, but also incredibly fortunate to have caught your eye. Thank you for considering adoption and for joining us in our mission!
