Transport will be arranged once the adoption is finalized.

Prancer is a sweet and spirited 10-week-old male Husky mix who was found alongside his mother and siblings in a dumpster near the Texas border. Despite the tough beginning, Prancer has emerged as a joyful and playful pup, full of love and curiosity.

Known for his affectionate nature, Prancer loves to be around people and is always eager to give a wagging tail or a gentle nudge for attention. He's a quick learner with an adventurous spirit, enjoying every new experience that comes his way. Whether it's running around, playing with his siblings, or cuddling up for a nap, Prancer fills every moment with happiness.

Now in the safety of a loving home, Prancer is blossoming into a confident and charming pup. His story is one of hope and resilience, and he is excited for the bright future that awaits him, full of love, play, and the security of a forever family.

As an adoption fee-based rescue, we do not operate on monthly support or fundraisers. Our adoption fee of $650 (Non-Refundable) covers transport, which is arranged post-adoption, and is tax-deductible as we are a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. Should you wish to arrange your own transport, the adoption fee remains the same. Thank you for your valuable support.

More about this rescue

We are friends that worked together at the Texas Department of Public Safety for many years.
We both have worked with rescue and fostered many dogs and cats. We started this nonprofit with a few more friends to assist and are very appreciative of all the support and help for the animals we all love. OPERATION BARKING SQUIRREL is a Texas registered nonprofit and 501.3 (c) that is seeking to fill the gaps in dog and cat rescue. We believe that all pets in rescue deserve a home of their own and we want to make that happen. We all see the pets that have been surrendered or dumped in Texas due to age, breed and no microchip to get them back to their parent, and, sometimes, no transportation to get them home.
Starting with senior and long term fosters dogs and cats,
we are promoting available dogs and cats that might be over looked because of their age or foster status.
The second gap is lack of microchips and microchip registration.
It is our goal to microchip and register at least 50 dogs or cats a month. Microchips can be expensive and we would prefer to offer free chips for all. For that to happen we need more funding. All pets should be chipped so they can make it back home, but unfortunately that isn't reality. We want to make that happen.Third gap is transportation.
You fall in love with a dog or cat to realize they are a state away or more. That's when you check the costs and realize how expensive transport is. We are USDA Certified Transporters and will offer low cost transportation or help fundraise for an individual trip.
