Story
Goldie would love to be your girl! This loyal lovebug was heartbroken when her one and only owner had to hand her over to the shelter. Unfortunately her human fell on hard times and it was no longer feasible to live out of a car with Goldie and her siblings. Upon entering her foster home Goldie bonded with her caretaker immediately. She is definitely a people pup and wonderful companion. Goldie loves going for walks. , but she is also fine to stay in and sit on your lap. House and crate training are still a work in progress, but her leash skills are quite good. Goldie is 2 years and 15lbs, but she could probably stand to gain a few. This girl isn’t a huge fan of treats or really any kind of eats. She definitely needs some enticing when it comes to meal time. Goldie has lived with other small dogs without an issue, and we do not know if she ever lived with cats. If you think you could be this girl’s forever family email jones4318@gmail.com today!

Story
Meet Mary Ann and Ginger, an adorable bonded pair of medium-sized rescue dogs who are searching for their forever home. These super cute girls have spent their entire lives on their own until they were recently rescued. Despite their rough beginnings, Mary Ann and Ginger are incredibly sweet and are now learning to enjoy the comforts of a loving home. Both Mary Ann and Ginger get along wonderfully with other dogs, though they haven't had the chance to meet any cats yet. They need a patient adopter who will give them the time and space they need to adjust to their new surroundings and discover the joys of being cherished pets. Ginger, who bravely underwent heartworm treatment, is now healthy and heartworm negative. Both dogs are fully vetted, spayed, microchipped, and on preventatives. They even tolerate baths and absolutely love being petted. Currently, Mary Ann and Ginger are being fostered in Seguin, TX, where they are receiving the care and love they deserve. If you have a kind heart and a gentle hand, these two sweethearts will surely reward you with endless affection and loyalty. Adopt Mary Ann and Ginger and give them the loving home they've always dreamed of.

Story
Meet Mallomar  Mallomar is a handsome 3-year-old, 60-lb athletic Basenji/Lab mix pup with a sleek black coat, a bright white chest, and the cutest biggest ears. He’s playful, smart, house trained and wonderfully goofy in his own ways — he loves chasing anything you throw, proudly removing squeakers from soft toys, running around outside, and working on a really good bone. Mallomar loves to be outdoors and would thrive in an active home with experienced dog owners who are home and have time to take him on walks, hikes and have  a fully fenced yard where he can run and play. He greets you warmly when you come home and makes a loving, loyal, and protective companion. He does have some handling sensitivities — he prefers not to be touched while lying down or around his mouth, ears, and paws. Because of this, he needs a home with an experienced patient dog owner and no kids or small dogs. He would also do well in a home as your only dog or with a larger female dog. The home should be an adult only house.  Mallomar really shines. He’s a loyal, athletic, outdoorsy buddy who has so much love to give when his boundaries are respected. If you’re looking for a smart, active companion who will be genuinely excited every time you walk through the door, Mallomar could be your perfect match. We require adopters to have a safe and secure backyard - not electric or Fido fences as they are not as safe at containing dogs or keeping other animals or people out. For these reasons we do not adopt to homes with electric or Fido fencing.            The adoption fee is $375, which includes age appropriate vaccines, microchip, monthly flea, tick and heart worm preventatives at time of adoption. Mallomar is neutered, up to date on vaccines and microchipped.
