Story
Meet Beth Linus, a 3-year-old dachshund mix with soulful eyes and a gentle spirit. Beth was surrendered when her family no longer wanted her, and it’s left her feeling a bit bewildered and unsure of herself. Despite everything, Beth remains a sweet and innocent girl who simply wants to feel loved and secure again. She’s good with other small dogs, making her a wonderful companion for a multi-dog home, but she’ll need someone who can show her patience, kindness, and understanding to help her build up her confidence. We know that with the right family, Beth Linus will flourish and show her true, loving nature – one that will fill your home with joy every single day.

Story
We are Flynn and Rider! Like thieves in the night we'll steal your heart. Flynn and Rider are absolutely gorgeous and active puppies looking for forever homes to call their own. Flynn is a bit more reserved than Rider but he still loves to go play. He'll come sit by your feet and take in the world around him or he'll try to scamper up on your lap to show you rocks he's found. He loves being up high to get scratchies and watch his brother. Rider is the adventurer, he enjoys sniffing through the grass and pouncing grasshoppers. He likes to get the big dog toys to drag around the yard and have his brother chase him. Rider sits patiently waiting for his turn to get scratchies on your lap. He's so adorable! He's fearless until big trucks rumble by then you'll find him behind your chair! Don't get Tangled in our cute-pie puppy eyes! Flynn's blazing a new trail in life, had Parvo and they were unsure if he was gonna make it. Now he's recovered and making the most of life! Rider was a good support pup, always peeking in on Flynn while he was sick wondering when he could wrestle again. Otherwise he was bolting around causing a ruckus as puppies do checking out everything and ducking under anything. Gotta put a bell on this boy! These pups have healthy appetites but will stop when full, graze later after activities. Their mom has short legs, longer body, pointy ears, narrow face, and a beautiful redish brindle coat. Might be corgi/dachshund mixes or be energetic little terrier dogs. They have cute little legs and look like they waddle from behind! Both like to play, run, and carry things around. They are really good at hustling from their room to door to go outside with "lets go, let's go, hurry, hurry, all the way to the door." Then once out the door "all the way to the gate... no pee pee in the walk way." Then "hurry hurry all the way back to go potty." They bound around in a scurry watching me for praise at their good efforts! Eager to learn, observant, smart. Will walk on leashes together but criss cross a bit so will need individual leash training. They are a little timid with new things in general so slow introductions would be helpful as they learn. They are young and going through a chewing stage so age appropriate chew toys a plus. Have experience with dogs their size. Very timid with big dogs. No experience with cats or children so please introduce them slowly. Local adoption fee is $250 (in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $500 (includes transport to your area - $50 Temporary Fuel Charge will be added)

Story
Glory, such a wonderful word. Giving honor, love and praise. My name is NOW Glory, and let me tell you... i had no name before I got to the rescue.... But NOW, I am GLORY and I am loved in the foster mom's home and pack. I have a really great friend too, his name is Leggo and he was from a rough family too. So we have kind of a kinship of despair, which has turned into LOVE and FOOD and WARMTH and HOPE! We didn't come into the rescue together but we are attached at the hip :) Please adopt us together!! We won't take up much space! I am 9# and my buddy is only 10#!! Local adoption together is $400 (in TX) Out of state adoption fee together is $800 (includes transport to your area)

Story
Myrtle is living in a foster home. Fill out our quick adoption survey, and then we can set up a phone call or meet and greet with the foster! Myrtle is: Spayed: Not yet. She will be spayed at a later date, and a $50 refundable spay deposit will be required. Up to date on vaccines: Yes! Microchipped: Yes! Our microchips will automatically register when an adoption is finalized - Currently taking medication for anxiety support, heart disease, and allergies - Having her mammary masses and dental disease regularly monitored, as she is not a candidate for surgery/anesthesia at this time - Heartworm positive and on activity restriction. Myrtle has been undergoing treatment at Ellis Clinic at no charge to the adopter. Heartworm is a treatable disease that most dogs make a full recovery from. You can learn more about heartworm treatment on our resource page -https://www.onetail.org/heartworm/ More about Myrtle: Housebroken: Yes! Crate trained: She has only free roamed when home alone, and can take some time to settle due to stress. She has been doing better with the help of medication, but can still howl for a bit before settling. Leash walking: Doing well overall, but can sometimes bark at other dogs she sees on walks Dog social: She has been selective with her dog pals and has seemed more comfortable with smaller dogs. She would do best with slow introductions to well-matched dogs. Cat social: Unknown, but she has been fine regularly passing a feral cat on walks Kid friendly: Likely not a match, as she can be nervous around new people Myrtle likes: - Rolling around in the grass - Giving you kisses in the morning - Sitting in your lap while you work Myrtle is a hilariously sassy senior gal who loves to be with her trusted people. Once she bonds with you, she wants to be by your side (or in your lap), giving you kisses and cuddling with you. She has shown some nervousness around strangers, especially when visiting her home space, and will need an adopter who can give her plenty of time, space, and treats when meeting new people. Given that she does not love being home alone, she would appreciate a calmer and quieter home where her person is home more often than not. She has some medical needs that require medication and vet support, so her adopter should also be comfortable with handling her ongoing care. Myrtle's adoption fee is $150, and she is eager to spend her golden years in her forever home! Next steps: Email adopt@onetail.org with questions, or submit an application online and we'll be in touch to schedule a meeting: https://www.onetail.org/apply-to-adopt/ *** Our adoption application stays on file for one year and can apply to any dog in our program. Once the app is submitted you will receive an email within 48-72 hours. For additional questions, email adopt@onetail.org ***

Hitch was adopted two years ago. He started out shy and quiet and has come out of shell. He’s the sweetest, charming, but sassy old boy. He loves to lick face and just be around you. He can be a Velcro dog and doesn’t do well alone but can be trained. He’s so smart and very obiedient to his owner. He had pancreatitis a year ago and now is on a prescription diet and minimal treats.
