Story
Meet Max 7 Years Old Lab Mixed with Large Breed 90 lbs Fostered in Boise Max is a 7-year-old Lab mix with the soul of a couch potato and the heart of a gentle giant. At around 90 pounds, Max is a big boy, not overweight just built large, possibly with a larger breed like a Great Dane in his family tree. Originally from a shelter in Fort Worth, Texas, Max made the journey to Idaho for a second chance at finding his forever home. He’s already overcome a lot, including successful treatment for heartworm, and is now fully cleared, healthy, and ready for adoption. Max is incredibly sweet and deeply people-oriented. He lights up when his humans come home, leaning in for snuggles and occasionally attempting a very sneaky (and slightly rude) ear lick when he gets the chance. His favorite place in the world is the couch, where he spends most of his day relaxing and soaking up companionship. While Max does have an old knee injury, he remains active and enjoys daily walks. He would benefit from continuing pain management, such as carprofen, to keep him comfortable and moving well, something he’s done great with. Max is dog-friendly in the sense that he coexists beautifully with other dogs, but he’s not looking for a canine best friend. He prefers to mind his own business and do his own thing. If you’re hoping for a dog who will play nonstop with your current pup, Max may not be the right match, but if your dog would enjoy a calm, respectful companion, Max fits that role perfectly. He is currently fostered with cats and is indifferent to them. He does show some extra interest in chickens, but redirects well with verbal guidance. Max would thrive in a home that appreciates a mellow, loving presence, a dog who doesn’t ask for much beyond a comfy couch, daily strolls, and people to love. If you’re looking for a loyal, low-drama companion with excellent couch manners and a soft heart, Max might just be your perfect match Max is being cross posted with Fuzzy Pawz Rescue and Pug Pals Rescue for additional exposure to help with his adoption.

Story
Meet Clover – A Gentle Soul with a Forever-Wagging Tail Clover is one of those dogs who quietly steals your heart. With her soft ears, soulful eyes, and tail that never seems to stop wagging, she radiates sweetness and gratitude. Clover doesn’t ask for much—just to be close to her person, feel safe, and be loved. Clover is currently being fostered in a loving home in Seguin, Texas, where she is thriving in her own gentle way. She shares her days with her best friend, a 25 lb Corgi, and the two enjoy calm play, companionship, and cozy moments together. Clover has a naturally submissive, easygoing personality and showed no concern around larger dogs at the shelter. While she hasn’t yet been introduced to kids or cats, her tender spirit suggests she would do best in a calm, loving environment. She is crate-trained and house-trained, rides beautifully in the car, and walks nicely on a leash. Clover isn’t a dog who needs constant activity—she simply wants to be near you. Whether she’s curled up on her dog bed, resting on the couch beside her foster mom, or quietly following you from room to room, Clover’s happiest place is wherever her person is. Clover does have special medical needs that make her story even more meaningful. She has Megaesophagus, which is well managed with a simple feeding routine using frozen, meatball-shaped meals. She also has torn ACLs in both back legs, which are inoperable due to her other medical condition. Because of this, Clover needs a home that can offer a calm, low-impact lifestyle and understand her mobility limitations. Despite everything, Clover remains gentle, loving, and content—asking only for soft beds, routine, and affection. Clover can be a little shy around men at first, but with patience and kind words, she blossoms into a devoted companion. Due to her medical needs, transport would be too difficult for her, so Clover is available for adoption in Texas only. Clover is searching for a special forever home—one that sees past her challenges and straight into her heart. In return, she will offer quiet loyalty, endless love, and a tail that never stops wagging for the family who chooses her. To see more pictures and videos, copy and paste this link.

Story
Koda – 2.5-Year-Old Anatolian Mix | Calm, Gentle Soul Looking for a Quiet Home Koda is a 2½-year-old Anatolian mix weighing in at a perfect 50 pounds, and he is the definition of calm and steady. Whether indoors or outside, Koda carries himself with a peaceful, easygoing demeanor that makes him a wonderful companion for someone looking for a relaxed, low-key dog. On leash, Koda truly shines. He walks beautifully and naturally matches your pace, making daily strolls a pleasure rather than a chore. He is fully potty trained and understands the rhythm of home life, settling in comfortably and contentedly once he knows he’s safe. Koda is a true snuggler at heart. He loves being close to his people and enjoys quiet moments spent cuddling or resting nearby. Because of his gentle nature, Koda would do best in a calm household with no small children, where he can enjoy a predictable, peaceful environment and plenty of one-on-one companionship. Cats? No worries! Koda has lived in a home with cats and gets caught on video playing with their toys! When it comes to travel, Koda does get carsick on longer trips, but this is easily managed with Dramamine when needed. For everyday life and local outings, he does just fine and is happy simply being with his person. Koda is currently being fostered in a home in Seguin, Texas, where his calm personality and loving nature continue to shine. If you’re looking for a loyal, gentle companion who enjoys quiet walks, cozy snuggles, and a serene home, Koda may be the perfect match for you.

Story
Meet Cali, the bold and curious spirit of her litter. Cali is about 4.5 months old and 18 pounds. Cali is an explorer at heart.

Her playful energy is contagious, and she brings a lot of fun and confidence to the group. Cali would thrive in an active home that embraces her adventurous nature and gives her plenty of opportunities to explore, play, and learn.

Story
Available in TX, NE and the PNW! Meet Rover – Your Next Adventure Buddy! Rover is a handsome 2-year-old Black Mouth Cur with a heart as big as his love for adventure. Picked up as a stray at just 6 months old, Rover has come a long way and is ready for a forever home that understands him and lets him shine. He has a natural affinity toward women and can be cautious with men at first; it took his foster dad a couple of weeks to earn his trust. Because of this, Rover needs a patient, understanding adopter who will allow him the time and space to feel secure and build confidence. He truly thrives in a calm, steady environment where he knows what to expect and can relax. Once comfortable, Rover’s personality blossoms. He loves belly rubs, happily rolls over for attention, and is generous with sweet kisses. He absolutely loves other dogs and would do wonderfully as an only dog soaking up all the attention or with a playful buddy who enjoys romping and wrestling. Fetch is one of his favorite games, and he’s even used to running alongside someone riding a bike. Rover loves water—lakes, pools, or splash time on a hot day—and would make an excellent hiking or outdoor companion. He has lived peacefully with cats and chickens, rides beautifully in the car, is leash trained, and fully potty trained. Because he can scale a 6-foot fence, supervised outdoor time or a secure yard is required. If you’re looking for a loyal, athletic, affectionate companion, Rover may be your perfect match. He is being fostered in a home in Seguin, Texas. In state adoptions are $250. He can be transported out of state for an additional $300. To see more pictures and videos, copy and paste this link.
