Raine is a cute little puppy that was saved from Houston kill shelter at the last minute. Now it is time to find her forever home. Raine is intelligent and easily directed. She walks well on a leash and loves to follow her person everywhere. She gets along well with other dogs though she is tiny and big dogs make her nervous. She loves children and doesn’t care about the cat. She likes to play with toys and would like a family with dogs and kids. However she would also do well with a couple. She just wants love. Raine is treat motivated and learns quickly. Is this your pup.

Story
Good morning friends! It’s me, Miss Rosie 🌹 checking in to say hello and let you know I’m dreaming of my forever family! I’m about a year old, they say I’m fully vetted (whatever that means), and I love to hang out with other dogs! I live with cats too, and they’re alright, but the dogs are more my type, if you know what I mean. There’s big humans and small humans in my foster home, and I love them all! I like to play, but not a whole lot. A good nap is part of my daily routine. I love a comfy bed in my crate and I go in there to relax sometimes because it’s like my own personal fort. It’s pretty cool! My foster mama tells me I’m a good girl and that I’m so pretty! Maybe you’ll think so, too! I’m catching a ride to New York (wherever that is) in a little less than 2 weeks, and I’m hoping maybe you’ll welcome me into your home! I’m fun loving and easy going!

Story
We pulled this pretty girl off the euthanasia list earlier this week! She is settling into her foster home and decompressing as she is working through an upper respiratory infection. We actually saved two dogs this week who have URI’s. Rest and some meds and they will be feeling good soon! ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ This is Samosa. She is approximately 1 year old. She is very sweet, good with other dogs and kids. She knows how to sit, shake, and she walks nicely on a leash! She has to get better from her respiratory infection, get spayed, another round of vaccines and she will soon be available for adoption! More pics coming soon! 🐾
