Story
Meet Ricky, an adorable 6-month-old Australian Cattle Dog mixed breed puppy who is ready to find his forever home! Ricky was found abandoned in a box with his brother and sister at Walgreens in Amarillo, TX on a day when it was 102 degrees outside. His brother and sister have been adopted, but this deserving little guy is still waiting on his forever family to find him and love him. Is it you? Ricky is very social, loves people of all ages, and gets along great with other dogs, cats, and kids. He is doing very well with house, crate, and leash training, making him a wonderful addition to a variety of homes. Ricky currently weighs between 22-28 lbs and is expected to grow into a medium-sized dog, around 40-55 lbs when fully grown. This young man is VERY sweet/social and loves every person he meets. Such a happy boy! He loves other dogs and would do wonderful in a home with another playful dog or as a single dog. Ricky loves to wrestle and play other dogs and chase & tug his favorite toys. He is not suited for apartment living. Overall, he has a moderate energy level and would thrive in homes with a yard where he can run and play to his hearts’ content. Ricky is fully vaccinated, neutered, microchipped, dewormed, and on monthly flea and heartworm prevention. If you’re looking for a loving, fun pup to join your family, Ricky could be the perfect match!

Story
Opal is a 1.5-2-year-old female who’s guessed to be a Chihuahua/Dachshund (aka “chiweenie”) mix. She’s 11-12 pounds of pure love with her sleek black and white coat. Opal was rescued from a park known for dumping dogs in Amarillo, TX along with 3 other dogs. They had been there for over a month before we heard about them being there. As soon as we heard they needed help, we sprang into action and rescued all 4 of them. Opal was the ringleader and as soon as she walked into the trap to get the food, the other 3 followed her. All of her other friends have been adopted and now it's time for Opal to find her amazing family that will continue to love her the way she deserves. Opal can be a little nervous and sometimes hand shy at first, but once she is settled she is just the bounciest, happiest little girl who loves to sit in your lap and snuggle. In the yard she will happily frolic and play with other small or extra small dogs. She gets the zoomies a few times a day and will fly around the yard or inside for a minute or two. Her ideal forever home would spoil her rotten with treats/toys, give her lots of attention (she loves pets and belly rubs!), and have at least a small fenced yard for her to run, play, and zoomie in. She is fully grown and won’t get any bigger (unless they are fed a few too many treats in the years to come). Opal is potty and leash trained. She does well with other dogs and even cats (she may bark at them at first, but settles). With a moderate energy level, she enjoys both playtime and snuggles/naps. Because of her small size and touch of nervousness, she would do best in homes with children aged 14 years and up. APPLY TODAY!

Story
In search of a home for this sweet girl. She was born in September, 2024 and is potty and crate trained. We saved her from a bad situation, but unfortunately cannot keep her due to renting. She is not yet fixed, but I will help with some of the cost to get her spayed. I’m unsure on her breed. She gets along with other animals and kids. She will come with a large crate, a dog bed, water/food bowl, and some toys.

Story
Heidi is a full blooded Pitbull female (red-nose). She is fixed and she has been with our family since she was a puppy, she is now 6 years old. She is fully housetrained, and also crate trained, but also likes to be outside. She usually sleeps indoors at night. She also likes the snow and walks good on a leash. Unfortunately all of our children have grown up now and she is not happy when they bring new pets with them to visit. I need to find her a loving family. She is very well trained and listens well. She would be great for an older person and is good with grandmas. I can also provide her dog bed and food and transport to adopters. She has had all of her shots in the past but she is due to update her rabies soon. Heidi eats once a day and she loves to be loved on and sleeps most of the time.
