Story
WE ARE A TX BASED RESCUE. THIS DOG IS CURRENTLY LOCATED IN TX AND WILL BE TRANSPORTED UPON ADOPTION. Please fill out an adoption application found at haydudeequine.org Dottie - You are the bridge between what was and what will be, my pathway to a new life! Looking for a new FBF (furry best friend)? Look no further than Dottie (hey, hey, that's me!) and I'm here looking to adopt me a family...one I can say will be all mine! And since you're reading this, I'm hoping that you'll consider making ME a part of your family!!!! I am now ready to start on this new chapter of my life with lots of hugs, puppy kisses and playtime!!! I came from a hoarding situation where I was housed with 96 (yes, 96!) other dogs. I have never known until now the kind words, gentle pets that other pups take for granted. I am finding that this is pretty darn nice!! I'm all for these snuggles and belly rubs!! As for my previous situation, I will need time to come to terms with my living situation. Once you have gained my trust with slow movements, gentle words and maybe a treat or two ;) I do become very loving sweet and cuddly. It just takes me a little more time then some to get there, but I do get there!! I'm probably around 3 years old and I come in at about 10lbs. I'm also already house trained so that lets us get right to the snuggles!!! I love playing and am energetic, ready to share in all your adventures from the mundane daily to your weekend exciting!! I do good in the crate but would much prefer being close to my person!! I would do best in a quiet home where my person(s) are either retired or work from home. I would also do best in a home with another 4 legged sibling to help me feel more comfortable. I've got a beautiful white and black coat that is super easy in the maintenance department, kind of a wash-n-go type of gal. You do know what that means, don't ya? Yep yep, more time for the spoil me rotten department!! I am sooooo ready to find me a family and be that lil heartbeat at your feet or preferably on your lap, so if you think I'd be a pawsome fit for your home and you have the time and patience to let me find my peace, please stop scrolling and fill out my adoption application!

Look no further than Merlin (hey, hey, that's me!) and I'm here looking to adopt me a family, a home...one I can say will be all mine! And since you're reading this, I'm hoping that you'll consider making ME a part of yours!!!! I got my name cuz I'm pretty good at magic. I magically appeared in my foster mom's fenced yard and they are still trying to figure that one out. I can also magically fit myself into my favoritest bed from when I was smaller. I'm now ready to start on this new chapter of my life with lots of hugs, puppy kisses and playtime with my new family!!! I'm around 9 months old and I come in at about 30lbs, which should put me at a fantastic size when I get myself all growed up, although I shouldn't get a whole lot bigger(35-40lbs). I love playing and am energetic, ready to share in all your adventures from the mundane daily to your weekend exciting!! I love people both tall and small, love playing with the other pups here at my foster home but I haven't had the pleasure of meeting any of those strange creatures y'all call a cat yet. I have that innocent spirit that loves living life to the fullest, that energy that loves exploring the world around me and that playful demeanor that finds joy in everything!! I am one smart cookie (yes, my foster momma tells me so!) as I'm already house and crate trained and I know how to use the doggie door. That lets us get right to all that fun stuff...right away. I've got a beautiful coat that is pretty easy in the maintenance department, kind of a wash-n-go type of fella. You do know what that means, don't ya? Yep yep, more time for the spoil me rotten department!! I am sooooo ready to unleash all this awesomeness on a family and be that lil heartbeat at your feet, so if you think I'd be a pawsome fit for your home, please stop scrolling and fill out my adoption application! It can be found at haydudeequine.org With lots of sincere tail wags and puppy kisses, Merlin💗💗

And since you're reading this, I'm hoping that you'll consider making ME a part of yours!!!! I is a sweet, adorable, and playful 3-month-old puppy that is super energetic and has that cuteness overload that will win over your heart with my charming personality. I is ready to start this next chapter in life with lots of puppy kisses, tail wags and playtime with my new family!! I loves to run around and play with toys and my brothers. I has a lot of energy and would be the perfect companion for an active family. I would also be a pawsomely perfect addition to your family as a 'sibling' or hogging all the attention as your one and only. I do great with people both tall and small but I do have those sharp lil teeth and nails. I get on great love playing with my siblings and although I haven't had the pleasure of meeting any of those creatures y'all call a cat yet, at my tender age if introduced properly I should do fine with them too! I has the most beautiful dark dark coat that looks almost black until the sun shines on it showing the dark chocolate underneath. Mom is a chocolatey Labrador mix (about 45lbs) and dad was a traveling salespup sweet talking his way through town! I will probably be around 40-50lbs when I get myself fully growed up. I am sooooo ready to unleash all this awesomeness on a family and be that lil heartbeat at your feet, so if you think I'd be a pawsome fit for your home, please stop scrolling and fill out my adoption application!
