Story
Hank came to me about 1 year or so ago. He has been an excellent dog. Hank seems to be a bit older. We are guessing he is about 7 or 8. He is great with kids and kids with special needs who may be a little rough. Hank is very patient. He Has never growled or nipped when my son has pulled his tail and ears. He is wonderful around grumpy old cats. He loves going to doggie daycare and does great at the groomer or at home in the bath tub. Hank loves keeping you company on car rides. He loves to snuggle. He is 24.5 lbs . He is not much of a barker but he will alert you when someone is at your door. He loves walks but, not to long. He is kennel trained and house trained however we give him free rein in the house.

Story
Reba was rescued at the age of 1 from a puppy mill. She loves to curl up next to you on a chair or couch. She is now 6 years old. She is great with kids and other dogs, however she has not been around cats. She is fixed and potty trained to use a dog door. She is leash trained. She is groomed regularly and up-to-date on her shots. Shot records, vet info and grooming will be provided at the time of rehoming. She is healthy and I want her in a home where she will get more human connection. I simply work long hours since graduating from school and no longer have the time to commit to what I feel would be a good home for her. Of note, her brother is Toby and also listed. I would like them to stay together, but I realize this might not be possible. Ultimately I am hopeful for a loving home as they are both good dogs.

Story
Toby was rehomed to us approximately 5 years ago. He is a little cuddle bug and we call him nugget for short. He is great with kids and other dogs, however he has not been around cats. He is fixed and potty trained to use a dog door. He is groomed regularly and up-to-date on his shots. He is leash trained. Shot records, vet info and grooming will be provided at the time of rehoming. He is healthy and I want him in a home where he will get more human connection. I simply work long hours since graduating from school and no longer have the time to commit to what I feel would be a good home for him. Of note, his sister is Reba and also listed. I would like them to stay together, but I realize this might not be possible. Ultimately I am hopeful for a loving home as they are both good dogs.

Demi - apx 3-4 years apx 7.5 pounds, as you can see her from her older pics, she has gained weight and is looking very healthy. Demi the cat dog. Demi was rescued from very very bad hoarding situation where she was confiscated for cruelty , with her babies, in a cement outdoor shelter , all her babies died within the first 24 hours. Demi is a sad case but her fosters have never given up on her. We have had Demi since February. She still does not “need “ or ask for human attention but likes to follow you around, be a part of the family, she will sit next to you and she LoVeS her foster fursiblings. She will not walk on leash and harness still and needs a fenced yard but does have good potty manners, taking in mind her Foster is retired and home all day so she gets to go in and out several times a day. She is very quiet and demure but has a silly side. She still will not let her fosters pick her up and will run from them, you have to kind of corner her to pick her up and she freezes. but she never ever bites and is never aggressive. Demi was basically feral when we got her in and her strides are slow going but non the less, she is indeed making them. We are hoping to find her the perfect home that will just let Demi be Demi and come around in her own time.

Additional photos and videos will be made available to approved adopters Texas adopters will be required to pick up their adopted dogs in Pleasanton. Transport available to Buffalo NY and Ontario Canada for an additional fee. Tic Tac is a gorgeous boy. Apx 1.5 - 2 years young and 10 pounds. He is a beautiful color. TicTac came from a terrible hoarding case in Caldwell county with over 100 dogs. Rescues all over the state chipped in to assist placing these dogs. We took in four dogs from this tragic situation. Ticky is an odd duck, but really who can blame him, his life before coming to us had to be horrible, he was neglected, starving, probably always having to be fighting for his life, never a safe place to sleep or eat, never a real home , not ever learning to trust humans, not ever getting the love he so deserves. Ticky has a way to go , but we are confident he will be a shining star and given some love, time and patience, he will certainly be your baby boy, stealing your heart and your covers. Ticky is not aggressive, he is just very shy. He will growl a bit when he is scared but never acts on it, he will not bite. We dis his bath and nails and vaccines no issue. We got him into the vets and he was such a good boy. He is just weary of people and a bit standoffish. We do have to corner him to pick him up he does not just willingly come running over to you for attention, but we are working with him every single day. He does actually like little pets on the head once he is comfortable with you and knows you and once you actually pick him up, you can tell he, he greatly enjoys the attention and even gives little kisses, He is not good at walking on leash and harness so he will need a fenced in yard or penned area to go potty in. Ticky is young and loving and has a big heart. He really wants love and attention, he is just terrified of his own shadow. Ticky is quiet, soulful and has a gentle demeanor about him. He is great with dogs and cats , we ask no small hyper children. He needs a home with an open mind and open heart so he can start to heal.

Transport available to Buffalo NY and Ontario Canada for an additional fee. Fergus is apx 12 years young and 5.5 pounds. He is a loving and quirky little man. He has good potty manners, he loves sweaters, he walks on leash, and gives good cuddles. Fergus had a dental and had all but four teeth taken out. He does have mild grade 1 MPLS ( luxating patella ) in his rear limbs so sometimes he has a little limp or favors his rear right leg a little but it is very mild. Fergus is okay with other dogs but is not a fan of puppies or rambunctious dogs or young kids. Fergus was rescued from a local shelter. He was neutered young so he had to have had a family once upon a time. No chip or tags and no one came for him. Fergus is wanting his forever family, he is a perfect lap baby and just wants to be doted upon and loved like a little prince. He really likes naps, and lots of blankets :) (The pics were taken before the dental, so there is no more cute snaggle tooth)
