Story
Do you long to cuddle and kiss a blocky noggin all day long? I love cuddles and I'd let you kiss my head forever if you wanted! My name is Percy, I'm estimated to be a 4 year old bulldog mix, and I weigh in at about 50lbs. I get along with the other dogs in my foster home, and am happy to play or veg out on the couch. I haven't met a cat yet, but I have a minimal prey drive, so it's assumed I'll do just fine with a proper introduction. Because I like a calmer environment, kids 12+ for me, please! I'm a very happy guy. I love kisses on my big noggin and getting snuggles. Chewing on bones, tearing apart stuffies, and chasing my ball are a few of my favorite things. Bully breed experience is required for my adopter.

Story
🌟 Meet Earl 🌟 🌟 Name: Earl 🎂 Age: 6 months 🐶 Breed: German Shepherd Mix 💉 Vaccination Status: Earl is nearly up to date with his last vaccination scheduled in mid January along with his neuter surgery. 🏡 Ideal Home: Earl is seeking an experienced dog family. He would do best with a fenced in yard as he claims it’s his job to keep rabbits at bay 🐇 🐕 Compatibility: Earl gets along well with dogs, and children. Cats are unknown. ✨Special Needs: None! ✂️ Grooming: Brushing his shepherd coat often. 🐾 Training: Manners are coming along! He has mastered potty training. 👂🏽Hear what his foster has to say: “[Earl] is a cool customer, goes with the flow. Can’t have any padded stuff in the kennel otherwise it gets shredded. Blankets are good. Loves to play with and chase toys. Really good with [4 year old child]. I have been sick the last few days and [wife] says he gets really concerned and sits by the door when I take a nap, when she lets him in he very quietly gets on the bed checks if I’m breathing and snuggles in next to me. Loves to go pick [child] up from school and likes to sit in her car seat when she’s not along. His manners are coming along and potty training is pretty much mastered. He gives resident dogs a fair warning when they get close to his bowl and they leave him be, not food aggression just ‘hey, my bubble.’ We can take his bowl away anytime and he has no issue. Sleeps through the night until the resident shepherd stirs him up in the morning. He does have that shepherd stubbornness at times. I think he would be good with families that have a little experience with dogs and I don’t see him getting any bigger than he is. He would do best in a fenced in yard cuz he like to keep rabbits at bay. If he has the beagle I think he does, he would go on a “hound around” if unattended.” Apply here: https://linktr.ee/uudogrescue DS# 403072

Story
Are you looking for a big, handsome and sweet-as-can-be boy? Well then you found me. My name is Merlin. I am a 2 years old Shepherd mix, around 80 lbs. I am a big boy who is looking for that perfect home. I enjoy walks and playing, I get along great with other dogs and all the peoples - although I am quite big and heavy so perhaps a home with older children might be best cos I don't want to knock or squish a little one! I also am partial to a treat or two and I try to keep my slobber to a minimum! Find out about me asap, big boys like me don't last long! *All of The Right to Live dogs are fostered locally in San Antonio Texas and will be transported to other states to their new families upon adoption. We believe fostering dogs and not having them decompress in a kennelled environment is more beneficial for the dogs and builds their trust and companionship in a family situation. Adoption fee includes transportation costs, previous/current medical treatment (spay/neuter, etc.) and a health certificate for cross-state travel*
