Foster location: Bear Creek  Application & Website: &#226&#129&#166https://www.ourpackanimalrescue.com/adoption.html&#226&#129&#169 Meet Dasher — the spirited little reindeer pup who lives up to her name! Dasher is part of the adorable Reindeer litter. True to her name, this girl  has lots of energy and dashes everywhere she goes. But once she’s had her fun, Dasher loves to settle in with a good chew toy or bone and enjoy some cozy time. Even though she has a festive reindeer name, Dasher is a Texas girl at heart and is still deciding how she feels about cold weather. A warm sweater definitely helps her brave the chill, and she looks adorable doing it.  As a young pup, Dasher will need continued training, structure, and consistency — but she’s full of enthusiasm, eager to learn, and ready to brighten someone’s world. This quick, playful, sweet little “reindeer” is searching for a family who can keep up with her zoomies and appreciate her snuggly side too.December 5, 2025, 9:36 am
