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 Snickerdoodle - 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 Snickerdoodle (hey, hey, that's me)! 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 cuz who doesn't love a snickerdoodle? You see, I is an extremely affectionate, playful, and adventurous pup that at around 7 months and weighs about 55 lbs should put me at a perfectly pawsome size for tagging along on ALL your adventures from the mundane daily to your weekend exciting!! I do well with people both the tall and small versions and other pups too! I even do really great with cats and chickens. I would do wonderful being a 'sibling' to either the 2 or 4 legged variety or hogging all the attention as your one and only!! I'm an active gal that would love to be included in ALL your adventures. We could go on neighborhood strolls, go on hikes, take camping trips...you think it and I'm right there to give it a try - so if you're an outdoorsy type, I could definitely be the pup for you! I walk really well on the leash and love playing with my toys and running around the yard. But when the day is done, I is a total cuddle bug and loves nothing more than curling up on the couch with my people. If you're ready to welcome this sweetheart (still me!) into your home and be a part of your family, I's sooooo ready to be that heartbeat at your feet!! All you need to do is stop scrolling and fill out my adoption application and I'll take it from there. You can find it at haydudeequine.org

Story
Diamond is an eight year old Shepherd mix who was adopted from Pet Friends in 2017, but returned to us recently when her family was no longer able to take care of her. While she may considered a "senior dog based on her age, she looks and acts much younger. She enjoys playing fetch and going for walks but those walks don't need to be for miles and miles and the fetch sessions don't need to be hours long. After some exercise, Diamond will be happy to sit with you and get a good scratching. When she was returned, we weren't told much about her other than she is dog reactive, so would need to be in a house with no other dogs. Now that our volunteers have spent some time with Diamond, we have learned that she knows some basic commands, walks ok on a leash but will pull hard, especially at the beginning of the walk, and really enjoys being with people. Diamond is a perfect name for her, because she is a gem and is going to make someone a wonderful companion, particularly if they want a dog that has grown out of its puppy stage, yet still is full of life.

Story
Meet Luffy, or affectionally known as Elliott. This guy was adopted when he was 10 weeks old and now he is a little over a year (14 months).  He is a very active and energetic pup still but what the family has come to realize is, he does not enjoy living in a home full of kids or one with kids actively coming and going out of the home. He prefers to be in an adult only home with limited or no exposure to children.  Their sudden and quick movements just don't seem to 'sit' well with Elliott. He does well with the resident dog of the home so one can assume he is dog friendly (a meet and greet would be required).  We would like to assure Elliott's success with an adult only home. If you are interested in this young man, please complete an application!  He is potty trained, crate trained and neutered!  ##1821462##

Story
Hello! I'm Dutton and yep, cute as a button! I don't know so much about my looks though because I was unfortunately blinded in both eyes in my early days. I am extremely smart though!  I listen to commands, follow smells and the paw taps of my foster siblings/friends, so I get around much better than you'd expect once I learn the environment!  I even make my way up/down steps when I become familiar with them!  I'm very good with other dogs but I prefer to eat alone as my desire for food can make me a little selfish!  I'm working on potty training still but making great progress!  I do love to run so a fence would be ideal for me to keep me safe yet allow me to explore. I love toys, snuggles, and belly rubs to round out my fun personality! I'd love someone with a special heart for my special needs to take me home and love me forever!   ##2231467##

Hi everyone! My name is Tucker! I am thought to be a german shepherd/heeler mix, about 8 months old, and looking for my fur-ever family!   I was given up due to my previous owner having severe medical needs.    I am: dog friendly crate trained potty trained kid friendly (no littles, please! I don't understand my size yet!)   I am working on: leash training (I do best with a harness) puppy manners learning how to play with kitties (I don't hurt them, but again, the puppy manners thing...!)   Due to my breeds, I think it's safe to say I'm high energy and will continue to need training and engagement well into my adult years!! Hiking? Running? Playing ball? Stuffed animals? Yes please to all!!!!   If you think I'd fit into your family, wow would that be the best present Santa could give me for the holidays!! If so, you can apply at: www.crossyourpaws.com   KLN 16814 501c3 nonprofit ##2237149##

Story
    adoption donation : $499 weight 70 lbs  Age: 5 years (DOB 12/9/2019)       Mellie is a purebred AKC registered Belgian Malinois and an awesome dog, she bonds  strongly to her people, is affectionate and loving, and as long as she gets the exercise she needs she is extremely chill in the house and just an easy dog who will make a great companion. Mellie does need a good amount of exercise, she walks well on a leash and will absolutely adore anyone who will throw a ball for her, she can play fetch for hours! Mellie  gets along with other dogs but can be dominant so she needs an owner who will respect her breed and understand that she needs a careful introduction to new dogs.  Mellie is currently in a foster home with a man who is actually a dog trainer and she is learning basic commands, she can sit and stay, lay down and heal. The family recently took in to German Shepherds, a male and a female and Mellie is doing fine with them. Mellie sleeps in a crate at night. Mellie was  originally bought from a breeder by a family who recently had young children and no longer had time for Mellie.  The dog trainer offered to take Mellie and help find her an home. Mellie has had her vaccinations but is not yet spayed. Wags will take care of her spay before an adoption or reimburse the cost at one of the clinics the rescue uses if she is adopted before her spay. Mellie is a great dog who ideally would be best in a home with someone who knows the breed and can give her the structure and exercise she needs.       Wags is a struggling 501(c) 3 where one woman in rural Mississippi takes care of about 150 homeless and stray dogs.  Adoption donations are the only source of funding for the rescue. Adoption fee includes the transport from Mississippi, vaccines, microchip and spay and neuter at one of the clinics we use. For more information on adopting Mellie please email mariaeftimiades@yahoo.com    December 29, 2024, 1:51 pm
