Story
Tennessee is the embodiment of your ideal furry companion. A striking blend of Belgian Malinois and German Shepherd, he's just 2 years old and bursting with energy. Tennessee thrives in a dynamic environment, making him the perfect fit for an active household. Despite his boundless energy, he possesses a gentle nature and remarkable intelligence. If you're seeking a trainable partner, Tennessee is your perfect match. Beyond his exuberance, he knows how to appreciate moments of stillness and enjoys cuddling up with his favorite humans. His luscious black sable fur requires regular brushing to maintain its health and stunning appearance. Tennessee is well-versed in basic commands, walks gracefully on a leash, and has excellent recall and boundaries. While he's tolerant of other dogs, his lack of exposure during his formative years means he's still learning proper pack manners. He's not one to bark unnecessarily, reserving his vocalizations for when something seems amiss. Tennessee is kennel trained, although he's not shy about expressing his dissatisfaction with confinement. Nevertheless, he can be trusted to behave responsibly when left alone at home. Plus, he's up-to-date on vaccinations, microchipped, neutered, and fully housebroken, making him the paw-fect addition to your family.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.November 5, 2024, 12:11 am

Story
Ghost is a strikingly handsome young boy with a strong personality and a heart full of love to share! This confident pup knows what he wants, and he’ll fit perfectly into a home that appreciates his independence and zest for life. Ghost loves being around people and kids, and his playful spirit shines when he’s out and about with his human friends. Ghost does best with female dog companions and would thrive in a home without cats. His ideal family is one that loves to stay active and can match his adventurous energy. If you’re the kind of family that enjoys hiking, jogging, or exploring the outdoors, Ghost will be your loyal sidekick every step of the way. He’s a smart boy who enjoys learning, and he’d love a family dedicated to continuing his training and mental enrichment. If you're ready to welcome a bold, spirited pup into your life, Ghost is ready to be your loyal, lifelong friend! To add Ghost to your family, simply send us an email at springbranchrescue@gmail.com for adoption and fee information. He is wagging his tail and wiggling his butt at just the thought of finding his forever home and his story is just beginning! His next chapter could be with you! Our adoption fee includes transport, all age required shots, microchip, & a health certificate from a licensed veterinarian. We look forward to receiving your application! We will review it shortly and give you a call to set up a phone interview.  We are thrilled to offer transport services every 3 weeks from Houston to the Pacific Northwest, the Midwest, and the East Coast, ensuring that these incredible pets can find their way to you no matter where you are. This makes the adoption process smooth and convenient, allowing you to focus on welcoming your new family member with open arms. Why should you adopt from a Texas Rescue? Because you will be giving one of our many dogs and cats in need a chance for a better future away from a city that has an animal crisis. We are heartbroken each day with the many incredible and loving animals found wandering our streets. So often are these animals dumped, abandoned, or born on the streets and never find a home to call their own. We are giving them the chance that every animal deserves. We know that since you are looking to add a furry family member to your home here, you will provide the love, care, and attention they need to thrive. Thank you for considering adopting and not shopping. ##2218341##

Story
Hi my name is Nova. I got my name because I was found New Years Eve. Nova the name, means new beginnings and that what this has been for me. New year, new me and new beginning to happy every after. This is my year of no more worries! Some nice people with the rescue got me as I was running up and down the road scared near the highway. They tried to find my owners, but didn't have any luck. Since being saved I have made all kids of friends. SOOOO many look like me! At first, I was a little nervous then realized, I love having friends big and small, human and dog of both. Cats I am not sure about yet as I haven't met one that my rescue knows. I am super smart. My finder says you can see me thinking and processing. I have energy, but am calmer for a GSD, but still love a good walk and fun activities, being smart is strongest superpower. I am crate and house trained as well. Do pretty well on a leash too, but I am not one to brag. I do to a couple day to process my new environment, but that is my big brain processing all the new information as I evaluate the situation to see who my best friend will be and give me the most cuddles and treats. If you are interested in me, please complete the application link below! https://new.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/NAF/Dog I am located in San Antonio, TX, but a video meet and greet is available. Transport is included with out of state adoption along with health certificates to ensure all vetting is current before transport.

Meet Lolli, the Energetic and Loving Terrier! This playful 6-month-old spayed girl is searching for an active, experienced family to call her own.

Very active family: She needs lots of exercise and would do best with owners who enjoy walking, running, or hiking. Children in home are 10+: Lolli is still learning manners and may be a bit mouthy or jumpy, making her a better fit for older children. About Lolli: Endless energy: Lolli is a high-energy dog who loves to play and explore. Some training done: She's already crate-trained and eager to learn new commands. If you're an active family looking for a loyal and energetic companion, Lolli might be the perfect fit for you!

Story
Meet Rex! Rex is searching for a new home - no fault of his own.  His current owners are in poor health and looking to move into assisted living. He needs help quickly.  Rex would do best in a home with another dog and/or cat, as he’s used to living with other animals. Young children would be too energetic for Rex, but we think he could do well with older, gentle children.    Rex is 6 yrs old and is guessed to be a Shepard/Husky mix.  Rex is a shy and gentle guy who appreciates having time to warm up to new people and situations.  His sweet nature shines through once he’s comfortable.  Rex is highly food motivated which makes training easier. If you have treats, you are an immediate friend.  He knows “sit”, “paw” and “gentle”.  Rex has mostly been in a fenced area, so will need support and training with his leash walking.   Rex will be neutered prior to going to his new home.   Rex has lived a quiet life so still gets a little nervous in unfamiliar environments or with new people.  He's best introduced slowly and given time to adjust at his own speed.  Rex is not aggressive; he is a sensitive boy and is unsure of himself. He’s still figuring out how to navigate the outside world. He can jump when excited, but with the right training, he'll quickly learn to keep all four paws on the ground!   Rex is ready to bond with a new family who can support him through his journey of becoming the confident, happy pup we know he can be!        December 4, 2024, 8:48 am
