Story
Meet Moonpie Lonestar….or “Moonie” as she is called in her foster home in Texas. This sweet angel was pulled from an East Texas shelter at 5 weeks old and has been in a foster home ever since. She has the cutest curly tail, flappy ears, and stripe down her back! Her foster home has 6 other dogs (2 great danes, 4 small), 3 cats, & the occasional toddler for babysitting. Moonie loves all people, all animals, and being outside. She sits like a little lady when it’s meal time and waits patiently for her food. She is easily self entertained with a toy. Her favorite is wrestling with her foster sister Daisy and getting the “zoomies” outside in the grass. Her and Daisy run around outside every chance they get! She currently sleeps in a kennel at night time but sure does love to snuggle inside while watching tv or after her little belly is full. She is doing wonderfully with potty training and will go to the door when she needs to.  She loves to wear her little matching bandana with her foster siblings and poses very good for the camera! Little Moonie is ready to find her furever family!  Moonpie is microchipped, spayed, up to date on vaccines and her adoption fee is $495. She is 2-3 months old and weigh 7 lbs.  Apply to adopt MOONPIE LONESTAR at www.ehrdogs.org March 31, 2025, 11:03 am

Nico is about 2-3 years old and weighs about 18 pounds.  He's a friendly little guy with a great demeanor.  He's gotten along famously with the other fosters and resident dogs in his foster home, and had great play dates with Rico.  Nico is neutered, up to date on core vaccines and microchipped.     Interested in adopting me?  To fill out an application visit 3 Hearts 4 Paws.  Please note: we generally do not adopt out of state unless it is within 1-2 hours of us.  Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.March 30, 2025, 8:58 pm

Story
Meet Cashew...... Cashew and some siblings were pulled from a puppy mill in Wisconsin. We were told this breed mix was not popular enough for pet store sales. This is a full shedding breed mix and doesn't yield high end pet store prices. Cashew is a 13 week old male Pug / Boston Terrier. He is 3/4 pug and only 1/4 Boston Terrier. Cashew is very sweet, playful and affectionate. This breed mix is fantastic with kids and other dogs. We estimate his full growth weight to be around 12 - 15 pounds. Cashew is a dark colored brindle color. He is very unique looking. Cashew will be popular.
