Story
Meet MAYA (Softy) DOB 4/3/2019 Weight 38 lbs Adoption fee $259 (Adoption fee includes the spay/neuter surgery, age-appropriate current vaccines, microchip, and preventative flea treatment.) Maya is looking for her soulmate. Someone like her that enjoys the peace of a quiet house, one that doesn’t entertain much and keeps to themselves and perhaps has some property or a large back yard where they can spend their days sun bathing or exploring nature together. Maya seeks a home where she doesn’t have to share her person with other animals or children and with a person that is hopelessly devoted to her as she will be to them. Maya had a previous injury to her pelvis and has a slight limp but that doesn't slow her down! She appreciates her walks in secluded settings, cuddling in a warm bed and most of all bear hugs and belly rubs from her favorite person! She will need slow introductions and will need some patience as she adjusts to her new life, but will be a loyal companion once she’s settled in. Take a chance on Maya and see what true love is! Our adoption process and application can be found at - https://www.sunnyskysshelter.org/our-adoption-process For other questions on our dogs/cats or shelter please send an email to info@sunnyskysshelter.org for information on a meet and greet as well as application procedures.

Story
Lucy is a very loving, affectionate, and attentive companion, without being needy. She lives for her “adventures” (walks, runs, hikes) and is always searching out bunny rabbits as well as any other scent left by all critters. At home she will lounge for a while, ask if it’s time for a walk and rest again if denied, then she’ll make her rounds in the yard and rest again until walk time; she wants to please her human. She is not food motivated, and so doesn’t beg, but is curious with all smells Lucy lived with a cat for a few months and, though she would chase and play, she never made an attempt to hurt the cat. Lucy loves to run and play. Lucy is very good on a leash and will listen to commands as well as being aware of the pace of her tethered human, she has on occasion darted after a squirrel so her human needs to be strong enough to hold her when she forgets her manners. Lucy had a tough life for the first 4 years so she will get defensive if a dog snaps at her. Her first priority at a dog park is to run and play with other dogs, but she will defend herself if a dog is aggressive towards her. She de-escalates when pulled out of a scuffle, and she’s tried to make friends again when it’s over. Lucy needs someone who will be attentive to her as well and can intervene if necessary, or just not take her to an off leash dog park. Lucy loves other dogs but is most at ease as an only dog in her forever home. If you think Lucy would be the perfect fit for your family please complete our adoption application. houstonk911rescue.org/adopt Lucy is located in Houston, Texas.
