If you're a single gal or guy looking for a hiking buddy. We think Peachy is your pup! She would totally love a mom & dad all to herself.

A Peachy perk she loves the cold and tolerates the heat well, too. Perfect to be an outdoorsy pup. House trained, kennel trained. Leashed trained. Loves to snuggle and give kisses.TGPR.org

Story
His foster named hm Jelly Roll for the same reason some giants are named Tiny- you cannot believe how skinny this poor, sweet guy is. But if you know us, he'll be back in shape in no time and living up to his name! I know we're a Pyr rescue, but I can never say no to a big, long-legged, awkward, goofball of an Akbash. The big galoot! He is absolutely the sweetest dog in the universe.

Story
Casper was found on the side of the road and taken home by a kind finder who cared for him, neutered and vaccinated and got him on heart worm prevention. He's likely mixed with Akbash another wonderful livestock guardian breeds. He's been cared for but still needs house manners and leash training but will go to his crate on demand and comes when called for. He's wonderful with kids of all ages and other dogs, not yet tested with cats. With some structure, this dog could be your bestest boy with all the great characteristics of the breed, calm, friendly, watchful, loyal, well balanced. If you're looking for a sweet, mature 3 year old, he can be your guy! More photos coming soon!

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Tyana is one of several dogs who were found on a ranch in the Texas Hill Country. We can only speculate, but we believe that the property owners moved away and left the dogs to fend for themselves.  Tyana's mom Lydia is VERY friendly, but her pups (two generations) are completely unsocialized, so we're guessing they may have been born after the people moved. It's quite possible that the Animal Control Officers who hauled away Tyana and her family were the first humans that she ever had any close contact with. At Windsong Ranch, Tyana is very slowly learning to trust me, but she is still extremely skittish of people in general. Getting her to walk on a leash in order to go to the vet's office is a real challenge, but we've managed it, and once at the vet's office, Tyana has remained calm and quiet. She seems content to stay inside the house, but seems happier and less anxious when she is outside. Tyana gets along well with other dogs and is very playful with them. We believe she would do best in a home with a confident male dog, who can help her see that humans are trustworthy. Due to her skittish nature, she MUST go to a home with secure (visible) fencing. If you are ready to make the commitment to devote yourself to earning Tyana's trust, please complete the application on our website. NOTE: I really struggle to get decent photos of Tyana -- she almost always looks very anxious, even when she's happy -- it's like she's in witness protection and thinks that having her photo taken puts her life at risk. In some of these photos, she is hanging out with other unsocialized or feral dogs, and moments before I pulled out my phone, they were usually happy and smiling, but as soon as I point the camera at them, most of them look like I might be about to kill them. Silly dogs. Also, in some photos, she has what looks like an injury diagonal across her face. Nope, that's just a berry stain. Tyana likes to dig, and it shows in some of these photos.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Young Bennie was picked up as a stray in our rural area, so we don't know anything about his past. He came into rescue with some skin issues which are being treated. At the moment, we're not sure whether he has seasonal allergies, or whether his itchiness was all related to Demodectic mange, which is very common in puppies and young dogs. What we DO know is that Bennie is sweet as can be! In his foster home, he loves having plenty of room for running his zoomies, and he enjoys playing with other dogs. He enjoys sleeping on a big comfy dog bed, and he is a little bit of a hoarder with his stuffed animal toys. Bennie has been neutered and vaccinated, and is ready to find his happily ever after story. Apply here!  Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.October 28, 2024, 12:12 pm

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.In late 2022, a family of 7 Akbash dogs were found as strays and trapped in Emory, Texas - 2 adults and 5 pups. Maria was thought to be the mom of the pups. Before rescuers were able to trap Maria, she was critically injured, most likely hit by a car. She managed to drag herself off the side of the road and into the woods. Thankfully we were able to find her and take her to our vet where x-rays showed that her pelvis had been shattered into several pieces, and her leg suffered multiple breaks including a splintered femoral head. Maria's best shot at surviving her injuries required amputating the damaged leg so that the weight of the leg wouldn't cause further injury to the pelvis. Maria has made tremendous progress in her recovery, and now is fully ambulatory as a tripawd. She's not going to enter any marathons, but she can walk and run in her play yard with no problems. She even manages to stand firm when her pups (who each weigh around 70 lbs now) stand up and put their front paws on her back. Her pups are almost as big as she is, so she has to be pretty sturdy to handle their weight on her back. Maria is a big, friendly girl who loves attention from her humans. She will stand right next to you, standing with one of her paws on your foot so that you can pet her. During her recovery, Maria got used to using puppy pads to do her business. Now, she waits until we let her outside. She is crate-trained and seems to like her crate as a good place to escape the rowdiness of her daughters. If Maria sounds like the perfect dog for you, please submit your application here: Welcome to BARN (bluebonnetrescue.org).Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.October 28, 2024, 12:12 pm

Story
Hello. My name is Vaughn. I am a 2 year old, female, Great Pyr mix. I was recently surrendered by my owners as they could not continue to take care of me. So now, I am looking for my new furever home. I am 90lbs of pure love to give and am looking for a home to match my playful energy. Being the breed that I am, I do shed quite a bit but it can be maintained with regular brushing. I am dog selective and have made a friend since I arrived but if you have another dog in the home, a meet and greet is suggested to make sure we get along. My adoption fee is $125. I am spayed, microchipped, current on my rabies vaccine, boosters to date and heartworm negative. If you are interested in adoption, please submit your online adoption application at https://rockwalladoptions.com/adoptfoster/adoption-application/  All animals, unless otherwise noted in their description, are at 1825 Airport Rd. in Rockwall, TX. Hours of operation are Monday-Friday 9 am to 6 pm and Saturdays 9 am to 5 pm. For questions, please call 972-771-7750 ext. 2 or email info@RockwallAdoptions.com.

If you are adopting a pet under the age of 12 weeks or an animal that has not yet been spayed or neutered, you will be required to return the pet to our facility on the agreed upon date set at the time of adoption.

Hi! I'm Spencer! I'm an approximately 12 week old(as of 1/16/2025), male, Great Pyr mix. I am still a young guy so meet and greets will be by approved application only. I tested positive for Parvo on December 18th and have since survived the virus! After beating parvo, I came down with an upper respiratory infection and have successfully beaten that! I am one strong, little guy and am excited to find my furr ever home. I am a cuddly little dude who is still learning my way around this great big world! Since I am a puppy, I will need help with basic training and commands to help me to thrive as an adult! My adoption fee is $125. I am neutered, microchipped, current on rabies vaccination, 1st dewormer, and 1st set of puppy boosters.

Story
Max is turning 5 years old end of April 2025 and was adopted at 8 weeks old and was raised around little kids so he does very well with kids. He is good with other dogs as well (boarded in dog hotels many times and never had any issues). He is crate trained and sleeps in his crate at night. He loves hugs and kisses and playing catch with the ball. He is very gentle and naturally a guard dog. Loves to chill and sleep most day. When adopted/rehomed, we will provide crate, eating bowls and tray, food container and maybe some food, shampoo and dog poop bags along with toys.
