Story
Ben was born in a high kill shelter on 2/3/2021. He was a day old when we brought him home along with his 10 siblings and his mother. All that remains is Ben and his mom Lily. They have been waiting patiently. But now it is thThis is Ben and he has been with Chloe’s Pet Rescue since he was a newborn. He is now going on three years old. We aren’t sure why he hasn’t found his “furever” home. He’s such a handsome guy. We believe he is an Akita/American Pit Bull mix. Ben is very friendly when meeting new people (after a few sniffs and he’s good to go) and is good with other dogs. In fact, if it looks like another dog wants to get into a tiff, he walks away. Ben is energetic and loves to go outdoors. He’s great walking on a leash, knows come here, stop, breakfast and dinner and is crate and house trained. One of his favorite things to play with is a ball. Something he does not like is rain and thunder. Don’t go out and buy a new bed for this guy because he will chew it up, just throw a blanket down and he is very content. Ben’s adoption fee is $25, which includes his full vetting.

Story
Moki is a little over a year old & is not neutered. He's goofy, playful & sweet. He did not come with papers, but I did get A DNA test done & he is full blooded Akita. I went through a divorce about a year ago & with my busy schedule, I unfortunately no longer have time to take care of him the way he needs to be. I really don't want to do this but see no other choice. I'm hoping to find someone with the time to take care of him and love him like a member of their family.

Who says your soulmate has to have 2 legs? Hi! My name is Yeti and I will fit just like your old comfortable shoes if you give me a chance. I was super cute as a puppy, but now at age 8 I am the perfect companion. No need to potty train me! I enjoy naps and cuddles and it might take me a little time for me to get used to a new family, but for sure once we get to know each other we will be best friends. I am not fond of cats or small dogs, but get along well with the four legged friends my size. I would do best with older kids in the house.  Please fill an application at https://texashuskyrescue.org/apply-to-adopt/ and let’s be happy together!    November 3, 2024, 1:08 am

Story
2 year old Jackson is looking for his forever people! Jackson is the cutest little floofball there is! Despite being deaf, Jackson is incredibly smart and it doesn’t slow him down. He’s picking up hand signs and learning from watching his big foster siblings, who he gets along with great! Jackson was diagnosed with Megaesophagus and needs a family that can support him so that he can live out his best life ever! What is Megaesophagus and how is it treated? Megaesophagus is a disorder in which the esophagus dilates and loses its ability to move food to the stomach. This causes the food to accumulate in the esophagus and can lead to regurgitation. Overall treatment involves managing the symptoms to help the food go down to digest. Jackson will need to be fed ALL his meals in a Bailey Chair (second photo) which gets him in an upright position about 45-90 degrees to the floor and will need to remain in the chair for at least 15 minutes after feeding. He already is great at getting in his chair and staying in it to eat! If you feel like you are the perfect fit for Jackson and ready to give him all the support he needs in return for cute cuddles, loads of fun, and cuteness in his very own high chair then visit https://texashuskyrescue.org/apply-to-adopt/ November 3, 2024, 1:08 am

Story
Aurora (Rory) is a 4 year old wooly and is playful, loving, mischievous, snuggly and SMART! She gives the sweetest little kisses, is very quiet in general but when she does get excited and bark, it's the softest little sound that you can't help but smile at. She is in a home with two big husky brothers and despite being a special needs dog, she has established herself as the dominant queen of the pack.   She's trained to sit, wait, shake, down and is fully potty trained with the doggie door.  She has free reign of the house 24 hours a day, but is also crate trained.    She immediately becomes everyone's favorite as soon as they meet her (much to her foster brother's dismay) because she has such a sweet and funny little personality. She loves to lay on your feet or sit snuggled up on the sofa and look at you with her sweet puppy eyes. She's not been exposed to cats so it's unclear if she is cat friendly or not. She's been around children and is unsure of them but is very curious. Rory is a special needs dog with an unnamed neurological condition.  We originally thought she had degenerative myelopathy but her symptoms have been very consistent for the last year.  Thankfully that's marked off the list of what she has.  It's now thought that she might have a lesion on her brain since she's not regressed since entering the program over a year ago.   With her neurological condition, her brain doesn't communicate with her back end which causes her to have less feeling and sensation in her back legs.  This causes her to "knuckle" her back toes (especially her left paw).  This causes her to be wobbly and if she plays too hard, and flings her back end around too much, it becomes difficult for her to walk.  The good news is she feels absolutely no pain, the bad news is you have to force her to stop playing  as her back end can't keep up and she could hurt herself in the process.   She has little bootie type splints to keep her toes up when she goes for walks so her knuckles don't drag and she doesn't develop sores on the tops of her back paws. It is expected that as she gets older, she may eventually need to use a doggie wheelchair (which she has!). With Rory's neurological deficiencies, she needs a very specific type of home and owner that will cater to her needs so she can continue to flourish for years to come. Here are a list of requirements to consider when considering Rory as a forever family member:  Requires a single story home with few to no stairs  Requires 2 medications daily (both low cost) Requires walks daily, without fail to keep her muscles active and strong (rain, shine, snow or heat).  Her neurological issues cause her to be temperature sensitive, she is more wobbly in extreme cold and very uncoordinated in extreme heat (so summer walks have to be early in the morning before the heat of the day)  Requires PT every other week (at minimum).  She's currently receiving PT weekly that includes laser therapy, chiropractic adjustments, and water treadmill - all of these treatments have kept her strong and we believe are largely why she's doing so well a year after entering the program.   Requires brushing several times a week. Since she lays around a lot, she gets matted very quickly and with her baby fine (and ohhhh so soft) wooly coat, she needs brushing regularly.  Rory is a really special dog that deserves her own special forever home that will treat her like the princess she is accustomed to being treated like.  If you are interested in giving this special girl a place in your home, please fill out an adoption application at https://texashuskyrescue.org/apply-to-adopt /November 3, 2024, 1:08 am
