Story
Wolfie is a sociable, energetic boy who loves people and enjoys meeting other dogs, though he can be intimidating at first and may need a confident introduction before he settles in. He’s eager to play and he has a playful streak with water hoses that never fails to bring a smile. He weighs 89 pounds and is approximately 3-4 years old.??Wolfie is still learning the leash. He is learning to come when called and sits nicely when prompted. He is a homebody at heart, but he still needs plenty of exercise to burn off his occasional bursts of energy. He also enjoys walks with his humans.??Located in Houston, Texas. Transport to most states available for an additional fee of $300.

Story
Meet Beetle! Beetle is a sweet, fun-loving pup with a heart as big as his personality! Full of energy and always up for playtime. He is super smart and loves learning new things. Beetle loves to play tug of war and ball and squeak his toys. After playtime, Beetle is very affectionate and loves spending time with his people, even sitting fully in your lap. Whether that be playing tug or cuddling on your couch, Beetle is your guy. This dog would greatly benefit from a foster home where they can continue to thrive and blossom. If you’re interested in fostering, please submit a foster application here: https://www.houstonhumane.org/volunteer/become-a-foster

Story
5 yo Axel and his sister Canada were rescued by their foster mom from a backyard breeder, and it was clear that they have gone through a lot in life. They are now looking for their forever home, where they can chase each other and play in a fully fenced yard. Axel and Canada are very calm and quiet husky-malamute pups, weighing 60 lb. They are not socialized much, so we would like to find them a home with no other pets. Axel and Canada used to live in a crate 24 hours and used for breeding only. They came to us sad and depressed. They only had each other, therefore we are unwilling to separate them, as they really need each other after going through so much. They were going to be put down, as the landlord of the place where they live, is threatening to take them to the pound, and the neighbor threatens to poison them. But this is very Texas. Their foster mom lives in fear for that and we hope we can find them a great home. They both enjoy being outside and going on car rides. They know the leashes very well. They get very excited, so they will pull when walking them. They need a dog owner with active lifestyles and plenty of time. They know to shake before going into the house. They know their beds. They know to sit before taking a snack. They both enjoy being outside chewing on a rawhide-free toy under the sun. They do like sun-bathing. Canada is the female black and white Siberian Husky. She is about 60 lbs. She enjoys lower back scratches and being brushed. Canada likes to watch and stare at anything you do. She is a curious girl. She is still hesitant about humans. So please be easy and slow with her. She likes to start by smelling your hands. I guess that’s her way of knowing if their evil hands or good hands. She does not do well with children of all ages, just adults. She doesn’t mind meeting other dogs. Axel is the white malamute/husky mix. He is about 63 lbs, and he is a jolly boy. He will greet anyone with a big grin, a wagging tail, and the happy energy that only a husky can emanate. He will sit with his back against your two feet and wait for pets. He is smart. He knows the drill. Once you have a routine, he will get it quickly. He likes to get on furniture. His personality is lively. He is a toy hogger. He likes to have access to all the toys. He doesn’t like meeting other dogs, especially small breeds. He prefers to only play with his sister, Canada. He loves getting his belly rubbed. He enjoys cuddles, too. These two need positive reinforcement after what they have been through. They deserve a chance to live the other half of their lives being huskies. Canada and Axel both really have the best of hearts. They just need love. They are fully vetted, fixed and chipped. They would do good with anyone with previous husky experience. They are bonded, so they have to find a home where they can be adopted together. They are not tested with cats, and they do get excited upon seeing dogs. They are both heartworm negative and is kept on heartworm and flea preventative. The pups are being fostered in Texas, but can travel to any state, and even Canada for the right home. Their adoption fee and transport fee together is $500 To meet these gorgeous pups via facetime or whatsapp or other video chat apps, please send a completed application via www.savesomesouls.com Yards MUST BE adequately and fully fenced to adopt our pups. We do not accept electric or underground fences.

Story
BE READY TO MATCH HER ENTHUSIASM  DOB 1/10/24, weight 34 lbs Honey is a young, energetic girl with a sweet, loving personality. She is spunky, playful, and would thrive in an active home that can match her enthusiasm. Honey loves going on walks and runs, playing fetch, and spending time outside when weather permits. She enjoys playing with other dogs and has a fun, curious side -- especially when it comes to chasing squirrels! When playtime is over, she is affectionate and cuddly and loves being close to her people. Honey is also very smart and eager to learn. She knows Sit, Lie Down, Spin, Shake, and enjoys being mentally and physically engaged. Despite a difficult start in life where she wound up on the streets, Honey is trusting, gentle, and eager to form strong bonds with her forever family! HOPE ID D26-0117-0002 Honey’s $200 adoption fee includes the spay, vaccines, microchip, heartworm test, negative fecal test, and monthly prevention for heartworms and fleas.  To apply online, go to: http://www.homelesspets.net/adoption-forms/dog-adoption.php.  Submitting an application does not obligate you to adopt from us but it initiates contact with us and gets the process started.

Story
GENTLE GIANT  DOB 5/29/21, weight 74 lbs. Meet Charles! This stunning boy is large for this breed but otherwise could be the Siberian Husky poster dog. He has a “woolie” coat and, like all Huskies, a double coat.  Charles would do great living in a cold climate!   Charles is very sociable and can be affectionate and seek human attention too. He is good with children, very gentle. He rarely barks or howls except when he hears sirens when outside.  He is basically low-energy and very calm for the breed.  He will play tag/wrestle-mania with his sibling sister, Mary Beth, which often becomes very animated.  Trips to the dog park, walks in the neighborhood and treats really excite Charles.  He needs some physical activity every day. If given the chance he will escape and needs tall and secure fencing. Charles would be a great addition to a pet parent that is familiar with the Husky breed and is looking for a new family member. He has spent his whole life with his sibling sister Mary Beth but they do not have to be adopted together as long as he has another large dog in his life. HOPE ID D25-0517-0028 Charles’s $200 adoption fee includes the neuter, vaccines, microchip, negative heartworm test, negative fecal test, and monthly prevention for heartworms and fleas.  To apply online, go to: http://www.homelesspets.net/adoption-forms/dog-adoption.php.  Submitting an application does not obligate you to adopt from us but it initiates contact with us and gets the process started. If you have questions prior to filling out the application or want to find out which adoption site Charles will be at this weekend, email us at lisagilchrist16@gmail.com and a volunteer will get back to you.
