Story
Jake is a real love. He is truly a companion dog. He just loves people. In fact, his favorite is to sit in the kitchen while you cook. Everything is better when Jake's around. He was rescued from California and has rebounded magnificently. He gets along with all the other dogs at the rescue and loves horses. He follows them around the ranch just like the old Texas cowboys used to do. He is current on all his vaccinations and heartworm negative. He is a very gentle dog and great on the leash. Nature trail anyone? Give us a buzz and let us introduce you to our sweet boy, Jake.May 23, 2024, 3:59 pm

Story
Meet Puffy: Professional Napper, Aspiring Zoo Keeper, and Certified Good Boy Ladies and gentlemen, roll out the red carpet because Puffy is here to steal your sofa—and your heart. This handsome, big ol’ marshmallow of an American Bulldog comes equipped with stunning looks (seriously, models are jealous) and a nap schedule tighter than a CEO’s calendar. Puffy’s daily agenda? Sleep while you “work” (he knows you're watching TikToks). Grace you with his presence during TV time. Briefly pounce on his beloved blue jolly ball in the yard—just enough to remind you he could be an athlete. Return to the couch for another nap. Repeat as needed. But Puffy is more than just a handsome face and a champion napper. This guy is basically Dr. Doolittle—he’s lived with cats, parrots, and even giant tortoises. He’s ready to run your household like a gentle, slightly wobbly zookeeper. Speaking of wobbly, Puffy has a neurological condition that makes him a little unsteady on his paws, so he’s looking for a calm, quiet home where he can stay safe on the first floor (stairs are for peasants anyway). Training? Puffy’s got that down. He knows "sit," "down," and "place," and will do anything for praise. Seriously—call him a good boy and he’ll move mountains for you (or, at least, move slightly faster toward his next nap). Treats also work wonders, because Puffy knows snacks are life. Ready to upgrade your life with Puffy, the world’s handsomest, snooziest and most lovable sidekick? Follow his adventures on Instagram at @omg_its_puffy to see how ridiculously adorable he is. Puffy’s just looking for a comfy couch, a quiet home, and someone to call him a good boy forever. Will it be you?

Things Ollie's fosters love about Ollie (get ready--it's a long list!): "We love watching movies with him. We love training with him and the satisfaction that he gets from earning treats. We love to take him running and hiking, and to play his favorite games with him, like fetch and tug of war. We love his silky ears and his happy personality. We love that even though he's big and strong, he's actually a giant softie. We love that he's loyal and loves his person to death. We love how good he is at catching and how much he enjoys fetch." Keri, former foster "Ollie is such a silly boy. I'm definitely going to miss laughing at the silly things he does throughout the day. He's a big baby in a giant dogs body. He's a big cuddler too, but will sigh really loudly if you move too much during cuddle sessions."-Sama, former foster -Ollie is described by his shelter friends as a puppy in a big dog body. And we couldn't agree more! He is goofy, energetic, and just so excited about eveeeerything! He's engaging, playful and affectionate. We can't emphasize enough how much this sweet boy loves his friends! -Ollie loves playing with toys, and it is pure joy to see the wheels turning as he tries to decide which one is the absolute perfect one. He also enjoys going on walks and he checks in with his person regularly. -Ollie has potential to live with a well-matched dog pal! He often enjoys rowdy, goofy play with other rowdy or tolerant dogs in playgroup, and we think another rough-and-tumble or social sibling would match well with him.

We have witnessed a tremendous recovery, and we know she will do well moving forward. She has a dominant personality around other dogs, and seems curious around cats.

Story
Meet Max... Max is a sweet guy who loves humans, small and big. He's good with most dogs as well. Max enjoys nothing more than being around his people and snuggle up but he's also ready to go for car rides or enjoy outdoor activities with his family. He is house and kennel trained. While Max is good with most dogs we recommend female dogs. Max only issue is that he is food aggressive with other dogs (not with people) so he has to get fed in his kennel or in another room. This is something that's easy to manage. Max was abandoned together with 6 other dogs in an apartment in deplorable conditions. He was there for 3 weeks when we heard about it and rescued him and the others. So we can't blame him that he does not want to share his food. Other than that he's an absolutely great dog. If you would like to make this cuddle bug a permanent member of your family please fill out our adoption application at adoption.poundpupandfriends.org

Hello friends! I’m Gremlin the couch potato and I love to snack and snuggle. I am a 6 year old bully who loves to lounge and snuggle but I’ll turn circles for treats and play time! I will dance for snacks and I love it when you dance with me. I was rescued from a shelter in San Antonio in rough shape. After a long road I am now super ready to have a couch and a family to call my own. I do very well in the bath and I don’t mind having my nails trimmed. I am not a fan of other dogs but could do ok with an older, mellow male as U don't like hyper dogs that get into my face. Cats are a No No for me but I love all humans, large and small alike and I am a people pleaser. I love my daily strolls and get very excited when someone says the W word. (Walks are my favorite) If your interested in making me a furever member of your family please fill out an application for me at adoption.poundpupandfriends.org

These pups are in Austin, Texas too!

Cookie came to us from Victoria Animal Control after being hit by a car. She was unable to stand and was in severe pain. Luckily, she found a foster home where she was able to heal and turn into her sweet self.  Cookie is a little skittish at first but is very sweet once she’s settled.  Because she’s sensitive and shy, we think she’d do best in a quiet home as the only dog. October 14, 2024, 3:59 pm

Story
7/14/2023 Pancho II is an owner surrender looking for a new home. Hi! My name is Pancho! I am a 1.5 year old handsome brindle boy that is an owner surrender due to dynamics in my family changing and they are no longer able to provide me with the time that I need since moving into my second home. I am described as active, friendly, smart, protective, and playful. I currently live with other resident dogs and we are said to get along fine. There are no kids in my home but when I had exposure to kids at the dog park, I was fine with them. I do not live with cats but will bark at them from the house when they walk by, so it is unsure if I am feline friendly. I do need some help with learning how to be house trained and crate trained, if that is required in my forever home. I am a quick learner so these should be easy for me to learn. Currently I sleep outside but would love to sleep indoors like I have in the past. If I must be left alone, it is suspected that I could be curious and not have the best behavior because I’m used to being left alone with the resident dogs and used to having company. When I am outside I do not attempt to jump fences/gates but I am curious about what is under the grass and will dig to find out. Some of my favorite things are riding in the car, wrestling and chasing other dogs, watching tv, going to the dog park, being with the humans, and cuddling. If you are looking for a sweet and active boy, look no further! Contact the rescue today and give them my name because I am waiting to meet you! ##1771746##
