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

Meet Clubby, a resilient and affectionate dog with a heart full of love despite his challenging past. Clubby is a true cuddler who thrives on close companionship and enjoys being with people more than anything.

Clubby is crate-trained and house-trained, making him a dependable and easygoing addition to any home. While he prefers to keep his food and toys to himself, he's a gentle and non-destructive companion when left alone. Though he enjoys the company of people, Clubby has the potential to live harmoniously with other dogs, given a proper meet-and-greet to ensure compatibility. When it comes to downtime, Clubby is the ultimate couch potato, ready to snuggle up and relax.

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.

Meet Kiwi, the ultimate sweetie-pie and love bug! This adorable pup thrives on playtime with bigger dogs and has a knack for getting along wonderfully with the neighborhood kids. Kiwi is not just a playful spirit; she's also super pet motivated and a true couch potato at heart. Kiwi's potty training skills are impressive-she'll ring a bell by the door when she needs to go out. As a velcro dog, she's always curious about your activities and loves being close by. She walks well on a leash and knows her basic commands like come, sit, and stay. Cuddling is Kiwi's favorite pastime; she never gets tired of it. Her days are spent chewing bones and lounging around, and she has a charming habit of rolling over to show her belly for pats. Kiwi's cute yawns and habit of laying right next to you will melt your heart. She's known for sleeping in the funniest positions and snoring like a 50-year-old lumberjack. Kiwi loves having multiple spots to lay and cuddle, especially enjoying her private fenced backyard. Loyal to the soil, Kiwi is a loving, silly, gentle, and sweet companion, making her the perfect friend for anyone of any age. Ask about adopting her today!

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

Story
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

Story
Cookie might start off a bit shy, but once she warms up, she becomes a playful puppy with unique quirks. One quirk she has is that she will only walk on your left side. She is always eager and ready to be your walking/running buddy. She has a very independent spirit meaning she’s perfectly content with alone time—Cookie is comfortable staying home for up to 6 hours and loves to nap in her crate, which she considers her safe haven. Fully house-trained and with a gentle demeanor, Cookie is a smart pup who gets along well with other animals and adapts her energy to match yours. Cookie loves sleeping! She’ll happily snooze the day away, but she’s always up for a play session when you’re ready. She is very treat motivated once she opens up to you. Cookie would be great for someone looking for a loyal, low-maintenance, and loving companion.

12/28/2023 Koala is an owner surrender looking for a new home. Hi! My name is Koala! I am an 9-year-old handsome flashy fawn boy that is an owner surrender due to a change in my family’s dynamics and we no longer have access to room to run and play. My brother, Kuda, is also available for adoption and we would love to stay together, meaning twice the amount of boxer love for our forever family! I am described as friendly, active, calm, playful, quiet, obedient, and affectionate. I am dog and kid friendly! I currently live with my fur brother and a 6-year-old kid and do well with both. I have never lived with a cat so it is uncertain if I am feline friendly and a proper introduction would be needed. I am house trained, crate trained, and at night I sleep in my crate. When the owners must be away and I am left alone I do okay but am excited to see my human when they get home! When outside I have good behavior and do not dig or attempt to jump fences/gates. Some of my favorite things are riding in the car, my small rubber tire toy, being outside, my brother Kuda, and cuddling. If you think my brother and I would be a great addition to your family, contact the rescue today and give them our names because we are waiting to meet you! ##1900087##
