Story
I have started working more and going to college. I do not have the time to give Daisy the time and exercise she deserves. She loves children and is very gentle around my 8 year old daughter. Sometimes she gets out and just hangs out with the kids in the neighborhood. Daisy is pretty good off leash and will stay next to you or in the front yard unless there is another dog or cat. Her interactions with dogs are hit and miss and will need to be monitored. She got bit in the face at the dog park once and has been cautious of other dogs since that day. She will come with leash, food/container, food bowls, anti worm/flea meds(given monthly), leash, harness, collar, bed, etc... basically everything I have for her so that you won't have to invest any money at first for what she needs.

Story
Bruno is 7 years old, has never bitten anyone, and has a very good temperament. Hes not very hipper except when first meeting someone. He loves taking walks and playing tug-a-war. He is reactive to bigger dogs but does very well with cats and children. He doesn't know his strength sometimes though and so probably wouldn't be ideal with small children. He's started to have some hip problems and he has a very sensitive stomach and need to eat special food or else he'll thow up. I love Bruno very much but am no longer able to afford keeping him. I've had him since he was a puppy, so he may have some difficulties adjusting to a new home. He is potty trained but does have some accidents especially when he is stressed, in a new environment, or left alone for an extrended period of time. He needs a lot of love and attention and knows a few commands but only really preforms them with treats. He doesn't recall so will need to be leashed whenever out.

Story
Meet Bert! He and his brother Ernie were rescued from a high kill shelter in TX, just days before they were set to be euthanized. They have so many dogs, they had nothing to name them but “Thing 1 and Thing 2”. These two boys are incredibly playful and friendly. Bert and Ernie love people and just want to know what life is like outside of a cage! They’ve been in the shelter for most of their young lives, and are looking for a families to teach them what the good life is all about. Like most puppies, they’d love an active family who takes them for walks, rides in the car, and to teach them how to be their best doggie selves. Their adoption fee includes neuter, microchip, and vaccinations. Bert arrives in Boise on 8/26 and we do adopt to surrounding states as well. Please apply below! Www.freedomboundhounds.com/adopt

Story
Introducing Jackson, or as we like to call him, Jack Teller - a true survivor who has overcome countless obstacles in his journey. Imagine finding him at an intersection, abandoned and scared, anxiously waiting for his owners to return. It breaks your heart, doesn't it? But don't worry, this story has a happy ending. Despite his rough start, Jack Teller has blossomed into a remarkable companion. Like any dog, he was initially wary of new faces, but it didn't take long for him to realize that there are kind-hearted souls out there who only want to shower him with love and affection. And boy, did he surprise us all! Jack Teller turned out to be the friendliest pup around, melting hearts left and right with his warm greetings and wagging tail. He's not just good with people, but dogs too - a true social butterfly! Like many of our Tx dogs he is being treated for heartworms. NOTHING to worry about as this is very common here.  We will provide the medication to continue his treatment.   If you're looking for a hiking buddy or simply a furry friend to join you on leisurely strolls, Jack Teller is your guy. He absolutely loves going on walks and exploring the great outdoors. Plus, he's a pro when it comes to crate training. Talk about an all-around good boy! But here's the best part - this gentle soul is a hidden treasure, waiting to be discovered by the perfect forever family. We believe that every dog deserves a loving home, and Jack Teller is no exception. That's why we make regular trips to the Pacific Northwest, including a special stop in Bellingham, WA, just for our Canadian friends. If you're interested in adopting Jack Teller or want to find out more about him, head over to www.springbranchrescue.org. Don't miss out on the chance to welcome this incredible pup into your life. Trust us, it'll be a decision you won't regret. Why should you adopt from a Texas Rescue? Because you will be giving one of our many dogs and cats in need a chance for a better future from a city that has an animal crisis.  We are heartbroken each day with the many incredible and loving animals found wondering our streets.  So many have been dumped and cannot find their way home.  Many never even had a home and were born on the streets.  WE gave them a chance.  Every animal deserves a chance.We know if adopted by you they will be loved and cared for . We believe in our local and out of state applicants.  There is a reason we drive to the Pacific Northwest every 2 weeks.  You are worth the drive. We have AMAZING adopters and we need more like them.  No matter if you live here in Houston, the Pacific Northwest or Canada we welcome you!  Thank you for considering to adopt and not shop.  If we are in Houston, then how can you see our posts?   Spring Branch Rescue has fosters all over the Pacific Northwest allowing us to post in specific cities. Yes our rescue is in Houston.  Our available animals live with foster families.  This is a win for you as the transition from our home to yours will be a much easier one.  We do have foster homes in your area.  This is why you are able to see our posts.  Unfortunatelly Meet & Greets have been cancelled due to Covid Restrictions.  Almost all our animals traveling have been adopted.  We have been doing this since 2019 and very successful.  Please take a look at our adopters reviews https://greatnonprofits.org/org/spring-branch-rescue ##1714321##

Story
Tiny and Marlie are very gentle and good-natured dogs that we would love to see adopted together if possible. Both are cuddlers although Marlie prefers to lay on top of you rather than to the side. They are both such sweethearts and love people. They're good with kids. With new people and situations, however, Marlie is a little timid at first. These youngsters are super playful and love toys, treats, and bones. Tiny lives to play tug-of-war or keep-away and his favorite toys are ropes. Marlie is content with a chew and a shade tree. They are both treat-motivated. Once, their temporary foster mom took them to a park where there were other dogs and while Marlie was a bit standoffish, she didn't act like she minded the other animals. In the temporary foster home they did not get along with the senior Pitty but were okay with the other dogs. It is hard to say if they will do best with just the two of them or be fine with another friendly, confident dog of middle age. Marlie walks with a hunch in her back like maybe she sustained an injury at some point that wasn’t treated. The landlord at the apartment where they came from said there was a time when she didn't get around much and seemed like she hurt her "rear leg or something". Tiny stayed at her side the entire time. These two are a bonded pair, not siblings, but they love each other dearly. From what we were told, their prior owner tried to separate them at one point and they both did poorly. They are very attached to each other. That being said, the situation was already less than ideal, and they probably needed each other to cope. They can go to separate fosters if needed, but after the trauma and abandonment they have endured, we would love to keep them together. They absolutely love car rides and behave wonderfully. They have great leash manners. They get along with the cats in their home. Both are estimated to be about one year old at the beginning of July, 2024. They are in our satellite foster group in the Salt Lake City area.

Story
This girl is a bundle of joy! Chloe is a true snuggle bunny & loves to get pets. She is good on a leash & sleeps quietly in a kennel at night. She loves to be a part of the family & be in the middle of the action. She's selective about her friends & would be good as an only dog or have a submissive dog as a buddy. We recommend having a meet n greet with other pups she may live with. She is house trained. She is fully vetted, heartworm negative & on preventatives, spayed, & microchipped. She is being fostered in Seguin, TX. All our dogs come with 30 days of free post-adoption support through Petcademy.org. This benefit includes free access to Petcademy's team of trainers/behaviorists, as well as access to online materials that will help you settle your new family member into your home. You can text unlimited questions to Petcademy and they'll respond within 24 hours (Monday-Friday).
