Story

Eddie is a male miniature Aussie that I adopted in 2022 when he was not quite 2 years old. He was handed over by a breeder as he had failed to produce and was clearly neglected and very scared of people. He is now 4 years old and despite coming a long way, is still very anxious. I was working from home until November last year but have since changed jobs and work long days, leaving him alone at home and locked indoors 5 days a week. He loves to be outside and going for walks is a favourite part of the day, but I am not always able to take him since changing jobs. Being left alone at home is also taking its toll and he seems to be getting more anxious again. He needs a home with a yard and human companionship throughout the day. I do have an older dog and they get along fine, but they are very different (old boy is a Pekingese) and as such do not play together. My neighbours have younger dogs and Eddie plays with them whenever we are together, so another dog would not be a problem.

Story

He’s a big sweetie Velcro dog who loves butt scratches and knuckles ear rubs. He’s great on leash and following commands, would be a great show dog if that’s what you’re into, though you may have to get him back in shape! He likes to cuddle and sleep on the bed, and he might lick you a little too much.. but he usually stops if you tell him to… sometimes it’s easier to cave in 😂 Apollo has been our dog for the past 7 years. We adopted him at 6 months from a local breeder, but it was immediately clear he had behavioral issues, he can be aggressive with strangers, and is especially anxious around kids. Regardless we chose to give him the best life that we could, but unfortunately his behavior toward our toddler has not improved in the last 18 months and we’ve been forced to keep them separated. This type of life is unfitting of such an otherwise caring dog. A home w/o pets or children is probably best, though he loves boarding and tolerates our other dog.

Story

Hello! I'm Archer and I'm hoping to find a forever home. I love to run around with other dogs, young or old, and have no problem keeping up with them even though I am on the older side. I love to voice my opinions with an "awoo" when I am happy and often show my joy with a sweet smile. I don't always understand kids, and would most likely prefer a home with older children over 12. I know how to sit, shake and roll over.... Aren't I smart?! I know how to walk pretty well on the leash and I love kisses and hugs. Come meet me today!

Story

Kane is a very well-behaved and well-trained dog who absolutely loves to have a job, and loves to play the game fetch. His main goal is to please his owners. Kane is a very loving dog as well who loves snuggles and belly rubs. My partner and I adore Kane and think the world of him, but unfortunately, we both have become very busy with our careers and don't feel it is fair to Kane not to be given the amount of attention he deserves. Kane is a dog who never barks, can be left alone without being destructive at all, and loves people and other dogs. He is house-trained and is great on long walks or hikes and loves to be outdoors. I want Kane to go to a home that will give him enough attention and love throughout the day and excersise that he deserves.

Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Nebula, a truly beautiful dog. While her past holds some hardship – she was found living on the streets with her seven puppies – her spirit shines through. Nebula is a sweet and beautiful girl, possessing a gentle nature that will blossom with the right amount of patience and understanding. Nebula's intelligence is evident in her quick grasp of commands. She's already house-trained and crate-trained, demonstrating a willingness to learn and adapt. She enjoys walks immensely, exhibiting a calm and easy-going temperament. What Nebula truly desires is a loving home where she can finally feel safe and secure. While her street life has made her initially cautious around new people, once she builds trust, her playful puppy-like energy resurfaces. It's a beautiful transformation to witness. We believe Nebula would thrive in a quiet and patient home, ideally with someone experienced in working with dogs who have experienced trauma. With the right care, she'll become the most loyal and loving companion imaginable. If you're interested in learning more about Nebula and potentially offering her a loving forever home, please don't hesitate to contact us. $200 In State Adoption Fee (in Texas) $400 Out of State Fee (includes Transportation to your area) $50 Temporary fuel surcharge.
