My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

A Sweet Litter of Puppies!!

A little group of 5 puppies were brought into the rescue as bottle babies. Their mom had died, and they were too young to eat on their own. So, they came to the rescue to be fed and to grow!

They were born about December 2nd, and are now off the bottle, eating kibble well and growing like proverbial weeds! Their days are a cycle of eating, sleeping, pooing, playing and repeat…typical puppy behavior at this age!

They will get second shots and surgery in early February and will be able to go home after that.
Cocoa is my name, but foster mom calls me Coco-Puff for some reason. I think she is making fun of me for being one of the fluffy puppies in the litter but that is ok. I love being held and cuddled and if I must put up with a dumb name, it is worth it.

I have coloring like a Belgian Malinois like my brother Dark Chocolate, but mine is a lighter coloring. And I have black toes. What is with that? Too weird. It is like they are dirty all of the time but they really aren’t.

I get along with everyone in the house but really love the chihuahua, Bootsie. She comes to greet us in the morning and is like a substitute mom to us, although we are almost the same size! She is fun to play with and is very patient.

Additional adoption info

Adoption application required.

Adoptions applications are checked by contacting references and veterinarians of those with pets to ensure our pups go to the best homes possible. We work hard to place dogs into the right families, but sometimes we realize the fit isn't quite working out for the adopter or the pet..

If an adoption does not work out and we have room to take the dog back into the rescue, we will. However, the sheer number of needy animals in TX usually means we become full quickly after the dog is adopted.

So, in those cases we will post the animal locally, and help the adopter screen applicants and facilitate finding another adoptive home for the pet in your area.

Go meet their pets

We are a TEXAS based rescue who transport regularly to this area. Our dogs are in TEXAS and will be transported to you if you adopt from us.

Our pets are posted on our website, and most live in homes with their fosters. We live with our foster dogs to get to know them in a home setting and to let them know that life can be good away from the streets.

We work to correct poor behaviors, teach manners and observe each dogs particular quirks and personalities so we can give accurate observations of the dogs you are interested in.

We know that dogs will sometimes behave differently with different people but we can give you our impressions of our pups and situations they have been in.
