Story
Hiya! My name is Dario! I’m around 6 years old and 72 lbs. I was really scared and a little shy when I first arrived as a stray here - all my friends have been helping me work on my confidence though, so I now warm up rather quickly! I’m still working on my manners for treat taking, so an open hand will be better! My friends are helping me learn all my manners here and I’m doing a great job at learning! I have been living the shelter life since October, so I am finding myself stressed now. I’m an energetic guy, who loves to run and play! I sometimes jump up for attention, but I do know sit, and I’m quite perfect at it! I still have some puppy-like play in me as well! I’d really just love a home that will take me for walks or have a nice yard to run and play in to burn the energy away! I have been dog tested here and might do well with a tolerant dog friend and slow introductions. So, if I sound like I could be your perfect match, come meet me!This animal is staying in a foster home and is not at the shelter.

Story
Louie was found wandering the streets of Houston when we got him. We believe he is about 5-6 years old. He loves being around people and other dogs. He loves adventure and being active. Louie loves those that are in his circle and he is very loyal. He would do better with a fenced in yard. We have a 5 month old baby, and he is very gentle and sweet with her. We are busy healthcare workers and are looking for a home that is able to devote more time to him.

Story
Tuck`s Compatibility:Dogs - Meet & GreetCats - Passed his cat test!Kids - Best suited for a home with grown-ups onlyMeet Tuck, a sweet and gentle two-year-old pup with a beautiful, Reese`s cup-colored coat that makes him as unique as he is adorable. Tuck is looking for a fresh start and a patient, loving home where he can feel safe and grow in confidence.Tuck’s past has made him a little shy and nervous, especially in new environments and around unfamiliar people. Loud noises, sudden movements, and crowded spaces can overwhelm him, so he’ll need a calm, predictable home where he can adjust at his own pace. His lack of confidence may take time to overcome, and his fearful behaviors will require patience and understanding during his lifelong adjustment process.Tuck would thrive in a quiet home with only adults, where he can be gently introduced to new people and experiences. He’s lived with other dogs before but needs slow introductions to any new canine friends. With kindness, patience, and a calm environment, Tuck has the potential to blossom into a loving and loyal companion. He’s a sweet boy with so much heart, just waiting for the right person to give him the space and time he needs. If you’re ready to help Tuck become the confident, happy dog he deserves to be, come meet him today. This gentle soul is worth the wait, and with your love, he can truly thrive.-----Adoption Fees & Benefits:Under 1 year: $2001-4 years: $1005-9 years: $5510+ years: $35Fees include: Heartworm test (age appropriate), vaccinations, flea/tick preventative, complimentary bag of food, wellness exam, and rabies vaccine.A `meet and greet` with any existing dogs in your home is required, supervised by our team in our play areas.

Story
*Marley`s adoption fee is sponsored and comes with a customized training package from Paws & Play Dog Resort & Training Center!*Marley`s Compatibility:Dogs - Meet & GreetCats - NoKids - Yes, 14+Marley, a sweet senior boy, has been cherished his entire life. His family loved him dearly, but due to unfortunate circumstances, they were displaced and had to make the heartbreaking decision to bring him to the shelter. Now, Marley is hoping to find a new home where he can feel safe and loved again.Marley may be 9 years old, but he’s still got plenty of pep in his step! He lives for long walks and can go for several miles without missing a beat. Afterward, he’s all about soaking up some sunshine, enjoying belly rubs, and settling in for a leisurely nap in his comfy bed.Since moving into foster care, Marley’s goofy side has started to shine! He’s a certified cuddle pro who will patiently sit at your feet for pets, a big fan of toys (especially the squeaky kind), and a stylish gentleman who rocks a bow tie like no other. He’s also highly food-motivated—offer him a little deli meat, and he’ll be your best friend.Marley is housebroken, crate-trained (though he’s not thrilled about going in at first), and incredibly smart. He knows sit, come, down, paw, and stay. While he’s easygoing in many ways, he has some opinions—he’ll let you know what he thinks about other dogs on walks with a good bark, and he’s not a fan of people running too close to him.Marley wouldn’t mind being your one and only, but he’s also open to meeting other dogs to see if they’re a good fit. He’d thrive in a calm home with kids 14 and up and would love nothing more than a family who will shower him with love, long walks, and a steady supply of squeaky toys.Ready to bring this lovable, bow-tie-wearing gentleman home? Marley is waiting to meet you!-----Adoption Fees & Benefits:Under 1 year: $2001-4 years: $1005-9 years: $5510+ years: $35Fees include: Heartworm test, vaccinations, flea/tick preventative, complimentary bag of food, wellness exam, and rabies vaccine.Important Notice: A `meet and greet` with any existing dogs in your home is required, supervised by our team in our play areas.

Story
Nado`s Compatibility:Dogs - Meet & GreetCats - UnknownKids - No little ones, please—he’s looking for a home with an 18+ guest listMeet Nado! This young, high-energy pup is smart, eager to learn, and ready to take on the world with his future family. He recently completed a two-week stay & train at Paws and Play, where he worked on his leash skills, learned how to trade toys politely, and mastered some basic obedience. And here’s the best part—his adopters will receive a free exit lesson with his trainer to keep the progress going!No one ever showed Nado the ropes when he was younger, so he’s still learning how to navigate the world. It’s not his fault he needs some extra guidance—he’s just making up for lost time! He can be a bit rambunctious when he’s excited, so he’s looking for an adult-only home that can keep up with his training. With structure, consistency, and positive reinforcement, he’ll be an incredible companion.While he’s a little too enthusiastic about other dogs right now, he’s working on his leash manners and focus. He’ll thrive with adopters who understand his needs and are committed to setting him up for success. HSHC recommends continued training, and we can even provide resources to help!Looking for an athletic, fun-loving, and wicked smart dog to train, adventure with, and be your loyal sidekick? Nado is ready and waiting! -----Adoption Fees & Benefits:Under 1 year: $2001-4 years: $1005-9 years: $5510+ years: $35Fees include: Heartworm test (age appropriate), vaccinations, flea/tick preventative, complimentary bag of food, wellness exam, and rabies vaccine.Important Notice: A `meet and greet` with any existing dogs in your home is required, supervised by our team in our play areas.
