Story
Meet Blossom Bingo! You’re already in love right? Me too, so let me tell you all about her. First off, those ears deserve a moment of their own, they are the cherry on top of the cuteness. You may not ever be able to sneak a snack on account of those ears but you won’t mind given how absolutely cute she is when she tilts her head to the side, perks those ears a little more and flashes her big puppy dog eyes. I hope you can be strong enough to not hand over your whole snack every single time.
Blossom is so fortunate and is being fostered in a dedicated and loving home, living with other dogs and kids ranging from newborns to teens. Hello family girl Being fostered is something we like to highlight because of the amazing head start it offers them. Not only does it give us an intimate view of a dogs personality but they also get a natural environment to learn and master house manners and the rhythm of a busy home. Hello house and crate trained cutie! Blossom's foster has shared so many wonderful stories with us, all which come back to her having a fun personality and offering easy companionship. Given she is a rescue we cannot guarantee age or breed but she sure looks like there is some corgi in there. Blossom is estimated to be right around 2-2.5 years old and weighs 44 lbs.
Aside from her ears the most notable feature of Blossom is her size, she is built like a deluxe model of a corgi, the deluxe is just slightly bigger than the “standard.” My son described her as a corgi who put a shepherds coat on to look fancy, and I couldn’t agree more! Her size and affectionate nature collided into her having strong aspirations for lap-side dog life. That is lap-dog adjacent, love and closeness without the full commitment to being in your lap. She may be just waiting for the right one to go full-lap-dog for so stay tuned. if you are looking available she will happily scooch right in beside you and its really easy to stay put for the cozy, cute love.
Blossom lives happily with other small to similar size dogs in her foster home and during an afternoon together we introduced her to a handful of new dogs to get a feel of her”type” of playmate and her play style. It was clear, Blossom is built out of easy-going energy. She meets new dogs on-leash with confidence and a calm approach. If joining a home with another dog, she would do best with a slightly more mature dog who will be friendly but allow her to take it slow at first. Dogs that come in with a best-friend-now approach are not the most natural fit, she will back up and walk away, but a dog that is happy to meet and enjoy the same space with her, letting friendship grow slow are perfect! She is able to calmly correct if a dogs play is too much, so a dog that comes in quick but settles into a calm companion after the initial meeting would be great as well.
Blossom was introduced to our house cat and her energy and approach showed us all the signs that she is cat-tolerant and could live with a feline friend. She was cautious and curious and because our cat is very dog savvy, he allowed her to smell and follow him without needing to swat or draw a boundary. If she had been swatted it would likely have set her sense of comfort back so she has potential to take a feline friendship very slow and cautious, or nice and easy, depending on the cat. Her foster home does have a yard she enjoys but given her size and calm nature, she could easily be an apartment girlie. Plus, she has great leash skills so potty breaks and walks will be nice for both of you.
If you’re looking for a sweet, easy-going girl, who also happens to be absolutely adorable, you have found her in Blossom!

We facilitate adoptions across the US through our own internal transport to ensure the quality of care. We travel to WA, UT, OR, ID, VA, PA, OH, NY, CT, VT and Canada (Canadian adopters will need to pick up in Bellingham, WA or Brattleboro, VT for the eastern Canadian border)! Our pups travel in comfort with 24/7 care on our USDA licensed vehicles, including buses and cargo vans. You can join along on our private Facebook event page to follow their adventure, connecting you with other adopters and providing updates throughout their transport journey!
You will get to meet your new pup over a video call before signing paperwork, creating a fun and personalized adoption experience!

https://g.co/kgs/UQ5Pyai We care deeply about making the perfect match between dog and family for long term success.
Our rescue has a 2 acre property in Texas where we assess every animal with trainers on staff, we modify behavior as needed, and create individualized behavior plans to help prepare dogs for their future families including crate training, potty training, leash walking, etc. Our fosters are able to attend group trainings and socialization play groups to keep dogs adoption-ready. Our on-site trainers support the positive growth of our dogs and we enjoy seeing their progress!
Our commitment to comprehensive medical care sets us apart. We've received glowing feedback from veterinarians who commend our dedication to ensuring the health and well-being of every animal in our care with treatments that often go above and beyond.
Our adoption fees reflect the extensive care and resources that go into each animal we save. The adoption fee is a donation to the mission and goes far beyond getting a fully vetted pet.
The rescue’s hard costs alone (excluding transport) for a healthy dog to go through our program typically range between $412 to $859, which includes boarding, food, medications, vaccines, and spay/neuter. For heartworm-positive dogs, hard costs are upwards of $1,368. Additionally, dogs requiring extended boarding, extra training, or extra medical care—such as dental work, vision care, or orthopedic care—can lead to expenses running into the thousands. Also, included in the adoption fee are costs to cover transport up to the Pacific Northwest or East Coast. Transport is a significant additional expense to the rescue.
While adoption fees help cover part of these expenses, we want to emphasize that the rescue does not receive government funding and must fundraise to offset the remaining expense balance which ranges $100-1,000++ per animal on these direct costs.
It doesn’t stop there! Our adopters also receive these SPECIAL PERKS:

Did you know that the Greater Houston area faces some of the highest stray and overpopulation rates in the nation? We are a non profit charity. Our goal is simple— to reduce the homeless pet population through community outreach, free spay and neuter services, and by rescuing animals from the streets or overcrowded shelters where euthanasia due to lack of space is often the only option. The dog you've found online is not only lucky to be in our program, but also incredibly fortunate to have caught your eye. Thank you for considering adoption and for joining us in our mission!
Follow our rescue journey and connect with us on our website and social media platforms. Together, we can make a difference, one adoption at a time.
