Story
Are you in search of a one-of-a-kind serial kisser? Well, look no further, because I, Mandy, am the dog you've been waiting for! I come with a mix of awesomeness and a charming personality that's sure to steal your heart. I can be delightfully laid-back, enjoying those calm moments, or I can transform into a bouncing ball of joy when the mood strikes. Walks and jogs? Count me in, especially if you're by my side. But here's the thing-I love playing with other dogs so much that I often choose their company over toys. Let's talk sunbathing. If your couch has that perfect spot for catching rays, you can bet I'll be there, soaking it all in. I'm a big fan of lounging, whether it's under tables, during dinner time, while you're working at your desk, or even when you're cuddled up in bed. I'm all about being close to my people, and if you choose to adopt me, I'll be all about you! I'm a sociable girl, getting along well with other dogs and kids (especially with submissive/non-dominant dogs). My crate training and potty training with a doggy door are top-notch. I'm a pro at commands like going to my crate and sitting patiently. Now, about my diet-here's the deal: I have EPI (Exocrine Pancreatic Insufficiency), which means my pancreas doesn't produce the enzymes I need to digest food properly. Thanks to some attentive rescuers and veterinary care, we've got it all figured out. I'll need a specific diet and a pancreatic enzyme replacement supplement to keep me feeling great. Think of it as a special appetizer and entree at every meal. EPI won't slow me down, and I'm ready to trade serial kisses for a loving forever home day in and day out. So, how about it? Local adoption fee is $200 (in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $400 (includes transport to your area - $50 Temporary Fuel Charge will be added)

Story
Mac is a sweet boy who knows what he wants! He does love to chase and play with animals smaller than him. Due to this we suggest that he does not go home to a family that has cats or things like chickens. Squirrels watch out! This little guy can move! Mac is a ham, you can't see it in his pictures but he LOVES attention :) He is good with other dogs and happy to be a friend or he could be an only dog and BASK in the undivided attention :) He is a lazy boy and does enjoy snoozing and spending time on the couch napping but at the same time can have his moments where he is ready to go. He is housebroken and does just fine in a crate! If he sounds like the boy for you then don't wait!

Story
Meet Phoebe – Your Loyal, Loving, and Fiercely Devoted Companion! Phoebe is about 3 years old, spayed, microchipped, and up-to-date on vaccines and preventions. She’s had a bit of tough luck in the past—not because she’s done anything wrong, but because she hasn’t yet found her perfect match. Much like anyone who's been through a rough breakup, Phoebe just needs someone who truly understands her heart. She’s a classic Cattle Dog—smart, strong-willed, and deeply loyal. She’s "a lot of dog" in the best possible way and thrives with structure, routine, and a person who gets her driven, loving nature. If you’re experienced with the breed, you’ll see what a total gem she is. Phoebe may take a couple of days to settle into new surroundings—she can be a little tense at first. But once she learns the rhythm of her new home, she blossoms into the best girl. In her foster home, she’s been fantastic with kids and has settled beautifully into a busy household. She takes her yard patrol duties seriously and loves a good job to do. When it’s time to relax? Bring on the belly rubs! She melts with affection and adores being loved on. She did lose a few teeth in a previous home, but it hasn’t affected her one bit—she happily munches dry kibble like a pro. Phoebe is ready for someone who truly sees her. If you're a Cattle Dog-savvy human ready for a fiercely loyal companion, this girl is waiting to make your heart her home. Go ahead and submit an adoption application for her now! $200 Local Fee (in Texas) $450 Out of State Fee (includes transport to your area)
