Story
We have had Dahlia since she was a puppy (3 years). A family member had a litter from an Aussie and a Border Collie. We sent her to 8 weeks of boarding school when she was young. She was trained to wait on her bed until invited to get down. She will wait at doorways and heel if she knows she is supposed to be following commands. Her favorite thing by far is to chase a ball we throw with a Chuck-it. She has too much energy for us, though. It seems impossible to tire her out. She needs a lot of attention, and barks a lot if the kids are playing without her. She needs an enclosed area, as she has run out onto the road to chase cyclists. She has never attacked or bitten anyone, but she will bark at anyone she does not recognize right away.

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.

Story
Abbey came to us in February of 2023 and has been the sweetest dog. She is crate trained from a puppy and she loves to chew on bones. She is high energy and needs more attention than we are able to give while trying to raise three young children. She needs room to run and would be a great farm dog. She is potty trained and has no known allergies. She is great with other dogs and she has been sad since we had to put down our older dog of 14 years old. We absolutely love her and want her to have the best home. It saddens us to do this but we have her best interest at heart to find her a great home.

Story
Miley Cyrus lived as a mother dog who was used for breeding. She was roaming the streets when she asked the right people for help. Eager to please, Miley has completed dog training at the head of her class. As a result of her past experiences, she is mistrusting of men and loud noises. She is not aggressive, but rather simply prefers to be alone. If you are kind and gentle, and have the patience to earn her trust, Miley Cyrus might be your girl.

Story
Blu's original family of six had him since he was a puppy. The wife asked for online help when she learned she had ovarian cancer. When she explained to us the trouble she was in and the life Blu deserves, we stepped up to help out this family. From our own time, we learned Blu is about 2 years old with a lot of fun contagious energy. He loves to play with you at home, but when he's outside, he loves to run with his own making so many dog friends! I was so surprised how much he got along with everyone! Dogs to dog lovers! He did well with our elder dog who is about 8lbs to our child who is about 20lb. He loves kids, and allowed my child to be all over him. He loves a routine, and when established, he is extremely obedient. Sometimes we don't have to tell him to go inside his crate because he just knows what time it is! He knows basic commands, but we need big hearts with big space for this guy. He needs to run and be in a space his size!

Story
Phoebe came to us at 6 years old after being used in a breeding program her whole life- she had three litters that we know about. The breeder let us know she was shy and took awhile to warm up to you- but once she did she was bonded and happy. This was true- but her anxiety and nervousness around young children was not communicated to us. She is so sweet and just wants to be pet and snuggled- but preferably by a kind and loving adult household. She loves to play fetch, go for long walks, and just wants to follow you everywhere.
