History: 🧡 From Texas to Midwest 🤠—- A group of deserving dogs was recently welcomed as part of our Texas Transport Program! A program launched to make an impactful difference for our partner shelters in Texas facing the overpopulation of animals with limited resources and low adoption rates. We are excited to help these southern gems find loving forever homes to call their own!
A Note from the Foster: Linus is a Lab/Pyrenees mix as sweet as they come! While his foster family was immediately smitten with this handsome boy’s photo, his personality is the cherry on top. He loves to snuggle and isn’t shy about asking for affection, but when it’s time to play, his goofy personality is endlessly entertaining! Some other fun facts about Linus:
✅ Crate trained
✅ Sleeps through the night
✅ Dog savvy
✅ Food motivated
✅ Walks well on leash
✅ Knows some basic commands
✅ People-friendly
Linus is still a little hesitant to jump in the car on his own, but we know he will figure this out with more practice. When he first arrived at his foster home, he was a little freaked out by the booming sounds from the television speakers, but he is getting used to this as well. While his foster home does not have cats or children, his sweet disposition would likely be a good match for either. Overall, Linus is an easy guy to have around and will make a fun addition to a very lucky family.
Adoption Fee: $560 + tax
Adoption Status: Is this dog available? Submitting an application is the best first step to learning if a dog is still available. There is a chance this dog could have a pending adoption when your application is submitted, however our team will offer approved applicants to be put on a waiting list for that dog. Additionally, we can make recommendations on other dogs that may be a match. Pending adoptions do not mean the adoption is finalized. Why did we implement this change? We implemented this update because, unfortunately, dogs were pending for applicants for several weeks and then the applicant would change their mind. This happens more often with puppies, as applications are submitted impulsivly more often for them. Our process is great because it takes a little time, so impulsive decisions fade. However it was unfortunate for the dogs, and the foster homes, as then the process needed to be re-started. By securing a wait-list we are able to move forward more quickly if a pending adoption falls through. This is a new process for us, so your feedback along the way is helpful! Thank you for supporting rescue and adoption!
