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: World, meet Pudgey! 

There is just something about this little guy that will bring a smile to your face. He doesn't really walk so much as wiggles his way around where he needs to go, and a tail wag usually involves his whole bum. He absolutely loves to give kisses, even on the first date ;)  He is about 23 pounds at 4 months old so we expect that he will still have some growing to do. Pudgey has several of dog friends at home that he enjoys playing with, including another puppy about his age and a couple of adult dogs who are larger than he is. He is doing really well with potty training and sleeps quietly in his crate overnight. 

The family that gets to adopt Pudgey will be pretty darn lucky! If you're interested in meeting Pudgey, submit your adoption app today! 

Adoption Fee: $760 + 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!
