Lone Star Dog Ranch & Dog Ranch Rescue

Lone Star Dog Ranch & Dog Ranch Rescue The Lone Star Dog Ranch is a one of a kind cage free boarding facility 30 minutes north of Dallas in Anna, Texas. The rescue's website is dogranchrescue.com

Here dogs are free to play, swim, sleep, and be loved as they wish, all day. There are many things about Lone Star Dog Ranch that make it
unique and better than any other daycare or boarding facility. We are truly one of a kind. We are a completely social facility. The only time your dog will be confined is for meals and sleep. The rest of their time is theirs to enjoy themselves while you are awa

y enjoying yourself. Dogs are free to swim, play with other dogs, lay under a shade tree, sleep on the couch in the air conditioning or go back to bed and be alone if they want. They can choose to go inside the ranch building or outside anytime they want. We are an all inclusive facility. We don’t charge any extra for playtime, extra hugs, one on one time, swimming, laptime, special food, medication or any other special requirement. Everything is included in the boarding and day care rates. All dogs that stay with us must pass our evaluation to ensure that they can get along with everyone. For this reason we also require that all dogs be spayed or neutered

Lone Star Dog Ranch is family owned and operated and all of us live on the property. The dogs are never left unattended. The care here is unmatched anywhere. Dog Ranch Rescue is a completely separate entity from Lone Star Dog Ranch. It began in 2015 and The Village Sanctuary building housing the rescues is on the same 32 acres. All inquiries about rescue dogs is handled by email at [email protected] and the website for the rescue is dogranchrescue.com. Please don’t call Lone Star Dog Ranch for questions about the rescue, you will be sent to the email address above to correspond with any questions about Dog Ranch Rescue.

This is going to be a long post so bear with me. Queso came to us with a group of about 6 other orange tabby cats. All feral, all came from a hoarding house. Queso has always been very sensitive and very low with the colony of cats. It did not take long before she was bullied out of Meow Town. We discovered her staying far away on the property and trying to get food in the dumpster. We just could not have that so Travis trapped her and she came to live at my house with Nubbers. She is a precious little cat, a little shy but wants to love her people cautiously.

Tragedy ensued at my house with Nubbers and I could not, and would not, risk Queso being in the downstairs part of my house any longer. She moved upstairs to Evas big room with her two cats Stevie and Mulch. At first it seemed to go well, and then slowly it didn't. Mulch is a very dominant cat and is bullying her and will not let her come out from under the sofa, he has now started marking in Eva's room and chaos has blown into full force. Yesterday he bit her on her ear and made her bleed and we have to surrender to this issue and get Queso out of there.

This poor little cat is like the cat that can never find peace, find love without danger or bullying coming at her. It's just awful, I feel terrible for her.

Eva has gathered her up for now and moved her to the sanctuary, I am sure the brother cats will probably bully her too. We have to find a home for her, she deserves a great home where she is loved and feels safe. We have tried the best that we can but we cannot provide that for her.

She is lovely with other cats, Nubbers and her were the best of friends and snuggled together always.

So this is a first for Dog Ranch Rescue, we have placed donkeys before and lots of dogs but finding a home for a cat is new to us. The process to adopt her will be the same as a dog or a donkey. I will put Queso on the Available dog page and hopefully, hopefully, hopefully we will find her a home she very much needs.

Please share Queso so we can find her the first cat home we have ever searched for with the rescue.

Angora is not in the corner anymore. This is her enjoying movie night with her foster mom Ana on the couch. Does that mean shes not skittish and worried? absolutely not. Angora has suffered far too much trauma to ever feel safe 100% and like a normal dog. She will advance as far as she is able to advance and will need a family who will love her in spite of it. Dogs like her will do and be the best they can but will need acceptance patience and understanding.

We have three German Shepherds right now two of them are very social and friendly with all dogs, and humans and we have yet to find an application for them that will fulfill their needs. We knew the challenge would be significant when we rescued them from a dog auction, and significant it has been.

A very last minute donation arrived today and I have entered it into the auction.

She was one of a kind that I can say for certainty. Highest bidder will enjoy seeing the goody face of Ma’am if you’re the winner of this painting. Thank you to Cody Alvey for providing this inside funds for the rescue.

I’m sure this dog is wreaking havoc at the rainbow bridge and has probably knocked it over by now 😂

Many believed that once Tiny Bubbles settled into the Barnes’ home, she would be there forever. But with their fur daughters growing older and the Barnes themselves feeling the years (Terrie’s words, not mine), they lovingly decided it was time for Tiny Bubbles to find her perfect forever family.

Jennifer Cheng and Justin Kovar first reached out about Mimi, even buying her a bright red collar in anticipation. While we worked through Mimi’s medical concerns, they patiently waited. They had adopted an older girl named Basket from DRR. Basket was dearly loved, but later developed IBD and other health challenges, and she has since passed away. They were still raw from the passing of Basket that they said they couldn't have their heart broken by IBD again, so they had to say no to Mimi.

Knowing Basket was a black-and-white piebald, we asked if they might consider Tiny Bubbles. DRR always holds adopters to high standards, but because this was Tiny Bubbles—and if she couldn’t stay with the Barnes, she deserved the very best—Jennifer and Justin were carefully evaluated. On the very same day Mimi passed, Tiny Bubbles became pending with them. Though they grieved Mimi, Tiny Bubbles arrived just in time to lift their spirits.

When they came to adopt her, they brought that same red collar, and it fit her perfectly—no adjustment needed. They’ve decided to name her Dot, though she already has a whole collection of nicknames: Dottie, La-di Dottie She Likes to Party, and Spotty Dottie Dopalicious. While she's settling in, they’ve promised to keep her foster family (and hopefully Happy Tails) updated on her adventures.

We have no doubt she’ll be cherished and spoiled, even though Jennifer and Justin mentioned they’ve read Renee’s rules for introducing a new dog and plan to follow them. Good luck with that—Dot is so tiny and so full of joy that resisting her charm will be nearly impossible.

Emergency rescue is happening now. We got an email from a small shelter about an hour from the ranch with this pretty girl needing emergency rescue right now. Ricky jumped into action and drove to go get her. I called the ER to alert them to what was coming in. We hope and pray they can get this back inside, this is a really bad one. The ER staff will have their work cut out for them for sure.

I dont know anything about this girl other than what we see in the photos and they are bad, this pretty girl looks like she was bred for the big rope over the nose, which is another one of the fads. UGH... this people...

We need donations for every dog that is brought in, large and small they are all always so very much appreciated. Our small donations add up quickly so never think that 5.00 isn’t enough to help because it is.
