We sent Buddy some pajamas to keep his little body warm... not sure he's a fan🦆....but he was a good sport about it none the less!

Look at handsome Brutus! 😍

His mom says he's doing so good and he and his sister Lucy love each other and are enjoying each other's company! They take regular walks at the park together and even share the bed with their humans!

Brutus has been taking his antibiotics for his heartworms like a good boy and is on a good routine and guess what.... no more marking!

What a good boy Brutus! We love you! 🫶

He's still there and available for adoption at Farmers Branch Animal Adoption Center

SADIE is still looking for a family!

We rescued her last year from a real 💩 situation in September of 2023.

She is about 7 years old and weighs about 48lbs. She has a beautiful, flat, medium, black coat that's super soft to cuddle and it shimmers in the sunlight!

Her appearance and personality make us think she may be mixed with some Border Collie x Cattle Dog and maybe some Flat Coat Retriever but really, she's she's just a Beautiful, bouncy, Duckaroo Snuggle Machine.

She's pretty neutral with her dog friends and loves to play! She does well with smaller dogs after the excitement wears off and she realizes they're a friend and not a hearding toy! (She LOVED taking turns playing chase with Simon)

She's great with and LOVES kids. She has a little "springy hop" at times when excited and may accidentally cause a little human to tumble so older children who are steady on their feet may be best. 🦘

She is totally fine with cats once they accept her and the newness wears off, but you have to be willing to work with her and your cat quite a bit in the beginning for them to peacefully coexist otherwise she will try to "herd" them.

Crates are not her strong suit.
Its understandable thought that she doesn't want to be in a cage after the life she lived in one prior.

She HATES the sound of Thunder so storm season is super fun 🫣 but all you have to do is reassure her and snuggle up with her and she's totally fine.

She does not require a whole lot of activity but she is a slippery one who we could see being able to jump a 4ft or chain link fence if she really wanted to! A minimum 6ft, solid fence is a must!

Sadie does walk great on a leash though and loves going for rides! 🚗 She loves splashing in water and is solid on potty training!

Her strongest quality is her huge heart and eagerness to learn and make you happy! She will give you everything if you just give her love.

Despite the lack of attention and affection Sadie got for the 5 years she was outside alone in a filthy dog run... she has alot of love to give and is a GREAT COMPANION!

If Sadie sounds like the perfect addition to your family, please submit an application and meet this sweetheart! If she sounds like the perfect pup for someone you know, please tag them or send them this post. She truly deserves an amazing home!

UPDATE Toasty will be going to reunite with her mom, alumni Momma Mia ❤️ Forever Home here she comes.

ADOPTION RETURN
**NOW AVAILABLE**

Through no fault of her own, tiny Toast has been returned and is once again on the search for a Forever Family!

She is a teeny 5.5lb girl who is almost 2.5yo.
She was originally born in our rescue. To get an idea of her size, she is smaller than most adult cats.

Toast had an adorable personality and loves to cuddle.

She is dog/cat & kid friendly.
We prefer her go to a home with dogs similar in size as bigger dogs make her nervous.

Because of her fragile size, a home with older children would also be more suitable for her.

She does great in her crate at night and while you're away at work. She is potty trained. She had a tiny little bladder though so a litter box or p*e pad for backup is recommended. She's happy to use either when you're unable to take her out.

Shout out to our PAWesome friends at Eagle Stadium Dog Grooming for the fresh new groom and nail trim!

She is Spayed and Microchipped, just caught up on her yearly shots and had a negative heartworm test! She is current on prevention.

✍️ APPLY BELOW: https://petlover.petstablished.com/pets/share/1497592

**Please Research Breed** before applying to adopt. Toast will need regular Grooming. This breed needs to be walked on a harness rather than a collar to prevent collapsed trachea. Her size also makes her very vulnerable to predators, including large birds therefore she should never be outside unattended for any amount of time.

Goodnight from Buddy ⭐️ 🌙 🫶

FOREVER FRIEND HARLEIGH says THANK YOU all so much who sent her gifts!

Today we took her and her momma to the Pet store for a bath then got a burger and went back to the house for a good brush, nail cut and helped unpack and set up all her goodies! Harleigh loves all her gifts!

Thank you all so much for brightening this girl, her momma, and our week! 💕

When humans understand what decompression is, and allow slow, natural introductions rather than trying to force dogs to interact, it can make a world of difference! 🥰

Brutus is doing so well. Yes, he marks, but his mom and dad are working with him rather than bringing him back. It takes time. Time is the best thing you give a newly rescued dog.

We're mailing out Brutus' meds today for heartworm treatment so this boy can have a healthy life, in addition to his happy life!

Thank you all so much to all who shared him and even went to the shelter to meet him. My heart, mind and body was nonstop ache and in panic mode trying to find him a place to land so he could live and he found his way to the people who needed him as much as he did them because of the village that banded together for him! 🙌🫶

How does such a beautiful girl sit so long in a shelter til she becomes urgent?

Because no one ever worked with her behavior or taught her basic manners and over time in the shelter, her behaviors became worse and worse until she was practically invisible. 😓

Zelda is a sweet girl, but she's going to take a lot of time and patience.

We took her to the park today and the first hour was spent just burning some of her energy so she could somewhat focus. She's did better the more we worked but she's like the energy bunny! 🤣

She's a big girl. She jumps. She's super mouthy. She has no idea of her size. She knows no boundaries. Personal space does not exsist. She's easily distracted and overstimulated and talking to her is like talking to a brick wall.

None of this is her fault she's just has never been shown better. To her, any attention is good attention, so correcting her just gets her more excited. 🥴

BUT the want to please is there! The want to do right is there and the eagerness to learn is in her!

Thankfully she has a dedicated team behind her, including her wonderful foster family and she starts her first (likely of several) session with REAL Animal Sanctuary and Behavioral Solutions this Friday.

If you agree that she has the absolute most beautiful face and would like to help get her on the right path, please consider a small donation for her training. 🫶 Zelda is one of four dogs we took in just last week and any help is appreciated! 🙏

RESCUED 🚨 𝗨𝗥𝗚𝗘𝗡𝗧: 𝗔𝗧 𝗥𝗜𝗦𝗞 𝗙𝗜𝗡𝗔𝗟 𝗘𝗫𝗧𝗘𝗡𝗦𝗜𝗢𝗡 𝗶𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗙𝗿𝗶𝗱𝗮𝘆, 𝗡𝗼𝘃 𝟴 @ 𝟱𝗽𝗺 ‼️AVAILABLE TO ADOPT, RESCUE or FOSTER - If he's not out, he will be EUTHANI,ED BRUCE (m) 1y 9m https://24Petconnect.com/DetailsMain/PP4565/55283885 I went and saw handsome BRUCE this morning. He look sooooo cute in his "suit and tie!" I cannot say enough how great a boy is! Bruce is WORTH THE SAVE. He is ADORABLE. 😍 Bruce has been in the shelter several months so he has some pent up energy that will likely lessen some with time to decompress. He is very eager for acceptance. Bruce is highly treat and toy motivated and very willing to learn. He takes treats gently and is a total sweetheart! He loves his toys and belly rubs!! I could see Bruce being a great "go partner"! Want to go for a run? Bruce is there. Want to go for a ride? Bruce is your guy! Want to sit on the couch and chill? If you're rubbing his belly, he's there!!! Shelter staff says Bruce does well with dogs who have matched energy. Very playful, similar size, passive etc No known history with cats. Just going off brief interaction, I do think Bruce would likely do best with older or experienced kids as he has a heavy bottom that gets going when he gets super wound up and excited. If you are interested in adopting or rescuing Bruce, please use the address and contact information below. 🕑 SHELTER OPENS AT 10am MONDAY MORNING!
