Best dog here at BARC Animal Shelter & Adoptions today. (My opinion!)
Fancy (A1945214)
Sweet, submissive, gentle, spayed!, cute little (cleft?) nose… maybe wounded, maybe birth defect, but adorable!
She definitely wants to be “close” to you.
Pics from today & last Sat. - she should not still be here! Somebody, come adopt a great girl!!

LOST RESCUE DOG- PLEASE SHARE!
We rescued this sweet boy, but he just got away from his foster 💔 We are desperate to get back this poor boy! Please reach out with any sightings or info.
Male, Labrador mix, 3 years old, 46lbs
Last spotted on 14th & Dian Street, Houston TX
77008, HEADING WEST
*Wearing BARC Collar*

DO NOT CHASE! We have trappers on standby to safely get him back once he is located, but scared dogs will run into the street if chased and that never ends well. Please, if spotted, contact us immediately and follow from a safe distance, do not chase him or it puts his life more at risk!

Dasher & Samuel are both good dogs! Dasher is friendly, gentle & flexible! (LOL) Samuel is more reserved & cautious, but not worrisome in the least!
The estimate of $350K damage is ludicrous & surely inflated for insurance purposes! ( my opinion!!) - there were stray cats around the dealership (apparently being fed!) so… the dogs were doing dog things in the dark of night!

I can’t imagine employees or customers were truly “frightened” or in danger, since the footage is all at night! ( except when BARC was picking up the traps!)

These boys are celebrities! They behaved wonderfully for me today - give them a chance to prove themselves… please !?

(Pictures in comments - can’t seem to add them here, with the video link!? Hmmm)

A Houston-area car dealership is eager for a fresh start in 2024 after two stray dogs caused more than $350,000 worth of damage to its inventory and scared away potential customers. CNN affiliate KTRK has more.
