Meet Suds! This lovable, medium-sized pup is on the lookout for his forever home or a rescue tag to help him find the perfect family. Suds is a playful boy who loves spending time outside with his fellow canine companions there’s nothing better than a game of chase or a good romp around the yard for this energetic pup.

He’s a curious little explorer at heart, and if left unsupervised, he might dig to see what lies beneath the surface. But don’t worry, this is just his way of satisfying his natural curiosity! When he’s not digging, Suds is all about treats and will do just about anything for a tasty reward.

Suds is a sweet boy who thrives once he’s gotten to know you. He’s got a big heart and loves people, so if you’re patient and willing to let him warm up, you’ll have a loyal and affectionate companion for life. Ready to meet Suds and make his dreams of a forever home come true? He’s ready for you!

We would like to extend our heartfelt gratitude to all the incredible animal rescues and the dedicated fosters who have worked alongside them to support our shelter this year in saving the lives of 161 animals. Your unwavering dedication, tireless networking, and the countless hours of work filled with tears, sweat, and immense love have been nothing short of inspiring. The selflessness of the fosters opening their hearts and homes to these animals has made all the difference. Without your commitment and compassion, none of this would have been possible. We are deeply thankful for your partnership, and we know that together, we’ve made a real impact in the lives of these animals. From the bottom of our hearts here at Portland Texas Animal Care Services , thank you for everything you do. Here are just a few Rescues we like to Thank, sorry if we missed anyone. Thank You @lappdogrescue @kaninesandkitties @gulfcoasthumanesocietycc Fallen Horse Rescue, Casa Verde Cats, Dalmatian Rescue of Colorado, Texas Cat Coalition, Inc, Hoover's Hause All Dog Rescue, Amos Rehabilitation Keep - Ark at UT Marine Science Institute, Pee Wee's Pet Adoption World and Sanctuary, Casa Verde Cats, Capra Vida Animal Rescue, and Edgar and Ivy's Cat Sanctuary

Apologies for the late update! The friendly adoption competition between the Police Department and the Fire Department has a winner. Drum roll, please... The Police Department takes the crown by just one adoption! The Fire Department was hot on their heels with 9 adoptions, but the Police Department edged them out with 10. We did have one return out of the 20 total adoptions, but it's still a big win for all our furry friends. Thank you, City of Portland Police Department and Portland, Texas Fire Department , for your participation! Sorry we could not include all the adoption pictures in the video it passed the limit amount.
