April (the bigger one!) is a fantastic apartment dog! As you can see, she's calm and quiet, even when there are others around who are not! 😆 She's friendly with everyone she meets, LOVES to play with other dogs of any size, and is generally a very easy-going, well behaved and affectionate companion. Crazy for splash pools but not baths! Haha go figure!
She's great at relaxing at home but is a big fan of going on walks, and would be thrilled to join a playful, active household.
Kenji is a sweet, intelligent dog who would love to be your new best friend! This charming boy likes to spend time with his people, and he loves going for walks and learning new things. Kenji has a lot of energy, and would do well with an active family who would love to have a buddy for their adventures! Kenji requires someone who will be patient with him as he adjusts to his new home and family. He needs a bit of time and space to warm up to new people, but when he does he’ll be your best friend.
Kenji has some fear based reactivity challenges that he is working through. He is muzzle trained and fully comfortable wearing a muzzle while out for walks and in public spaces. He is making great progress with his training and his comfort level around unfamiliar people and new experiences, but requires someone who will maintain that structure with him.
Kenji would do best in a home without children or any other pets. Kenji does prefer women over men, but with time and slow introductions he does warm up to men. Kenji needs someone who will continue his training so that he can work through his anxiety around new people. He is a very smart boy who loves learning new tricks and practicing them with his people, he would love to be your new adventure buddy!

Good Boy Flurry has found a wonderful foster home, and he's SO HAPPY! Long-time fosters Brenden and Alyssa were looking after Sam, who was just adopted! 😃So without any other dogs at home, they're now able to welcome Flurry. It's a huge relief, knowing this big softie's got loving laps to lay his head in every night, but he's still looking for his forever family!
This guy is so friendly that he demands tummy rubs from everyone who comes to visit. He was wild about being part of a family with playful kids, and was extremely gentle with them. He has shown that he may have a protective streak in him that an adopter may need to work on correcting. He doesn't love other dogs; if he just sees one here and there it's no big deal, but he gets pretty stressed in areas with high volumes of dog traffic. He's a big strong boy and definitely loves his walks, but he generally doesn't have super high energy needs. Mostly he just wants to be with people, playing or snuggling.

Update: April's foster decided to stick it out, and the 2 dogs are buddies now!
April had a fabulous little vacation from boarding when she was given a spot in a foster home. Sadly her 13 year old, 7 pound foster dog sister is super feisty and had very strong opinions about sharing her mama with April, so now April has to go back to the kennel. 😞 She's a wonderful young dog who's dying to play, but isn't hyper and manages herself well in an apartment setting. She's eager to go on adventures, make new friends and bond deeply with her very own person...she's just so ready to be adopted! Please don't let this bright and affectionate dog fall through the cracks...if you have a friendly, playful dog in your home, consider making room for April to join your household. We guarantee she'll brighten everyone's days with her effervescent spirit!

Suzanne was picked up as a stray and sat in the shelter for 3 weeks before she was put on the list to be killed. Even with those stunning blue eyes, she was invisible to potential adopters. Luckily we spotted her and got her out just in the nick of time! And shortly after that, her future mama reached out from her home in Maine to ask how she could help save the life of a Texas shelter dog, and the rest, as they say, is history. 🥰 This absolutely stunning young dog is as beautiful on the inside as she is on the outside, and brings much joy to her human and dog companions every day. Her name is Annika now, which we think suits her much better than "Suzanne!"
