Elvis is a sweet, sweet soul.  He is about 7 years old now but don't let the age or grey fool you.  He has the athleticism of a younger dog still.  He is not overly energetic but can definitely keep up with his younger friends.  Elvis does have a history with separation anxiety.  He loves his people so much that he can have a tendency to act out such as scratching the door excessively or chewing his bed up if he thinks you've been gone too long. Since he has been with us for the past 2 months we have not experienced any issues with the separation anxiety and have left him for 5-6 hours at a time. He has been a total gentleman.  He is house trained and we have been letting him have the run of the house when we are gone and he's been great!  He does well with other dogs, hasn't chewed on anything he's not suppose to and loves to cuddle.  Elvis is a water dog and will go for a swim if close to water.  His perfect home would be a family that wouldn't have to be gone most of the day and give him plenty of outdoor time and exercise whether it is out in the yard playing ball or just laying in the sun, walks or going to the dog park.  He loves his sunshine.  He needs you to understand his separation anxiety if it ever happens to show up again. He wants to be loved just as much as any dog.   Elvis loves people and he loves to please.

Oddie

Hello! Are you looking for a sweet, gentle, boy who loves to snuggle? If so, look no further because I’m your guy. My name is Oddie (pronounced O-dee, not Odd-ee).  There is nothing odd about me!  I love to be around my people and get along well with other dogs after a proper introduction. I like to spend my days hanging out with my foster mom or dad if they work at home. During the evenings, I snuggle with mom while we watch TV. She doesn’t mind if I hog the chair J

From Oddie’s foster mom: Oddie is a gorgeous, 2 year old boy.  From the moment he came into our home, he has been a wonderful addition to our family.  He is very calm, fully house trained, doesn’t chew, and rarely barks. Oddie will go in a crate without complaining, but after a few days he proved that he is trustworthy in the house so he isn’t crated. Oddie has been undergoing heart worm treatment so he’s a bit under the weather and needs to remain calm.  Because of this, we don’t let him play with his foster brother or go on long walks.  Once he’s feeling better, we expect that he will have more energy and we’ll start to see more of his personality. Oddie is very thin and needs to gain weight. He will need someone who will work with him to help him gain weight and take him on walks to build up his muscles. Most importantly, he will need someone who doesn’t mind a large lap dog as he really likes to cuddle.

We don’t know much about Lucky’s story before being rescued, but he is a very happy-go-lucky type of guy. When he first came into our home, he was a little rough around the edges, but with some patience and training, he has become more disciplined . He is always at your side, loves belly rubs and playing in our little plastic baby swimming pool after a walk in the Texas heat. Lucky also loves to play fetch & knows "release", as well as the basic commands such as sit/stay/lay. 

 He's good on a leash and great with kids. However, because he's a big boy at 76 pounds, he has the potential to knock over small kids and would do best in a home with older kids. He does great with our 11-year-old lab, but he sometimes forgets that mom & dad have to give equal love to both dogs. Finally, he doesn't like cats and has a little storm anxiety. But when he wears his Thundervest, he’s content to sleep by our bed and not in it. Don't let any of this turn you away from a great guy. He is 100% trustworthy in the house while we are gone and just a big lovable, goofy guy.

Meet Duke, about  5-6 years old, 118 pound lab-mix, with a heart of love as big as his strength. He was rescued from a kill shelter, in need of medical attention and lots of love. Since his “Gotcha Day” he has lived the easy life indoors, gotten his needed medicine and treatments, found his favorite spot on the couch to hang out, loves treats, ear scratches, belly rubs, hugs, giving kisses, peanut butter and TENNIS BALLS!! He’s housetrained, sleeps on a soft bed next to Foster Mom, doesn’t roam at night, doesn’t beg for food when the family eats, and no food aggression with people. He likes nice children that will give him gentle hugs, ear rubs, and throw a ball. 

Duke was found to have arthritis in his back knees but having an anti-inflammatory pill per day and a glucosamine supplement, he moves, runs and plays where it’s not noticeable. Duke tested positive and completed treatment for heartworms, and continues on a monthly preventative to stay healthy. Any medicine is super easy to give as Duke will sit and drool for medicine wrapped in peanut butter. 

As with us all, being imperfectly perfect, Dukes imperfections are: lack of leash training, counter surfing for food only when left alone (loves bread of course), scared of kennels (not sure why). He is trainable and has gotten better on the leash since his rescue, but needs a new home that can handle his size and work with him more… he’s very strong.  Keeping counters cleared of food products deters the counter surfing and being scared of a kennel hasn’t been a problem because he hasn’t needed one. Duke likes to be the top dog but will coexist with a passive buddy. Reaction to cats is unknown. He is good with small children but remember he is a large dog, when excited or playing he could accidently knock them down. He needs training with positive encouragement and treats. If he’s fussed at he will belly roll in submission.    

Duke is a sweet boy who needs a sweet home that will let him live indoors, love him and spoil him, let him find his favorite spot to be a couch potato, and can work with him on his leash.

Annabelle is a beautiful, white-faced old lady that is absolutely precious!  She has a few challenges with mobility when she first gets up but I have her on Glucosamine and Chondroitin to assist in her latter years.  She needs help with direction from time to time and needs plenty of room outside to do her business.  She plays rocky horse at meal-time and has the cutest smile of joy when she gets to jump in someone’s lap for a good ear rub and loving!  I suspect she has had a boy in her history.  She is a lumpy gal but they are harmless fatty tissue and don’t bother her.  She loves to please you and does so willingly.  I have taught her to sit and stay so she doesn’t rush her food bowl at mealtime.  She loves a good snuggle on the sofa but is good if she is not invited up.  She is happy to be with her person and loves chest rubs most of all.

COMING SOON

Woody is a people dog! He has high energy yet loves to give you kisses. He is ready to be the only dog in a family but he doesn’t mind sharing it with kitties or kiddos. In fact, if that child can throw a ball, they will be his favorite person. Woody is happy to sit beside you and get pets, too. If he wants to go outside, he will sit at the door to let you know…of course, it might just mean he wants a biscuit when he comes back in but hey, it works ;)

Going bye bye is this little man’s middle name, he loves to go with YOU anywhere! You being the keyword here! This is one sweet, loyal dog who is playful. He will dismantle soft squishy toys but he is worth retiring a few here and there. He is great at catching or chasing a ball and will bring it right back to you, drop it at your feet and sit there until you throw it again. If he gets more toys than he can handle, he stores them in his kennel for safekeeping ;) That is great because he is picking up after himself. You would never know he is 10 yrs old to meet him!

Here is an update on Zeb!  Zeb had FHO hip surgery in early August and is doing GREAT!  He has a good prognosis, and while he will never be your running partner, he is going to make a great, active companion to a  lucky family!  

9/13-  Hey everyone, just wanted to share my great news.  The vets have told me I’m no longer on any type of restrictions.  They said I was doing so good that all we need to do is continue building my muscle strength.  So I’m free to run, play, jump and do all the things a puppy my age should be doing.  I still have a few more weeks of physical therapy left but should be available by the mid OCt.  It will take a few more months for all my strength to come back so daily walks and playing is a must. 

Now to give you some more information about me.  I’m the happiest sweetest boy, I love being right by your side and am ready to do anything you want.  I’m great traveling in the car and walk pretty good on the leash.  My Foster Mom says I’m a social butterfly. I love everyone and and haven’t met a dog I didnt like.  I’ve gotten really good with my house manners, I no longer jump, I wait patiently for my food, I only chew on my toys (well except shoes and socks….just love those).  I’m house trained  and even get along with my foster kitty.  I sleep on a pillow by the bed at night, but if you let me,  I would also sleep in your bed with you. 

I do have some crate anxiety and don’t like staying in it when you leave.  My Foster Mom has been doing some test and leaving up to 2 hours to see how I do with without being crated …so far I have been great, haven’t touch anything I’m not suppose to.  I have a foster doggy brother and I think he keeps me calm when my foster Mom is away.

I LOVE cuddling and giving lots of kisses.  I’m learning all the basic commands and doing really well.  I love to please.  I have typical energy for a puppy my age.  As long as I get some exercise, I’m pretty calm in the house and happy just playing w/my toys or taking a nap.  I think I would do best with a family that someone is home more since I do have a little separation anxiety.  Having another dog to help me through this would be great too but if your home a lot without a dog, I think I would be fine.   I can’t wait to find my forever family and start my new journey with you.   So get me on your want list so you don’t miss out having a chance to take me home.

Hello!  Mr Milton is about ready to become available for adoption.

COMING SOON

Hello, let me introduce myself. I am Sage and I am an adorable one year old female lab. I know you probably are looking at my pictures and thinking, what in the world is wrong with her eye? Well it is called “Cherry eye” and this happened when I was a puppy. I had an injury and my old family did not get it fixed. My new family (DFW Lab Rescue) is sending me off for a minor tuck this week and (paws crossed) I will be good as new. Actually I will be even better because I am pretty much out of that pesky puppy stage.

OK… enough about my eye let me tell you the important stuff. I live with my foster family in a house with two other labs and a cat. I like them all. I really love floating around the pool on a tube and I am pretty sure that I can swim. I have had one accident in the house, I sleep on a dog bed in my foster parent’s bedroom but I crate if they leave the house. I am pretty calm for a young girl, but I’ll still play if you want me to. I love to snuggle on the couch and on the bed (before I get kicked off for the night.. darn!) I just want to be wherever you are. My foster mom puts stuff in my eye every day and she is amazed that I just sit there and don’t move. She says I am the sweetest girl ever. My foster dad calls me “baby cakes’. I think that must be a good thing because he smiles when he says it. Anyway… soon I will be looking for my forever home. I am told I am good with kids. I am good with other dogs and cats and I would probably be good as the only dog too. Keep watching for new pictures of me after I get my little nip and tuck, and don’t forget to add me to your list. Hopefully we can meet and fall in love!
