BABY

 

Baby is the name he had when he came to this place.   Seems his owner dropped him off here, but not because of anything Baby ever did.  You know human-stuff is the worst enemy for dogs... the first little blip in the road, and the pets are often the first thing overboard.  SO Foolish, as the family pet is the ONE entity that would stick by you through thick and thin, and offer so much comfort through the hard times.   Nevertheless, Baby is another statistic who sits in Kennel 43, quite certain his family is coming back.   This precious dog appears to us to be a Collie/Australian Shepherd mix.  He is about 4 years old and neutered.  He needs a family who will stick by HIM, no matter what other circumstances life brings about!   He would never forsake his family, and he's looking for one with the same commitment.  Please adopt this beautiful, very sweet & gentle dog today.  He's good on leash, and even better on giving affection!   There's not a sweeter dog in the shelter!!  

Available from Pasadena Animal Rescue. Call 281-991-0602 if interested. ID#A033083

 

BARNEY

 

Barney is listed as a Beagle mix in Kennel #06.   He's a handsome, tri-colored, well-behaved young fellow who is very good on leash.  He's the perfect size for playing fetch in the yard or playing dead on the couch with you while watching TV!  =)   Barney was found lost on the streets, but because of his friendly, affectionate demeanor we know he had a family somewhere along the line.  Please give him the gift of life and of a happy home again!  He's adorable!!  Available from Pasadena Animal Rescue. Call 281-991-0602 if interested. ID#A077983

 

BEN

 

Ben is the largest of the litter, and quite possibly, the gentlest, too! Gentle Ben!  =)   Of the three pups, he most favors his Basset Mom with his short muscular legs and elongated body!  He's a strong boy, but still the 'fraidy cat' of the bunch!  He's slow moving, very affectionate, and not very adventurous.. just a big ole cuddle bug who will wrestle with his litter-mates and run after the cat, but he's just as happy to simply enjoy his chew toy in peace!  Is Ben your kind of dog??  He's not yet ready to go home with you, but you can send in an application for when he is!

 BONNIE & CLYDE

 

Bonnie and Clyde are thought to be siblings.  They were dumped together near a business that had kind people who began to feed the pair, and even had the female spayed!!  But, then the law swooped in and hauled them away as 'stray dogs.'   The business owner spoke with his friend about getting the pair off of death row, and that's just what they did!   So, now, Bonnie and Clyde are in a half-way house and receiving instruction and guidance about how to start their lives over and become productive members of society!   The vet thinks they are approximately 9 months old, and there are varying opinions about what their heritage is...maybe Rottweiler mixes or maybe Doberman mixes... but, does it really matter??   These are young, beautiful, and loving dogs who have been given a chance at life, period!  They are good with other dogs, and even the cat - although the cat is an important part of that peace - he's just not impressed with dogs at all, and that takes all the fun out of it for the dog!  =)   These two are being leash-trained, house-trained and are doing pretty well on both projects!  They have been fully vaccinated, both altered (spayed/neutered) and are receiving regular heartworm prevention.   Bonnie and Clyde would really like to stay together for life, but we all know that may not be how it happens.  It would be wonderful, but if you are interested in just one of them, please apply for that one.   They need to find their forever homes and get settled in for life.  And you don't want to miss a day of that!   
 

 

BOOGIE

 

Boogie is a Chihuahua mix little guy of about 2 years of age. He gets along fine with the other Chi's in the foster home, but he did try to bully them a bit at first.  He's over that now and is learning to play with toys and share his chew sticks.  He's OK with cats if they don't arch, hiss and run...he will give chase if they do that; but, a cat who is accustomed to dogs and doesn't run is just sniffed and left alone.  Boogie sleeps with his foster parents and they say, "he's a Bed Hog!"  He loves to be held and will eat as many baby carrots as you hand out.  The foster Mom said when he first arrived, she thought he was doing a lot of growling, but has come to realize that the sound is just Boogie Talk!  He's very vocal and has a lot to say!  This little guy is full of personality and needs a loving home to call his own.  He's housetrained, fully vaccinated, neutered and was heartworm free when we got him!  He receives regular monthly heartworm prevention.   Boogie is a good boy - don't let your opportunity to share life with him pass you by!  Apply today! Fill out our Adoption Application or E-mail us.  View more pictures by clicking on the Foster Page.

DIXIE'S THREE PUPS

 

These three pups came from a rescued Basset who was injured by a car.   The Basset's name is Dixie and she gave birth to these puppies on November 20th, 2011.  So, these pictures are at about the seven-week mark!  As you can see, the puppies are very healthy and are going to be fairly large adults.  They have been wormed, and the first round of puppy shots have been administered. The Foster Mom is already housetraining them, too!   

They will not be available for adoption until they have completed all their vaccines and have been altered; but, we want the families who will ultimately adopt these puppies to have a look now; and if you are really serious, you may go ahead and apply now for your choice(s) - all the while keeping in mind that it will be probably another 6 weeks or so before they will be eligible for actual adoption.  We will try to keep updated pictures posted for each pup!

 

LIZZY  -  BEN  -  DIXON

In the photos of the three of them together, they are: (left to right)  Lizzy, Ben and Dixon.  Lizzy being the only female.  =)   Ben and Dixon appear almost twins in the photos, but they really are quite different in body structure and in personality.   I tell them apart by looking for Dixon's white-tipped ears!   Even if you aren't interested in adopting, you will enjoy looking at these pictures!

CHARLIE

 

Charlie is a happy-go-lucky, precious little guy who has NO idea that he's at all different. Well, of course, he knows he's Special, but different??? No Way! Despite his amputated front leg, Charlie can do any and everything any other dog can do!  This Darling is thought to be a Rat Terrier mix and he weighs approximately 10 pounds. He's about 10 months old, and has been fully vaccinated, neutered, and kept on regular, monthly heartworm prevention. His leg had been evaluated by at several vets, and the decision NOT to amputate was made after those consultations. However, after one of his flying leaps from on high, he bruised it badly enough that an Orthopedic vet suggested it was probably an ongoing issue, if we didn't amputate the leg now.  So, Charlie has now had surgery and we have a couple of after-surgery pictures so far. Charlie is getting around fine already since he didn't use the leg for support, anyway.   He hardly misses it!  He's beautifully leash trained, and looks forward to his walks! He's housetrained to wee-wee pads, but much prefers to wait and go outside! He's energetic and needs plenty of chew bones and at least one like-sized playmate to run and frolic with to expend some of that energy. Still, as busy as he is, Charlie is as sweet as pie, Loves to cuddle and gives THE sweetest kisses you can imagine. If this special little guy sounds like someone you could fall in love with, please apply to adopt him today! If you think he's cute in these pictures, you should just see him in person!

DARCY & BODI

 

Darcy and Bodi are siblings.  After her rescuer trapped the Mom, they were discovered in a den that she had built to keep them safe from predators. She (now named "Annie") had been living in the woods and doing her best to feed herself and her babies. The rescuer had been feeding her, but did not realize that she had recently had puppies until after the Mom was trapped. So, now, Darcy and Bodi will soon be 3 months old and have had the very best of care from their rescuer. They have both been wormed, given their puppy vaccinations, altered, socialized with other dogs, and housetrained. The rescuer even had a DNA test run on them and discovered that their heritage is large dogs of all kinds! =) Bodi, a male, is the larger of the two and will probably top out at 55 - 60 pounds. Darcy, the dainty girl, will most likely be around 45-50 pounds. These puppies who had NO chance at a decent life at all are, instead, ready for adoption into good homes. They can be separated, but finding a single home would be great, too. Keep in mind that while they have had all the advantages that humans can afford them, they are still puppies; and, not knowing about all our human rules, will chew, dig, and play rough! They will also steal your heart, cuddle with you on the couch, protect you with all their might and bring more love and joy into your life than you can possibly imagine.
