History: We recently welcomed a group of deserving dogs who needed help from overcrowded rural shelters in Texas. They are settling into their foster homes and doing well as they start their journey in finding their forever home soon!

A Note from the Foster: Hey everyone! My Name is Mac, but my foster family calls me Bear because I am like a real-life teddy bear! 🐻

I am a sweet boy who love to give kisses, go for walks, playing with you, and snuggle a blanket! My foster family says I am going great at kennel training and sleeping through the night with a blanket to snuggle. I have potty training down with a consistent routine, and I would say about 99% of the time I make it to the yard before going an accident! I am working on my walk-leash manners, I like to keep my head on a swivel and sometimes my body follows!

I am looking for a family that is understanding and patient with me, as I am a little shy & nervous at first. Almost everything is new to me! I get along fine with my foster cat siblings, I really just do my own thing! Slow introductions with any family pets would be best, so I can get to know them at my pace. 

I cannot wait to meet my forever family and give them all the puppy kisses!

Adoption Fee: $750 + tax

Adoption Status: Is this dog available? Submitting an application is the best first step to learning if a dog is still available. There is a chance this dog could have a pending adoption when your application is submitted, however our team will offer approved applicants to be put on a waiting list for that dog. Additionally, we can make recommendations on other dogs that may be a match. Pending adoptions do not mean the adoption is finalized. Why did we implement this change? We implemented this update because, unfortunately, dogs were pending for applicants for several weeks and then the applicant would change their mind. This happens more often with puppies, as applications are submitted impulsivly more often for them. Our process is great because it takes a little time, so impulsive decisions fade. However it was unfortunate for the dogs, and the foster homes, as then the process needed to be re-started. By securing a wait-list we are able to move forward more quickly if a pending adoption falls through. This is a new process for us, so your feedback along the way is helpful! Thank you for supporting rescue and adoption!
