Our Adoptable Pets

Rowan

Meet Rowan! He's ready for his forever home but needs a foster placement first!

Rowan's favorite activities include chasing squirrels, playing with toys, pulling out fluff, and rubbing his head and back under your legs—especially when he's nervous.

- 3-year-old red male, 75 lbs

- Chow experience required

- No young children or older folks; he can be mouthy and nippy during playtime

- Other dogs are fine as long as they are tolerant of his playful nature

- No cats; fenced yard needed; best with a private space to roam rather than leash walks for potty time

- Continued training on social skills and mouthiness during play is essential

Rowan is currently located near Houston, TX.

Mocha

Warm, bold, and full of heart—Mocha is as special as her name! At 4 years old and 57 lbs, this smart, energetic girl is a mix of shepherd, husky, and likely some herding breed. Her curiosity and energy can get her into mischief, but it also makes her a fast learner when she has someone dedicated to guiding her.

Training & Skills:

Mocha thrives as a one-and-only pup and is happiest when all the love and attention are hers. She’s smart and eager to learn, quickly picking up commands and routines with patience and guidance. Some of her skills include:

- Basic commands: sit, settle, shake, kennel, come, “no ma’am,” and “easy” (for jumping/mouthiness)

- Quick learner: She catches on fast when focused

- Loves structure: Routines and consistent guidance help her shine

Why Mocha is amazing:

- Smart, affectionate, and playful

- Confident in new situations

- Bonds deeply with her people

- Loves being part of the action

- Zoomies? She’s your girl

- Cozy blanket pile? She’s right there

She’s ready to pour all her love into a home that’s just hers—her perfect forever family.

Mocha is currently located Texas.

Buddi

Buddi is searching for a loving forever home! This handsome senior Chow mix is 7 years young and has a heart full of curiosity and wisdom.

In his old life, Buddi previously enjoyed the freedom of a doggie door, coming and going as he pleased. However, as his owner’s health declined, structure and discipline became inconsistent, allowing his independent Chow nature to shine through. Now in foster care, he’s learning routine and beginning to trust again. While he still appreciates his space, he’s showing more openness to companionship and love. He prefers not to be left alone for long periods and would thrive in a patient, understanding home where he feels safe and secure.

He deserves a home where he can continue to grow and be cherished. If you’re looking for a loyal, soulful companion, Buddi could be the perfect match.

Buddi is currently located in Magnolia, TX.

Candace

There’s something about fall — the way the air changes, the way light softens, the way old things shed to make room for new growth. For Candace, this season is her turning point.

When she was first rescued, Candace was hidden beneath layers of mats and fear. She could barely walk and wanted to disappear. But with time, patience, and the gentle care of her foster mom, she’s begun to bloom.

Now, Candace greets each morning like a new chapter — trotting around the yard, inspecting every leaf, chasing the wind, and stretching in the sun. She’s learning what safety feels like, what trust feels like… what home could feel like.

She’s still not a fan of the crate or fish oil (some things never change), but she’s stronger, healthier, and happier every day. Candace is heartworm positive and continuing her slow-kill treatment, but that doesn’t stop her from embracing this new season with confidence and curiosity.

Candace would do best as the only dog, soaking up all the attention and calm she deserves.

Candace is currently being fostered in Texas.

Siri

Siri is a very sweet 2-year-old Chow mix who is eager to please and loves to play with other dogs! She also knows how to settle down and relax in her crate, giving you the best of both worlds. She is a little shy but is getting more confident on a daily basis.

She does play a little rough with her doggy companions, but she takes correction from other dogs very well. Due to her timid nature, she is cautious around cats and may be fine with a feline sibling with proper introductions. If you are looking for a good snuggle buddy on the couch while you watch your favorite TV show, Siri is the girl for you.

Siri is currently located in Austin, TX.

Peanut

Sweet Peanut is officially looking for a family to call his own! This 5–6 year old, 35-pound chow mix is located in San Marcos, TX and is ready for his next chapter after everything he’s been through.

Peanut is still settling in and letting his personality unfold, but he already shows that soft, steady charm that makes you stop and take a second look. He’s at that perfect age where he’s past the chaos of puppyhood but still full of life and love to give.

What he’s really looking for now is simple—comfort, consistency, and someone to call his person.

Peanut is currently being fostered in San Marcos, TX.

Canelo

Canelo is the kind of dog who keeps life interesting. This handsome black Chow is 6 years old, 45 pounds, and equal parts laid-back companion and backyard explorer. He's happiest lounging near his people, keeping watch over the yard, and investigating every squirrel that dares enter his kingdom.

Canelo's Highlights:

- Great with people and older children

- Does well with male and female dogs with proper introductions

- Bilateral entropion surgery completed April 2025

- Heartworm positive; treatment fully covered by rescue

Canelo Quirks:

- Not interested in toys or fetch

- Chirps at squirrels instead

- Loves physical contact while sleeping

- Gets the zoomies, smacks you with a paw, and runs away like it's the funniest thing in the world

Ideal Home:

Canelo has a strong prey drive, so no cats or small animals. He is working on resource guarding around food with other dogs and should be fed separately. He has no history of bites, fights, or aggression.

Canelo is currently being fostered in San Antonio, TX.

Swift

Meet Swift, the sweetest 1 year old you'll ever have the chance to meet. Swift has a heart as big as his puppy paws. He loves everyone he meets and would happily spend every moment by your side if he could. He is also a great pack member and needs a dog-compatible playmate, or multiple!

One of our favorite things about him? At mealtime, while the other puppies rush straight to their food bowls, Swift hangs back for just a few more cuddles. In Swift's world, love always comes first.

Swift's Set List includes:

-Loves everyone he meets and boasts a gentle, affectionate personality!

-Wonderful in his kennel

-Expected to be around 50 pounds full grown

-Stunning shorter black coat with beautiful golden highlights

-UTD on vaccines, on prevention and neutered

-Bonus: certified cuddle bug

Swift is the kind of dog who doesn't ask for much—just a family to love with his whole heart. He'll be your loyal adventure buddy, your shadow around the house, and your favorite reason to come home each day.

Swift is currently being fostered in Hallsville, TX.

Aubree

Aubree was found as a stray in Smithville, TX. We don’t know what her life looked like before rescue, or what experiences shaped the way she sees the world today. What we do know is that she deserved a chance — and she has absolutely made the most of it.

Aubree’s personality is very “Chow” through and through. She is not a social, outgoing dog, and she will not immediately warm up to strangers. Instead, she is observant, independent, and thoughtful about who she gives her trust to. But once that trust is earned, she is deeply loyal, quietly affectionate, and incredibly devoted to her person. She bonds in a calm, steady way — the kind of companionship that feels grounded, real, and meaningful.

She will thrive in a home that respects her boundaries and understands that trust is something she builds slowly, not something she gives freely on day one. She is best suited for a calm environment without children, where her world can stay predictable, peaceful, and safe.

We’ve already seen what she can become when she feels secure — softer, more engaged, and willing to seek out connection in her own quiet way. Now we’re just waiting for the person who gets to see the rest of her story unfold.

Aubree is currently being fostered in San Marcos, TX.

Pringles

Some days, the energy just feels softer — and Pringles fits right into that calm. On mellow afternoons, all he wants is a little time outside to sniff the air, take in his surroundings, and settle in to watch the chickens before curling up for a nap on the back step.

Pringles is wonderfully easygoing and well-mannered outdoors. He enjoys his time outside without digging or being destructive, content to relax and quietly observe the world around him. When he hears the chickens or pigs behind the play yard, he’ll slowly wander over with calm curiosity, watch for a bit, and then return to his nap like it’s all part of the routine.

He’s also shown that he can enjoy the company of other dogs — recently making a mellow, laid-back male friend. Pringles was happy to sniff and say hello before heading back to his favorite pastime: chicken-watching.

And of course, there’s his prized possession — a Kong toy. Anytime someone walks by, Pringles is quick to grab it and proudly show it off, as if to say, “Look what I have.” Pringles would thrive in a home that appreciates a dog who doesn’t need chaos to be happy — just steady routines, gentle companionship, and space to relax.

Pringles is currently being fostered in New Braunfels, Texas.
