Lab lovers 🔊 we have your boy!! Meet handsome, smart and well behaved Dallas.

Just like his city namesake, Dallas is big - 95 lbs of yellow lab love. Some stats on our sweet lug…
Great with dogs ✅
Nice to cats ✅
Fully potty trained and crate trained ✅✅
Walks well on a leash ✅
Knows many basic commands such as sit, stay and down ✅✅✅
Loves snuggles and playtime equally ✅✅

Like many labs, Dallas tore his ACL playing with his friends, but we are covering his surgery and he should have no long term effects. He also prefers a home without small children, but would welcome other animals living with him.

Here are a few words from one of our volunteers/fosters who has spent time with Dallas in her home:

“From my experience I can say he is such a good boy! Dallas is crate trained, fully potty trained, knows commands like sit, shake, and down. He is good on a leash and enjoys his walks. He is a very happy boy and loves attention and belly rubs. He also LOVES to play fetch. Dallas enjoys meeting other dogs and seems to ignore our cat so far. He is perfect for anyone looking for a classic happy-go-lucky lab.”

What a very good boy! Fill out an app to bring this handsome labby pup home! 💛💛💛

Have you ever seen such gorgeous amber eyes? Or such a beautiful brindle coat? And can we tell you that this girl is super sweet and well mannered in addition to being this pretty? Why the heck is she still here?!

Martika is a 3 year old boxer mix and we are scratching our heads over here trying to figure out why she hasn’t been adopted. Is it because of her coloring or blocky head? We can assure you there’s only lean-in snuggles and sloppy tongue kisses from this pup, she doesn’t have an aggressive bone in her body despite how meaty she might look.

Martika spent some time in a foster home and was delightful - great on a leash, potty trained, well mannered and expert level couch snuggler. She also proved she’s a worthy patio companion and can hang at any dog-friendly establishment while you socialize with your human friends too! She is great with people and most dogs and only asks for head scratches in return.

Martika also has her own highlight on our page! Her foster took over our Instagram stories recently, so if you are interested in this sweet girl be sure to scroll through much more information there. And, pleeeease, share this gentle gal with your friends and family so we might match her with her forever home soon. She is so deserving! 🤎🖤🤎🖤🤎

It’s true, this 11 mo old husky mix really is *the best boy* and is ready to give you all his love! 💙

Groot loves to run and play outside and play ball (check out the video of him nailing fetch! So athletic!). He gets along wonderfully with other dogs and all people, including kids. His foster mama said he’s even fully potty trained and walks like a dream on a leash. When playtime is over he loves to cuddle and take naps with you on the couch … what more could you want?! 💙

If this *best boy* sounds like a good fit for your active home, fill out an app to meet him!! 💙

Hey little handsome man! Sweet boy Moondust has the cutest “socks” and the best personality. We can’t believe he hasn’t been adopted yet! He is doing so well in his foster home, and is ready to find his forever people. Here’s what his foster mama has to say:

“Moondust is a 12ish week mixed breed puppy. He is so sweet and cuddly but also loves to explore and smell new things! He is 90% house trained and has made massive progress in the past week. He sleeps in his crate at night for 7-8 hours and during the day for naps! His favorite toys are anything fluffy. He is patiently waiting for his forever home and forever parents!!”

He sounds just about perfect to us. Fill out an app and meet this good looking little pup before he’s scooped up! 🌝✨🌝✨🌝

Wow, this boy is a stunner! I don’t know what’s more striking, his golden eyes or that fluffy black fur. Say hello to handsome as heck Hawk! 🖤

Hawk is a very snuggly, loving 3 year old boy who is smaller than he looks at just 37 pounds. He gets along great with other dogs and people and is a little toooo interested in cats so would do best in a feline-free home. He walks well on a leash and loves playtime in the yard or on a hike/walk/run. 🖤

Hawk is a very sweet cuddler and is sure to keep you warm on these cool fall nights. Make him yours today!! 🖤

S T U N N I N G and S M A R T

This girl’s got both - brains and beauty! Meet gorgeous Cinderella, a 2 year old Aussie mix who’s eager to please.

The first thing you’ll notice about this sweet pup (besides her super cool heterochromia - differently colored eyes) is how responsive she is to her humans. She is crazy smart and immediately learned commands like sit, stay, shake, lay and more. She loves walks, playing fetch, other dogs and kids. One thing she doesn’t like (or perhaps likes a little too much?) is cats. So a no feline home is best for this girl.

She also enjoys chewing on bones, chasing tennis balls, and snuggling on the couch with her people. She is truly a great dog, and will make a wonderful addition to a family that is cat free.

Interested in this young pup with the whole package? Apply to meet her!! https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/HTH/Dog

🌟 K I D A P P R O V E D 🌟

So you’ve been searching for the perfect family dog? One who’s gentle and loving with little kids, house trained and just the right medium size? 🌟🌟🌟 We have your match! It’s Zara, this pretty lab mix who is hitting all the marks in her foster home.

Zara is a 10 month old lab mix who’s 50lbs and loves everyone - kids, cats, dogs, adults- everyone. She has won the hearts of her foster home and we know she’ll make the best forever pup for another lucky family! Here’s what her foster mom has to say:

“Zara is pretty awesome. She would do amazing in a house with small kids as she relishes all sorts of attention. She is the kind of dog who would endure a little girl dressing her up like a princess, or she’d play hide and seek in the yard, she would also be the kind of dog to sit under a highchair and hope for scraps.

She loves kids! Loves them! In fact, when she hears a little giggle she will drag you to the ends of the earth to get to the source. She knows that kids play and that’s all she wants to do. She loves toys, other dogs, and cats too. She’s housebroken and still very young at only 10 months old. Zara dislikes baths but was perfectly happy playing in the rain when it was muddy. She is still learning to stay off the furniture and not beg for food, so some of her house manners could use a little work but she is well-adjusted and happy, with a tail that constantly wags. My son described her as the perfect “fun sized” dog. Not like a big candy bar or a mini… but that perfect size in the middle, the “fun size”. “

We love that description! Fun-size, kid-approved Zara is ready to make your life a little brighter! Apply for her today at https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/HTH/Dog

Little dog lovers, we have your girl! Meet Cortana, a purebred Coton de Tulear with an adorable underbite and the sweetest personality. 🤍🤍🤍

This 5 year old girl came to us this weekend as a breeder surrender and she is doing incredible in her foster home. She loves dogs of all sizes, kids and especially the cat - she does a hilarious little bounce in front of the cat to try to make her play with her (the humans all think this is very funny - the cat is less amused 🤣). She walks well on a leash, is gentle, is crate trained and is picking up potty training quickly. 🤍🤍🤍

Cortana is just 12lbs and doesn’t shed. She is eager for love and just melts into your lap when you pet her. She will be an easy going, loving companion for any home. Fill out an app to meet her before she’s scooped up! 🤍🤍🤍

We’ve got another #InstaTakeover tomorrow for #FosterFeatureFriday and it’s this gorgeous brindle girl with the hound dog ears… Sheeba!

Sheeba is 4 years old and 47 pounds and she is loving life in her foster home. Here’s what her foster mom has to say about her:

“Sheba is doing great in my home! She is crate trained and house trained. She sleeps in her crate through the night without a peep!
She LOVES playing with toys by herself and will play fetch with a ball.

She knows basic commands and we are working on “place”. She also walks great on a leash! She adores being close to people and snuggling up on the couch with you and snoozing! She also will play independently and also hang out in her crate throughout the day. She loves nothing more than cuddles and snuggles on the couch with everyone. She loves people and has been around dogs (she prefers male dogs). She sometimes will jump up to say Hello, but is quickly corrected with the down/off command.”

Sheeba has been waiting for a long time for her FURever home! Be sure to watch our stories all day tomorrow (Friday) to learn more about her life and what her perfect family would look like. Thanks to @sarahbenoist811 for fostering this precious girl!
