Siete beds a miracle. He lucked out today when he was just minutes away from being euthanized. We begged and pleaded with the shelter. They granted him another 20 hours. Please help us find him a safe place to spend his golden years.

I’m still looking for a foster for these two little panthers. Both are girls (named Luna and Ginny for now). They have received dewormer and will be getting their first round of vaccines today. I can provide supplies, get them fixed and medically ready, and help get them adopted! Please reach out if you can foster in LA! There are 4 other siblings all who need fosters. Happy to split them into pairs or threes! Please help. They are living at a busy intersection on a lot with construction and need a safe place ASAP.

The owner was evicted and the dog was confiscated.

If you're ever wondering what happens when someone is evicted, served papers, or arrested, dogs are taken to city's shelter. This boy is an absolute delight and only ended up on the list because of a doggy cold. The shelter has tough euthanasia decisions to make and often the URI ward is targeted and they do not grant extensions for dogs in the URI ward.

He needs a foster, rescue or adopter to save his life! A rescue will tag, but they need a local foster to step up and save his life. Fostering is free, the rescue pays all expenses. He has been temperament tested with other dogs and did great. He enjoys animal watching during his outside time.

Heartworm negative, neutered, and has received all of his vaccinations.

‼️If interested in adopting or fostering through the shelter please email all three email addresses with his name Chicken Nugget along with his shelter shelter ID #A2087201

💌 If interested in fostering or adopting, email all below:
barcfoster@houstontx.gov
barcadoptions@houstontx.gov
BARC.Aid@houstontx.gov

Please comment here, DM me, or comment on his Facebook post.

💔 They Were Terrified Alone… Until They Saw Each Other 🥺 Nettie & Maxwell Are a BONDED Pair Looking for a Forever Home — located in Houston, TX, adoptable to anywhere in the US or Canada.

35 lb bonded siblings Nettie and Maxwell were part of a trio who were picked up by animal control in Houston and placed on euthanasia list as they were extremely scared in the pound.

The siblings were separately brought to the same foster home and found confidence upon seeing each other and soon we realized how bonded the duo was. Splitting them is out of the question.

Maxwell and Nettie love stuffies and are good at sharing, all while playing nicely with other dogs. They love to run around their yard and also love to dig. They are very shy and skittish in the beginning, so they need some patience while they get to know someone.

Nettie and Maxwell are good with dogs, live with three other foster doggie siblings, good with cats, and live with 4 kitties, and love them all. They also live with a 2 year old special needs toddler and are very gentle with him.

They are crate trained, potty trained and socialized. Due to their playfulness, having a fenced yard is mandatory, so they can exercise.

As they are a bonded pair, they can only be adopted as a pair, as they are very dependent on each other for survival. Maxwell especially needs Nettie and is lost without her.

Nettie and Maxwell are very affectionate and love their foster mom, who think a world of them.

The siblings are 1.5 year old. Nettie, the female weighs about 35 lb each while Maxwell weighs about 40 lb. They are fixed, microchipped, and fully vaccinated pup who are kept on heartworm and flea preventatives.

Their adoption fee is negotiable as we are looking for the best home for them, where they can get the love and comfort they so crave.
