ABOUT ME: How 'bout dem WRINKLES?! If you like a smooshy face and pouty lip, I'm your gal! Bella is the name and I'm a bundle of fun. I love toys and treats, playing in water, and running zoomies around the yard. My dislikes are big loud trucks and gardening equipment. The shelter has been a really tough environment for me, but staff has given me a lot of attention and love to help me learn how to be my best self. I spend lots of office time with staff and am a pretty good girl who knows how to entertain myself and relax. I even know Sit. I greet my friends with full body wiggles - I can hardly contain my joy!HOME NEEDS: I require a house with a private, securely fenced yard. A quiet home with fewer visitors would be best.KIDS: Adults Only, please. Bring everyone in the household to meet me!DOGS/CATS: No thanks, I'd like to be the only pet in the home. SPECIAL NOTE: Potential adopters get to foster-to-adopt to make sure we're a good match!

ABOUT APOLLO: And the award for "Best in Ears" goes to...Apollo! Apollo came to SPCA of Texas as part of a cruelty case in February 2019.

Once he's your bud, he loves you and is even willing to share his snacks or toys with you.

ABOUT ME: I'm a pretty sweet guy once I get comfortable! My favorite thing is to play with other dogs, maybe a little too much, and nuzzle you for pets. Once I get to know you I become a completely different dog and show how confident I can truly be!FOSTER TESTIMONIAL: "He is so loving. He may need to learn some trust at first, but he has it in him to be a great boy. His tails wags faster than I've ever seen another dog wag. If he is feeling the love, he comes up to you with his turbo-tail and it is adorable because you know he is so excited."DREAM HOME: I will need a house with a securely fenced-in yard where I can keep working on my leash confidence. I also want to meet everyone in the household before coming home. DOGS: Yes please! I will require another friendly dog in the home to serve as my companion and role model.

ABOUT ME: I was rescued by the SPCA of Texas when my buddies and I were found abandoned out in the woods. I had little to no human contact prior to being rescued, so it has taken the behavior team a long time to show me that life with humans is okay. I've been showing interest in new people even though I am scared and I'm constantly improving on my leashwalking. I love snacks and I hope my foster is ready to bribe me with lots of tasty treats!MY HOME: A calm, quiet household with humans 12 and up. My home should have a securely fenced yard with at least 6-foot privacy fencing. I'll need to meet everyone in the home before I leave!DOGS: Bring them to meet me!NOTE: I'm available for foster-to-adopt.APPOINTMENT TYPE: Scheduled- please fill out an online application to meet me!
ABOUT ME: My rescue mates and I were found living out in the middle of nowhere living in the woods. I love treats and I even recently learned that pets aren't so bad either. I'm such a beautiful lady with a quirky personality- I get excited to see my friends and can't contain my excitement! DREAM HOME: I will require a home with a securely fenced-in yard where I can confidently do my business or a low traffic apartment.DOGS: Yes please! Having another dog in the home is required to help with my confidence. KIDS: I'd do best with older teens 15 + or adults only please.APPOINTMENT TYPE: Scheduled- complete an online application to meet me.
ABOUT ME: Yes, I'm fancy... just like my name! You'll clearly notice my gorgeous blue eyes first - maybe I'm a "designer" dog after all! I came to the SPCA in October of 2019 from a hoarding case along with 42 other animals and I was the largest dog in the bunch! I was pretty shut down when I arrived, but now I've spent over a year in my foster home and have come a long way!PERSONALITY: I am really relaxed, and I love laying on my bed A LOT. I am a bit shy, but being in a foster home has definitely helped me learn how to "dog". My foster parent says that I'm pretty low maintenance and absolutely the sweetest dog - I don't really bark and have fun just laying and chewing on a toy. Whenever I see my favorite humans, I just can't stop wagging my tail in excitement! Although I don't walk on a leash, I go outside to do my business and am completely house trained in my foster home.KIDS: They're adorable, but I require a home with kids over the age of 12. Please bring kids ages 12-17 to meet me!DOGS: Sure, please bring them to meet me! I live with two other dogs in my foster home and appreciate that they give me space and let me do my own thing. A smaller dog or another chill dog like me would be fine or I could be happy soaking up all your attention for myself!CATS: I do well with the kitty in my foster home!HOME NEEDS: I am looking for a calm, quiet household. Also, I'm still working on my leash walking skills, so I'll need a house with a securely fenced-in back yard. I love to sun bathe!SPECIAL NOTE: Potential adopters get to take me out for a trial adoption to make sure we're a perfect fit! The SPCA of Texas will provide all medical and behavioral support to ensure a smooth transition.COPY/PASTE this link into your browser for more pictures of me: https://bit.ly/3jCI7pV
About Me: Hi there, my name is Cona and I came to the SPCA of Texas in October of 2019 with 42 of my Chihuahua-type friends and some chickens! I struggled with skin issues for a long time and that's finally settled, although I may look naked for a long time... maybe always? The next hurdle is losing some of this weight! I've spent time in a foster home and I occasionally ask them for pets or snuggles - it's always on my terms. Otherwise, I'm a really low maintenance and easy dog. I never bark, do fine when left alone, and go to the bathroom outside or will use pee pads if available. I love to sunbathe even though that means my foster parents have to spray doggy sunscreen on me first - yuck!HOME NEEDS: I need a calm, quiet home with a securely fenced yard. I'm still working on getting comfortable on leash and loud sounds make me nervous.DOGS: While I'm not a dog that actively tries to engage other dogs, I can peacefully coexist with calm doggos.KIDS: Adults Only, please.NOTE: I'm available for foster-to-adopt,so that the SPCA of Texas can provide medical and behavior support while I settle into a new home!COPY/PASTE for more cute pictures/videos of me: https://bit.ly/3wC66KlAPPOINTMENT TYPE: Scheduled.
