Gypsy and her sister Stormi were dumped in a hay field with their mom and had no food, water or shelter. We estimate her birth date to be early April 2026 and think she is a mix of Shepherd, lab, boxer and maybe Catahoula Leopard Dog with an estimated adult weight of 45 to 47 lbs. She is mostly house trained and uses a doggy door when she needs to go potty. She has a sweet/silly personality, loves and is kissy on people, cats, and other dogs. When not playing, her calm side comes alive. She likes to watch TV or lay upside down on the couch nearby when you on a computer or reading or with her dog friends and cats. She especially likes to watch you cook (she is very food oriented). She is attentive to her family, bonds easily and is making great progress on her leash and obedience training learning all the commands a puppy needs to know. She does great in a car but has gotten car sick on rare occasions. She loves to play with toys, collect them in her bed and chew on chewies (lots of them). She especially likes her squeaky toys, sucks on her favorite, will carry them around gently and then decide it's time to shred them so you will need to keep few spares available for a while. Gypsy will need an active family and/or doggy playmate. She's also looking for a loving home with a yard big enough that she can run and play and that is secured with a 6ft wooden fence which is not near a busy street. The good news is that with the right training and LOTS of love, she will be the best addition to your family ever and your best bud, ready to go when you are.

Meet Orville, the Wright brother who apparently decided that flying was best accomplished four paws at a time. Give him a toy and he’s cleared for takeoff—chasing it, pouncing on it, and occasionally achieving impressive levels of airborne enthusiasm. But Orville’s favorite destination isn’t the toy box; it’s right beside his people receiving belly rubs and sharing kisses. Attention is his true fuel, and he’s always ready for another flight plan as long as it includes playtime, affection, and someone to appreciate his considerable charm. With Orville around, you may not get much done—but you’ll have a first-class co-pilot.

Meet Dorothy, a 6-month-old German Shepherd and one of four sisters named after the Golden Girls. We must admit her personality does not fit her name. Right now she is all legs, and just enjoying the life of a puppy. She loves playing with other dogs, thinks water is pretty much the best invention ever, and is working on her leash skills and other puppy basics. She’s got plenty of growing up to do, but this girl is already making quite a splash—sometimes literally! Dorothy is ready to find her forever family, where she can keep learning, playing, and showing off that fabulous fur.

Meet Blanche, one of four German Shepherd puppies named after the Golden Girls. Like her namesake, she is full of charm, but the similarity stops there. She’s is, after all, a German Shepherd puppy, and therefore, busy perfecting a different set of social skills—making dog friends, playing hard, and figuring out what all those human words like “sit” and “come” are supposed to mean! She’s playful, loves the company of other dogs, and is just beginning her journey toward becoming a well-mannered young lady. She has plenty of time to master the basics, and with those German Shepherd brains, we suspect she’ll catch on quickly. For now, she’s happy to make friends, have fun, and charm everyone she meets. After all, you don’t have to be a Golden Girl to be golden!

Are you looking for a full-time companion with an easygoing personality? Maizie has you covered. At 4 years old, she has perfected the art of just being there. She’ll follow you from room to room without being clingy, expertly warm your feet during quiet moments, and dispense kisses whenever morale seems low. Ear scratches and belly rubs are her favorite currency, and her happy wiggles are all the thanks you’ll ever need. Maizie asks for very little—just your time. She’s already decided you’re her hero; she’s simply waiting for you to figure out that she might be yours, too.

Give him a squeaky ball and watch the entertainment begin! Mako loves chasing toys, making them squeak with a perfectly placed nose boop, and proudly tossing them into the air so he can chase them all over again. And the best part? Mako doesn't need you to keep the game going! If your throwing arm needs a break, he's perfectly content creating his own one-dog game of fetch. He'll toss, chase, pounce, repeat…and keep himself thoroughly entertained.But there is ONE thing that can make Mako forget all about his beloved squeaky toys…YOU.

Meet Doc – A Three-Legged Wonder with a Heart of Gold Some dogs simply have a way of changing your perspective on life, and Doc is one of them. At just 3 years old, this handsome German Shepherd has already overcome more obstacles than most dogs ever will. Through it all, Doc has remained resilient, optimistic, and full of love. Losing a leg hasn't slowed him down one bit—in fact, he proves every single day that determination is stronger than any challenge. Doc isn't looking for anything extravagant. His dream home is simple: a family who will welcome him with open arms, a backyard where he can soak up the sunshine, and a comfy couch where he can melt into your side after a day of adventures.

Charles is looking for a quiet, and loving home with someone who will appreciate and understand that it’s ok to take things slow sometimes. Charles and his sister Cleo both do well with other nice dogs and proper introductions. Charles enjoys treats and hanging out in the play yards with his sister or other canine yard-mates. A home with a canine friend that Charles can hang out with and who will help him learn trust, household etiquette and that humans can be a pretty good thing. He takes treats gently but he will take his time warming up new people. Charles is making progress and is learning that people can be a positive thing in his life.

Meet Knox Oath!

At just 1 year old and 14 pounds, Knox Oath is a bundle of energy, curiosity, and playful puppy charm! This busy boy wants to know what you’re doing at all times, and if you’re touching something, you can bet he’ll have his nose right there to investigate. Getting dressed can be an adventure with Knox around!

Knox LOVES, loves, loves to play, especially with squeaky toys! He also enjoys running the fence with the neighbor dogs in the backyard and would do well with a playful canine companion who can help him burn off some of that energy.

Meet Woody!

Woody is a handsome 4-year-old, 15-pound red long-haired Dachshund who has already been through more than any dog should. He came to the shelter as a stray, sadly dragging his feet and struggling to walk normally. He spent almost a month waiting for someone to come for him, and thankfully, Dachshund Rescue of Houston did!

Woody is now safe and resting comfortably in a loving foster home. He can walk, although he still has a funny gait, so for now he is enjoying some well-deserved Kennel rest to give his body the time it needs to heal completely.

Meet Petey!

Petey is a 3-year-old, 14-pound bundle of joy with a smile that can brighten anyone's day. This handsome little guy had a rough start after being found as an injured stray. Because of his injury, his tail had to be docked, but don't let that fool you. If Petey isn't sleeping, he's wagging what he has left with pure happiness!

Smoky Bear is a new arrival to CTDR after being found running the streets in Austin. The finder took him home in hopes of finding his owners but to no avail. CTDR was contacted to see if we had room for this handsome boy and of course, we said yes. Smoky has started his vetting process but sadly he tested positive for those nasty heartworms and will have to undergo heartworm treatment before being adopted along with needing an extensive dental. Please look for updates on this handsome boy.

Sadie is a new arrival to CTDR after being surrendered by her owner who could no longer keep her. Sadie became a little jealous of a new dog on the home and it was best to have Sadie find a new home. Sadie is a beautiful red standard girl who would do best as an only dog in the home. She is fully up to date on her vaccines and is ready to find her forever home. Could that be you? If so, please complete an application at www.ctdr.org.

Gigi Grace--or Grace, as we call her--can be calm and is always affectionate, once she gets to know you. She is my shadow. She follows me everywhere, and when I sit down, she jumps in my lap. She loves to nap curled up next to me. If she's not on my lap, she is on the floor right next to me. However, she is also very playful, especially lately, since she is now used to us and fully recovered from her surgery (spaying). After breakfast, she likes to play with our other dachshund. She also has a particular toy that she likes. She will shake it and run around with it and play tug-of-war with me. She LOVES to run around the yard.

Meet cute little Poke. This cute little guy is a new arrival to Rescue arriving with his friend, Stick. Poke is about a year old and weighing 9.0 lbs. Poke is a little shy but will warm up quickly.

He would love to be adopted with Stick as they are a little bonded but it is not a requirement that they be adopted together.
