1. Heath

Puppy (6 months) · Male · Great Pyrenees (long coat) · 20 mi from Houston

Meet Heath, a wonderfully sweet "badger boy" with a beautiful, slightly curly coat who is looking for his perfect forever family! As part of our "Sweet Treat" litter born right here in our rescue care, Heath has been raised with hands-on love from the very beginning, making him remarkably calm, smart, and responsive to human affection. He is a gentle soul who is perhaps a bit more thoughtful and reserved than his energetic littermates, making him an absolute dream for someone who loves a balanced pup. Heath truly adores his cuddle time and loves a good play session, but he is equally happy to slow down, relax, and contentedly chew on a nice stick. If you are looking for a loving, steady companion with fantastic genetics and a sweet disposition, Heath is ready to bring a lifetime of devotion to your home.

10. Lola

Puppy (5 months 11 days) · Female · Jack Russell Terrier / Chihuahua / Mixed (medium coat) · 4 mi from Houston

DOB 5/6/26, weight up to 15 lb. at maturity

Hey there, everyone! I’m Lola, a very sweet, feisty, and very playful wire-coated Russell Terrier mix gal who looks like a plush toy come to life! I may have some Chihuahua mixed in because I’m mostly black with white paws and vest, and Russell Terriers are always mostly white with black markings. My dark, almond-shaped eyes and mobile V-shaped ears exhibit the Russell’s hallmark intelligent expression.

Read more about Lola

I have an adorable personality – although I rarely like to be held -- and I love to run and have fun. Although I’d probably be good around kids, Foster Meowmy prefers my forever family to be toddler-free. I’d probably be good around cats, but I can’t promise that I wouldn’t chase them! I get startled by large dogs, so Foster Mom is insisting that I be adopted into a home with no large dogs. Actually, I'd shine the most if there's only a small, male dog to be my buddy or if I'm an only dog-child.

Foster Mommy noticed that my sisters, Lili and Luna, and I were kept outside by my owners. After expressing her concern to them that we weren’t meant to be strictly outdoor dogs, she was able to persuade them to surrender us to her. They admitted that they couldn’t financially afford to keep us anyway. I weighed 8 pounds at 3 months old and should weigh up to 15 pounds at maturity.

Now I’m ready to become the jaunty, lively new addition to my forever family. In fact, I dream about running around in the backyard with everyone and then collapsing in their laps while we watch TV together. Could that be you? Arrange to meet me today! I promise we’ll fall head over paws in love with each other the instant we meet!

HOPE ID D26-0624-0028

Lola’s $200 adoption fee includes spay/neuter, basic vaccines, microchip and registration, testing for heartworms, negative fecal test, and preventative treatment for heartworms and fleas.

11. Lucy

Puppy (2 months 26 days) · Female · Dachshund / Terrier / Mixed (medium coat) · 19 mi from Houston

Meet Lucy! This beautiful little baby is only 14 weeks old and was found running the streets all alone. CTDR jumped into action right away when we were contacted and she is now receiving her vetting. This little girl loves her person and will bark when you leave the room. She is not fond of her crate but will curl up and sleep through the night. She has met the cat at her foster home and was fine and gets along with all of the dogs at the foster home. Lucy still has some vetting to complete before she can be officially adopted but if you are looking for the cutest little girl to love, Lucy is your girl. Please complete an application at www.ctdr.org.

Meet Nebula & Gamora,

Siblings dumped as puppies and saved by a Good Samaritan. These two are sadly spending their best puppy years in a vet clinic waiting for a home to let them romp and play. They are loved and cared for but it is no place for a pup to grow up. They can go to a home together or separate homes.

This sibling duo is fully vetted and ready for a home! Please visit www.scoutshonor.org to consider bringing them home!

Adopting a puppy in Houston

Puppies usually go to their new homes from about eight weeks old, once they're weaned and have had their first vaccinations. Most rescues spay or neuter them before adoption, or include it in the fee.

Ask the rescue how big the puppy is expected to grow and which breeds they think are in the mix, so you can plan for the dog they'll become.

Puppies need a lot of your time: house-training, a few minutes of training every day, several small meals, and someone home often enough to let them out. A puppy class is a good way to start.
