6. Bubbs
Meet Bubbs — A Sweet Senior Looking for His Happy Ending
At 9 years old, Bubbs suddenly found himself at the shelter after being left there with two other siblings. At a time in his life when he should be surrounded by comfort and love, he is instead spending his days waiting behind shelter walls.
Bubbs is an incredibly sweet, gentle, and friendly boy. ❤️ He has been tested with several male and female dogs and has shown a wonderfully calm and gentle demeanor.
Bubbs isn’t asking for much. He would be perfectly happy spending his senior years enjoying gentle walks, lying in the sunshine, relaxing in a comfy bed, and simply being close to his people and furry siblings. ☀️
We would LOVE to get Bubbs out of the shelter and into a FOSTER or FOREVER HOME where he can finally relax and enjoy the life he deserves.

❤️ If you foster Bubbs, we will cover all of his expenses.
Can you give Bubbs his second chance?

7. Rosie
❤️ MEET ROSIE — 14 MONTHS OF WAITING… NOW SHE NEEDS HER FOREVER HOME ❤️
Rosie’s life has not been easy.
Her family left her at a shelter, and for 14 long months, Rosie waited behind those kennel doors. Day after day, people walked past her. More than a year went by, and nobody gave her a chance.
Finally, Trinity Gap Rescue said, “Enough.” Rosie was pulled from the shelter and is now safe in a foster home. ❤️
But foster care is only the beginning of her new life. Rosie still needs a family of her very own.
Rosie is 7 years old, about 50 pounds, fully vetted, spayed and a Shepherd mix.
She is an incredibly sweet girl who craves human love and attention.
Read more about Rosie
After spending so much time alone in a kennel, she just wants to be close to her people. ❤️
And guess what? Rosie LOVES CATS!
For now, we believe Rosie would be happiest as the only dog in the home, giving her the time and space she needs to fully decompress and finally understand that she is safe.
Rosie has a wonderfully calm, chill demeanor and can be left alone in the house. She could be a great fit for either a house or an apartment.
Rosie has already lost more than a year of her life waiting behind bars. We cannot let her spend the rest of her life waiting for someone to choose her.
Could you be Rosie’s second chance?
If you are interested in adopting Rosie or would like to learn more about her, please email:

❌❌ PLEASE SHARE ROSIE! ❌❌Her family may be just one share away. ❤️

Adopting a senior dog in North Richland Hills
Older dogs are usually calm, affectionate and happy with shorter walks, which makes them a good match for older adults and first-time dog owners.
Ask the rescue about the dog's health and vet history. Many rescues charge less to adopt a senior dog.
Many small dogs live to 15 or older, so a senior dog can still be part of your family for years.
