Dogs for Adoption in Tool, TX: 20 Dogs Looking for a Home

Hi. My name is Zorro and I am a handsome German Shepherd mix. I was found abandoned in a culvert in the country with my brother, Batman. We were being fed by the Good Samaritans who found us. We got along with all of their children and animals but we were too much for them to care for in addition to their dogs, cats, and horses. Straydog came to our rescue and we are now getting our puppy vaccinations. I am very playful and like to swim and play fetch. I never meet a stranger and would love to find my forever home. Come meet me at Straydog.

Choco was rescued along with his brother, Churro, when they were found with a horrible case of sarcoptic mange. They were quarantined and treated for their mange and are now healthy and happy. Choco is a gorgeous, chocolate colored lab mix and loves to play with his toys, his brother, and the caregivers. He will make a great family dog and is receiving all of his puppy vaccinations. You can meet him at our shelter and take him home to be a member of your family.

Churro was rescued along with his brother, Choco, when they were found with a horrible case of sarcoptic mange. They were quarantined and treated for their mange and are now healthy, beautiful dogs. Churro is a gorgeous cinnamon colored puppy and loves to play with his brother, his toys, and the caregivers. He is very loving and affectionate and is receiving his puppy vaccinations. He would love to meet you at our shelter.

Messi was abandoned at the vet when he was diagnosed with Addison's Disease. Straydog rescued him and believe that he deserves a chance for a good life just like his name sake, the famous Argentine soccer player, Lionel Messi. His disease is easily controlled with a daily steroid pill. He can live a long and happy life.

He is a typical loving little puppy. He loves to play with his toys, is affectionate, loving, and like to sit in your lap. He is leash trained and is in the process of getting all of his puppy vaccinations and will be neutered and microchipped soon.

Messi is waiting for you to come and meet him. He will melt your heart.

Jasmine was rescued by Straydog after a kind community member found her abandoned and starving in the country. She is very gentle and affectionate. She is already house trained and walks well on a leash. She is a young girl about 2 years of age and is the perfect size at 35 pounds. She is going through heartworm treatment right now, but soon will be ready to find her fur-ever home. She loves children and adults and will make a wonderful companion for a family. You must meet this sweet girl. She will steal you heart.

Hi, my name is May. I was rescued with my puppies by a nice sameritian who found homes for all of them but sadly couldn't keep me so Straydog came to my rescue. I had a bad leg and needed to get it amputated, so now I am a 3-legged happy ball of joy. That doesn't stop me from running around and giving all the love I have. I am going through heartworm treatment right now, but will soon be clear to go to my fur-ever home. If you would like to meet me, contact Straydog.org.

Dee was rescued by a fellow dog lover and supporter. While she lived in his home he said she is loving, trusting, and intelligent. She is house-broken and walks well on a leash. She loves people and playing with toys. Occasionally, she will take a little dip in the pool to cool down. She is a beautiful Pointer mix and will make a great family dog. Come and meet Dee at our shelter.
