Marley is going to grow into an amazing family dog. He has the temperament, the friendliness, and the joyful nature that make him such a wonderful companion. He would do well in a home that is ready to include him in daily walks, playtime, training, and plenty of affection. He wants to be part of it all, and he will give that same energy and love right back.

Of course, Marley is still a young puppy, and with that comes responsibility. He will need training, structure, and patience as he learns how to navigate the world. Puppies require time, consistency, and a commitment to helping them grow into well-mannered, happy adult dogs. But Marley is the kind of pup who makes all of that feel rewarding every little milestone will feel like a celebration.

If you're looking for a dog who brings joy, laughter, and unconditional love into your life, Marley is ready to be that dog for you. Hes not just adorable he's the start of a lifelong bond, a best friend who will grow with you and be by your side through it all.

At our 2-acre Texas based property, we assess every animal with trainers on staff, we modify behavior as needed, and create individualized behavior plans to help prepare dogs for their future families including crate training, potty training, leash walking, etc. Our fosters are able to attend group training and socialization play groups helping them stay confident, well rounded, and adoption ready. Our on-site trainers are dedicated to each dogs growth, and we enjoy seeing their progress!

We go above and beyond to ensure every animal receives exceptional care. Veterinarians consistently praise our medical standards. From routine care to advanced treatments, each dog receives personalized attention. Hard costs for a healthy dog range from $804-$920; heartworm-positive dogs or those needing specialized care can exceed $2,000+. Adoption fees help cover a portion of these expenses, but without government funding, we rely on fundraising to bridge the gap ranging from $100 - $1,000+ per dog.

Our adoption fees reflect the extensive care and resources that go into each animal we save. The adoption fee is a donation to the mission and goes far beyond getting a fully vetted pet.
