Adele
Available Since: January 29, 2026
Breed: Belgian Malinois
Age: Adult
Description: Adele is a young Belgian Malinois who is incredibly smart, deeply loyal, and very loved. She is easily one of the smartest dogs we’ve ever worked with and has an uncanny ability to figure things out. She can open doors, carabiners, and latches. Her intelligence is impressive and very true to her breed. She is the kind of dog who bonds hard with her people and takes her role as a protector seriously. Because of that, Adele truly needs to be the only dog in the home. Adele is more of a guardian than a laid back family pet. She will be completely devoted to her person and will love and protect them with everything she has. With people, she is affectionate, confident, and does well with children, she just doesn’t enjoy sharing her space with other dogs. She is very active and loves to play. Chasing a ball or frisbee is one of her favorite things, and she’s a big fan of swimming too. She has no problem putting on her life jacket and jumping into the pool. Adele is house trained, kennel trained, and fully potty trained. She does great for baths and is happiest chewing on her favorite bones. She is fully vetted and has had a preventative stomach tack, which speaks to just how athletic she is. Adele can easily clear 10 feet in the air. This girl is all about movement, purpose, and adventure. Adele is looking for an experienced, committed home that understands the Malinois breed and is excited about having a loyal, protective companion. In the right environment, she will be an incredible partner and a once in a lifetime dog.

Balu
Available Since: October 6, 2025
Breed: Blue Heeler Mix
Age: Adult
Description: Balu is a deaf 6 year old Blue Heeler mix with a heart of gold. When he was picked up by Smith County Animal Control & Shelter, he was protecting his two baby pups. Both of them deaf, just like him. That’s who Balu is. Loyal. Devoted. Fiercely loving. Balu loves people of all ages and is friendly with other dogs. His favorite things in life are going for walks, snuggling in bed, and happily chewing on his bones. Because Balu can’t hear, he will need an adopter who understands his unique needs. Someone patient and gentle who won’t startle him and who’s ready to embrace his different way of communicating. With the right person, Balu will be the most loyal and loving companion you could ask for.
Braveheart

Braveheart is a 2 year old Pyrador (Great Pyrenees/Labrador Retriever mix). He loves to cuddle, soaks up affection, and has the most gentle, laid back nature. He is friendly with other dogs and does well with children. For such a young guy, he has wonderful manners. He’s doing great with potty training and is walking confidently on a leash like a pro. He also enjoys chewing on his bones and snuggling into his blankets. A yard where he can stretch out in the sunshine and a few cozy spots to lounge would make him one happy dog!
Brock
Available Since: August 30, 2025
Breed: Mixed Breed
Age: Young
Description: When we found Brock, he and his brother (Bodhi) were trapped deep inside a collapsed drainage culvert; starving, weak, and being eaten alive by parasites. No one knows how long they’d been down there, but it was clear they had been fighting to stay alive for far too long. Brock loves every person he meets and gets along with other dogs. He is happiest when it’s time to play — especially if there’s a squeaky tennis ball involved — but he’s just as content to curl up nearby and keep you company. Brock is the kind of dog who fits effortlessly into your life and would make a wonderful low maintenance companion.
Bronx
Available Since: August 23, 2025
Breed: Rottweiler
Age: Adult
Description: Bronx is a cool, easygoing guy who loves being around people. He is kennel and potty trained, and walks well on a leash. Bronx has great manners but, true to his Rottweiler nature, he can sometimes be a little mischievous and stubborn. Bronx will do best with an experienced handler.
Buster Brown
Available Since: November 1, 2025
Breed: Mixed Breed

Description: Buster Brown’s story begins on a lonely county road, where he was found standing right in the middle with no understanding of the danger around him. Covered in fleas and ticks, and faithfully waiting for someone who was never coming back, this sweet boy had been dumped and left behind. Buster is a gentle dog with a quiet, observant nature. He loves to sit back and take in the world around him, always calm, always sweet. He is a total couch potato who believes the best place to be is wherever you are. At about 80 pounds, Buster Brown is a big boy with an even bigger heart. He melts for affection, adores attention, and is ready to give his whole heart to a family who will never leave him behind again.
