Peachy
Available Since: November 23, 2025
Breed: Corgi Mix
Age: Young
Description: Peachy is a young, small, and sassy Corgi mix with the funniest little attitude and the cutest wiggle butt. When Smith County Animal Control & Shelter asked if we could help her, we didn’t hesitate. She arrived covered in raw, painful scabs and clearly in need of immediate medical attention. Veterinary exams revealed just how much this tiny girl was fighting: hookworms, roundworms, coccidia, Demodex mange, and even road rash! After months of tender care, Peachy is now fully healed and as healthy as can be. Her tough days are behind her, and her true personality has blossomed. Peachy loves digging through the toy box, playing with her doggy friends, then settling in for cuddles and TV time.

Sweet Girl
Available Since: June 29, 2025
Breed: Mixed Breed
Age: Adult
Description: Sweet Girl was dumped on the side of a busy highway, suffering from demodex mange and covered in fleas and ticks. After receiving much-needed veterinary care, she began her recovery in a foster home. Sweet Girl even made a TV appearance, and she was a total rockstar during her interview! Sadly, shortly after her big debut, her original foster left her behind at the station… We truly don’t understand how this lovely girl keeps getting left behind. Here’s what her current foster mom says: “Sweet Girl is a total cuddle monster. She loves being pet, snuggling with her blankies, chewing her bones, and playing with her doggy friends. She’s potty trained, kennel trained, and enjoys being outside. She’s very photogenic and craves companionship. She has some boo boos, but she’s healing beautifully and isn’t the least bit scary, just energetic and affectionate.”
