Adoption

June ARPH #14376

TX

June is a 5yo, 45lb, fully-vetted spayed female that is house-broken and crate-trained. Her future home will be someone that is home more often than not... such as a retired person, or someone who works from home. She was initially adopted out from our organization and then returned 2 years later due to the development of storm anxiety. June takes a daily (cheap) medication to help with keeping her anxiety at bay, and she does great with this. She also has a special, sturdy crate that she stays in during thunderstorms. It helps her to feel safe and secure, and she actually really likes it.

June can run like the wind, and she enjoys the large backyard at her foster home. She loves playing with toys by herself at times and will play fetch. She also has a fun-loving playful spirit that will keep you laughing and entertained. With other dogs, June prefers older, mellow, male canine counterparts. She would likely prefer being the only dog to get all the attention and spoiling for herself!

In addition, June was not treated well by a man who was part of her early life experience, but she has done very well bonding to men that volunteer for the rescue. She will bond with her new owner in the same way she has bonded and adores her foster parents.

She will need an active household and possibly a training activity where she can excel and learn. Belly rubs, cuddling and pets are always welcome. She will offer an Aussie smile too when she is excited and wants a hello hug. June deserves her FINAL forever home. Could that be you?

June is located in Sanger, TX and it is required that you travel there to meet her in person within 10 days of application approval if you want to adopt. We do need the entire party to be involved when meeting available dogs, including every family member and dog(s) that currently live in your home.

If you are an approved ARPH adopter with a current application on file and interested in learning more about June please contact Laura at [email protected]. If you are interested in becoming an approved ARPH adopter, please submit an adoption application.

Sterling ARPH #14693

TX

Sterling is ready for his forever home.

He has springs in his feet and curls into a circle when excited/happy. He loves being outside, no thunderstorm anxiety, enjoys scritches and belly rubs, sleeps quietly in a kennel, no marking in the house, and will keep your lap warm any chance he gets.

He and his foster brother are enjoying chasing each other in the backyard and hunting for lizards (If someone is looking for a dog to do barn hunt this could be your guy.)

Rides in the car quietly. No carsickness.

He would love to be in your lap or resting his head on your leg any chance he gets. ❤️

Overall a nice boy who would probably prefer to be an only dog again so he gets all the attention.

Laverne ARPH #14685

TX

Laverne is a 6yo Red Tricolor female Australian Shepherd that was surrendered to our organization (along with Shirley) after her owner passed away and she lost her family. It is clear that these girls were very loved!

Laverne is housebroken, crate trained, and gets along with adults, children, dogs, and cats. She also rides well in the car!

Kiwi ARPH #14640

TX

Kiwi is a stunning 8-month-old double merle Australian Shepherd with a sweet soul and a heart full of love. This girl may have a hearing impairment and some vision issues but that doesn’t slow her down one bit—she is curious, affectionate, and eager to bond with her people.

Kiwi thrives on love and attention and adores cuddle time. She is crate trained but really prefers to be part of whatever is going on in the household. Whether she is lounging at your feet, snuggling next to you on the sofa watching TV, or following you around the house, Kiwi is happiest when she is near her humans.

She gets along well with other dogs, can be vocal when playing a rousing game of chase or “bitey face”, and has plenty of energy for walks but also takes plenty of naps. She is a nice medium energy girl who has never met a stranger and will wiggle her way right into your heart.

While training is a little more challenging due to her hearing impairment, she can see movement so she is learning some training hand signals. She also wears a vibration collar (that will come with her to her forever home) to let her know to look at or come to her foster mom. She would do best in a calm, patient home that understands her needs and will continue her training journey.

She travels well in a car…no carsickness…but does expect you to hand over a treat every now and then while traveling. She loves going for walks where she gets to sniff to her heart’s content. So most walks can be slow and steady not a race to the finish.

Kiwi is spayed, heartworm negative, up-to-date on vaccinations and ready for a forever family that will cherish her uniqueness.

Could you be the one to give this special girl the loving home she deserves?

Kiwi is located in Bedford, TX and it is required that you travel there to meet her in person within 10 days of application approval if you want to adopt.

Rojo ARPH #14696

TX

This stunning boy is named Rojo, and he’s looking for a soft place to land.

Rojo’s life before he came to ARPH is unknown. He was picked up as a stray in Oklahoma by animal control before they transferred him to a high-volume partner here in North Texas. It was here that a kind volunteer felt a soft spot for him and pulled him out of the shelter, taking care of him until he could be handed over to us.

Rojo is approximately 1.5 years old, 40lbs, house-trained, crate-trained, and fully vetted. He is a gentler fellow that needs consistency and stability. When he first arrived in foster care, he was a bit skittish and shy… even too shy to eat. However, once he knew the routine and felt safe, he warmed up and became really happy and content.

Rojo is fabulous with all other dogs, and would greatly benefit from another dog in the home that can help show him the ropes. He has done well in many different settings, including the vet, a pet bar, and a doggy daycare. He is a calmer, very quiet boy that really loves to stay near his people. While we have never seen him around young children, we figure that they might be a little too much for him. However, he is perfectly fine with cats!

Rojo is very unassuming, and very much wants to please. Once he opens up, he has a very cute and endearing personality. He loves to give kisses and really likes it when you tell him what a good boy he is. When re-assured, he even smiles! He is great with baths and grooming, and loves to roll around on the towel.

Overall, Rojo would do really well with a person or couple that are seeking calm companionship and perhaps a friend for their current dog. With a little time and experience under his belt, Rojo will flourish.

Rojo is located in Lubbock, TX and it is required that you travel there to meet him in person within 10 days of application approval if you want to adopt. We do need the entire party to be involved when meeting available dogs, including every family member and dog(s) that currently live in your home.

If you are an approved ARPH adopter with a current application on file and interested in learning more about Rojo please contact Laura at [email protected]. If you are interested in becoming an approved ARPH adopter, please submit an adoption application.

Conway ARPH #14691

TX

If you are looking for a dog that wants to please you Conway is your boy. He is an active 2-year-old who loves to play ball and is great at entertaining himself with his toys. He loves to go on walks and is super on the leash. He is learning heel and doing great.

He is nonreactive to people, dogs and birds on his walks. He may bellow bark if he gets startled but calms quickly. He does well while you are lunching on a restaurant patio or relaxing at a winery. He is quick to jump in the car and get harnessed in for a ride. Excellent car rider.

He loves his kennel and is house trained (dog door too). Conway is a quick learner and is quite the observer. He learned shake and high five just by watching his foster brother. He is wonderful with dogs and kids. Conway watches tv and is very vocal if an animal appears.

He has made major progress on watching tv quietly. He loves his name and responds quickly to it.

If there was one word to describe Conway it would be gem.

He is a true gem and would be an amazing addition to an active family!
