Carlee seeks loving family to call her own!


Carlee is a five month old black and white lab mix who was abandoned in a
local neighborhood along with her sisters, Lucy and Penny.  They were only 8
weeks old when the were tossed over a fence in someone's backyard.  Their
sad and mournful cries kept them from drowning in the pool when the owner of
the house heard them before they could fall in.

Carlee has been living in a foster home with a three year old child and
other pets. She gets along great with dogs and cats and will make a
fantastic family pet. She is house trained, crate trained, leash trained and
simple command trained too.  She is energetic since she is still a puppy and
would be happiest in a home where someone is home more than not and has fun
of activities planned for her.  Carlee will grow to be a medium to large dog
(our guess on weight is about 45-50 pounds when full grown).

Take Me Home Pet Rescue works very hard to be sure the pets are placed in
loving forever homes. We prefer homes where there is an adult home at least
half the day so that the puppy will not be required to stay in a crate for
long periods or be left in a back yard unsupervised as this makes for an
unhappy puppy and owner. 

For more information and to request a Puppy Application email
info@takemehomepetrescue.com.  We require a completed application, home
visit and $200.00 adoption fee that covers her spay,  all puppy
vaccinations, worming, flea treatment and microchipping.  There is no
guarantee that a pet will be adopted to any one person simply because they
have submitted an application.  We want a long happy relationship and strive
to be sure that both pet and person are a good match for each other.

Another momma dog dumped, this time in the country with 3 pups!

We all know how much dogs typically love car rides, well imagine the case when these 4 dogs jumped in the car to go for a ride out to the country only to then have their person drop them off, drive away and never look back?!  Well, sadly that's what happened to Madeline and her 3 pups.  The good news is that they're safe now, TMHPR took them in and we're fostering them and they are now ready for adoption.

Madeline is approximately 5 years old and is a very sweet German Shepherd mix who is looking for a forever family that will appreciate her for the wonderful dog that she is!  She's house-trained, walks great on the leash and just likes to lounge around in the house, she's a pretty low maintenance dog and will make a great companion.

Madeline
Hershey

Hershey is one of her pups and was featured in a previous post so please check that for more information.  The other 2 pups are named Jack and Sampson.  Jack looks a lot like his mom and Sampson almost looks like he could have hound or husky in him (he likes to talk to you), these are just good all-around dogs so please check them out and contact us if you'd like more information.  These dogs deserve a second-chance and would love to be part of a loving family!  Please contact us if you'd like more information on fostering or adopting one of these great dogs by emailing us at info@takemehomepetrescue.com. Thanks!
Jack

 Sampson-beautiful eyes!

Jack

Sampson
Jack and Sampson are both very smart and eager to please. They enjoy learning new tricks and playing with each other as they are in the same foster home together.  They both are crate trained,  almost house
trained and leash trained. Jack and Sampson get along great with kids, cats and other dogs and will make a fantastic family pet.

We are looking for a home for each dog where someone is home more than not so they can spend time with him and appreciate him for who he is (they can be adopted separately). They both love to investigate the bushes and trees in the yard and play in water in the baby pool. They also love to play with his dog toys and the squeaky ones are favorites.   For more information on adopting Jack or Sampson, and to request a Puppy Application email info@takemehomepetrescue.com.  We require a completed application, home visit and $200.00 adoption fee that covers his neuter, all puppy vaccinations, worming, flea treatment and microchipping.

There is no guarantee that a pet will be adopted to any one person because they have submitted an application.  We want a long happy relationship and strive to be sure that both pet and person are a good match for each other.

Do you have a Tiny Heinie?

We do, and he needs a good home! 

Heinrich is looking snazzy!
Heinrich, aka "Tiny Heinie" is an approximately one-year old, male Chihuahua.  He was found dodging cars on Beltline Road in Garland on a Sunday morning; caught only after he became too tired to continue to run.

Tiny Heinie was a befitting name as he was rescued with the bones visible on his back and ribs.  He is now a plump, soft, sweet little fellow looking for a cuddle companion to rub his tummy and keep warm.  He will do well in a home without children; but, gets along well with small dogs and loves to play chase.  He is neutered, microchipped and up-to-date on his vaccinations.  Please contact us for more information on adopting Heinrich by emailing us at info@takemehomepetrescue.com.  Thanks!

How can you resist this face? Chloe seeks a wonderful family to call her own! GOOD NEWS-Chloe has been ADOPTED!

Chloe

Chloe is approximately four-months old, and may be a full-blooded Lab, though her vet can't tell for sure since she was a stray found wandering in Garland.  Thank goodness a good samaritan took her in and is fostering her, sweet Chloe is a very lucky pup!  We've now gotten her all cleaned up, vetted and even dressed up so now she just needs somewhere to go!  Are you the right forever family for her?

Chloe is very smart, learns quickly, is eager to please, loves to go on long walks and play in her small plastic pool in the backyard.  She likes older children, other dogs and even kittens!  Chase and fetch are two of her favorite games.  Dr. Neeman belives she will grow to be a large dog.  She has been spayed, microchipped and is current on her shots.

Chloe needs a family to play fetch with her!
If you're looking for a devoted companion and walking partner, please consider giving Chloe her forever home.  She'll make a great addition to a very lucky family!  Email us at info@takemehomepetrescue.com for more information.  Thanks!
