Delilah was originally with some people who kept her in an apartment with little to no socialization. Then the apt manager would not allow her to stay. She has not been socialized with other dogs or people and she is timid and scared. We have worked with dogs like this many times before and have seen that with time and proper care and training she will probably come out of her shell and be a great family companion in no time at all. Puppies are very resilient and can learn very quickly given the time and attention they need. Puppies in general need lot of your time so be ready if you plan on considering adopting a puppy.

Her markings are striking with different colors of sable, red and black. She has a smooth and somewhat fluffy coat. She might be mixed with Australian shepherd since she has a stubby bobtail. She probably won't get over 50lbs but that is a great size to do obedience training or agility or just having a lap dog.

Update:
Delilah still would not approach our weekly volunteer dog walker today but did sneak up to give him a lick before running away. She now needs attention from others to get past her fears, but she is making great strides. Delilah could us a volunteer walker every day to help get past her fears and be ready for a forever home. Please consider coming out to take her for walks, grooming, or taking her along on an outing running errands. She really needs the socialization!

Please email or check back and see changed we post as we get to know her more. We have only had her in our rescue for 1-2 days of June 4, 2012.

Sweet and sassy stunning sable searching fun loving family to snuggle with. She was found roaming around looking for food in an HEB parking lot, after much searching no home was found so the finder contacted our group for help. She is being fostered there.

Good with children: so far yes, good with all people

She absolutely loves to fetch and play! She is such a sweet and happy dog, you can see her smiling now that she has a loving foster home and more attention lavished on her. She is energetic and likes all people thus far. She has been good on a leash and good eating food; that is wonderful since she spent time without consistent meals. We think she may not be too good with cats since she chases them but has not hurt any, she may just want to play and be curious. She plays well with other dogs and likes to rough house and chase. Even though she is acclimating well, still she seeks a forever place of her own - maybe with your family? But don't wait to put your application in on this gorgeous girl, she will go fast!

Won't Someone Adopt Samba

Samba is an adorable German Shepherd Mix puppy. He is about a year old and came to us along with his sister, Cha-Cha. Samba gets along great with other dogs and is having fun playing with his new friends in his foster home. He is neutered, crate trained, and working on his house training. Samba is ready to rock in roll into your life!

This blogger has personally spent time with Samba. He is an absolute joy to be around. Even with his canine friends romping about his focus was on me! So much personality!
