Phoenix knows how to party!
This sweet boy, rescued from a heartbreaking hoarding situation and fire back in April, got to help his foster brothers celebrate their birthdays yesterday — and let’s just say, he loved every second (especially the cake! 🍰).

It’s amazing to see how far Phoenix has come. From surviving tragedy to soaking up joy, he reminds us just how resilient and full of love these dogs are.

See below to see his excitement — because cake tastes even sweeter when you’ve fought so hard for your happy ending.

Okay, hear us out… We decided to model. Why? Because we want you to see exactly how fabulous we’ll look on your wall, your phone, your holiday cards — basically, everywhere you post pics of your new family member.

We gave you drama. We gave you wet nose realness. We gave you “I belong in a black-and-white art gallery, but also curled up on your couch” energy.

Picture this:
✅ These faces greeting you at the door after a long day.
✅ These eyes looking at you like you hung the moon (or at least like you might share snacks).
✅ These pics framed in your home because we’re not just pets — we’re family.

We’re single. We’re ready to mingle. And we’re just waiting for that special human who’ll stop scrolling and start falling in love.

Adopt the love. Adopt the loyalty. Adopt us.

Are you ready for a crazy incredible doggy rescue story?

You have probably seen one of our many posts about Snickerdoodle/Lacy the past 8 months. She came to us via one of our board members family who found her on the streets of Lubbock last winter. She had been posted as a stray that someone had locked in a dog park and reached out to social media for help. Word was that she belonged to an unhoused gentleman that was taken to jail and had nowhere to go. This family member raced to get her off the street and out of the bad weather but had nowhere to keep her. That’s where we came in. She had two fosters while she was here and needed a LOT of training. Between both foster families she was house, leash and crate trained. While she is the sweetest dog that loves ALL other dogs, she is constantly busy. Imagine a 55 pound puppy…all. the. time! Rescues up North are completely saturated with dogs, making it almost impossible to get medium/large dogs a spot. Her second foster (who renamed her Lacy) reached out to over 60 rescues over a span of 4 months trying to find her the perfect spot. The more comfortable she became….the more bonded she was with her humans and fellow pack mates. She started “herding” everyone and you can just imagine the chagrin of the German Shepherd pack members she was hanging out with! 😅 Sometimes in rescue, if you find a certain “type or breed” of dog, you can focus on that niche ….so we figured….”what the heck…let’s DNA test her and see what kind of cattle dog she is!” Well, we had ZERO Cattle dog and half GSD/half American Pit Bull Terrier. But that wasn’t the cool part, Embark also tells you if your dog has blood relatives out there. Well, Lacy has 29 GSD cousins out there and one BROTHER. It also gives you the opportunity to reach out to their siblings humans …..and her foster did just that. We were really excited to find out more of Lacy’s story through her brother. Well, they found out her brother lives in Colorado and was adopted as a puppy through a Colorado rescue. Pictures were shared and it’s obvious they are siblings. Zuko (brother) has the exact same mannerisms and traits but weighs about 30 pounds more than Lacy. How he got to Colorado (or how Lacy got to Lubbock) remains a mystery. But Zuko’s humans had been considering getting him a new doggy friend and they instantly fell in love with Lacy. So a week later they made the 10 hour drive to Midland so the two siblings could meet and see if they would hit it off. Boy did they!!! It’s like they had known each other their whole lives. Needless to say, it was a match made in Lacy/Zuko heaven. Lacy now known as Jinx is living her best life in Colorado with her brother and new family. She is so happy in the cooler weather and is being trained to love her kitty sibling too. We would have never known this sweet girl had a whole new family out there without a DNA test! We are excited to say “Happy Tales Sweet Girl!” We wish you the best with your furever family. 🐾 🐕 🐾

Walks with Whim and Quasi are never quiet, never calm, and never boring. One’s trying to run a marathon, the other’s trying to flirt with the wind — and their foster is just out here holding on for dear life like their unpaid Uber driver.

But in between the chaos, the zig-zags, and the squirrel chases, there’s so much love. These two have the kind of bond that makes you believe in soulmates — even if they sometimes use that energy to drag their foster through every patch of grass in the neighborhood.

These are couch cuddlers, shadow-followers, a daily dose of “what now??” And they’re still looking for their forever home.

It won’t be perfect — it’ll be messy, loud, and full of zoomies — but it’ll be real. And it’ll be so full of love you won’t remember what life was like before them.

If you’re looking for loyal, goofy, big-hearted adventure buddies, Whim and Quasi are ready.

BREAKING NEWS: There’s a blue-eyed baby deer pretending to be a dog and his name is Quasi.

He’s got legs for days and no idea what to do with them. This lanky boy moves like he’s still figuring out how gravity works—but he will use those noodles to climb directly into your lap like an oversized, floppy newborn.

Since he was a pup, Quasi has claimed one throne in life: sitting on his brother Whim. Whether Whim is lying down, standing, or minding his business—Quasi is on him. It’s love. It’s dominance. It’s weird. But we support it.

He plays fetch, sure—but only until Whim inevitably wins the race to the ball. Then Quasi makes the real power move: he turns around, heads back to you, and demands affection like a professional snuggler.

✨ Quasi Facts:
• Legs: Too long
• Coordination: Optional
• Eyes: Hypnotic
• Shedding: Minimal
• Vibes: Soft, soulful, dramatic
• Favorite pastime: Being held like a baby, lounging on his brother
• Favorite person: Whoever has treats or hands
• Best friend: Whim (built-in cuddle buddy, emotional support chaos)

Quasi is available for adoption (with or without Whim), but don’t be surprised if you end up adopting both. Because once he looks at you with those ocean eyes and floppy limbs, you’re done for.

ADOPT THIS CHAOTIC ANGEL: WHIM
(And his ridiculously handsome brother, Quasi)

Are you emotionally stable enough to handle the most uncoordinated cuddlebug this world has ever seen? Meet Whim – he looks like a fun-sized German Shepherd, sheds like a full-sized one, and moves like he’s buffering in real life.

Whim cannot walk or run in a straight line. Ever. He zigzags like your last situationship—but unlike that, he will bounce straight into your heart and STAY there. He loves fetch (returning the ball is optional), snacks, and pretending to be a lap dog despite being the size of a mid-sized suitcase.

He’s also a world-class snuggler and professional little spoon. Especially when he’s curled up next to his brother Quasi, the blue-eyed drama king with main character energy.

These two are a package deal in spirit but can be adopted separately (as long as you’re ready to be emotionally adopted by Whim the moment he sees you).

💥 Likes:
✅ Treats
✅ Cuddles
✅ Trying to climb into your lap
✅ Being a little spoon
✅ Playing fetch-ish
✅His best friend/brother Quasi

💥 Dislikes:
❌ Straight lines
❌ Personal space
❌ You not adopting him

Currently living their best foster life, but they’re ready for a forever home (or two!). If you’re ready to love a dog who walks like he just got off a tilt-a-whirl but loves like it’s his full-time job—Whim is your guy.

Apply now before he bounces into someone else’s arms. Literally.

🐾 Happy National Dog Rescue Day! 🐾
Today, we celebrate the second chances, the tail wags, the transformations, and the unconditional love that rescue dogs bring into our lives.

Every dog in our care has a story—some heartbreaking, some hopeful—but all are deserving of love, safety, and a forever home.
From the shy pups who learn to trust again, to the playful ones who remind us to enjoy the little things—they rescue us right back.

Whether you foster, adopt, volunteer, donate, or simply share their stories—you’re part of the rescue. Thank you for being the reason these incredible souls get a fresh start.

✨Spotlight Saturday

From frightened to almost fearless! Meet Sadie, one of the brave Chihuahua girls rescued from the recent hoarding case.
She’s still working on finding her confidence, so she prefers to peek out from behind the curtain and watch the world from a safe spot.

Beside her is Pixie, a proud PBAA alum who knows what it’s like to be scared—and how amazing a second chance can feel. Pixie’s calm presence is showing Sadie that couches are comfy, treats are plentiful, and gentle humans are worth trusting.

Every day we catch Sadie inching a little closer, her tiny tail giving the slightest wag. Moments like this—two former “terrified girls” sharing the same room without fear—remind us why fostering saves lives.

It’s a big day for our sweet little fighter Opal! It’s SPAY DAY!

It’s finally time this girl finish’s off the last of her vetting and will be adoption ready!

If you remember Opal she was found after being hit by a car and had to have a back leg and her tail amputated back in February. She also had a broken pelvis on the “good” back leg and a few other minor injuries she’s worked hard to over come. She’s fully healed and doing amazing so she was cleared for surgery.

We are hoping our wonderful community will help us raise about $200 which covers her spay surgery, last vaccinations and microchip.
