Pet Rehoming

Pet rehoming is for individuals and rescue groups looking to help find a forever home for a pet. We appreciate the work of responsible Breeders, however, we wish this site to be free from Breeders' posts as we seek to find homes for pets that have been lost or abandoned vs. pets that were planned for profit. Thank you for understanding and respecting our Terms.

Ideally, a pet rehome fee will be much lower if a pet is not up-to-date on their shots and/or have not yet been spayed or neutered.

The first is a 1-2 years old spayed female. I rescued her from death row about 5 weeks ago. She's about 45 pounds, housebroken, and walks on a loose leash. She loves other dogs, and gets along with them well. She's affectionate and very sweet. She's white and tan, with lots of freckles on her body.

The second is a little boy, about 6-8 months old. I just rescued him from a gassing shelter, where he was on the urgent list. He's NOT neutered yet, but is UTD on shots. He has a back leg that's been broken, although it's since set, and the vet says that it causes him no pain. He has other signs of previous trauma, but is a sweet and loving little boy. He's catahoula mix, dappled black and brown, with one brown eye and one blue. Very pretty and unusual-looking.; ▶ Reply to This

She, her puppies, and the male I took in were abused and abandoned by their previous owner. She is active and loves other animals. She is NOT spayed and from their conditions I can be sure she needs her shots. The family that has her has dogs of their own and are being very selective with the puppies as everyone wants them, but no one is answering for the female. I live in a small apartment and cannot do two dogs there... The family is offering her for free as she needs a lot of TLC. She has some hairloss we think due to malnutrition and trying to keep the puppies up as well. She really needs a home. If you can, call me or text at 214-254-7933 or just answer to this. I have the male and have not seen any parasites as fleas or anything so I know she doesn't have them either.; ▶ Reply to This

I rescued this beautiful and sweet girl a few months ago. She is up to date on shots, been heart worm checked and free of the illness. She is scheduled to be spayed June 1. Her re homing fee will be the cost of the spaying ($50.00). She loves my furever boy, Brahma (whom I also rescued in 2005) and plays and plays with him and my daughter's three dogs. I want her to be in the best home ever. She is very loving and friendly to all humans. She gets on well with other dogs once introduced. In our home, she is territorial at first to new dogs, but warms up once she is redirected with time out. I must find her the best home ever before October. Thanks for considering Greta.

I need to find that special forever home for my 2 sweet kitties!!! Elsie is a grey tabby who is approximately 7 years old. We rescued she and her brothers and sister after it appeared that they had lost their mother. Elsie is so sweet, loves to cuddle, and has a very fun and mischievous personality!!. She has been spayed and declawed. The vet and I decided that she did not need yearly vaccinations since she has NEVER been outside. The new owner must agree to continue not letting her go outside as she would be helpless without any claws to protect herself. Her sister, Athena, but we call her Tina has to be the fattest cat ever!!!LOL Believe it or not, she was the runt of the litter. I also wonder if she isn't a little slow in the brain or if she is actually extremely INTELLIGENT!!! She would be happy just sitting in someones lap continually with the occasional food break. However, be warned, your legs will go numb after just a little while!!LOL Tina is very stubborn. When she wants something she will annoy you until you give it to her. She also loves to cuddle and sleep with you. Literally, under the covers and her head on your pillow. She is a calico.

I would be open to placing them in 2 different homes if they were the right homes. My circumstances have become quite sad very fast and I really need to make sure my babies will be OK for the rest of their lives. Thank you for your time.

Our dog, Jade, a tan with white blaze on chest Shar Pei/Pit mix,has become too possessive and protective of us and gets very anxious with other people. She has never hurt anyone, but we are getting too "mature" to effectively handle her, so we need to find her another home. She warms up to new people after about a week of exposure to them and then becomes a 80 pound lap dog with them. She just needs an owner that is firm and loving. We will deliver her anywhere in Texas with her kennel. She is 4 years old, is spayed and has all her shots. Never been sick. She was trained by Roger Miles at Ponderosa Pet Ranch in Royse City, Texas in 2007 and responds well to "Sit, Stay, Down, Come commands and is house broken. We fear someone adopting her for the wrong reasons as she could possibly be trained in an entirely other direction. Plus we really dread putting her down just because we are unable handle her. Please help. if you can.

PS. We rescued a gentle Sharpei, "Lucky", after the serious tornado that hit Mena, AR last spring. He is easier for us to handle and extremely gentle, slow moving neutered playmate.; ▶ Reply to This

My husband and I will soon be relocating toverseas to take a job. Unfortunately, we cannot take our pets. We have two little dogs...Jake is a Chiweenie weighing 7 lbs., neutered, and 3 years old. Molly is a 3 year old female Rat Terrier, weighing 8 lbs. She has not been spayed and has never had puppies. They have been raised together, They are used to apartment life, and are rather scared of children. They are very cuddly and travel well in a car. They are housebroken. We dearly love our babies...adn it is breaking our hearts to let them go, so we will not rehome them separately, nor will we allow them to be adopted by a family with small children...a couple with older teens or a couple without children or a single person would be best. I could tell you so much more....but suffice it to say, we only want the best possible home for them.

I am looking to find a forever home for my senior Catahoula. He was always an "outside" dog until I moved a couple of years ago. He is now confined to a condo. I do take him on regular walks and down to the dog park but for him its not enough. I would really like for gim to be able to have a back yard again. My housing situation was only suppose to be temporary. However last year when we were suppose to we couldn't because of the economic downfall. Now I don;t know when I will have a back yard for him to run in and it's just not fair to him. He deserves better than this. If you want to give this old man a happy place to live out his years in please let me know.

I also have a mother cat that was a stray that we took in. I can not keep her we have found homes for all of her babies and need to find one for her. If anyone would like to give her a forever home please let me know. She seems very young. Shes healthy though. Wants to be loved on all the time.

He is around 50 lbs, so a medium-large dog. He is big loveable lug. He has kind of a checkered background... he was at the Denton Animal Shelter. They kept him longer than usual because he is so good with people, and he did well with the other dogs in the group setting. Then a local humane society took him for fostering. I had him for about two weeks then had to go out of town. I took him back to the humane society for them to put him with a temporary foster. When I returned, I discovered that the humane society had taken him back to the Denton Shelter. I was flabbergasted. The humane society said that he became aggressive with the dogs in the temp foster's home, and even the dogs with the humane society coordinator's home. So, they felt he was too aggressive for them to keep and took him back. I decided to take him out of the shelter (a kill shelter), and I've had him in my home ever since. He always got along well with my dog, so I didn't understand why this happened. But over a few more experiences with him and other dogs, I can see that he just needs to be introduced to them slowly and on neutral ground.

I feel that he will be good in an active home as an only dog, or at least slow introductions to resident dogs. He would probably do best with kids over 8. He is still puppy-ish, so he can mouth and nibble on you. He does well in the car, not bad on leash, doesn't like the crate much, and I've taught him a few commands while he's been here. One thing is he can be a barker when very excited. He also tries sometimes to make dashes out the door. I'd really love to find him a permanent home. I'm looking for a family that will really love him and put in the effort to work with him on his issues. There is a rehoming fee of $75. Please email me at kleannah@yahoo.com or call me - 940-594-3081. Thanks!; ▶ Reply to This

Permalink Reply by Kristina Mitchell on June 22, 2010 at 8:36am: We found a sweet American Bulldog mix on the railroad tracks near our home a while back. He is very loyal and loves snuggling on the couch! We've had him a while and we would keep him, but he isn't too sure about our 9 month old son. He's fine around older children and great with people he knows, but he is suspicious of strangers. He would make a great companion for a couple, a single person, or a family with older children who know how to interact appropriately with dogs (i.e., not try to crawl into the food bowl!)

He's house broken, neutered, and up-to-date on shots. About 55 lbs and probably around 3 years old. He's a really great dog and deserves a great home! Feel free to email with questions at kristinawhite182@yahoo.com; ▶ Reply to This

Permalink Reply by Nicole Anderson on June 29, 2010 at 9:19am: I have 4 year old cat's, 3 three month old kittens, and 4 five week old kittens that all need new homes. I've been trying to find forever homes for them in this area, but the people interested keep disappearing... :( I am willing to make a drive anywhere inside of Texas to make sure these animals have a great place to live and be taken care off. I am due to have a baby any day now, so the drive may have to wait a couple weeks...I would keep them all if I could, but I can't afford the proper care for them or the fines I'd get for having so many animals.

~ Bella ~ is a black tortoise shell that was rescued as a kitten about a year ago.
She has two black boy kittens and one tortoise shell female kitten. They're full of energy and have great personalities. All four of them get along well with the other cats and my two dogs. Ideally, they'd stay as a family but I know that's hard to find someone to take in one, much less four, cats at once.

~ Lillian and Gibbs ~ are a brother sister combo that was rescued about a year ago as kittens from under a shed. They're inseperatable and must be placed together. They don't even like being in seperate rooms for more then a few minutes at a time. Both are fixed. Both are white with orange striped tails and orange ears. Both get along well with the other cats and dogs in the house and are very loving animals.

~ Baby Girl ~ was found outside of a friends house. She's white with grey/brown spots full of stripes. She started with a great personality that slowly was being transformed into skittishness. After watching her loose a lot of weight over a couple of weeks, I caved in and brought her home to try to find a better place for her. Along with her loving personality being returned, she started putting on weight...which I thought was fabulous until she gave birth to a litter of four kittens. There's two grey striped kittens, one white kitten with large grey spots, and one white kitten with spots of grey and brownish colored stripes within them. They're almost weaned and we're working on the litter box training for them. The kittens are about 5 weeks old and Baby Girl looks to be about a year old. They all get along with the other cats and dogs, though Baby Girl took a few weeks to adjust to them.

If you're interested please give me a call at 254-238-7942. The only thing I ask in return is a repayment for buying a kitty kennel to have them travel in if I am driving to drop them off.; ▶ Reply to This
