Weller, Weimaraner mix
Weller is a winsome male Weimaraner mix in the care of Weimaraner Rescue of Texas.
Weller is a social animal — he gets along well with kids, cats or dogs. Good news: He's already house-trained, vaccinated and neutered.
Meet Weller:
Hi, my name is Weller! I am a seven-month-old, potty-trained Weimaraner mix puppy. I would do best in a home with a dog door, as I do not love the idea of a crate. I also would love to have a home with another puppy friend that is my size to play with.

Gracie, collie and Australian shepherd mix
Gracie is a cheeky female collie and Australian shepherd mix staying at DASH Dog Rescue.
Gracie is happy to keep company with kids, dogs or cats. Fear not: She is already house-trained, vaccinated and spayed.
Here's what Gracie's friends at DASH Dog Rescue think of her:
Gracie is a loving and loyal petite collie, wheaten and Aussie mix who is longing for a calm, mature home. She wants to be somebody's baby. Gracie is as active as you want her to be — she doesn't demand attention or play-time, which is why she needs a home where she is confident enough to come to the sofa or onto the bed to get petted and cuddled. She is shy at first, then warms up quickly!

More about Thor:
My name is Thor. I weigh 70 pounds, but sometimes I forget how big I am, because I am a puppy at heart and happy-go-lucky. I make fast friends and I love everyone. What I love the most is attention and lots of pats! I would be happy in a home where anyone loves me and shows it.
