Charlie Barkley, Labrador retriever mix

Have no fear: He's already house-trained. Charlie Barkley is already neutered, and he has had all his shots.

Notes from Charlie Barkley's caretakers:

Charlie Barkley would make a wonderful family dog. He's housetrained, gets along well with other dogs, knows the command "sit," and is really manageable on a leash. He doesn't jump up on people, so this may make him a good candidate for a family with children.

Soria, Jack Russell terrier mix

Soria is an adorable female Jack Russell terrier mix staying at Animal Rescue League of El Paso.

Soria gets along well with other dogs. She's already vaccinated and spayed.

Notes from Soria's caretakers:

Well this little girl has kind of been bounced around. She is mostly Jack Russell and true to form she can scale a six-foot wall and climb trees. So she needs a stable home life with a secure outside area to feel like she belongs. Not good on a farm, good with other dogs but not other animals. She just needs a family to feel safe with and have boundaries to make her feel secure.

Porter, Yorkshire terrier mix

Porter is a lovable male Yorkshire terrier mix in the care of Animal Rescue League of El Paso.

Porter will get along great with your other dogs. He's neutered, and he has had all his shots.

From Porter's current caretaker:

First we have to say, Porter's pictures are a little deceiving. ARL rescued him from a high kill shelter who had rescued him from a bad hoarding situation. He came in with his girlfriend with puppies, but not sure he's the daddy. He is still pretty scared doesn't trust too many people right now. But there is some promise and we never give up. He just may need more time and maybe another dog friend. He does well with having another friend. He so deserves that chance.
