Betty, Labrador retriever

Betty is a sweet female Labrador retriever dog being kept at SNIPSA Inc.

Betty gets along well with other dogs. Her ideal forever home would be a cat-free environment. She has been vaccinated and spayed. No need to worry: She's already house-trained.

From Betty's current caretaker:

Betty would love to go on an adventure with you. She’ll walk right beside you and wag her tail as she meets new people. She loves walking around the River Walk and curiously follows the sound of the water. Betty knows “sit” and “shake” and this smart girl is wanting to learn more! Toys are her favorite and she’ll play fetch all day long.

Belle is happy and full of love. This bulldog will chase you down until she gets a nice pat on the head and if you give her a belly rub, Belle never leave your side! Belle gets along with all dogs and cats and is always sweet to every person she encounters.

Eliza, chihuahua

Eliza is a female chihuahua dog in the care of SNIPSA Inc.

Eliza is a social butterfly — she gets along well with cats, dogs and kids. She has mastered her house-training etiquette. She is spayed, and she has had all her shots.

Eliza's current caretakers say:

Eliza has nothing but love to give. She is great with humans of all ages, dogs of all sizes and has no problem sharing her space with a cat. If you’re looking for that loving lap dog, Eliza is your girl. This blonde beauty enjoys going for walks through the neighborhood and can tag along anywhere with you as she is always on her best behavior. Believe it or not, we have found a chihuahua who has yet to make a “yip yip”.

Holly is very treat motivated and easy to train and she would make a great addition to your family!

Molly, Australian shepherd and Jack Russell terrier mix

Molly is a lovable female Australian shepherd and Jack Russell terrier mix in the care of SNIPSA Inc.

Molly gets along well with other dogs. Her ideal forever home would be a cat-free environment. SNIPSA Inc., however, recommends she be placed in a home without small children. She's been vaccinated and spayed.

Molly's current caretakers say:

Molly is very active, toy-driven and craves stimulation. With her stamina and outgoing personality, Molly is always ready for a fun adventure! This little fluff loves humans and would make a great family dog but would probably do better with a family without small children as this spunky girl, typical to her breeds, loves to herd.
