Meet Wilma, the squishy soul who is ready to waddle her way right into your heart! This velvety girl is a master of the puppy dog gaze and is looking for a partner to lead the way.
If you’re looking for a girl who is as sweet as a marshmallow and twice as soft, Wilma is your lady. She is a sensitive, gentle soul who thrives on soft words and kind gestures. While she might start off a little shy, watching her blossom is like seeing a flower bloom in fast forward once she knows she’s safe, she is all about the love!
Wait until you see those velvet ears in motion!

Wilma is the ultimate hang out dog. She isn't looking to run a marathon; she’d much rather be your silent partner in crime while you fold laundry or catch up on your favorite shows. She preferrs to stay close to her humans where it’s warm and safe. Whether you’re a homebody or a casual stroller, Wilma is just happy to be included in the plans!
What’s in a breed? With rescues, it’s always a fun guessing game, but we think our girl is a classic Pitbull mix! Wilma sports that iconic, adorable squishy girlie look complete with a velvety coat and those soulful eyes that we just can't get enough of. She’s that just right size for someone who wants a big hearted dog without needing a giant SUV to transport her!
Wilma is currently living the dream in a loving foster home and proving she is a total natural at being a pampered pet! She is a polite lady who is already crate trained and house trained, making her transition into her forever home a total breeze. She has shown us that she is wonderful with kiddos, responding to them with a gentle hand and a wagging tail. She’s the kind of girl who just wants to do the right thing; she just needs a patient person to show her the way (and maybe a few treats for her hard work!).
When it comes to other dogs let’s talk about what Wilma needs to succeed because yes, she’s adorable, but there’s more to her than that smooshy face! Wilma is a lady with a refined social circle and prefers to choose her friends thoughtfully. In the right setting, with proper introductions and a calm environment, she can absolutely enjoy the company of other dogs. In fact, Wilma is currently living with a male dog in her foster home, and the two coexist beautifully even riding together in the car like seasoned travel buddies. Other situations can look a little different like passing a dog in a tight space, spotting one across the street, or unexpected close encounters on leash. That’s when Wilma can get a bit overwhelmed and forget her best manners. She may become focused, pull toward the other dog, or need extra guidance to stay on track. She isn’t looking to cause trouble, she just needs help navigating those moments and understanding what’s expected of her. Wilma will thrive with a confident handler who can provide structure, consistency, and clear direction. With the right support, she has all the potential to keep building her skills and show just how lovely of a companion she can be.
Wilma met a feline friend and, well, let’s just say she was very fascinated! She didn't give chase, but she seems to think cats are just very small, funny looking dogs that deserve a lot of her attention. We believe she is willing to share her kingdom with a kitty, but she will have a kitty sleepover as a trial run to ensure they can officially become the bestest of buds!
The best spot for Wilma? She is looking for a home with a nice, secure yard where she can stretch her legs and sniff the grass in peace! Since she’s a sensitive soul who is still perfecting her leash walking, having her own private outdoor space will help her feel like the confident queen she is meant to be. She’s a quiet, observant girl who just wants a soft place to land and a human to tell her she’s the best girl in the world (she absolutely is).
In short, Wilma is a squishy, affectionate treasure who is just waiting for the right person to unlock her full potential. She is gentle, smart, and has a heart of gold.

https://g.co/kgs/UQ5Pyai We care deeply about creating lasting matches between dog and family for long term success, and take the time to ensure each adoption is a fit through our matchmaking process.
At our 2 acre Texas based property, we assess every animal with trainers on staff, we modify behavior as needed, and create individualized behavior plans to help prepare dogs for their future families including crate training, potty training, leash walking, etc. Our fosters are able to attend group training and socialization play groups helping them stay confident, well rounded, and adoption-ready. Our on-site trainers are dedicated to each dog’s growth and we enjoy seeing their progress!
We go above and beyond to ensure every animal receives exceptional care. Veterinarians consistently praise our medical standards. From routine care to advanced treatments, each dog receives personalized attention. Hard costs for a healthy dog range from $804-$920; heartworm-positive dogs or those needing specialized care can exceed $2,000+. Adoption fees help cover a portion of these expenses, but without government funding, we rely on fundraising to bridge the gap—ranging from $100–$1,000+ per dog.
Our adoption fees reflect the extensive care and resources that go into each animal we save. The adoption fee is a donation to the mission and goes far beyond getting a fully vetted pet.
