Black-and-white heartthrob with a show-stopping set of ears, toy enthusiast, and full-body, goofy wiggle machine… this is Wishbone! Equal parts athlete and goofball, he’s the kind of dog who can easily turn a boring day into a fun-filled adventure. He’s bright, attentive, and so ready to learn that “trainer’s dream” feels less like a compliment and more like a preview of what’s coming next.
Before you fall too hard, go catch him in motion on YouTube… then come right back for the details on this high-flying, toy-adoring superstar in the making.

Wishbone is estimated to be just over a year old and appears to be a Pittie/American bully mix, though as always with rescue, breed, and birthday are our best guess. What matters here is that he is the perfect size. Beefcake in spirit but not in form- he is built like a true athlete and would be the envy of any gym if he were a person. He is full grown and pounds, so he barely takes up a full cushion on the couch. No extra space needed because he can scooch right in without anyone even having to scoot over.
What does Wishbone Love? Well… zoomin’ in the sunshine and then laying in the shade. Give him a chance to stretch his legs, show off with that initial zoomie, and then you promptly get a dog who wants to roll around in the grass with his belly to the sky. The energy melts into a dog who can settle, hang out, and take in the world around him. He’s not looking to be glued to your side every second. He’s confident, self-assured, and perfectly content entertaining himself with a toy… as long as you keep the toy supply well stocked and the snack budget approved. Speaking of toys… this boy is all in. Toss it, bounce it, squeak it, launch it… he’s ready. If you’ve ever dreamed of a running partner, a dream training buddy, or a future flyball all-star, Wishbone is already halfway to the starting line just waiting for his person to say “go.”
He is a big personality with a playful style to match, which means he’ll thrive with an owner who enjoys structure, consistency, and channeling that enthusiasm into something fun and rewarding. He’s smart, eager, and full of potential… the kind of dog who makes training feel less like work and more like a shared hobby.
With other dogs, Wishbone brings a party-ready play style. He does best with dogs who enjoy that same rough-and-rowdy energy and can match his enthusiasm. Think confident, playful companions who won’t be overwhelmed by his fun-loving nature.
At home, he’s learning the art of balance. He’s already shown that once he gets his burst of energy out, he can settle, and with continued guidance, routine, and outlets for both his brain and body, that off-switch only gets better and better. He’s the kind of dog who just needs a clear roadmap… and then he’s off, happily following it.
Wishbone is best suited for a home that can give him space to move, play, and thrive, along with the kind of leadership that helps him continue to grow into the incredible dog he’s clearly meant to be.
If you’ve been looking for a dog who brings energy, personality, humor, and a whole lot of potential to the table… Wishbone is ready to stick by your side.

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.
