Professional Couch Potato. Amateur Stand-Up Comedian.
Worthy Cheyenne is a 1-year-old chocolate Lab mix with soft amber eyes, little white socks, and the kind of face that looks like she accidentally overheard some gossip and is trying not to react.
This girl is sweet in that deeply genuine, sneaks-up-on-you kind of way. She may take a couple minutes to scope things out when meeting someone new, but then suddenly she’s leaning against your legs like y’all have been paying taxes together for years. The warm-up period is brief. The loyalty? Immediate.
And honestly? Worthy feels less like a young dog and more like somebody’s sweet little retired aunt who discovered the joys of backyard zoomies and decided to dabble recreationally.
Inside the house, she is an absolute dream. Fully potty trained, kennel trained, settles beautifully, and fully understands the art of being indoors without acting like a tiny demolition crew. Most of the time she’s either:
- curled up on the couch
- relaxing in her crate
- quietly following you around
- or laying there watching the room like she’s supervising construction on a Home Depot parking lot.
She’s playful without being overwhelming, affectionate without being clingy, and calm without being boring. It’s honestly a ridiculously easy combination to fall in love with.
And dogs? She LOVES dogs.
Big dogs, little dogs, goofy dogs, dramatic dogs, dogs built like refrigerators for some reason — she gets along with everybody. She’s submissive, easygoing, social, and genuinely thrives with canine companionship. She would absolutely love another dog in the home to cuddle, play, and exist alongside.
She’s also cat-safe, walks beautifully on leash, responds incredibly well to gentle correction, and adjusts quickly to new environments once she realizes nobody’s trying to make things weird.
Worthy was originally adopted from a shelter in a Texas border town before making her way into rescue, and despite whatever life looked like before this, she somehow came out the other side still choosing softness.
There’s just something incredibly comforting about her. The kind of dog who makes a house feel quieter in the best possible way.
The kind of dog you look at one random Tuesday night while she’s upside down on
the couch snoring softly beside you and think:
“Yeah… this was a really good decision.”

The Truth About Rescue:
Every rescue pup is a work in progress — and that’s the beauty of it. None of them come wrapped in a bow, ready-made or mistake-free. They come with stories, quirks, and hearts that have seen a lot but still choose to trust again.
Adoption isn’t about perfection; it’s about presence. Showing up for them, every day, until they know they’re finally home. That’s when you’ll see them bloom — soft and steady — into the very best version of themselves. And somewhere along the way, you’ll realize they were never the only one being rescued.

Once we have received your application, we will review and reach out to set-up an interview with one of our volunteers! If you have additional questions, please email us at SaintMuttsInquiries@gmail.com.
Note: As with all of our rescues, we recommend homes with children 10 years and over to ensure the best fit for both the pets and families involved.
