Hound and Labrador Retriever Dogs Available for Adoption

Available From Texas

Rover is 1 year old and weighs about 50 lbs.
He is a Hound / lab mix, and his story is one of quiet care and kindness.

No one knows how Rover ended up on the streets. What we do know is that at some point, a much smaller puppy appeared by his side — Augustus. And somehow, naturally, Rover began to look after him.

Rover stayed close, waited for him, and made sure Augustus was never left behind. When they were hungry, Rover led the way. When the world felt scary, he remained calm and steady, helping the little one feel safe.

They ran after every passing car, chasing hope more than anything else. Rover went first, running dangerously close to traffic, trying to stop someone — anyone — who might notice them. Not just for himself, but because he knew the puppy needed help too.

And one day, someone finally stopped.

That single moment changed everything. Their lives shifted from survival to possibility, from the streets to safety. Rover did what needed to be done — he got them both through.

Today, Rover no longer has to worry about surviving. He is a gentle, easygoing dog who enjoys people, companionship, and the simple joy of being cared for. He is thoughtful, sweet, and quietly affectionate — the kind of dog who simply makes life feel warmer.

Now Rover needs a family of his own — a home where he will be loved, cared for, and truly become part of the family.
