Meet Rusty! 🐾🐕❤️

Rusty is a fun-loving, affectionate Lab mix who's always ready to brighten your day 💛 He's full of energy, loves being around people, and has a special soft spot for toys--especially squeaky ones! 🎾🔊 If it squeaks, Rusty is all in and ready to play 🐶✨

Rusty has tested positive for heartworms, which means he has small parasites in his bloodstream that require treatment--but the good news is it's very treatable, and many dogs go on to live happy, healthy lives after care 🩺🐾 He'll just need a calm home environment to go through treatment and recovery. If you're interested, our team is happy to walk you through all the options and next steps.

Rusty is ready to bring joy, laughter, and lots of tail wags into your life. Come meet him and see if he's your perfect match! 🏡💕



I have tested heartworm positive. This means I have a parasite and need treatment. While my friends at HSNBA desperately want to help me, the shelter is too stressful an environment to undertake treatment and treatment itself is very expensive. The shelter has a few options to help with treatment, and if I steal your heart you should talk with them and your vet about what my treatment is like. For more information on heartworms, please visit the American Heartworm Society here https://www.heartwormsociety.org/pet-owner-resources/heartworm-basicsHSNBA lists all animals online from the moment of intake, and our listings are updated automatically every midnight. Some of these animals may not be available for adoption at this moment, but you can always call the shelter at 830-629-5287 for clarification on the adoption process or the animal's current status.
