Texas Red walked out of the Dragoon hills, not far from the “Texas Canyon” rest stop on I-10 and onto a small ranch where a lovely lady took him in so he could rest and relax for a little while. He was clean and seemed to be well fed so we don’t think he was alone for a long time, but he was terrified of just about everything! He would bellycrawl up to her and continued to present that behavior each time she talked to him. He was a very frightened young man. The lady contacted ACDR to see if we [...]

Hello. My name is Sugar Cookie but my foster family calls me Sugar or Sug most of the time. They are really awesome folks who have been helping me to relax and recuperate since last December. When I met them I had a severely broken hind leg that could not be fixed because it was an old injury and had fused in the wrong position. That made my leg too short to touch the ground. After visits to the Vet for evaluation and x-rays it was determined that in order to make my life pain free it had to go [...]

Jubilee is a 1-year-old red and white, spayed cattle dog mix that is up to date on all her shots and is looking for a forever home with lots of love to give. She is small to medium size with an adorable face and deep brown eyes. She is very quick and always moving, but when she settles down next to you she cuddles up and enjoys snuggling and giving kisses. Jubilee is good with other dogs of all sizes and does not mind them being around. She has never been around cats so that would be a new area [...]
