Foster Feature: Bambi

TBAR-Rehab-Dog-BambiThank you to Bambi’s foster mom for helping this sweet girl get healthy! Foster homes make all the difference.

“This is a before and today picture of Bambi.. she was the pup we found in a ditch cold and scared. She has come a long way but still has a bit to go. She is the sweetest dog in the world doesn’t bark or jump on the kids or anybody for that matter. SHe loves to be inside in her chair . She is going to be an amazing pet.” – Foster Mom

Pet of the Week: Roman (dog)

TBAR-Adoptable-Dog-RomanToday’s pet of the week is Roman. This lab / great dane mix is a big boy at 82 pounds but he’s well behaved and learns very quickly. He walks pretty well on lead. He has learned to sit, working on stay, shake paws, crawl and is easy to feed. He is a fun/goofy boy that doesn’t play well with other dogs. He’d be a great companion and guard dog in a single pet family. Email [email protected] or call 936-878-2349 if you’d like to meet and possibly adopt Roman.

Dog Adopted! Kingston (Joey)

TBAR-Success-Adopted-KingstonKingston, now named Joey, is adopted! This sweet dog was at the shelter and on his last days before euthanasia when Kelly offered to foster him and save his life. Lucky for this sweet fellow Kelly and her family fell in love with him and decided to adopt. We call this a foster failure and we LOVE foster failures because that’s one more pet that gets a home of their own for life!! Thank you Kelly for joining our long list of foster failures. We hope this list keeps growing. If you’d like to adopt a dog, cat or horse, please visit our web site www.t-bar.org to see all the animals that are waiting for their forever home. Take advantage of our half off adoption fees for dogs and cats this month too!

His new family will find him to be a fun and goofy pup who is easy to feed, walks well on a lead and has learned to sit. He’s still working on his other manners, such as stay, shake paws, and crawl. He’s also getting used to crating!

February only: Our TBAR adoption fees are only $75 for dogs!

Adopt Me! Winston

Winston-Adoptable-Dog-TBAR-01
Winston was found on the streets broken and beaten. Lucky for him he ended up with a foster Mom who is also a nurse. She helped him become physically and mentally healthy and ready for a new home. She was fine with fostering him and loving him until his perfect owner came along but then her health declined and she’s not sure how long she can keep him. Please read what she wrote about Winston and share till his forever home is found. Email [email protected] to adopt Winston

Winston is a definite old soul but loves to chew, gnaw, sun bathe and chase his toys around. He also loves his clothes (sweaters, T shirts, and jerseys) and don’t try to take his collar with tags off, he freaks out. He surely knows how to entertain himself as well. He loves to cuddle, go on walks, car rides and hog any bed.

He absolutely LOVES people. He doesn’t particularly feel safe with other dogs yet but has made long strides with this process. I remove all food, toys/ bones and his lock his crate when other dogs are around to ensure he feels comfortable and not insecure due to his past. He is not good with cats, since he chases them out of my yard. He is a protector for sure, especially within the house and yard.
He will be the perfect home protector and companion with any person that is seeking a single companion or one animal home.
Winston-Adoptable-Dog-TBAR-02

I have had Winston since February 2015. He is up to date on shots, heart worm negative and has been altered. Please note that he loves children however I would say that he would probably be better off with pre teens and older since he does enjoy to play tug of war with his rope toys.

The perfect parent for this fur baby will receive all of his clothing, crate, bowls, portable water bowl for walks, toys, bones, both his beds and food once he is adopted to ease the transition of his FUREVER parent(s) or family.

TBAR-Success-Nina-Dog-AdoptedThe chili cookoff at Independence Harley Davidson was a great fundraiser and a fabulous adoption day too! Our dogs got a lot of attention and this sweet girl, Nina, found her forever family too! Here’s a picture of Nina with her new Mom and Dad and brother Jack. If it all works out Nina’s new name might be Jill. (Jack and Jill) How cute is that!
Please consider adopting one of our rescue pets. Go to www.t-bar.org and take a look at the dogs, cats and horses that are waiting for their forever home.

Success Story: Mandy

TBAR-Success-Story-MandyWe love happy endings and this is a special one! Sweet Mandy lived at Tbar in a kennel for years. She’s a shy dog and looks like a greyhound / shepherd mix. We were starting to worry that she’d spend her life in a kennel when someone special stepped up and offered to foster. As her foster mom said, “Mandy wasn’t what I was looking for but she ended up being exactly what I needed in my life”

Pet of the Week: Tyson

TBAR-Pet-of-the-Week-TysonToday’s pet of the week is Tyson. Tyson is about a year old, fully housebroken, crate trained, walks well on a leash and is working on and doing well learning to sit on command and give his paw. This sweet boy has weak back legs from a birth defect and lack of exercise as a puppy. He was kept in a crate and not let out. The vet x-rayed to be sure there was no pain or discomfort and found that Tyson is fine just the way he is. Now that he’s had time to build his leg muscles he runs and plays just like the rest of the dogs but he also hops which is the cutest thing to see! We believe Tyson is a heeler / shepherd mix. He’s friendly, loves kids and gets along with all other dogs too. Please email us if you’d like to arrange to meet Tyson. [email protected]
