Cody (Westie) & Ryan (Schipperke),

I’m Cody, a cheerful 13-year-old Westie, and this is my sidekick Ryan, a lively 7-year-old Schipperke. We recently joined LSWR after our sweet human mom passed away, and while we miss her dearly, we’re ready to start a new chapter full of belly rubs and backyard adventures! We’ve been a dynamic duo since Ryan was a pup, so we’re hoping to find a home where we can stick together—because let’s face it, we’re better as a team. Despite everything, we’re both in tip-top shape, neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, and recently had a dental so our smiles are as dazzling as our personalities.  Ryan’s got energy for days, and I’m the chill lap-warmer with a nose for squirrel patrol.  Our favorite things?

Snuggling in your lap and keeping the garden safe from squirrels and their sneaky friends—we take our patrol duties seriously!

If you’re looking for a joyful and loveable pair to fill your home with laughter and love, look no further. We’re ready to bring happiness to your life!

We may have lost our first home, but we haven’t lost hope—because we know our next chapter will be filled with love, and maybe… you.

Ready to meet us? Contact LSWR today and ask for Cody and Ryan. We can’t wait to be part of your family.

I’m an 8-year-old West Highland White Terrier with a heart full of love. I’ve had a good life- full of belly rubs, treats, and warm naps. My two humans were the best. They took amazing care of me, gave me cuddles, treats, and all the love a pup could ask for. But things changed. One of them passed away, and the other is now in a memory care facility. I miss them both every day.

Lately, I’ve been staying with some family members who truly care about me, but they work long hours and want what’s best for me. That’s why they reached out to LSWR to help me find a forever home where someone is around more often.

I’m a big fan of car rides and outdoor adventures—there’s nothing better than feeling the wind in my fur! Plush toys are my favorite for snuggling and tossing around, and I never say no to a good game of tug-of-war with a rope. Walks are the highlight of my day, especially when I get to sniff all the interesting smells. And don’t worry—I take my job of keeping the backyard squirrel-free very seriously. It’s a full-time gig, but someone’s gotta do it!

So now, I’m looking for my new forever home—somewhere I can share all my love, loyalty, and playful energy with someone who’s ready for a best friend like me.

I’m house-trained, know my commands (“sit,” “stay,” “fetch).  I’d do best in a home without young kids — they make me a little nervous. I’ve gotten along well with a calm female dog before, so I might enjoy a mellow female canine companion or being an only pup. I’ve got a lot of love to give, and I can’t wait to find my special person! I’ll be here, tail wagging and waiting for you.

Lucky is a 13-year-old Westie with a heart full of love and a tail that operates like a high-speed fan whenever he’s happy—which is basically all the time! He’s on the lookout for a forever home where he can shower his new human with affection and enjoy plenty of cuddles in return.

This cheerful gentleman loves making new friends—both human and canine—and takes his backyard patrol duties very seriously, especially when it comes to keeping an eye on those mischievous squirrels!  Lucky has been diagnosed with a heart murmur, which means he’ll need daily medication to keep him feeling his best but don’t worry-he’s a pro at pill-taking when treats are involved.

Soon, he’ll be getting his teeth cleaned so he can flash a smile that melts hearts and possibly earns extra snacks. Overall, Lucky is a healthy, happy guy who’s just looking for a cozy home, a loving human, and maybe a few squirrels to keep in line.

If you’re ready for a loyal companion with a big heart and even bigger personality, Lucky would be thrilled to join your squad. Bonus: he comes with built-in squirrel radar.

Hey everyone, I’m Linus! No clue how I ended up in a local shelter—maybe I took a wrong turn at the dog park while chasing a squirrel? But lucky for me, the amazing folks at Lone Star Westie Rescue swooped in like superheroes and got me out. And let me tell you, I was tail-wagging thrilled!

Now, a little about me: I’m 4 years young, a professional snuggle bug (seriously, I could teach a course), and fully potty trained—because manners matter. I get along great with other dogs, big and small, and have an easygoing, gentle vibe. The vet gave me a clean bill of health (I may have bribed them with kisses), and I’ve got a dental and neuter coming up soon. So, while I’m getting pampered, I’ll be reviewing adoption applications like a canine CEO.

Interested in me? Slide into my inbox—I promise I’m cuter in person and I never disappoint!  Please visit lswr.us and send in your application.

Warning: excessive cuddling may occur. Side effects include smiling, tail wags, and falling hopelessly in love.

Hi friends! My name is Cooper — and while I’m not a Westie, I’ve found myself in the loving care of Lone Star Westie Rescue.

Due to some unexpected medical issues, my human mom could no longer care for me. Thankfully, my family reached out to LSWR to help me find a new forever home, especially with shelters being so full right now.

I’m a 3-year-young, super sweet boy who’s neutered, up to date on all my vaccines, and in great health! I get along wonderfully with other pups and have a heart full of love to give.

Looking for a lap dog? I’m your guy. Want a buddy to play fetch? I’m all in. Need a stage five clinger? I’ve got you covered.

If you think we’re a match, please visit lswr.us to fill out an online application — and don’t forget to ask for Cooper!

Cooper

Hi everyone, I’m Coco.  I think I may be a Poodle possibly Maltipoo mix, I’m not sure.  I was fortunate enough to be found by a kind-hearted Samaritan who picked me up off the street. They made every effort to reunite me with my family, but sadly, no one came forward to claim me. Now, I’m on a journey to find a new loving home where I can share my affection and charm.

According to my foster mom, I’m the essence of a laid-back, chilled pup—a true lapdog at heart. Word around the house is that I’m super smart, too! While I might be a bit shy initially, I warm up quickly and am more than ready to join a pack. Rest assured, I’m just a good boy looking for a loving home to share my gentle nature and intelligence with.

I get along great with big and small dogs and even cats.  I’m a young 5-year-old male, vaccinated, neutered and recently had a dental, so I’m ready for my new home.  If you’re searching for a wonderful, loving pup like me, don’t hesitate to visit lswr.us to complete an application. Be sure to mention me, and let’s start our journey together towards a forever home filled with love and happiness!

Love Coco

This 17 lbs of handsome is named Teddy.  He will be 7 years old on March 12th and would love to be settled into his new home in time to celebrate.

Teddy is one of a kind.  He knows several tricks by verbal or hand command.  He loves to learn and is very smart. He doesn’t destroy toys, shoes, or laundry.  He loves a good belly scratch, frozen blueberries; and if you take him for a walk or a car ride, you will be his favorite human. His family is moving overseas and cannot take him along and are looking for a very special home for him.

He has been to a vet annually his entire life and is current on all his shots.  He has no health issues and his current diet has that typical Westie skin allergy thing a non-issue for him.  He is neutered.

Teddy must be the ONLY fur baby in his new home.  He has a strong  history of aggression issues with other dogs, both male & female, large & small.  Sorry. No exceptions can be made. If you meet the criteria above please contact Ronda.hicks@gmail.com. NOTE: prospects will be vetted.

My name is Dougie but you can call me Kirby! Recently, I found myself with Lake Dallas Animal Services, and I wasn’t quite sure why. But I can tell you, I immediately knew I’d found somewhere that would help me. I really couldn’t see very well, and I overheard the dogtor say that they couldn’t even really see my eyeballs, but I wasn’t scared. I loved the whole staff, and I knew they were there to take care of me.

It turns out, I’m about 5-7 years old, and I weight 11 lbs. My vaccines are now up to date, I’m heartworm negative, and they also neutered me! I know, I know… it’s for my own good! The very nice dogtors were also able to figure out what exactly is going on with my eyes. I am basically blind in both eyes due to phthisis bulbi, which is a shrunken, nonfunctional eye. My condition can develop after severe ocular trauma or intraocular inflammatory disease. Apparently, I don’t really need much done for this. It’s something I’ll live with, and it doesn’t really bother me. In the case that my eyes become dry, I have over the counter eyedrop medication that gets me fixed right up! I get around pretty good and I’m very low key and potty trained. And I love being outside just soaking in the sun.

Not only did Lake Dallas Animal Services step up and reach out directly to LSWR for more long-term help for me, but Denton Animal Support Foundation covered all of my vetting while I was at Lake Dallas Animal Services as well as the ER! I am forever grateful for not one, not two, but THREE organizations who have stepped up to get me on the road to being in tip-top shape.

I’m home with my foster mom right now, and I just love being in her lap and snuggling. But, mealtime is a close second along with sunbathing and frolicking in the backyard garden! And my eyes are already looking and feeling so much better! I’m such a sweet pup and I adore all the TLC I’m getting. I’m really low key, just laid back and like to chill. If you have a room in your home and heart for a sweet boy like me, I’d love to hear from you.

If you have the room in your home and heart for me, I’d love to hear from you.

xoxo Kirby

Haley came to LSWR when her family could no longer care for her.  She is estimated to be about 8 years old and in great health.  She is so spunky and has beautiful little pearly white teeth!  When she joined LSWR she needed surgery to repair her torn ACL and has recovered from surgery (she’s 5 months post-surgery) and done remarkably well.  She walks great on a leash and loves the great outdoors.  She’s vaccinated, spayed, and microchipped, potty-trained and now just needs her forever family.  She’s quite active and would do best in a home with another Westie or pup and a nice fenced in yard (No apartment living for this girl). If you’re looking for an active, spry, fun-loving, sweet girl, submit your online application.

Daisy & Duffy are a bonded pair and such good sweet and loving Westies who will be adopted together!  Duffy is about 10 years and weighs 15 pounds, while Daisy around 5 years and weighs 14 pounds.  Both are up to date with their shots, spayed & neutered and microchipped.

Duffy loves plush toys and carries them all around inside and outside the house.  Duffy has a kind and gentle soul and a LOVE for cuddles.  If there’s a lap around, he’s in it.  A loyal companion like Duffy would surely make lounging around much more enjoyable with such a loving and cuddly presence by your side! 

Daisy is very dainty and gentle, but boy can she run super-fast chasing critters.  Daisy is super sweet and cuddly, like Duffy and loves attention.  A spunky, playful, and fun Westie girl who enjoys lying next to you during TV time with Duffy by her side.  They have a lot of love to give.

They are a bonded pair and will be adopted together.  Please submit an online application for this wonderful pair of Westies.

Hi everyone,

I’m Willow and I’m looking for my forever home. I’m just under 10 pounds and estimated to be about 1 year old.  Not sure how I landed at a local shelter, but I was so scared, that they rallied to get me into a foster care program with LSWR and here I am.  I’ve learned to overcome that fear and now I show true best buddy potential ever since.

I’m in a foster home with 3 other pups and I love playing with the young little Westie rascal.  I took to my foster dad right away and my foster mom gave me my space, didn’t push me for attention until I was ready.  Once I trusted them both, I became so affectionate and cuddly.  I will need someone that will be patient with me in training and obedience like all puppies need and help me get over of being afraid of new things.  My foster mom says I’m easy to handle when I have trust in a person.  I’m good on a leash, baths, nail trimmings, pretty much anything my foster parents ask of me at home.  I’m still working on learning to trust my vet.  I bark at strangers who visit us but I’m getting so much better at this.  I even go to the home improvement stores for practice.  I love the outdoors and chasing all those pesky squirrels.

I would love a family to call my very own that has the time and patience for this cute little pup.  I’d love another doggie pal, a fenced in yard and no children as they would probably scare me.

If you have time, patience, and love for cute little Willow, please visit LSWR.us to complete an online application and ask for me, Willow.

Puppy kisses,

Willow

Hi everyone, I’m Joy, I am 8 months old and my mom and my littermate Cupcake I joined LSWR in Jan-2024. We were so lucky to have LSWR take us all in. Our mom used to live outdoors, and we were born and lived outside until we joined LSWR. We have been very well cared for and Loved by our great foster family and now it’s time to find our very own family. I am vaccinated, spayed, and microchipped. I am a very loving puppy, a little shy, but quite loving and I weigh around 13 pounds. I want to be near my humans but not big on snuggling. I’m in a foster home with Cupcake and a Westie and some cats. I’ve learned a lot in foster care, retrieve and release and walking on a leash. My foster mom says I am just the sweetest little pup and so smart. Anyway, enough about cute, adorable me. If you are looking for a sweet, gentle, and loving companion like me, please consider adopting me. I am excited to meet you and can’t wait to bring joy to your life!”

I’m Scout and I’m looking for my new forever home. I was picked up as a stray and taken to a local shelter.  The shelter was at capacity and LSWR stepped in to help. I’m about 1 year old and just your typical playful PUPPY.  I’m vaccinated and neutered and over all just a darn CUTE little rascal. I am a super sweet, playful, cuddly, and quite an affectionate little puppy. I get along great with all pups, not sure about.   I sleep in the crate at night, but I also love snuggling on the couch with my humans.

I LOVE to play and run around outside looking for twigs, help in the garden and I have plenty of furry friends and toys to keep me busy. My foster mom says I’m so sweet and I love to cuddle.  What more could you ask for?   I am 95% potty trained, I know how to go to the door when I need to.  So please remember, I’m still a puppy and need lots of time, patience, and playtime.

If you have time, patience, and love for this puppy in need, please visit LSWR.us to complete an online application and ask for me, Scout.

Puppy kisses,

Scout

I’m Simba. Let me tell you a little bit about my story.

I am one of 3 adorable puppies that were left at a shelter on 12/16/22. The shelter was at capacity and asked LSWR if they could help take us in. They didn’t want us to end up being Christmas presents. Of course, LSWR said yes!! I am a Schnauzer mix puppy and I’m about 4-5 months young.

I’m all vaccinated and will be neutered soon. I am a super sweet, playful, cuddly and affectionate puppy. I get along great with big and small pups.

I LOVE to play and run around outside, help in the garden and I would love to have a furry friend and toys to keep me busy. I have mastered potty-training skills and sleep all through the night. My foster mom says I’m so sweet and I love to cuddle. What more could you ask for?

Let us tell you a little bit about our story. 

We are 3 adorable puppies that were left at a shelter on 12/16/22.  The shelter was at capacity and asked LSWR if they could help take us in. They didn’t want us to end up being Christmas presents.  Of course, LSWR said yes!!  We think we are possibly Schnauzer mixes and are about 4 months old.

We have had our first set of vaccinations and are microchipped.  We are all very sweet, inquisitive, and loving puppies, cuddly and affectionate!!  We LOVE to play and run around outside looking for twigs, help in the garden and we have plenty of puppy teething toys to keep us busy.  We are mastering our potty-training skills and sleep all through the night.  Our foster moms say we are very good puppies and we are starting to learn the sit command.

If you have the time, patience, and are looking for a great puppy, please complete an online application and ask for one of us. 

Puppy kisses,

Sophie (black puppy), Simba (apricot/beige color puppy) & Buddy (white & black spots)

****Snoopy found hi forever home with his foster Family! They fell in love with this sweet boy and now he has a westie brother and all the cuddles and love he could ever want! ****

Hi everyone, I’m Snoopy.  I was dropped off at a shelter by my previous owner and the shelter contacted LSWR asking if they would take me and here I am.   My prior owner surrendered me because I have anal polys.  Gladly LSWR rescued me and I’ve been vetted and had a dental.  Although, rectal polyps are an infrequent, usually benign disease, my vet check went very well and I’m doing great.  I am about 8-9 years old, neutered, vaccinated and just super sweet.  Not to mention how handsome I am!! I’m housetrained, easy going and get along great with other dogs.  I’m even a great cuddle bug if you like cuddlers.  I bark and like to chase cats, so a home without cats would be best for me.  I’m super smart, walk great on a leash and love walks.  Thunderstorms scare me a bit, but if I can just sit and be next to my human, that is super helpful and helps calm me.

I hope there is room in your home and your hearts for me. I am an adorable little treasure and just a sweet calm and happy Westie.  Please visit lswr.us to complete an online application.

Hello everyone, meet Dexter.  Dexter’s family surrendered him because they had 4 small children and they didn’t have enough time for Dexter.  His prior family had him since he was a puppy but made the right decision to surrender him.  Dexter is a 3 year-old Miniature Schnauzer who gets along great with other dogs (big and small) and even cats.  He’s in a foster home with a couple of Australian Shephards, one who is deaf and a cat.  He plays so well with them all.  Sudden and fast movements seem to startle him at first but comes around very quickly.

This little boy has lots of energy and he is very friendly and a total sweetheart.  He is neutered, micro-chipped and vaccinated.  He is ready for his new family might that be you?

Hello folks, my name Jasper I just turned 8 years this past February.  My birthdate is 2/14/2013. My human mom passed-away and I’ve been living with a family member.  It was a difficult decision but due to their busy and hectic schedule they decided to contact LSWR to find me a new home.

I am a very sweet Westie boy, gentle and a cuddler.  I love EVERYONE!  I love attention, being petted, sitting next to humans and I love being outdoors.  I love going for walks and I love to chat with all the people and pups on the walking trail.  Squeaky toys, rope toys, tennis balls, I love them ALL!!  I’m also very smart, I know sit, stay, come and I walk great on a leash and I ride very well in the car.  I know all about doggie doors too.  I recently had a dental cleaning in Dec-2020 and I’m fully vaccinated.

I’m a super great looking Westie, all 20 pounds of me.  I occasionally have a few tee-tee accidents in the house, not super often, so I will need someone that is home more to give me potty breaks.  I’ve lived with another Westie gal, so I am perfectly fine with another furry friend.  If you have the time for this sweet Westie boy, I promise, we’ll be great companions.  Please visit lswr.us and read all about me.  I will be waiting patiently.

XOXO Jasper
