Adopted!!!  Thank you David and Family for giving Gus, now called Samson a great home!!!! "Dogs have given us their absolute all. We are the center of their universe. We are the focus of their love and faith and trust. They serve us in return for scraps. It is without a doubt the best deal man has ever made." - Roger Caras Howdy, my name is Sir Guster but they call me Gus.  My Foster Mom says

Look at this beautiful boy!  He is coming to us all the way from Los Angeles.  He was a stray that was found by Animal Control in Southern Los Angeles.  We were fortunate for his sake to be able to take him in.  His time was up this evening and he would have been euthanized.  He is friendly and loves all people.   Look at his sweet face!  He is a little under weight at this time but we have him

I know well enough that there have been dogs so loving that they have thrown themselves into the same grave with the dead bodies of their masters; others have stayed upon their masters' graves without stirring a moment from them, and have voluntarily starved themselves to death, refusing to touch the food that was brought them.

The true Pit Bull revealed.... I am speechless!  How can such a great creature have a bad reputation?  As the video shows...Pit Bulls do what they are taught.  In my experience with Pits; they are loyal, committed and one of the most loving breeds I have ever come to know.  Sorry to keep posting videos but this one is important! It shows the true Pit Bull and how they take care of us. Love

In memory of sweet, sweet Dylan. He was a Pit Bull mix that was rescued from a high kill shelter at a very young age. He spent most of his life at 4 Toes Up and unexpectedly crossed Rainbow Bridge last week. Dylan is survived by his brother Mikey and by many, many friends he had here at 4 Toes Up. Thank you Dylan for coming into our lives and giving us the opportunity to know you. We were

I would've died that day if not for you. I would've given up on life if not for your kind eyes. I would've used my teeth in fear if not for your gentle hands. I would have left this life believing that all humans don't care Believing there is no such thing as fur that isn't matted, skin that isn't flea bitten, good food and enough of it, beds to sleep on, someone to love me, to show me I deserve

"By what right has the dog come to be regarded as a "noble" animal? The more brutal and cruel and unjust you are to him the more your fawning and adoring slave he becomes; whereas, if you shamefully misuse a cat once she will always maintain a dignified reserve toward you afterward- you will never get her full confidence again." - Mark TwainUpdate!

"Dogs are our link to paradise. They don't know evil or jealousy or discontent. To sit with a dog on a hillside on a glorious afternoon is to be back in Eden, where doing nothing was not boring--it was peace." - Milan KunderaThis is Rega, as her name was changed from Rage. She is an 8 year old, female Pit Bull. Rega was a bait dog, which means someone used her to taunt other Pits into fighting.

In the rescue world, we have what are called Shelter Walkers, they walk the shelters on a daily basis to take pictures and write bios of the dogs/cats. Then they put in hours posting them to rescue groups on the internet, in hopes of saving just one. Their work is tireless and for the most part no one knows what it really takes to do such a job. They are faced with death of many sweet, innocent

A dog is the only thing on earth that will love you more than you love yourself.-Josh BillingsThis is Spencer, a happy-go-not so lucky guy. Spencer is a 25 lb. Shepherd mix that was put to sleep on Thursday because no one wanted him. Its a waste of a good dog. Have dogs become disposable to us?

Dogs' lives are too short. Their only fault, really. - Agnes Sligh TurnbullThe lazy dog days of summer, keeping your Bully cool during this time of year, can be a chore. Texas has had now over 40 day's of 100 degree temperature or higher, and with that kind of heat your Bulldog and other short nosed breeds are going to have a tough time. Now, that doesn't mean that long nosed dog's should be out

It's about the Dogs that have ended up in our local Animal Shelters. It's about that young pup that died today from euthanasia. It's about the dogs that have lost their homes, their families and the environment they know. It's about the dog that was delivered to the shelter because his owner was tired of dealing with him. How do you think this affects them? Dog's emotions are the same as ours and
