Anastasia: "Annie" is slightly over 3 years old. She is spayed, microchipped, and current on all her vaccines. Annie has been dewormed and treated for fleas. She has tested positive for heartworms, but has begun her slow kill treatment of them. Annie knows some basic commands, is housebroken and gets along great with other dogs. She was turned in to the shelter by her owner, along with all their other pets, for an unknown reason, which could very well be financial or relocation. Annie is easy to handle, and only asks for love and attention, a warm bed, and a full tummy. She weighs just slightly over 100lbs. Annie has not been tested around cats. 8/30/2010

Hazel: is about 1.5 years old. She is a spayed rough coat female, with lots of energy and personality. Hazel is fine with large and small dogs, and ignores cats. She likes children, but is still rather exuberant, so can knock them around a bit! Hazel is a smaller Saint, weighing it at only 84 lbs, though she is quite underweight, and will probably reach 110-115 when filled out. Hazel has a gorgeous coat to match her sweet personality. She has entropian (eyelids folding inward), so is scheduled for surgery this week to correct it, and then she will be ready for a new family. She came from the same household as the Saint "Mack" from a shelter in Oklahoma. 8/22/2010

puppies: We have purebred puppies! They were surrendered to a shelter in OK, along with their parents. The father is Mack (listed below) and the momma is a smooth coated female. Puppies were born approximately 6/21/10, so they will soon be 8 weeks old. All the smooth coats have been spoken for, but we have rough coats still available (male and female). We will be requiring an application, vet and personal references, and a home inspection for all puppies. A fenced yard will be required. Applications with prior giant breed dog experience will be given priority. Puppies are located in the Dallas/FortWorth area, and transportation will not be provided. The adoption fee is $600. 8/15/2010

Bear: is a neutered rough coat male Saint. He is lovable, and likes to play with other dogs. Bear is great with people, but is not fond of cats. He had a family, but when he was picked up running loose and taken to the shelter, they chose not to come and claim him. Fortunately, he found his way to the rescue! Bear is being fostered in the DFW area. He has been vaccinated, dewormed, and has tested positive for heartworms. Bear would like to find a new family for the holidays! Could you be the one to fulfill his Christmas wish? 8/12/2010

Tiny: is a 13 month old neutered male Saint puppy. He has grown up chained in a back yard, so Tiny lacks manners of any kind, and is not housebroken yet, but he is lovable, and wants to please. He thrives on attention, and he is crate trained. Tiny just recently moved "indoors" so he will soon have a favorable opinion of air conditioning, I'm sure! Tiny gets along well with other large dogs, and is learning to tolerate cats. He is up to date on vaccines. Tiny is a bit of an escape artist (opening gate latches and crate latches), so a tall, secure fence will be required of his new adoptive home. His "escape" tendencies may very well diminish with the recent neuter, especially once he learns that his foster home is more "comfy" than roughing it outdoors. Tiny is currently being fostered in the DFW area. 8/9/2010

Mack: is a young (maybe 2 years), neutered rough coat male Saint. He is sweet and loving, and gets along well with children and other dogs of all sizes. He is housebroken, and loves attention. Mack hasn't yet been tested around cats, but the other dogs turned in with him from the same family are fine with cats, so we are thinking he might be as well. Mack is a gorgeous boy, and will make a nice family pet. He was rescued from a shelter in Oklahoma and has sired a litter of pups (prior to the neuter). He is currently being fostered in the Austin, TX area. 7/14/2010

Sierra: is a smooth coat female Saint, approximately 2 years old. She was found as a stray with her puppy Tinkerbelle in Oklahoma. Sierra is housebroken, and is fine with other dogs and even cats. She is sweet and loving, and will be spayed soon, but she is underweight, so we want to fatten her up a bit prior to surgery. Sierra has been vaccinated, crate trained, and is a very attractive young lady. The area of TX where she is being fostered long term is yet to be determined. 7/5/2010

Oakley: is a female Saint, approximately 3 years old. She was picked up as a stray, and was wearing a collar, but no one came forward to claim her. She is a beautiful Saint-just needs a little weight and some TLC. Oakley will be spayed soon and is getting some much needed dental work. She has been vaccinated and dewormed, but has tested lightly positive for heartworms. Oakley is housebroken, and adores people. She gets along fine with the other dogs in the household, but has an alpha "demeanor" about her (in other words, she looks at the other dogs and they do what she says!) Oakley has not yet been tested around cats. 6/21/2010

Windsor: (aka "Winnie") is a small Saint (80 lbs) or possibly a Saint mix (our guess is with Border Collie). We think she is between 3-4 years old, and she is a shy, sweet girl. She was absolutely terrified at the shelter, but upon leaving, perked up and jumped right in the car, like she was optimistic that her next place HAD to be better than the last. She went to the vet, and although still scared, was a good patient for her shots and tests. Winnie is submissive around other dogs in her foster home, and will take a patient, laid back family to work with her, but she wants to please and is a very pleasant girl to be around. We think Winnie is already spayed, and she tested negative for heartworms. 3/15/2010

Titan: is approx 5 years old, and is a sweet, loving, neutered rough coat male Saint (with a unique haircut that was necessary to remove terrible matting). He is housebroken, and gets along well with other large dogs (hasn't been around little dogs or cats yet). He is fascinated by the horses, and walks well on a leash. Titan was great at both the vet and the groomer's, and seemed to enjoy his bath, as he hadn't had attention in a long while. He has tested positive for heartworms, and has been treated for fleas and vaccinated. Titan is very underweight, weighing in at only 113 lbs, where he should be at least 140 or more. But he is a good eater, so regular meals should fill him out quickly. 3/7/2010

Bart: is an adult male Saint (soon to be neutered). He gets along with other female dogs (haven't tried males), and is sweet and loves attention. Bart was a shelter stray, and probably spent the first few years of his life as an outdoor dog, so he is in the process of being housebroken. He could use some obedience training as well, and because of his size and exuberance, it is not recommended that he go to a home with very young children. He has not been tested around cats. 3/7/2010
