Houston’s Forever Home

Houston is in his forever home slowly decompressing, learning about his new environment and routine.

We have been in touch with his new dad daily to assist in whatever capacity is needed to make this a smooth transition and so far both Houston and his dad are making fabulous progress!

They are learning about each other, Houston has begun to come out of his shell and is certainly testing the limits. Dad has learned to redirect nicely, and Houston is starting to listen and respond to correction quickly. His dad mentioned to us that the 2 months of rehabilitation and behavior modification that Houston had while here with us are showing and it is definitely helping him to make progress quickly.

Although we are a Sanctuary and don’t often adopt out dogs, Paws Give Me Purpose Inc. stands behind any adoption that does take place and will always be there for Houston and his dad in whatever capacity is needed. 

We honestly could not have asked for a better dad for Houston. He really needed a home where he was the only dog and someone that would devote the time, have the patience and give him the one on one attention that he really needs. We are SO glad they found each other!

Houston’s Happy Tails

Today was a very emotional day; something wonderful happened here at Paws Give Me Purpose…

Hi everyone it’s me Houston. Today is a very special day for me… I adopted myself a Daddy! 

I already love him and he loves me! I know already I am going to be spoiled for the rest of my life because my daddy is committed to me 1000%.

I want to thank Paws Give Me Purpose for stepping up to help me, for loving me, caring for me, and teaching me it’s ok to trust people. Thank you also for helping me over the last couple months to become more confident in myself, and getting me ready for my forever home.

As I move forward with my new beginning, my one wish is for all the doggies out there just like me to get a chance at their very own happily ever after too! 

Thank you to all my followers and supporters for caring, sharing my story and helping to make my dream come true. 

Stay tuned, Daddy and I will keep you updated through Paws Give Me Purpose about how wonderful I am doing.
