Get this: Fostering dogs is really quite simple. You open your heart and home and the incredibly generous donors supporting Harley's Hounds will supply funds to cover the vetting, supplies, etc.
If you haven't done this before, no sweat -- we'll gladly show you the way.
Adopting a dog is a decision that will bring immense joy into your life. This decision takes careful consideration. When you choose to adopt, you not only provide a forever home to a deserving companion but also save the life of the next from the cruel streets or overcrowded shelters of of South Texas.
It's important you understand dogs come in all shapes, sizes, and backgrounds, each with their unique personality, needs and story. Sound familiar? It's just like you and the home you plan to bring them into. By opening your heart and home to a rescue dog, you give them a second chance at happiness and a loving family. When adopting, it's important you also know that this is a lifetime commitment.
All of our hounds are located in South Texas, Rio Grande Valley but open to transport across the United States. We are dedicated to getting them HOME. Here's how you can help:
This boy is as handsome as he is kind. We actually thought about renaming him "Happy" once we got to know him because his personality brings sheer joy. He is about 1 year old (65 LB lab mix) and does well with other dogs. No cats.
He would do great in a home with other dogs. He walks well on a leash with harness and is learning all about these things called "manners". He has high energy and would do well in a home that is active to keep him busy.
Crate and potty trained, this boy is ready to come home. He's been fostered in a home since February and his foster says, "Bosco is one of my favorite personalities on this earth. Curious and caring yet strong and confident. He deserves a family that will love him forever and teach him the best way to fold into everything that they do."
Lola. The star of the show. This girl showed up at just under 2 lbs and has been a fighter ever since. We affectionately call her our little "Pistol".
She will do great in any home, kids + cats + dogs... just keep a princess status for her and she approves. She walks well on a leash and is working hard to perfect her potty training in the house.
Crate trained and ready to come home. Her foster says, "She has my whole heart. She loves to be in constant touch and is always looking to make me and the family happy."
She is adorable inside and out. This 27 lb perfect "South Texas Mix" has as much personality as the need to please. Not cat tested.
She would do best in a home without other dogs where she can be the center of attention. She does well with some, and others -- needs to prove her girl-boss status! She walks well on a leash and does well with children. She has energy and would do well in a home that is active, will keep her a part of their everyday and will promise to keep her busy.
Crate and potty trained, this little lady is ready to come home. Her foster says, "Bella is one of a kind. She is polite yet assertive and deserves a family that will love her for always. I can't believe she was wandering the streets... she's a total couch potato."
She's regal. She's elegant. She's royalty and we are excited for you to meet Sophie. She has a playful personality but also knows how to keep it all in with her excellent manners. Tea party anyone?
She is crate and house trained and all of the dogs love to be around her. She will be spayed prior to adoption. Sophie would do well in a home with or without other dogs, she's confident in her own skin and learns quickly. We attribute that to her suspected Aussie/Lab mix.
She is playful and the most gentle young lady. She is 6 months old (40 LBS) and up to date on all shots, ready to make your home hers. She has been fostered in a home with children since May and her foster family says, "Sophie is a gentle spirit with the need to please. She learns quickly and has folded right into our family. She will make any home so happy."

A loyal companion!
Zsa Zsa is a stunning young Australian Shepherd, under 1 year old, with a gorgeous black and white coat that’s truly to die for. This special girl had a rough start in life and is still learning to trust, but she’s making great progress. Her agility is incredible, and she’ll need an active family who can dedicate time to training her and keeping her busy.
Zsa Zsa would also do well in a home with another dog that can show her the ropes and help build her confidence. She’s curious about cats — not aggressive, just very interested. Due to her not-so-humble beginnings, we recommend a home without young children to ensure she continues to feel safe and supported.
She’s fully up to date on all vaccinations, has been spayed, and is now looking for her forever home. Her foster says, "Zsa Zsa is really special. She finds her person and never leaves their side. Velcro dog, some may say... I say, she understands and has a deep respect and loyalty to the human that refuses to give up on her."
If you’re looking for a loyal, intelligent, and active companion, Zsa Zsa might be your perfect match. She’s ready to join a loving home where she can continue to grow, thrive, and feel truly safe.

A Ray of STRAIGHT SUNSHINE!
Gigi is an adorable Shih Tzu-Dachshund mix, just under a year old, with a heart of gold and a personality that lights up every room she enters. She loves everyone she meets, and her joyful tail and booty wags make sure you know it!
Curious by nature and never shy, Gigi is always ready to explore her surroundings, but she’s equally happy to curl up in your lap for some snuggle time. She would thrive in a home with other dogs who can help show her the ropes and boost her confidence. Her foster says, "This girl is a ray of sunshine. I've never met someone with such a jaded past that never shares it. She enjoys each day and loves humans, cats, and dogs just the same. We can all learn from Gigi."
One of Gigi’s most charming features is her unique calico coat. When fully grown out, her fur is delightfully messy and wiry — it’s the best!
Gigi is located in Harlingen, TX. She will be spayed soon, and she must be spayed prior to adoption. If you’re looking for a sweet, loving companion who will shower you with affection and bring endless joy to your life, Gigi might just be the perfect fit!
