Today’s pet of the week is Roman. This lab / great dane mix is a big boy at 82 pounds but he’s well behaved and learns very quickly. He walks pretty well on lead. He has learned to sit, working on stay, shake paws, crawl and is easy to feed. He is a fun/goofy boy that doesn’t play well with other dogs. He’d be a great companion and guard dog in a single pet family. Email [email protected] or call 936-878-2349 if you’d like to meet and possibly adopt Roman.

Adopt Me! Winston
Winston was found on the streets broken and beaten. Lucky for him he ended up with a foster Mom who is also a nurse. She helped him become physically and mentally healthy and ready for a new home. She was fine with fostering him and loving him until his perfect owner came along but then her health declined and she’s not sure how long she can keep him. Please read what she wrote about Winston and share till his forever home is found. Email [email protected] to adopt Winston
Winston is a definite old soul but loves to chew, gnaw, sun bathe and chase his toys around. He also loves his clothes (sweaters, T shirts, and jerseys) and don’t try to take his collar with tags off, he freaks out. He surely knows how to entertain himself as well. He loves to cuddle, go on walks, car rides and hog any bed.
He absolutely LOVES people. He doesn’t particularly feel safe with other dogs yet but has made long strides with this process. I remove all food, toys/ bones and his lock his crate when other dogs are around to ensure he feels comfortable and not insecure due to his past. He is not good with cats, since he chases them out of my yard. He is a protector for sure, especially within the house and yard.
He will be the perfect home protector and companion with any person that is seeking a single companion or one animal home.
I have had Winston since February 2015. He is up to date on shots, heart worm negative and has been altered. Please note that he loves children however I would say that he would probably be better off with pre teens and older since he does enjoy to play tug of war with his rope toys.
The perfect parent for this fur baby will receive all of his clothing, crate, bowls, portable water bowl for walks, toys, bones, both his beds and food once he is adopted to ease the transition of his FUREVER parent(s) or family.

Buccaneer Blackout: Dec 2016
We were invited to bring TBAR rescue dogs to an event at Blinn College in Brenham on December 10th, 2015. The purpose was to give the students something fun to do that would releive stress. Knowing that animals are great stress releivers David Michener, the director of student leadership and activities at Blinn, came up with the great idea to bring rescue dogs to the college for an event he called ‘Pets for Less Stress’. It was something new and we weren’t sure how well it would be received so I never imagined that when we got there we’d see over 100 students waiting to love on some rescue dogs. This turned out to be one of my favorite events. It was good for the students and good for the rescue dogs too. Just look at all the smiles in these pictures. We look forward to doing this again in the spring when exam time rolls around again and this time we’re going to bring a lot more dogs!
- We were amazed to see how many students showed up to pay attention to rescue animals!
- We can’t wait to bring more dogs when we go again in the spring. Thank you Blinn students for caring about our dogs. See you in the spring!
- Group shot at the end of the event.
- Stumpy likes sticks too.
- Tyson playing with a stick.
- TBAR member and Blinn student Calvin walks Opal.
- Maybelle being socialized. This was exactly what this sweet dog needed.
- So many students and not enough dogs!
- Posing for pictures with our rescue dogs.
- More love for Maybelle (who was named during the event)
- You can’t help but smile when you see Stumpy.
- Maybelle is a shy dog that had just come into our rescue so she needed lots of hugs.
- Tyson couldn’t have been happier to spend time with the students.
- Opal got some energy out and loved all the attention.
- Stumpy loved all the attention
