URGENT NEED
At Sweetpups Rescue and Sanctuary, we feed a minimum of $150 worth of food each day, not including the special needs diets that many of our dogs are on. With donations being at an all time low and expenses being at an all time high, we are seriously struggling. A simple donation of a bag of food can mean the world to so many!
By clicking the link below, you can easily send food from our Chewy Wish List and help us save another life and fill a hungry tummy.
Hopper
Hope Beyond Measure
"HOPPER"
App 5 years old
75 Pounds of Love!
Allow us to introduce Hopper, a truly remarkable German Shepherd. Our encounters with impressive dogs have been numerous, but Hopper stands out. His charming greeting, which includes extending his paw and soliciting belly rubs, will undoubtedly capture your heart.
Hopper embodies perfection, and we would rate him a 10 out of 10 in all categories! If you are looking for a best friend that is loyal, loving, friendly, cuddly AND a striking beauty, look no farther than our amazing Hopper!
This stunning dog was admitted to Sweetpups from the Anahuac Pound after he and a running buddy (already adopted) were picked up as strays. They frequented the local grocery store looking for handouts. You will be able to see in his intake picture that he didn't receive enough "handouts" as he came to us well underweight with ribs showing and hip bones protruding. But his intake pictures also show his beautiful nature as he leans into Kolbey's hand for love and he had just gotten him off the van and was a complete stranger to him.
Hopper continues to impress us with his loving personality and his desire to be by people. Hopper will need a home that allows him to be the VELCRO kind of dog he desires to be. He is great outdoors WITH you but prefers to be inside if that's where you are. He will be an amazing companion dog for someone who will smother him with love and attention. Just FYI, he loves going on walks!
If you are interested in this amazing dog, please complete the application and let's get started. Once approved, we will set up a meet and greet so you can get some Hopper handshakes!
Hopper has completed all vetting which included heartworm treatment as he came to us testing positive. He is 100% up to date on everything, neutered and microchipped and now reads negative on his heartworm test and has been given a clean bill of health!
Adoption fee is $300
Transport is available but is not included in the adoption fee if you are out of the area.
Please contact us to meet this beauty! Applications are available on the page or simply click the link!

Available Adoptable Dogs
When You are Ready, We Are Here!
Our strength lies not only in the words we stand by, but most importantly in the actions of our initiatives. From the moment we started our work in 2000, we understood that by working together we could overcome our challenges much more efficiently, and that is why we ultimately decided to launch Sweetpups Nation Rescue and Sanctuary. We strive to make a positive change in all of our pursuits.
All our dogs are located in Texas, with most housed at the Rescue/Sanctuary until homes are located. All our pets are spayed, neutered, microchipped, vaccinated, wormed, heartworm tested/treated and on prevention. We provide transport to point on the East Coast and travel as far north as Bangor, Maine as weather permits. Our work cannot successfully continue without homes. The dogs normally move quickly as it seems a lot of folks want their very own "Sweetpups", therefore, if you see one you are interested in, we encourage you to pursue adoption quickly.
Alligator Bait Puppies - Adopted
Trace and Tolkien are the only two pups left from the Gator Bait Pups as the rest have been adopted. Yes, they truly were being used as such in a local canal but thanks to a fisherman and Mr. Sweetpups, all were brought to safety. They are fiercely loyal and work to protect their "flock" which is comprised of their chosen people. Not aggressive but protective in nature, as is their breed. Very playful and can be somewhat rambunctious but the love they bring, along with their stunning beauty, makes up for that!
Just enough Pyrenees, just enough Aussie , make these the perfect breed!
A snow squall outside. A roaring fire within. And your large, fluffy canine companion rests close by, warming your feet—or perhaps your feet are being guarded? The Great Pyrenees breed was born to sit watchfully, waiting for predators to pounce. While there may be little danger lurking between your couch and TV, this Pyrenean mountain dog is still ready to serve courageously, no matter the task. Independent of mind yet gentle in soul, the Great Pyrenees dog is a beautiful, majestic creature with a coat to die for. You’ll never need another pair of slippers again.
Trace - Adopted!
Ever curious about their surroundings, they check out everything that is new. That is a trait of the breed. They use those noses to examine everything just to make certain it is acceptable and not a danger to their "flock". We have learned just to hold new items (and new dogs) still untill the Pyrenese inspection has been successfully completed.

Activities
Making A Difference
RESCUE
Reinforcing our Commitment
And yes, we rescue! Many of our dogs are found after they have been abandoned, some are off death row, some are owner surrenders. While our initial goal is to keep pets in homes, given the large number of unwanted pets in our area, it is just not possible all the time. We house a minimum of 100 dogs on the Sweetpups property, which changes substantially with every natural disaster in the Gulf. Every dog receives the utmost care, is thoroughly vetted, and is assessed as to the home needed before being offered to adopters.
Sanctuary
One Step at a Time
Sometimes an animal comes to us with special needs that greatly diminish its chance of successful adoption, whether long-term medical, emotional, behavioral, or simply age. These dogs may enter our Sanctuary Program to live out the remainder of their days, however long that may be, in Sweetpups style. We have worked very hard to provide a life of comfort for these dogs that deserve to be happy and loved, but for some reason may not be a fit in a typical adoptive family.
Spay Program
Helping The Community
ONE female dog and her offspring can produce over 67,000 puppies in a 6-year time frame. Realizing that we will never be able to rescue all the puppies in need, we can greatly reduce that number by working with the owners. We began the Spay Program to work with the underserved community, providing low to no cost spays, decreasing the number of litters. We believe that an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure and invite you to donate to this cause!
Transport
Reinforcing our Commitment
We saw the need to add a transport service to Sweetpups and make monthly trips to northern locations to move dogs into new homes. Some dogs will go to our partner rescues in other states but many go directly into approved homes. The dogs travel in style in "Sapphire", the transport van, and are tended around the clock until they arrive at their new destination. We invite other rescues to take advantage of our services when possible. Our cost to transport is roughly $100 per dog, made possible through your donations. Such a small price to give a dog a new life!
