Animal shelters work hard to care for unhoused pets and connect them to loving homes. Hoodline used data from Petfinder to power this roundup of dogs currently available for adoption.

Copper is as smart as they come! He knows many tricks, has shown signs of being housetrained and is crate trained! He seems to like the company of other dogs, as long as there is a proper introduction. His energy level is suited for a home with older kids.

Jake can be a little shy or wary upon introduction. After a few minutes of petting him, you've earned his trust — it's that easy! He could benefit from some basic obedience training. Play a little fetch with him, take him for walks now and then and have him crate trained. It's a must while he's left unattended indoors. You'll find that the work you've invested in Jake has earned you the perfect companion.

Say hello to Max, a one year old big puppy at heart. This big goofball loves playing fetch with a tennis ball and being chased by you. He'd make a wonderful jogging companion for all you early birds out there! This smart boy already knows "sit" and "paw" and is eager to learn more tricks. He's lived with older children (at least 12 years old), and he loved having active owners.

Samberg, boxer mix

Samberg is a handsome male boxer mix being cared for at Humane Society of El Paso.

He is neutered and vaccinated. He's already house-trained.

Samberg's current caretakers say:

Samberg is one handsome dog! He's got a stub for a tail, but what he lacks in tail, he makes up for by wagging his whole body when he's happy! What will make Samberg really happy is having a home where he can rest his head, play chase with his favorite humans and catch treats in mid-air that you toss at him. He would do well in a home with older children (at least 8 years old) who can better handle his energy.

Sammy, pit bull terrier mix

Sammy is a winsome female pit bull terrier mix being kept at Humane Society of El Paso.

She's already house-trained. Sammy is spayed, and she has all her shots.

Notes from Sammy's caretakers:

Sammy is such a sweet dog, and you could have this bundle of love all to yourself! She's great on a leash, has shown signs of being housetrained and would make a wonderful candidate for children! Sammy would prefer a calm companion over a really energetic one.

Shotzi, terrier mix

Shotzi is a female terrier mix being cared for at Animal Rescue League of El Paso.

Shotzi is eager to make friends, and she'll get along great with other dogs. She's already house-trained. She's spayed and vaccinated.
