Hi there!  …and thank you for viewing my page!  My name is McKenzie and I am a survivor.  I was attacked by a vicious dog who hurt me. Ms. Melissa Melvin brought me here to AARF Houston and asked for help.  

The doctor said my wounds were badly infected and I needed to have surgery - as soon as possible.  So, I quietly and sweetly did what Doc said, and I was so grateful for the care.  I am feeling so much better now, my wounds are completely healed and I am safe.

My new foster mom is taking great care of me and will continue to do so.  She says I'm the sweetest dog she's ever had the privilege to foster and take care of.  She says you would never know that I've experienced trauma in my life because I have really great manners, I get along with people, I tolerate my new cat friends and I love my new foster brothers and sisters.  I know how to “sit” and “heel”, I'm working on "shake" and I walk very well on a leash.  Some of my favorite things are:  Playing in the back yard, snuggling on the couch and going for walks.

If you're looking for a new family member to make your heart melt, I'm your girl!

Thank you for reading about me!

Love and kisses, McKenzie

Please contact  app@aarfhouston.org for more information about this dog. You can apply online by clicking on Application .

Puppies that are under 4 months old cannot be adopted outside of our Veterinary Service area.  Please call for specific locations.

Children under 8 years old often are not a good match for our puppies and dogs.   In order to protect both, your child and our rescued dogs/puppies from harm, we seldom if ever adopt to families with young children.

Once your application is approved, we will schedule a meet and greet at one of our adoption events.  Thank you for considering a rescue!

The adoption fee includes vaccinations, Bordetella, de-worming, rabies, spay/neuter and microchip. There is a an additional $12.99 fee for Home Again for a lifetime registration of the microchip.

Puppies cannot be adopted outside of the Houston area until they are spay/neutered after they are 4 months old.

It is against the law in the State of Texas for a rescue not to be sterilized so we have to make sure it gets completed and that we have record of it.

NOTE: In our bios, we provide information based on our volunteer's experience with a particular dog; such as temperament, training, and ability to get along with others.

AARF is a 501(c)3 Non Profit, all breed, no kill organization. Our group is always in need of donations in order to continue to give the needed medical care to our rescues. Adoption fees do not begin to cover all of the medical costs. Any donation , no matter how small is a big help and is greatly appreciated. Please help us to continue to help them. Thank you.
