Bless you and your friend and everyone else involved in saving these darlings.

OMG - they are the sweetest! Blessings to all of you who saved them and a hex on whoever dumped them. What is wrong with people?

I second these remarks. and thank you Bestyears, on behalf of dog lovers everywhere.❤️

You are amazing--what a story! The puppies are absolutely adorable, but what puppies aren't LOL! They look like they have beagle or boxer or lab in them. Whatever, they are very lucky that you found them!!!

Aww, it’s a whole rainbow of puppies, how lucky they are to have found you! (or how lucky YOU are!)

Why would anyone dump 15 puppies! Thank you for rescuing them and finding them good homes You rock!

Thank you for helping these sweet puppies find homes — beautiful.

Did the police have any luck finding the animal abuser? Leave the perp in a hot car for a few days. Grrrr.

Why would anyone dump 15 puppies? Because some people are truly evil.

Petalique -the police don’t even bother, honestly. There is so much mistreatment of animals in Texas. That’s part of the reason I’m so glad 13 of these pups are headed out of state.

They’re all so adorable.

Thank you for helping save these precious babies. I hope they all have wonderful, loving lives with their new families. It sounds like they will. ❤️

Thank you for sharing the happy news and sweet pics with us. :)

What a happy story! Thank you for sharing and saving these puppers.

Wow, amazing! Poor Rick. :(

Amazing story,Best. Thank you for rushing invto help.❤️

Thank you for rescuing these precious puppies and giving them a second chance ❤️🐾

Oh my. What a darling bunch those puppies are! I would take Rick in a New York minute if I lived nearby-east coast unfortunately. He is adorable. They all are actually. Thanks for sharing a bit of joy today.

What a sweet, sweet stroy! And those pups!!

Cyn -all of the puppies are being transported around the country. Rick is my daughter’s favorite. Let me know if you are interested 😄.

Bestyears what a wonderful start you have provided for these cute puppies, definitely a happy puppy story! Thank you for your efforts on their behalf!

Oh my❤️

Bestyears, are you working with volunteers who relay them to their final destination?

Did the rescue groups line up the new owners ?

Thank you for becoming involved and providing care!

❤️ 🐾 - You and your friend are truly special people!

Look at those fat little tummies! Wonderful work.

In answer to questions: As soon as we got rescue backing (which is pretty straightforward if you can foster), the rescues have taken care of all their medical needs. The rescues also give a first look at the applications and then we face-timed with them. We had the option (and exercised it) to turn down anyone we had reservations about). One of the rescues owns two large charter buses, which are outfitted inside with kennels, all accessible from the inside of the vehicle. They leave Houston with two volunteers on board. one starts driving and the other tends to the animals. So they don’t stay at a hotel or anything. the second person sleeps and then takes over the driving. And they do a big circuit to get everybody to where they belong. The other Rescue has a bit of a smaller transit van, but it’s a similar deal.

Fosters and rescuers are truly special people. Bless you, Bestyears, for positively influencing not only the lives of these pups, but their new families, too.

Such precious babies, and to think what would have happened to them had you not found. Love a story with a happy ending.

Such cute puppies! Love that they have loving homes. Hoping Rick will find his forever people! ❤️ ❤️ ❤️

How adorable. Puppies are a lot of work. Thanks fot saving their little lives! A pox on whoever dumped them.

Bestyears, sigh. Showed DH the pup. Enthused about what a cutie he is. Mentioned that Sam the Dog (9 years old) really needs a buddy. Stated that he would be housetrained way before cold weather arrives. Now I am searching for an attorney and a new place for DH to live. Sigh again. SO unfair.

ETA: Next step is to show him real estate sales he might accept (cheap). Son is a realtor, so maybe I will involve him. Sheesh.

They are so cute! And such happy puppy tummies!

It really is embarrassing that Texas has such a problem with stray and dumped dogs and cats, especially where there are so many spay and neuter clinics. I'm sure many or most that are turned loose or dumped are because people find they cannot afford proper care for them. I don't know about Harris County, but Montgomery County's shelter charges an owner surrender fee. I had to pay the fee once after I found a puppy after a storm, took it to get scanned and took care of it while looking for an owner. After 7 days, the county considers you the owner. Never fear: I paid the fee, continued to foster her, took her to adoption events and then paid the adoption fee to keep her. The ultimate foster fail. I'd love to foster some puppies, but my track record scares me. Glad all these found great care and new homes (I'm sure that last one soon will).

Oh my goodness, they are so cute. You are a wonderful, giving person to do this work.

What a basket of cuteness! How anyone could be so cruel to the mother dog as well as the puppies she bears. The res ue and outcome of finding that many adoptees is incredible. c

What a great story, thank you for sharing it 🥰

During COVID we adopted our boy from a GSD rescue in Beaumont, Texas. It was facilitated through a group very much like Bestyears described. He came on a bus to just this side of the Canadian border and we picked him up there.

When we applied to adopt we specified we wanted a GSD, and they put us in touch with the woman who ran the rescue in Texas. We followed her on FB and watched all of her videos, etc. until we found the boy that clicked for us. Then she worked with the transporter to get him to us.

What we learned along the way about conditions in Texas echos what Bestyears & Lascatx have said. It's very sad. At the time the rescue was overcapacity, and she was getting calls everyday for owner surrenders, strays picked up and taken to the shelter, on and on. I remember at the time we met her, she was in the process of taking in a group of dogs - including several puppies and a male thought to be aggressive, from a "breeder" that had died and left his disabled wife with all of these dogs she couldn't take care of. They were basically starving in the yard. The male turned out not to be so aggressive once he was untied, fed a few good meals and treated kindly. A few of those dogs came to Canada with our boy.

I don't know how she handled it emotionally.

This is our Waylon. He loves his pool.

Blessings to you Bestyears! They are all adorable and you have really set them up for the best possible life.

Waylon is incredibly handsome! And I love his name. What a great story.
