Rizzo's Info...

Breed: Shepherd (Unknown Type) Mix Color: Black - With Tan, Yellow Or Fawn Age: Adult
Size: Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg) Sex: Female
Rizzo's Story...
Rizzo was found in a public park with one of her puppies. She was protective at first but it only took her a minute to figure out that we were there to help her and her puppy. She is very very loving and gets attatched to people very quickly. She sometimes gets stressed when she is left alone, but we are working on this with her and are seeing progress. I have had the pleasure of fostering Rizzo in my home and she is the sweetest girl. Come and meet her today if you want some everlasting love! Rizzo would love to just lay around the house, preferrably with her head in your lap.

Our Adoption Process...
If one of our dogs has caught your eye we invite you to come and meet them in person. Since we are a relatively small rescue operation it is best if you give us a call before coming in so we can make sure that there is enough staff to make your introduction as seamless as possible. We suggest bringing in all family members who would be living with the pet including any other dogs, we think it is important that everyone is a part of this decision. If everyone is on board then you can fill out an adoption application and if all goes well you can take your new best friend home the same day. If for any reason the adoption is not working out you can bring the dog back within the first 10 days and get your full adoption fee refunded. All of our dogs will be fixed, vaccinated, and microchipped before they go home.
We Serve the Following Cities, Towns, and/or Counties...
Hello, I am the Animal Care Officer for the beautiful City of Alamo Heights which is located near downtown San Antonio, Texas. We rescue, rehabilitate, and re-home stray and abandoned dogs and cats in our city. Many of our dogs came to us abused and neglected but we believe everyone deserves a second chance.

Why Adoption is a Great Option

Rizzo, a San Antonio Shepherd (Unknown Type) dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Shepherd (Unknown Type) for sale in San Antonio, or seeking a Shepherd (Unknown Type) dog from a breeder in San Antonio.

  1. Rescues and shelter volunteers in San Antonio already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
  2. On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a San Antonio breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
  3. You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Shepherd (Unknown Type) breeders who help with Shepherd (Unknown Type) rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in San Antonio paves the way for another one to be saved.
