Hi there, my name is May, and just a few months ago I was on the euthanasia list at a San Antonio Animal Shelter, along with my 3 puppies. I had basically given up hope since nobody wanted to adopt me and time was running out when, bless my lucky stars, 4 Little Paws Rescue saved us. It was a miracle. Next thing I knew we were moving into a foster home so I could finish nursing my puppies and be well taken care of in the process. Today, my job is finished, the puppies have all been adopted, and I am all set to find my future and just be a carefree dog again. I’m only 3 years old, I weigh 33 lbs and I’m a Boxer/Terrier mix, incredibly sweet and well deserving of a life fully lived.
My foster mom says I am a girl who enjoys life and seizes every moment to either play or nap. That may sound funny, but I am in love with napping on something cushy like a couch, a cozy chair, my fluffy dog bed that I sleep on each night, or being snuggled up beside you when I’m all tuckered out. I love playtime, chew toys, walks, and car rides, exploring my surroundings, and new places when we travel. I have a medium energy level and a go-with-the-flow attitude. I can be shy when meeting strangers, I’m friendly with children, and I get along well with other dogs. Sometimes I like to play on my own, but I also like having people around. I love bully sticks, milk bones, and squeaky toys and will sometimes cleverly take the squeaker out. I’m affectionate and share kisses and I’m also good with having my own space. I am housebroken, smart, and easily trainable with doggy treats. I will be moving to the Northeast to find a forever home and I’m already dreaming about some fun new adventures and wondering who will adopt me.
* We encourage you to send us an email with your #1, #2, and #3 choices, and we will be happy to help you find a pup to complete your family! Also, please continue watching our listings as we post new dogs multiple times a week. There is no need to fill out another application, just let us know what other dogs you are interested in as they come up.

Please DO NOT apply unless the entire family / household is on board with adopting one of our dogs. We must receive an application for you to move forward in the process. Thoughtful direct emails are welcome and will be answered. However, an application is still a necessary step. We want to make sure we find our dogs a perfect fit with a family so both the dog and the family are happy. We keep our dogs with fosters once we get them out of shelters for a little bit to learn and understand their personalities. Our relationship with families doesn't stop at adoption! We are always available for any follow up questions and are happy to be a resource as you and your new pet settle into a routine.
