Here's what the humans have to say about me:
APPLICATION LINK: https://shaynesrescue.com/adoption-application-pet-central-satx/
We must have an application to move forward.
In foster in Aberdeen, WA
CAROLINA is a beautiful and happy Black Lab mix. She is likely 4 yo but you wouldn't know it. She is happy and active. Wants to go everywhere with everyone. She gets along great with other dogs even though she could be a bit overwhelming with her enthusiasm. She will be great for a family with kids...lots of kids. She arrived to ACS in Laredo with a litter of pups (old enough to wean) so they were separated. She was skinny with dull hair... and she was an adult black dog, little chance for her in a high kill TX shelter:( I was asked...begged...by one of the ladies who helps there to take her. I couldn't say no. After I received her, she went immediately to be spayed then spent 2 weeks recovering from the spay and getting good nutrition. What a difference. She then got to join the other dogs in the "Big Dog Pen." She started a new life of FUN! What a difference! Now it's time for her next stage in life... a family (or person) to call her own!! She came so close to having her life cut short... Now it's time to LIVE and move on.
CAROLINA has not had much training...but her great personality makes up for it. She is not appropriate for an apartment. She is too large with too much energy. She would be excellent for the active person that lives to bicycle, boat, swim... What A DOG!!!

Adoption Fees
The adoption fee includes transportation to WA/OR. All pups and dogs are fully vetted, spayed/neutered, microchipped, dewormed, have a negative heart worm test for all dogs over 6 months at time of transport, have a health certificate, and have all age-appropriate vaccinations. Some dogs/pups have additional medical, including but not limited to FHO, ACL, hernias, dental, and other vetting.
All medical records will be provided to the adopter at the time they pick up their dog.
HOW ABOUT FOSTERING! If you are not in the position to afford a puppy/dog but still want to be an important factor in dog rescue, we recommend fostering. Fostering ensures you incur no vet bills and no boarding fees while saving a life and enjoying the love of a canine companion. We are always in need of good fosters. You can sign up to foster at this link: https://shaynesrescue.com/foster-application/
This is a post on behalf of Pet Central SATX Rescue, headquartered in San Antonio, Texas, where there are over 350,000 homeless pets. We have hundreds of puppies/dogs available so there really is no need to apply anywhere else. Also, one application is good even if you are interested in several different dogs...one application no matter which one you choose.
Thank you for choosing to adopt a rescue pup/dog. We firmly believe there is NO breed other than "rescue" for all species. Thank you for being part of the village it takes to save these precious lives.
