Howdy folks! I’m an easygoing, good-natured, big ol’ Boxer/Terrier mix named Chopper, and sadly, I look like a bait dog. I’m young, about 10 months old, about 60 lbs, and like many dogs in San Antonio, Texas, I was dumped in the median of a busy highway. It was terrifying to say the least, and bless my lucky stars when an incredibly brave lady dodged traffic on foot to save me. I was thrilled to see her and let her carry me back to her car, and now she is my foster mom! Yep, I wasn't chipped or wearing a collar, so 4 Little Paws Rescue took me in. I am now neutered, chipped, and vaccinated, and the scars on my face are starting to fade.
Turns out I’m a pussycat, sweet and gentle, almost motherly, with a litter of puppies who live here. My foster mom says I’m a lover, not a fighter, and I enjoy snuggling beside her when we relax on the couch watching TV. I make friends easily with everyone, dogs, and humans, and I was only curious when I met a kitty cat. I know how to sit on command, and I LOVE doggy toys. I am very well-behaved, fully housebroken, only bark to alert, and I taught myself how to use the doggy door by watching the other dogs. I love going for walks and road trips, and I am a very good listener, giving you my full attention when spoken to. I’m just a teddy bear and ever so grateful to be safe and sound and loved. My future looks bright, and I am totally looking forward to meeting the lucky East Coast family who gets to adopt me and make me their forever dog! Inquire about me today!
* 4 Little Paws is based in CT. We adopt in many different states along the East Coast. Transport costs are included in the adoption fee. If you are located outside the states we typically adopt to, we have options to get the dog of your dreams to your location.

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.
