Story
Please contact Jamesa (roxysrescue@yahoo.com), 713-882-2610 for more information about this pet.FREDA is a 9 month old, 9 pounds terrier of some sort.  We really cannot figure out what she is mixed with.  I probably should do a DNA test on her.  She looks just like her mother who is a few pounds smaller.  FREDA was owner surrendered as the pregnancy was an accident litter. The word that comes to me when I think about FREDA is 'soft', her coat is soft, her attitude/temperament is soft, she takes treats soft, she plays soft and her overall behavior is just soft.  She is a sweetheart of a dog who plays with all of the other foster dogs, she is kind of submissive but not timid as she wrestles and can hold her on while playing. FREDA loves everyone, gives kisses and loves to snuggle even when there is really no space around my legs, she squeezes in and find a spot!  I will have to get better pictures of her but she is always moving and playing.  She would make a great family dog, she will remain a small breed scruffy dog.  There are no cats in the home so we do not know how she would get along with them but she is just super soft so we cannot imagine her not getting along with a cat, she'll probably try to play with a cat. If you would like to adopt FREDA, please submit an application on the website below.  Feel free to call me anytime.  Thank you. www.roxysk9rescue.org     ADOPTION FEE & APPLICATION REQUIRED   Roxxy's K-9 Rescue does not have a shelter, all of our dogs are raised in foster homes.  Each dog comes  spay/neutered (fixed), rabies shots appropriate for their age, and dewormed twice.  The dogs are up to date on vaccinations according to their age at the time of adoption.  They are microchipped, heartworm tested and on monthly flea/tick and heartworm preventative.  ALL OF THIS IS INCLUDED IN THE ADOPTION FEE. We transport across the United States. Medical records will come with each dog at the time of adoption. Our organization is run by volunteers/foster parents, please be patient to give us time to respond to your emails and/or phone calls.  We will reply to you.  Thank you.         October 17, 2026, 10:47 am

Story
Welcome to the Annie Eleanor Show, where entertainment is guaranteed and admission is simply being in the same room. This girl is scruff and sweetness, enjoyable all on her own, but give her a toy and she’ll toss it, chase it, pounce on it, and do the whole thing again. You’re welcome to join in, but she has the entertainment covered. And when the fun is over, she will immediately be ready for a little love. Go watch Annie Eleanor on YouTube for a peek at her toy-tossing talents and sweet personality, then come right back. This little sidekick is looking for love in the Pacific Northwest: https://youtu.be/fa7vvr7KeOY Annie is ready to trade her Texas address for a Pacific Northwest welcome mat. To put it simply, Texas doesn’t agree with this little lady’s skin, and her veterinary team believes the PNW will be a better fit for her comfort. Her scruff is making a comeback, in the softest possible way, and she’s doing well with food that agrees with her. Her team will share her menu and what helps her feel good- nothing complicated, just a cheat sheet. Annie will handle packing the toys. What we love about Annie is how comfortable she makes being together feel. She meets new people easily, welcomes attention, and is happy to get right to the part where the love is. She’s playful and funny, but she’s also snuggly. Watching her enjoy herself is a treat and having her come over for some love afterward feels so good! She brings that same confidence to her canine friendships. Annie meets new dogs with ease and enjoys having a playmate. She would fit nicely with another friendly dog, though she certainly doesn’t need someone directing her social calendar. If her friends are taking a break, she can grab a toy and carry on with her own plans. There is something so endearing about a dog who can throw her own toys and look so delighted when she catches them. Annie also has good basic leash skills and rides wonderfully in the car. A walk around the neighborhood, a ride with her favorite person, a little time together on the couch—she’s good company for the everyday things. And that’s a big part of her charm. She’s fun to spend time with, easy to include, and always happy to be share some affection. Estimated to be about five years old, Annie has the look of a Border Terrier, a Norfolk Terrier, or perhaps a very successful collaboration between several scruffy little ancestors. In rescue, age and breed are our best guesses but whatever the family tree, it produced a pretty adorable little dog. We’d love to see Annie with someone who gets as much joy out of her as we do. Someone who will appreciate her toy-pouncing performances, make room when she comes over for love, and enjoys having this sweet little face looking back at them. She has plenty of personality, affection to share, and hopefully soon, a whole new corner of the country to call home. Ready to make Annie part of your family?

Story
Please contact Candace (ccrnewengland@gmail.com) for more information about this pet.Some puppies are simply easy to picture in your life, and beautiful Winnie is one of those special girl puppies.Can you picture a happy little face following you into the backyard, chasing a ball, exploring every corner, and then coming back to you because being near her people is really the best part? That is Winnie. She is playful without being wild, curious without being reckless, and affectionate without needing to be glued to you every second. She is a puppy who wants to be involved in life with her family.Winnie was born July 11 as one of twelve puppies to a beautiful red, scruffy Border Terrier mix mama. She has been raised in a wonderful foster environment surrounded by children, other dogs, and adults who have handled, cuddled, and socialized her from the beginning. Those early experiences have helped Winnie become a confident, loving puppy who is ready to continue learning with her forever family.We think Winnie will be an especially wonderful fit for a family who enjoys being together and wants a dog who can grow up alongside them. She would love a fenced yard for those backyard adventures, a family willing to play fetch and teach her new things, and people who will appreciate her sweet, thoughtful nature. She is smart and eager to learn, so a family who enjoys training and watching a puppy discover her talents will have a lot of fun with her.Winnie is expected to grow into a beautiful 45–50 pound girl with a short coat. She is still very much a puppy, which means she is also in the “everything goes in my mouth” phase. Fingers are currently competing with chew toys for her attention, so we feel older children, 10+, would be the best fit. She will need patient adults who can give her consistent guidance and redirect that puppy enthusiasm toward appropriate toys.But underneath those puppy teeth is a girl with an enormous capacity to love. Winnie is thoughtful, affectionate, playful, and wonderfully curious. She is going to be the kind of dog who learns your routines, knows when it is time to play and when it is time to settle down, and eventually becomes the companion who seems to have always belonged there.If you are looking for a puppy who can be your backyard playmate, your adventure buddy, your student, your shadow, and eventually your best friend, Winnie may be exactly the girl you have been waiting for.Contact Critter Cavalry Rescue at ccrtennessee@gmail.com     October 29, 2026, 8:32 am
