Story
Meet Frito! This gentle, curly-coated sweetheart has so much love to give. After arriving at the SNIPSA office from Atascosa Animal Allies, all she needed was a good bath to start opening up to us. Calm and ever so loving, Frito has all of the SNIPSA office fangirling over her cute looks and sweet disposition. Energetic, good-natured, and famously friendly, Border Terriers are known to be great family dogs. Frito’s got the personality—and the signature scruff. Chihuahuas are known to be incredibly loyal and to love attention, so get ready for some one-on-one snuggles with your new favorite gal. While her small size makes it possible for her to adapt to apartment life, it’s also important that Frito finds a home environment where she can get a lot of exercise throughout the day to release some of that extra energy (though, we think 90% of it goes to keeping her tail wagging 24/7). Her secret? She doesn’t actually like Fritos—but she’d be over the moon if you threw her a treat and gave a little scratch behind the ears! This girl is eager and easy to please. Who wouldn’t want to snuggle up with this bug in a rug? Searching for a sweet girl who can be your forever companion? Apply to adopt Frito today!

Story
Located in San Antonio Texas Meet Gerti the Border Terrier! She is our newest addition. She was found running the streets with her Dogo Argentino pal. The family that found them spent weeks trying to find their owners with no success. Gerti was not spayed and did not have a microchip. The good new is, she is now spayed, microchipped, and has had all her vaccines! The bad news is, she is heartworm positive. All though we are all very bummed about this she has a fabulous veterinarian that is taking care of her! She has started Gerti on her heartworm treatment protocol and says there is no reason why she can’t find a new home while she is undergoing treatment! Now we just need to find her that perfect place to call home! If you are interested in Gerti let us know.

Meet Grace! Grace is a Border Terrier/Pug blend she may be 4 years old and 24 pounds, but she's convinced she's still a puppy!

Story
Harley is a pretty girl with a gentle heart. She may be a little shy when meeting new people, but it's clear she wants to connect. Give her the time and space to build trust, and you'll be rewarded with one of the sweetest companions you could ever hope to meet. Once Harley feels safe, her affectionate side shines. She loves climbing into a trusted person's lap, gazing into their eyes, and soaking up all the love and attention she can get. Harley is at a wonderful stage of life—still playful and ready for adventures, yet happily well beyond the puppy phase. She also does well with other dogs who match her energy. We believe Harley's best days are still ahead, and that the family willing to give her a little patience will be rewarded with a loyal, devoted friend for years to come. To set up a no-obligation meet and greet with Harley, please visit wimberleywagrescue.org and fill out an application. Harley is ready for her second chance—and she just might be the perfect addition to your family.

Story
5 months old… Coco is a sweet and loving dog. She loves to cuddle and watch cartoons with dogs. She likes to run and play outside, playing fetch and walks.So I’ve had Coco on the rehome for about a year because I have such a busy schedule. I have a daughter who finished high school she’s going off to Texas Tech. We’re doing a lot of traveling. My job has me traveling. I don’t have any family members here where I live so there’s no one that I can really rely on to care for her because of that fact she is so precious. Coco is a sweetheart. She is truly a lovable, maybe overly affectionate dog but very active very loving very receptive easy to teach. I love her so much but I’m 55 years old. I’ve raised three girls my last leaving now and I just don’t have the energy to give her what she needs as well as what she requires. A family of children would be great for her because she loves kids. She’s not much of a guard dog, but people think she is because of her bark it’s quite aggressive.

These pups are in Terrell Hills, Texas too!

Story
Bonita is a remarkable dog with a remarkable story to tell. Bonita and her friend, Dylan, were found in downtown San Antonio in December of 2025, vulnerable but remarkably friendly. Just a month after taking them in, Bonita and Dylan’s caretaker passed away unexpectedly, and a family friend stepped in to continue feeding and playing with the dogs. They frequently traveled across the city to visit Bonita and Dylan, who were then living together in a backyard, before taking them to SNIPSA for their respective surgeries and vaccinations. Their temporary caretakers had animals of their own already, and every boarding facility and shelter they checked was already at capacity. Desperately wanting these affectionate pups to get the second chance they deserved in a place they knew would be safe, they turned to SNIPSA. Now an official member of our adoption program, Bonita—lovingly called Bonnie—has returned to SNIPSA, this time to join our rescue program to find her forever home! In foster care, Bonita is described as a happy-go-lucky girl, playful, and an absolute office favorite. In fact, her caretakers noted that she shares the biggest tail wags whenever she greets new people. To add to her long list of green flags, Bonita sports the following traits: Happy-go-lucky and playful personality. Friendly with other dogs. Master at posing for portraits. Great on walks. Well-behaved in her crate. Generates the biggest tail wags for new friends. This unexpected tale of a sweet pup won over our hearts in the blink of an eye––and her personality keeps us falling deeper. After going through so much instability, we’re confident that this fido is ready to settle down in her forever home. So, what are you waiting for? Your perfect dog is with Bonita; all that’s left to do is complete her adoption application!

Story
A Note from Boo’s Foster: From the moment Boo entered the program, I got a firsthand look at his incredible, fun-loving personality and just had to foster him. He has been the perfect housemate to my dog and three cats, fitting in swimmingly with the whole pack. Because of my role as Administrator, he’s also a regular fixture at the office, where he treats everyone like a best friend—he truly has never met a stranger and is an absolute crowd favorite. What makes Boo so special is his loyalty. He is incredibly devoted to his person, and I know he is going to form such a deep bond with his forever adopter. He brings so much joy to the room with his playful energy, especially when he finds a toy... and the bigger it is, the happier he is! I know people might feel hesitant about his incontinence, but I always tell them: we established a routine, and that's all it takes. His huge personality shines so bright that you forget about the rest. I know his perfect match is out there, and I’ll be right here rooting him on until they find each other. Apply for Boo today!

Story
Pick your poison... Tito or Bacardi? Tito is a charming little Norwich Terrier mix who may seem shy at first, but give him a moment and you'll discover a wiggly, kiss-giving lap dog with the sweetest heart. He loves being hyped up, is endlessly curious, and looks just like a tiny fox. Bacardi is an independent Chihuahua mix queen who knows what she likes: sunshine, fresh grass, tasty snacks, and gentle affection. She'll happily explore by your side and, if you respect her boundaries, she'll become your loyal bestie. Both pups enjoy walks and have shown great interest in other dogs, but they'll need proper introductions with future furry siblings. Which one is your perfect match? Come meet Tito and Bacardi today!
