Story
FosterMeet Meadow! This little sweetheart is about 10 months old and weighs just 10 pounds—she might fill out another pound or two, but she’s likely done growing. With her scruffy coat and teddy bear looks, Meadow could easily be mistaken for a living stuffed animal! We think she’s a Cairn Terrier mix, and she has the charming personality to match.Meadow is incredibly mellow and gentle. She gets along wonderfully with other dogs and loves being around people. She’s currently settling into her new foster home, so we’ll have more updates soon—but so far, she’s proving to be an easy, lovable companion.If you’re looking for a calm and cuddly pup who’s cute as a button, Meadow might be your perfect match! IMPORTANT: Please read all below, especially if you live outside of Texas, which is where our rescue is located.Apply to adopt on our website: https://www.charmingpetrescue.org/adoptAll of our animals are spayed/neutered, microchipped, and up to date on shots.ALL of our animals are located in Boerne, TX, but transport after adoption is available to other states for a $300 fee for dogs or an additional fee varying by location for cats. If you are seeing our pets posted in your state, that's because you live near a transport stop, they are not currently at that location.

Those are currently the only options they offer to make this clear, so we put this description we've put at the bottom to explain it.

Story
Meet Monarch!As delicate and sweet as her name suggests, Monarch is a gentle soul looking for a soft place to land. This 1.5-year-old, 15-pound Cairn Terrier/Schnauzer mix is quiet, shy, and incredibly submissive.She’s one of the 10 dogs we took in after their owner went into the hospital, and while she’s still adjusting to all the changes, she’s already showing her kind and loving nature. Monarch is fantastic with other dogs, rides wonderfully in the car, and has a calm, peaceful presence that makes her easy to fall in love with.She’s the kind of pup who blossoms with patience and love—and will reward you with a lifetime of loyalty. If you’re looking for a quiet companion with a heart full of sweetness, Monarch may be your perfect match.IMPORTANT: Please read all below, especially if you live outside of Texas, which is where our rescue is located.Apply to adopt on our website: https://www.charmingpetrescue.org/adoptAll of our animals are spayed/neutered, microchipped, and up to date on shots.ALL of our animals are located in Boerne, TX, but transport after adoption is available to other states for a $300 fee for dogs or an additional fee varying by location for cats.
