Story
Baby Bat embodies the personality, uniqueness and likeness of the Batman. First, he works alone. No sidekicks or partners. He prefers solitude and his space. Baby Bat has lived with his foster and her dog pack for 5 years, he gets along with them but tolerates them at most. He would do well in a home where he is the only dog, no children, and adults only. Next, Baby Bat is an apex predator. Which means he needs his sleep and food and not to be interrupted or coddled when given either. Baby Bat is not a lap or cuddly dog. Finally, did we mention Baby Bat is a Chihuahua mix? That's a really important detail! Baby Bat is a great and loyal dog seeking a great family to adopt him! Local adoption fee is $200 (in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $400 (includes transport to your area - $50 Temporary Fuel Charge will be added)

Story
TEXAS ADOPTION ONLY Grandpa Lucky I have the weirdest name. What is that? "Grandpa Lucky. Sounds like I had a lot of luck in my short life, but I am not quite sure of all that. I just look like a Grandpa because I have lived outside most of the time and it is hard on a fella. I am only about 6 years old we think. First off, I was fished out of a river and taken to the city dog pound. I can't tell you how I got into the river, but foster mom suspects I had a little help with that. Well, it was lucky that I got fished out, but then I went to the city pound where I had 3 days before my time was up...literally. But then I got lucky again because foster mom saw me and just had to have me to foster so I got a ticket out of there. I was a pretty skinny dude when she got me, and it wasn't too long before she discovered that I love to eat. She noticed that I was having a little trouble walking on my back legs and that wasn't so good so when we got me checked out, it turns out that I have a little compression of my T4 to T6 vertebrae, whatever that is. Not good. But the vet lady said that nothing needed to be done for that so that was lucky. So, when I get a little tired, I hop like a bunny and the other times when I feel good, I walk like a regular dog. I had some tests done on my blood and I have worms living in my heart of all places. I am told that is not good. But it is lucky for me that foster mommy is giving me the medicines to kill those little varmints over time and not all at once. She said it is easier on me if we do it this way. Plus, it is lucky that I get the medicine in a little bit of tasty food that I love. Did I tell you I like to eat? About that, foster mommy tells me I can't gain too much weight, or it will be too hard on my joints and back and that won't be good. Aren't I lucky to have her to take care of me? The one complaint I have with foster mommy is that she doesn't have enough time to let me sleep in her lap during the day. I would like to have a lap in my new forever home and someone who will love me as much as foster mommy does. Because of the medicines that I am taking to kill the worms in my heart, we are looking for a forever home in the San Antonio area so I wouldn't have to travel so far. Besides having a lap to sleep in during the day, I want to sleep in the bed with you at night. I can't jump off the bed though but being with you all the time is what I want. Then I would really feel lucky! $200 Local adoption fee (in Texas)

Story
This is Buddy, and he can't wait to be yours! Buddy is a sweet young Chihuahua mix that started life off as a feral, until he was caught by a sweet and loving foster. Buddy got the good life after that! Spoiled with treats and given so much love he's developed into a great dog. He's a very friendly boy and does great with pretty much everyone. He would do best in a household with an active family. Buddy does tend to bark at smaller animals so he would do best in a household that doesn't have farm animals or other small pets. Dogs and cats he is fine with, though he has not had much experience with cats. Buddy would do well paired with another calm and confident dog. Local adoption fee is $200 (in TX)

Story
Blanca also known as Busy Boots. Once upon a time, there was a house of dogs...lots and lots of dogs. There were so many dogs that the people didn't have time to pet all of us so some of us grew up with the attitude of cats...people are staff and there to feed us and be door openers when we want to go out or come in. I am one of those dogs with "cattitude. I can honestly say that during the whole time at foster mommies house, I have never let her pet me once, except the time she snuck in some pets while I was distracted but when I figured out it was her, I quickly ran off and looked at her, like "that will never happen again! and promptly cleaned her "cooties off my skin! I must admit that life here is good. I have a couple of other chihuahuas my size to hang out with, and I also have taken on the responsibility to protect and guide puppies and kittens when they come here. Especially when they are my size or smaller. (I am about 7 pounds now but won't let foster mom weigh me). I came here with the name of Blanca which means white in Spanish. What a dumb name for a black and tan dog. Foster mom calls me Busy Boots and honestly that suits me better. I must be in the know about everything. New dog comes in, I am there. A new toy or bed comes in, I am there. Anything that seems to put the kittens in jeopardy, I will grab them and drag them to my bed to protect them. If any of the other chihuahuas or puppies have a problem or lonely, I snuggle with them until they feel better. And I am the protector of them all. There is a big dog here that I get along with fine. He is 97#, but when he is outside, I will bark at him from inside the patio window to make sure my group knows that I am protecting them and looking out for them. (He is just a big marshmallow but the chihuahuas think I am brave to protect them!) Anyhow, if you need someone to watch over your bunch of dogs or cats and be their dog manager with "cattitude, just let me know. I may never let you touch me or snuggle up to you, but I will listen and be a good dog.
