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 Pug 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. Currently, Buddy is on bedrest after completing heartworm treatment so he needs lots of love and patience while he's resting and recovering. 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)

Pepe is a teeny tiny chihuahua whose tail never stops wagging! He only weighs 6lbs! He is a happy little guy who likes to be with you and snuggle under blankets, typical chihuahua style. He is not a barker and he LOVES food! We are not sure if he is potty trained or not. He gets along well with everyone. He is fully vetted except he is getting a blood panel work up on July 24, 2024 for a baseline for the future. He has also had a dental cleaning done recently. Please email stmartinsanimalrescue@hotmail.com for an adoption or foster application.

Story
Hey everyone! I'm Snoopy, the cutest 10-year-old, 12 lb. Chihuahua/Corgi on the block, and I'm on the lookout for a new home. Could you be my new pawrent? Here's a little bit about me: I might be small, but I've got a big personality! I adore attention but can also be a bit protective of my family. I'm not a fan of loud noises, loud men, strangers, or that pesky vacuum, but who is? I've lived with kids before, but I prefer older children. So, a home without little ones would suit me best. I'm house-trained, leash-trained, and crate-trained-basically, I'm a really good boy! Oh, and did I mention I LOVE to snuggle? I used to snooze with my human kid at night, and I'd love a home that lets me do the same. I also like to be the king of the castle, so I'd probably prefer to be the only dog. Other dogs just aren't my cup of tea - unless they are super respectful that is. I enjoy exploring the house and I'm fine being alone for a little while. So, if you need to run errands, I'll be waiting for you when you get back! I also really enjoy going for walks, so a pawrent who can take me out for strolls would be awesome. Oh and I LOVE car rides too. I think I'd do best with someone who's retired and can give me all the attention I deserve, but hey, I love people of all ages! I just want a nice, calm home, just me, myself, and my amazing owner. I just had my dental, all vaccines and bloodwork and am ready to start my next chapter.

Story
We welcome you to meet Howard the troll! He is an elusive creature, rarely seen unless you try to cross his bridge, or sit at the dining room table that he's living under. Much like a real troll Howard can be somewhat hostile towards humans. Howard would much prefer to be out in wilderness, he honestly could have been a feral cat living in a colony somewhere wild and free. Howard loves other dogs and is great with cats but, unless you are some kind of super human who really works for his love he's likely to avoid you. He’s also much like a teenager who doesn’t want anything to do with you, unless of course he wants something. Howard didn’t have the best start to life, he lived his first few years in a hoarding situation. That is why he feels most comfortable with other animals and thinks humans are jerks. I mean really, can you blame him? With the right super person the best of Howard will come out. Howard needs a home that understands that he may never fully come around, that he won't be their lap dog or snuggle buddy. He would love to just live in a corner of you house, spend time in your yard, play with your dogs and eat your food. If you are looking for an awkward roommate who you only see every now and again, Howard is the weird dude you're looking for!

Sweet pumpkin girl had a really rough start to life which makes her not trust people right away. She so totally wants to be loved. Once she trusts you she will give you little kisses and come up to you. She does not like being picked up but will listen to commands like crate or go inside/out side. She really is a sweet girl. She is great with other dogs and cats. Kids are fine if they don’t chase her. She would love to just hang out with her people.

Hi I’m pickle! I may be small but boy am I mighty! If you are looking for a big dog in a little dog body, I’m your girl! My foster mom says I’m fearless! I love to play with all my foster siblings who range in size from small to large. Being small does not stop me. Whatever my people are doing I’m right there with them in the middle of it. I think everyone is my best friend. I’m working on potty training currently and doing pretty well for a young girl.

Hi my name is Rupert! I love snuggling on the couch with my family as well as being playful with other dogs of all sizes, little like me and BIG BIG like my foster brother. I am also friendly with children. I’m looking for a loving home that understands how to be gentler with small guys like me, and is willing to spend HOURS snuggling with me. I am a very happy pup and love my people so much. I do well in a crate when it's nap time, bed time, or I have to stay home alone. When it comes to potty, I may have some accidents in the beginning, when I'm learning the ropes, but once I learn a new routine I am aces! If you're looking for a nice guy and not a bad boy, I'm your man! 😉
