Story
Meet Oscar 🐾 Oscar is a one-of-a-kind little guy who is part Dachshund, part Chihuahua part Pittie, part mystery, and 100% lovable! With his long body and short little legs, he’s basically a hot dog with a Pittie smile. 😂❤️ Oscar is super affectionate, playful, and cuddly. At just barely a year old he has plenty of energy and loves to play, but when playtime is over, he’s more than happy to curl up with his favorite person. He also does wonderfully with other dogs and sleeps like a champ in his crate. 💤 He’s mostly potty trained and is learning more every day. He’s also apparently pursuing a career in interior design—he loves rearranging the dog beds and toys to create what he believes is the perfect layout. 😂 Oscar does have a mischievous side. He LOVES food and may occasionally jump on tables or go looking for snacks. In fact, this little genius has figured out how to open Tupperware! We believe some of this comes from his history of food insecurity, so he’s still learning that he doesn’t have to worry about where his next meal is coming from. ❤️ Oscar is sweet, silly, energetic, affectionate, and just the right amount of naughty. He’s looking for a family who will give him patience, structure, cuddles, playtime, and most importantly, the chance to finally feel safe and loved. Oscar may rearrange your furniture, steal your heart, and possibly figure out your Tupperware… but we promise he’s worth it. 🐶❤️ Local adoption fee is $350 (in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $650 (includes transport to your area)

Story
Peanut has a big dog personality and if he sees other dogs, he gets super excited, and the yipping sounds scary, but he just wants to play!! He's a nipper and he likes to jump on you out of excitement and although he LOVES kids, he should be in.a home with older kids Peanut is still young, and has plenty of energy to play and run.He has been known to be a runner- He will take off and think, it's a GAME and it will be hard to catch him, so careful at the doors nd fences ;) But smart sweet pup loves kisses and lay on your lap . He walks good on a leash i put 2 one on harness and collar since I don't want him to get loose. (harnesses are too easy to get out of, so a martingale collar is his best collar) He can upset a bigger or smaller dog if they don't have a tolerance for nippiness.In the face kinda of thing he loved to play and he runs super fast lol 😆 they would have to be extra careful that he never gets out of front.Door or takes off he laughing fast 😅 Poor little guy almost got run over on these big streets all alone, and we NEVER want that to happen to him again. So now you know more about the firecracker named Peanut. He is a doll!! ADOPT....DON'T SHOP!! Local adoption fee is $300(in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $550 (includes transport to your area)

Story
👑 Meet Princess — Her Happily Ever After Is Finally Her Turn! 👑 Princess may be a little girl, but she has already been through a lot. This sweet 3-year-old Rat Terrier/Chihuahua mix was dumped in a neighborhood and was fortunate enough to be found by a kind woman who took her in. Princess had her three babies on that wonderful lady's deck, and after coming into rescue, she devoted herself completely to raising them. Now her puppies are growing up and finding families of their own—and Princess's job as a mom is finally finished. ❤️ At just 8 pounds, Princess is a petite little girl with a sweet personality. She's quiet, rarely barks, and loves people. She gets along well with the dogs in her foster home and is crate trained. Her potty training is a little rusty. After spending an unknown amount of time living outside before rescue, Princess is still learning that inside is home. When she's not in her crate, she will use potty pads, so her forever family will need to be patient while she gets those skills polished up. 🥰 Princess does have a little Rat Terrier instinct that we need to respect. She will chase the resident cat when she sees one. Thankfully, she's never caught the cat, but because of this, a home without cats is strongly recommended. If there is a cat in the home, they would need to be kept safely separated. Princess is up to date on her vaccines, heartworm negative, and scheduled for her spay surgery on September 8th. 🩷 After spending her early years being someone's discarded dog and then giving everything she had to her puppies, Princess is ready for something she's never had before—a family that's hers forever. She doesn't need a palace. She doesn't need a fancy life. She just needs someone who will look at this tiny 8-pound girl and say: “You're home, Princess. You're not being left behind again.” 👑❤️ Local adoption fee is $300(in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $550 (includes transport to your area)
