Story

Meet Tex Just over SIX pounds of pure tail-wagging happiness packed into one tiny, adorable package! This little guy is a professional snuggler who loves nothing more than wrapping himself around your neck and soaking up all the love. If you’re looking for a shadow, Tex is your guy! He’ll happily follow you everywhere and make sure you never have to do anything alone. Tex is still a puppy, so he's working on his potty-training skills. He can be a little shy or skittish when meeting new people or when things move too quickly, but once he feels comfortable, his friendly, attention-loving personality shines! He's great with dogs of all sizes and does well with cats, too. Tex came into rescue with some skin issues, but he's on the road to recovery and feeling better every day. He's believed to be a Chug (Chihuahua/Pug mix), although he seems to have inherited more of the Chihuahua body style. He's expected to stay a pretty little guy! If you have room in your heart and a spot around your neck for a professional cuddle buddy, Tex is ready to wrap himself right around you! Local adoption fee is $350(in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $650 (includes transport to your area)

Details

Good with dogs, Not good with cats, House-trained,

Story

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Please contact SSRR (Adoptions@southernstatesrescuedrottweilers.org) for more information about this pet. Axel is a sweet, loving, attentive, playful, silly young man with the cutest curly tail. He loves his benebones, his Jolly roller ball and playing tug of war. Axel let's you know when he needs to go outside. He also snores like a freight train. He is a slow waker, so he needs to have his stretches in before he is messed with. He needs to have a firm and consistent handler or he will take charge. He loves to snuggle but also his alone time on the floor next to his human. He is highly food motivated. Still needs work with muzzle training and his aversion to vet visits. The zoomies are a sight to behold. Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet. Upon approval to adopt, you will be sent SSRR Decompression and Introduction requirements that we require ALL of our adopters to follow. You will be asked to confirm that you have read, understand, and agree to follow these requirements. Please complete the adoption application in full; incomplete applications WILL NOT BE PROCESSED. Our Lead Adoption Coordinator will contact you and confirm your application has been received (please use our Contact Us Form if you have not gotten a response within 7 days) . After you have received confirmation from our Lead Adoption Coordinator, your application will then be forwarded to communicate with one of our Adoption Coordinators. The Adoption Coordinator is your point of contact during the adoption process. Once the Adoption Coordinator has finished processing your application, a volunteer will be selected to contact you to schedule a home visit. Home visits allow us to see where the dog will live, discuss any questions you have and review our adoption contract. Once the application process is completed, the adoption package goes to the board of directors for a 24 hour review. If you're interested in adopting this Rottweiler, please fill out an Adoption Application today! November 9, 2026, 10:56 pm
