Story
Please contact Jamesa (roxysrescue@yahoo.com), 713-882-2610 for more information about this pet.You would be winning a prize to get this super duper sweet little girl.  Well she is not so little, kind of like 65 pounds and she will get about 10 bigger as she develops.  Meet BUBBLES who will cuddle and give kisses, she is loyal and loving, kind and gentle.  As part of her makeup you would be getting a non-reactive, friendly and social girl.    This sweetheart was abandoned at a park in San Antonio, TX.  So loyal that she was just sitting in the sand pit waiting for her humans to come back and get her.  After 3 days she decided she would follow her foster mom home with their dog.     Did I tell you she is affectionate and a love bug who gets along with other dogs and cats and she thinks she is a lap dog so be prepared to get all the love your have been looking for from BUBBLES, she gives the best hugs.     On the 2nd day at her foster home she allowed the 13 year old to bath and trim her nails without any fuss. Of course she runs and play like Tinkerbell with the foster's pit mix who can be kind of bossy at times but BUBBLES has no reaction towards it she just goes to play with her toys until our dog is ready to play again.   She is very comfortable sitting quietly playing with her toys and so not in the way of anything.  BUBBLES totally respects the boundaries of the cat and she is friendly with her.   BUBBLE is estimated to be approximately 1 1/2 years old and completely healthy.  She will guard your property in a curious kind of way and occasionally bark at perceived threats but isn't a big runner or barker.    BUBBLES has been in foster care for 6 weeks and her foster family simply love her but know she deserves to have a home of her own.  It would be great if she had a pet playmate but she would be just as happy as an only dog.  She would be your constant and best companion.   BUBBLES can be trusted unsupervised in the yard and has not tried to dig or escape.   If you are interested in adopting BUBBLES, please submit an application on the website below or give us a call.      www.roxysk9rescue.org          ADOPTION FEE & APPLICATION REQUIRED   Roxxy's K-9 Rescue does not have a shelter, all of our dogs are raised in foster homes.  Each dog comes  spay/neutered (fixed), rabies shots appropriate for their age, and dewormed twice.  The dogs are up to date on vaccinations according to their age at the time of adoption.  They are microchipped, heartworm tested and on monthly flea/tick and heartworm preventative.  ALL OF THIS IS INCLUDED IN THE ADOPTION FEE. We transport across the United States. Medical records will come with each dog at the time of adoption. Our organization is run by volunteers/foster parents, please be patient to give us time to respond to your emails and/or phone calls.  We will reply to you.  Thank you.         October 20, 2025, 8:13 am

Story
Please contact Jamesa (roxysrescue@yahoo.com), 713-882-2610 for more information about this pet.Meet LUCAS, a wonderfully happy guy who loves everyone and plays with everyone in his foster home.  His temperament is the best, no aggression or guarding issues with him.  He actually shares his crate with a younger and smaller puppy who has attached himself to LUCAS. LUCAS is 36 pounds and will probably be a large-medium dog, at least 60 pounds.  When he was younger he looked much more like a Rottweiler but as he has grown he is showing signs of having Labrador Retriever in him but the Rottweiler is prominent.  LUCAS is currently 4 1/2 months old.  He is completely crate and potty trained.  Once he door opens to his crate he heads straight to the backdoor to go potty and he stays out there to play with everyone.  LUCAS is an equal opportunity playmate.  He loves toys and playing tug-of-war. Actually this is a sweet guy who would make any family happy to have him as their pet.  If you are interested in adopting LUCAS please submit an application on the website below.  Thank you. www.roxysk9rescue.org     ADOPTION FEE & APPLICATION REQUIRED   Roxxy's K-9 Rescue does not have a shelter, all of our dogs are raised in foster homes.  Each dog comes  spay/neutered (fixed), rabies shots appropriate for their age, and dewormed twice.  The dogs are up to date on vaccinations according to their age at the time of adoption.  They are microchipped, heartworm tested and on monthly flea/tick and heartworm preventative.  ALL OF THIS IS INCLUDED IN THE ADOPTION FEE.

Story
Hello, I'm Rumble! I'm a big lovable Rottie with a heart of gold for people!! According to my foster mom, I've got the heart of a big, playful puppy, and sometimes I forget that I'm a larger dog when I'm having a blast. So, if you have smaller dogs at home, we might just need a little adjustment period to get along famously. But here's the thing—when it comes to cats, I'm not the most purr-fect playmate, so if you've got a furry feline in the house, I might not be the ideal match.Now, if you believe you can provide me with a loving and caring home, please don't hesitate to apply today. And yes, I may be soaking up the Texas sunshine right now, but the good news is that I'm ready to hit the road and make my way to your heart and home. All it takes is a $230 transport fee, and I'll be on my way to becoming your loyal companion.Let's make it happen! Apply today, and let's embark on a journey of love and companionship together. Thank you for considering me for adoption! Online Application: https://service.sheltermanager.com/asmservice?account=ch2817&method=online_form_html&formid=41*Disclaimer: This pet is located in Texas.
