Story
Meet Brutus, He came to us with his best friend Maggie. These two do everything together and are very bonded. They had a family but sadly their owner passed away and so Brutus and Maggie found themselves looking for a place to call home. Brutus is a big sweet boy--he's 9 years old and weighs 100 pounds. He likes to be brushed and is treat motivated. We were informed that he is house trained but have not put that to the test. He does know ''sit'' and ''come'' but only if you have a treat to bribe him with. Due to his size he looks a bit intimidating at first but don't let that fool you, he is a big sweetheart! We can't wait to find him and Maggie a place they can call home again.IMPORTANT: Please read all below, especially if you live outside of Texas, which is where our rescue is located.Apply to adopt on our website: https://www.charmingpetrescue.org/adoptAll of our animals are spayed/neutered, microchipped, and up to date on shots.ALL of our animals are located in Boerne, TX, but transport after adoption is available to other states for a $300 fee for dogs or an additional fee varying by location for cats. If you are seeing our pets posted in your state, that's because you live near a transport stop, they are not currently at that location. Petfinder lists our pets as ''Out of Town'' pets at other locations, and Adopt-a-Pet lists our location as a Transport stop. Those are currently the only options they offer to make this clear, so we put this description we've put at the bottom to explain it.

Story
Meet Maggie, this gorgeous 9 year old, 80 pound girl came to us with another German Shepherd named Brutus who is her best friend. They both had a family but sadly their owner passed away and so Maggie and Brutus were brought to Charming Pet Rescue. We were informed they are house trained but have not put that to the test. Maggie is such a sweet girl, she loves being brushed and getting attention. When you offer her a treat she takes it from your hand so gently! Maggie knows ''sit'' and ''come'' but also just tends to follow whatever Brutus does. They really are the cutest pair! We can't wait to find them a family to call their own again.IMPORTANT: Please read all below, especially if you live outside of Texas, which is where our rescue is located.Apply to adopt on our website: https://www.charmingpetrescue.org/adoptAll of our animals are spayed/neutered, microchipped, and up to date on shots.ALL of our animals are located in Boerne, TX, but transport after adoption is available to other states for a $300 fee for dogs or an additional fee varying by location for cats.

Story
Jax is a young dog with lots of energy to play! He is house trained and does very well if you leave him out. He loves to go for walks and chase after a tennis ball (or any ball) as well as play with his toys. He is looking for his forever home that has plenty of space to let him run around. He will need to find a home with no pets or children in the home as they can be a bit too much for him and he would prefer to be the only baby in the house. It may take some time to let him get to know you but once he warms up to you, he will be your best friend! He loves to lay on the couch and will snuggle with you when he feels like it. Please give Jax a chance to join your family! If you are interested please email the shelter at adoptions@furryfriendsrefuge.org to find out how to meet this handsome pup and find out a bit more about him from his foster family!

Story
Isn't this girl just adorable? Jovi is a super sweet and active dog who is looking for a forever family who can understand her high energy and her quirks. She can get a little nervous around other dogs so a slow introduction with another dog at home would be best. Small dogs and cats, however, can look like toys so we she would do best in a home without small animals. Jovi is great with people and will promise to bring a smile to your face each day you see her as long as you give her the love that she craves.
