DOB 6-2-2026 Sweet Maggie May is so sweet she has a heart shape on her site. She loves attention, loves to play with toys and her little friends. She is such a good girl, loves everyone. Maggie's adoption fee is 750.00 she will come with all of her medical records and health certificate. Her transport fee is 165.00 The first step in the adoption process is to fill out an online adoption application. You can find a copy of that application here. We sometimes receive a lot of interest on an animal and can't always reply to each email in a timely manner. An application does not obligate you to adopt from us, but it does show that you are serious about the adoption process. Please remember we are all volunteers. After you submit your application please allow a few days for a volunteer to review your application. During this time your vet reference will be checked and a volunteer with determine if it is the best match for you and the animal. Applications are not approved on a first come, first serve basis. We match up the best home for the animal, so even if the pet has other applications, this does not mean he/she will be adopted to that home. Once your application has been approved a volunteer with contact you to set up a phone interview. This is the perfect time for you to ask any questions you have about the adoption process and the animal you are interested in.

Story
Meet Wilford Brimley!!! Unlike his namesake, he will not try to sell you "Diabeetus" testing supplies but he will try to convince you that he is all you need. He wants to meet everyone he sees. He gets along well with his foster siblings and all other dogs he has met. He would love another canine to play with in his forever home. He is indifferent about the resident foster cat but this cat is very dog savvy. He loves to cuddle and snuggle with his human but he is crate trained and does sleep in his crate overnight. Wilford loves his walks and traveling in the car but also be happy with a fenced in yard. He loves affection but not while he is eating. He does best with a slow feeder bowl. He does respect other dogs during their food consumption events. Wilford or Mr. Brimley, has been in foster for a few months, as we gave him time to decompress and become familiar with what is expected of a loved, balanced canine companion. His new family should expect to give him time to show what a good dog he can be. Wilford would thrive with Adult companionship as kids are too animated for him. An apartment is not ideal for him as he is still working on learning an appropriate inside voice. He needs structure and boundaries that need to be reinforced and reminded about daily. Wilford Brimley would love a window seat as he takes great pleasure in people watching. If you think you can assist in his quest for balance, please fill out an application. ##2633256##

Meet Bubbles, an adult female small terrier/chi mix who is about 6 yrs old and weighs 13 lbs. Bubbles arrived in CT on 8/22 and is settling in well with her foster. We are accepting applications for her now! Her foster said, "Bubbles is a very sweet girl! She is such a loving little girl, and I'm definitely going to enjoy all the cuddles while she is here!" Bubbles is medically up to date and spayed. Apply to meet this special pup today! Click HERE for Adoption Application: pawsrescueleague.org/adopt Adoption fees vary based on the dog and are not negotiable. As a small rescue that does not receive government funding or grants, we rely on adoption fees to stay afloat. Adoption fees help cover the following: vaccinations, wellness exams, heartworm/4DX testing, parasite prevention, spay/neuter (age-appropriate), microchipping, transport expenses, and other rescue-related overhead/administrative costs. Paws Rescue League, Inc is an all-inclusive rescue that does NOT only rescue puppies and young, healthy dogs.  We make a point to also rescue seniors, dogs with special needs, moms, and other “less desirable” dogs, knowing that we will likely incur higher veterinary expenses and that these dogs may take longer to get adopted.  As such, an individual adoption fee is not only reimbursing PRL for expenses directly related to that dog, but it is also helping us to continue our mission of taking in dogs that would otherwise be too much of a financial burden to save. We believe that ALL dogs deserve a second chance. Thank you for your support and understanding! ##2814685##

Story
APPLICATION LINK: https://shaynesrescue.com/adoption-application-pet-central-satx/ We must have an application to move forward. (Shayne's Rescue is an affiliate with PetCentralSATX). If there are problems with the website, please email me for help. The 4 ‘M’ Puppies came to us from a neighbor down the street. An elderly man had these 4 pups dropped on his property and he didn’t know what to do with them. He approached a neighbor that he knew to do rescue but she, too, was having her own problems with too many dogs and she approached me. They were already 3 ½ mos old. (We gave them a DOB of 2/15/26.) We took them in and started shots, neutering and TLC. I see 2 puppies with one father and 2 puppies with another father. I did a phone scan for breed-types and came out with varying suggestions so as we list each one, I will list the differences. MU SHU-Possibly a mixture of Jack Russell, Rat Terrier, and Beagle. She is currently 6 mos old and weighs 16#. I expect her to be 25# when grown. She is a happy puppy that loves to jump in the water and go up to her neck. She plays with all the toys and, of course, loves the other puppies. She loves to play with all the toys and loves the water tub. It is quite hot right now in Texas…so they all love the water. This dog is CURRENTLY IN TEXAS and available for pre-adoption. Adoptions include neuter/spay, vaccinations (DHPP, Bordetella, Rabies), microchip, health certificate, transport with our professional dog transporter, and 6 mos of heart worm prevention. You will receive the dog's folder with all the printouts proving the medical treatments received. If you have any questions or would like an e-mail from us as to how all of this works, text me (Terry); identify the dog's name and give me your email address... 210-394-6060. You can also go to our Facebook page... https://www.facebook.com/Pet-Central-SATX-866684826744181/ and LIKE us to help us out. After we review your application, we will contact you, and you will have the opportunity to find out more from their foster family or the rescue. If you experience any issues filling out the application you can contact us directly at shaynerescue@gmail.com. This is ONLY if you have problems applying. If you have not applied, you will not receive a response so please only email if you have any issues applying. Thank you for choosing to adopt a rescue pup/dog. We firmly believe there is NO breed other than "rescue" for all species. Thank you for being part of the village it takes to save these precious lives.
