Story

Meet Kodi — proof that age is just a number. At 13 years old and just 7.5 pounds, Kodi is the kind of loyal, low-maintenance companion dreams are made of. He’s house-trained (even in the rain!), sleeps quietly through the night in his crate, and quickly mastered the doggie door like the smart little guy he is. Kodi loves nothing more than being near you—happily curled up at your side or trotting along on a walk, just glad to be included. He is gentle, calm, and full of life, with so much love left to give. He eats only canned or soft food due to his lack of teeth and his age. Kodi didn’t deserve to be surrendered to a shelter by his owner but now he’s ready to be someone’s whole world. Maybe yours? We are a RESCUE GROUP, not a shelter, and all of our animals are in foster homes. To start the adoption process, email us at adoptions@earstexas.org requesting an application. Submitting an application does not commit you in any way, but helps us make the best match between people and our available dogs. Your current or past dogs must be inside dogs who have been spayed/neutered and are on heartworm prevention. All of the dogs in our program are inside dogs and are completely vetted including all vaccinations, spayed/neutered, free of internal parasites, microchipped, heartworm negative and on prevention before adoption. Our adoption process includes an application, check of vet records or personal references, interview, neutral site meet & greet with the dog and your family, and a home visit.

Story

Meet Shawn – A Gentle Soul Learning to Trust Shawn is a 6-year-old Maltese/Poodle mix with a tender heart and a whole new world waiting to be discovered! Shawn is a sweet little fellow who is learning that life can be full of good things, like warm hugs, tasty treats, a soft place to rest, and people who genuinely care about him. He's a quieter more cautious little guy and while he may take a little longer to warm up, his foster mom is already seeing the affectionate dog hiding beneath that shy exterior. As he's become more comfortable in his new surroundings, his sweet personality has begun to shine through. He now happily accepts hugs and affection from someone he trusts! Shawn is making wonderful little strides every day. He's developing good eating habits, enjoying treats, and making encouraging progress with potty training. He's even learned to use the doggy door all by himself! He's also discovered how much fun it can be to run around the backyard! Toys are still unfamiliar to him, and leash training hasn't begun yet, but every new experience is helping him build confidence and discover the joys of being a dog. Shawn isn't crate trained, and his future family should be prepared to continue working on potty training and helping him learn the routines of a loving home. He's also quite the little backyard watchdog when squirrels make an appearance! Because Shawn is sensitive to quick movements and unfamiliar situations, we believe he would do best in a quieter, patient household, ideally with adults or older, gentle children who understand how to give a dog time and space to feel comfortable. His compatibility with cats is unknown. Shawn may not be the dog who rushes into your arms the moment you meet him, but give him time, kindness, and a little patience, and you just might discover a very special friendship.For someone who finds joy in helping a shy dog build confidence and learn to trust, Shawn could be an incredibly rewarding companion. Could you be the person who helps Shawn's next chapter become his very best one? ##2859967##

Story

Meet Gumbo – A Little Love Bug with a Big Heart! Gumbo is a 6-year-old Maltese/Poodle mix who is discovering just how wonderful life can be when you're surrounded by love! Gumbo is a sweet, affectionate little guy who absolutely adores his people. If there's an opportunity to be held, cuddled, or showered with attention, Gumbo is first in line! He's the more outgoing of two brothers and has quickly formed a special bond with his foster mom. He's a little love bug who wants nothing more than to be close to someone who loves him. But with good food, gentle care, and plenty of affection, Gumbo is beginning to blossom! He's making encouraging progress with potty training and has already learned how to use the doggy door! Gumbo is discovering the joy of spending time outside, and one of his foster mom's favorite things is watching him run around the backyard doing happy little zoomies! Toys are still a mystery to him, but he's learning to enjoy treats, explore his surroundings, and soak up all the attention he can get. Gumbo isn't crate trained yet, and leash training will be another new adventure. He can also be quite vocal, whether he's alerting everyone to squirrels in the yard or letting his foster mom know he'd like some attention. Because he's become so attached to her, he sometimes whines when she leaves, although he does settle down after a while. His future family will need to be patient as he learns to feel secure and comfortable spending time on his own. Gumbo may be a good fit for a family with gentle, respectful children, although his interactions with children and cats haven't yet been evaluated. A home where someone has plenty of time for affection, consistency, and positive reinforcement would be wonderful for him. Gumbo doesn't need a perfect home. He needs a loving one where he can continue learning, growing, and discovering all the wonderful things he's been missing. In return, you'll have a devoted little companion with a whole lot of love to give! Could Gumbo be your new favorite cuddle buddy? ##2859968##

BROGGY

Maltese Poodle (Toy or Tea Cup)

Male, 1 yr

PLANO, TX

Size

(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less

Details

Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Broggy’s Profile Broggy is an fun-loving, energetic, and goofy one-year-old pup whos equally loving and sweet! He came in with his brother Zeynku and they can go together or can go to different forever homes! He gets along with other dogs but he has tendencies to resource guard food, so he will need his new family to be aware when they feed him and give him treats. Broggy is a fun machine! He loves to play all day long and be close and snuggly to his humans. He has a very funny bark that sounds like he’s trying to talk! At night, he’ll want to sleep in the same room as his family, and he loves to go into the closet and take things that smell like his humans!!! He needs a little work on his potty manners, but he’s very people pleasing so that should be very easy! Please apply at tzuzoorescue.com if you are interested in adopting from Tzu Zoo Rescue. More information available by contacting tzrinquiries@tzuzoorescue.com. [NOTE: We are a rescue NOT a shelter, meaning WE DO NOT HAVE A FACILITY THAT OPENS TO THE PUBLIC. Typically, an application and home visit (both of which are required for adoption) MUST be completed, BEFORE a potential adopter will be introduced to one of our pets, in order to first determine that our basic adoption requirements are met, prior to introductions being made. We also utilize personal reference and vet checks (to ensure that any pets already in the potential adoptive home are current on vaccines, heart worm prevention and sterilized) in our adoption process, all of which is intended to ensure that the best match, between pet and people, is made. The adoption fee is based on on the dog's age.

ZEYNKU

Maltese

Male, 1 yr

PLANO, TX

Story

Zeynkus Profile Zeynku is a small, one-year-old Maltese who is just the cutest little snowball! He had lots of energy and loves to play with other dogs (especially big dogs)! He came with Broggy and they can go together or be separated! Like his brother, Zeynku can resource guard food and treats so his new family needs to be aware as he gets acclimated in his new forever home. Zeynku would do well with another young playmate if he doesn’t go to a home with his brother, and the bigger the better! When it’s time to relax, Zeynku is all snuggles, and that’s definitely his happy place! He will want to sleep in the room or bed with his humans, and he’ll need a little work on his potty manners. He’s as sweet as soft as he looks and will make the perfect new family member for the holidays!!

Story

Jasmine was one of 36 dogs from a hoarding rescue where they were kept in deplorable conditions. She is shy but allows touch and will just need patience and love. She would probably be best suited with another small dog as that's all she knows. She is a very small girl - 10 lbs or under. She is such a cute girl and we hate what they had to endure. Her best life is ahead of her. We know with her timid nature that she would need a home with older children if you have kids. ##2885438##
