Story

Please note that this dog is currently located in TX and will be transported once adopted. Our application can be found at haydudeequine.org. 🐾 Meet Vaquero! 🤠 **Rat Terrier Mix • Born May 15, 2026 • 7 lbs of pure puppy perfection** ### Here's what the humans have to say about me: Please note that we are a foster-based rescue in TX. All of our dogs reside in foster homes in TX. We transport them to new states once adopted. **ALL ADOPTERS MUST BE 21+.** Our adoption application can be found at **haydudeequine.org**. Now that we've gotten the boring human stuff out of the way… **HI! I’M VAQUERO!** 🐶 I may weigh only 7 pounds, but I have apparently decided that I need to fill every available inch of your heart, your lap, and possibly your home. I am a **Rat Terrier mix puppy**, which means I come with an impressive combination of adorable, playful, curious, and just the right amount of *“What’s that?! I MUST INVESTIGATE!”* 😂 I love wrestling with my brothers, chasing toys, exploring everything I can possibly find, and generally making sure nobody in the house gets too comfortable. I believe puppies should be busy. There are toys to chase! Things to sniff! Brothers to tackle! But after all that important puppy business, I am very happy to clock out and report for **snuggle duty**. ❤️ Give me a warm lap and a cozy spot, and I will happily curl up in your arms for a nap. I am basically a tiny adventure buddy who comes with a built-in cuddle setting. I'm also doing **really well with my potty training** and am eager to keep learning. I'm a smart little guy, and with a family willing to keep teaching me, I'm going to make an excellent companion. I get along wonderfully with **dogs of all sizes** and do well with **cats**, too. I love people, I love adventures, I love playtime, and I REALLY love being loved. So whether you're looking for a hiking buddy, a playmate, a couch potato, a professional snuggler, or someone who will make you laugh approximately 47 times a day… **Vaquero has submitted his application for the position.** 🐾 I'm small right now, but I've got a **BIG personality and an even bigger heart**. All I need now is a forever family to grow up with. **Come meet me. I have a feeling we're going to be best friends.** ❤️

Pound Cake! 🐾 Pound Cake is a lovable 7-year-old Chihuahua weighing just 11 pounds and looking for his forever family! This sweet boy is the perfect combination of cuddle buddy and walking companion. He loves being held, enjoys leisurely walks, and has excellent leash manners. He gets along beautifully with other dogs and has been very respectful of his tiny Chiweenie foster sister. Pound Cake is well-behaved, easygoing, and happiest when he's close to his people. He'll greet you like you've been gone for years, even if it's only been a few minutes!

Empress D11964

Rat Terrier Jack Russell Terrier

Female, 8 yrs

Size

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

Details

Good with kids, Good with dogs, Good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Would you like your very own Wishbone or RCA Dog? With Empress, you get both! This adorable little Frankenstein dog is the perfect mix of Rat Terrier and Jack Russell, complete with a dainty Rat Terrier head, a wonderfully chonky Russell body, and the most magnificent butterball ham hocks. When she curls up for a nap, she basically turns into a potato. And honestly, she's perfect just the way she is. Despite her royal name, Empress is no diva. She's a soulful, sensitive sweetheart who is happiest curled up beside her people, soaking up affection and enjoying the comforts of home. She's independent enough to relax on her own, but if you're nearby, she'd much rather be right next to you. Empress enjoys her daily walks and can zip along when she's out exploring. Every now and then she breaks into the cutest little zoomies, reminding everyone that there's still some terrier spice under that couch-potato exterior. But most of the time, she's perfectly content with cuddles, naps, and being part of the family. This quiet, gentle girl loves people and has wonderfully easygoing manners. She's crate trained and has had zero accidents in her foster home, even during a full workday. She knows her basic commands and happily goes into her crate when asked. Empress has also shown that she's quite the gracious roommate. She's peacefully coexisted with gentle dogs, cats, and children, although slow introductions and thoughtful supervision are important. She'd do best with older or respectful children who understand that even an empress occasionally needs uninterrupted nap time. What Empress really wants is pretty simple: a calm, quiet home, a comfortable couch, daily walks, and a person who thinks having a little potato-shaped shadow nearby sounds like a wonderful way to spend the day. If you're looking for a sweet, sensitive, wonderfully quirky companion who is equal parts loyal best friend and professional couch potato, Empress is ready to take her rightful place in your heart—and possibly on your couch. ---- This pet is currently undergoing treatment for heartworm disease. Activity must be restricted for several weeks during recovery. RSR will cover the full cost of treatment. RSR will provide heartworm preventatives until the retest is due. The adopter will be responsible for scheduling the retest and obtaining any follow-up prescriptions through their veterinarian.

Meaghan D12131

Rat Terrier Dachshund

Female, 2 yrs 4 mos

Size

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

Details

Good with dogs, Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Meaghan would like everyone to know that she loves dogs. All dogs. Big dogs. Small dogs. New dogs. Dogs she met five minutes ago. If there is a dog nearby, Meaghan would probably like to be friends. People, however, are a much more complicated subject. Meaghan is a shy little girl who wants attention but is still learning that humans can be trusted. She may hang back at first, watch from a safe distance, and carefully evaluate your intentions before deciding whether you belong in her circle. The funny thing is that while Meaghan can be cautious with people, her feelings become much easier to read when she is happy. She has an adorable little side to side happy dance that appears when she gets excited. It is impossible not to smile when you see it. Meaghan would thrive in a home with another friendly dog. Confident canine friends help her feel safe, show her the ropes, and remind her that life is meant to be enjoyed. She is truly a dog’s dog and lights up around other pups. What Meaghan needs most is a patient family willing to let her move at her own pace. No pressure. No expectations. Just kindness, consistency, and the time she needs to realize that she is finally safe. As her confidence grows, so does the sweet, affectionate little dog hiding underneath her worries. If you are looking for a gentle companion and have a friendly dog who would love a new best friend, Meaghan may be the perfect addition to your family. Meaghan is from Texas.

Story

Lola is my name. I love all and want to be friends with everyone. I am mischievous and will get into trouble just for the attention. I am still very young and eager to explore new things. I want a loving family who will take me on adventures, then love on me while winding down. I don't like it when you focus on other dogs and sometimes I push them out of the way so I can be the center of attention! I have the sweetest face and my "love to be with you" attitude is the best kind to have! I am a medium sized girl and that makes me super PORTABLE! Take me with you to the beach, the mountains, the BATHROOM... I don't care where we go, as long as you take me with you!! I'm a energetic and driven girl with a strong prey drive, particularly chickens, birds, small animals and cats. I'll need a home without these types of pets to ensure everyone's safety.
