Story
Tila is about 3 years old and is wonderful around women and cats, but can be a little hesitant around men. We're not sure how she would do living with dogs, but she does well with dogs outside the home, and she grew up with a cat and got along very well with her! She loves to cuddle and can be active (for a small dog) at times!

Story
Suki is a gentle and loving dog. She came from a Texas rescue in April 2025. We did not know, at the time, that she has a fear of men and has seperation anxiety. She does well with women. Suki would thrive very well in a household of mainly women. She is a little snuggle bug, once she gains your trust. We will make sure that Suki goes to the right home, therefore, we will be very choosey in who adopts or fosters her.

Story
Welcome 4-year-old Bowser to CCPAL Rescue. Bowser is a Rat Terrier mix. We think he is mixed with Dachshund. He appears to be house trained because he doesn’t like to go in his kennel even though there is a wee pad. He is smart. He is adorable and weighs about 15 pounds. He is good on a leash and knows the sit command. He is lower on the shedding scale. He loves car rides and if he is off leash and you need him to come, you can open the car door and he will jump in. The only thing he isn’t great at is nail trims. He doesn’t like them, so we let the vet techs do that at his appointments or his groomer. He would be a great walking companion. He has lived in a home with small children and did great. We would like all the children to be 8 or older. He is very affectionate and liked it when Colin held him today. He can run very fast and he comes when you call. He is good with other dogs, even when bigger than himself. He isn’t over vocal and will bond deeply to his human. Many people love the Rat Terrier breed because of their loving nature. He is currently in Texas at the CCPAL Rescue. He is getting his vaccines topped up and will be ready for his new forever home as soon as we find his placement. We think a moderately active family would be best. He is loving and cuddly but will need a yard to play in or a walk daily to get his exercise in. He is a Rat Terrier so he will have fun checking the yard for rodents. He can be adopted locally in Texas or we can work with one of the wonderful transporters to get him to Washington, Porltand, Minnesota, Vermont or all along the East Coast. His adoption fee is 400 and transport is $200. Rhode Island and Massachusetts are not states we adopt to because of the regulations imposed by these states Contact Marlene at 210-867-1769 or email to ccpalinquiries@gmail.com if you have questions.

Patches’ story begins in heartbreak—but it quickly turns into one filled with hope, joy, and endless love. As a tiny puppy, Patches was found dumped in a flooded ditch in Western Louisiana along with her littermates. They were starving, neglected, and covered in fleas, left in conditions no puppy should ever face.

Now just 10 months old and weighing around 30 pounds, Patches has blossomed into a happy, healthy hound mix with so much love to give. She is fully vaccinated, spayed, and heartworm negative—ready for a bright future. She’s housebroken, walks nicely on a leash, and gets along great with other dogs.

Patches is a smart girl who loves to learn and thrives on companionship. She’s incredibly friendly, affectionate, and full of that joyful puppy energy that makes every day a little brighter. Whether she’s trotting happily by your side on a walk or curling up for cuddles, Patches reminds you how powerful love and second chances can be. From a flooded ditch to a hopeful tomorrow, Patches has overcome so much in her short life. All she needs now is a forever family to call her own—one who will cherish her the way she has always deserved.

Prancer’s journey is one of quiet strength and incredible resilience. Found wandering the streets of Houston, Texas, this sweet Chihuahua mix had clearly been forgotten by the world.

He is wonderfully well-mannered and gets along effortlessly with everyone he meets—dogs, cats, and children alike. No matter the home or the family, Prancer is the kind of dog who naturally fits right in. Today, Prancer is healthy and thriving. He is neutered, fully vaccinated, heartworm negative, and current on flea, tick, and heartworm prevention. His current weight is 22 pounds, and that is as big as he will get—making him the perfect size for cuddles, companionship, and adventures alike. Whether he’s curled up beside you for a nap, gently playing with his furry friends, or proudly trotting along on his leash, Prancer’s loving spirit shines through. He is a survivor with a heart full of gratitude and devotion. If you’re ready to open your home to a dog who has overcome so much and still chooses love every day, Prancer is waiting to meet you—and to give you his whole heart.
