Story
Little Debbie is a five-year-old Toy Rat Terrier/Toy Fox Terrier mix with a golden and white coat, adorable bob tail, and a gentle, affectionate nature. Weighing around 15 pounds, she forms deep bonds with her people and loves being close, often following along as a loyal companion throughout the day. She is ready to settle in after a daily 30 to 45 minute walk, spending lots of time snuggling, playing with her favorite “babies,” working on enrichment puzzles, or watching the world from a favorite window. She knows sit, shake, and “Give me a Kiss” and responds well to positive reinforcement. She’s spayed, up to date on vaccines/heartworm prevention, had a recent healthy veterinary check and is managing a locating patella while working toward a healthier weight. A fenced yard or attentive leash is a must and will support her success. Continued guidance with leash manners, excitement around new experiences will help her to thrive! Little Debbie is happiest just being with her family

Meeko is very sweet and lovable. Unfortunately, work has changed to a lot of traveling where I cannot take care of him like he needs - he has grown up with other small dogs and around kids. Please find it in your heart to give him a good home. He is a senior but still very energetic and loves being petted.

Story
Hey there, it's me, Mr. Franklin! That's right, I'm a male dog of distinction and charm, and I'm here to add some serious fun to your life. My foster thinks I am a Jack-Chi or Chi-pug, about 1 year old. I'm a curious and playful boy who loves nothing more than a good time and, let me tell you, I've got the wiggles to prove it! Now, let's get down to business. I am an attention-seeker and an expert cuddler, always up for giving and receiving infinite kisses. My idea of a perfect day involves playtime with my toys, showing off my funny antics, and, of course, spending quality time with my favorite people. Oh, and did I mention I'm food-motivated? Treat me to some Kong peanut butter or carrots, and we'll be best friends forever. I'm a quick learner and a smart cookie, too. Potty-trained? Check. Dog door? No problem. Crate at night? I've got this. I'm a well-behaved boy who just wants to bring some laughter and love into your home. So, if you're looking for a furry friend to light up your life, I'm your man. Come meet me in Houston and let's start our adventure together! Available in the Houston area. Can video meet and greet also.

Story
Allow me to introduce you to the magnificent Miss Eleanor, or Ellie as her close friends call her. My foster thinks I am a Jack-Chi or Chi-puggle, about 1 year old. This little lady is an absolute delight, a perfect mix of sass and sweetness, with a dash of shyness that only adds to her charm. But don't be fooled by her initial reserve; once Ellie warms up to you, she's a roll-over-for-belly-rubs, snuggly lap dog who will charm you with her playful curiosity and affectionate nature. Miss Eleanor is a true lady, dignified yet friendly, and always up for a good time. She knows how to sit and stay, and her foster family has taught her to use a dog door like a pro. Ellie loves her squeaky toys and is a big fan of carrots and peanut butter-filled Kongs. But her absolute favorite thing? Why, that would be kisses, of course! This gentle girl adores giving and receiving love and is always up for a good snuggle. Eleanor is close to her brother, Franklin, and they make a dynamic duo. She's a young soul who sleeps in her crate at night and is always ready for adventures during the day. Miss Eleanor is currently being fostered in the Houston area and is available for meet and greets. So, if you're looking for a furry friend who is both sassy and sweet, Miss Eleanor is the paw-fect choice!

Story
**Courtesy Post**Larry is not a Russell Rescue dog. Russell Rescue is only assisting with placement. All inquiries should be directed to Larry’s owner at tpontiff19@gmail.com ** Say hello to Larry. He’s about a year old and is in great physical condition. He’s neutered and vaccinated. Larry needs another home. He’s not real fond of other dogs so being an “only child” will be right up his alley! He will be able to have all the love and attention. Larry is still so young that he is going to need a lot of attention and training. He needs a patient owner and someone who is willing to be kind and loving with him. His new owner needs a securely fenced yard. No electronic fencing, and no wrought iron unless it is screened. If you are interested in Larry, you will need to go to RussellRescue.com and fill out the online adoption application. Larry is not a Russell Rescue dog. Russell Rescue is only assisting with placement. All inquiries should be directed to Larry’s owner at tpontiff19@gmail.com His owner is asking a small rehoming fee. Larry lives in Austin, Texas and his new owner will need to drive there to get him.
