Story
Hello there, I’m Hot Dog! But you can call me Hot Digity if you’re feeling extra friendly. I’m a senior fella, 13 pounds, 15 years old, and I’m looking for a quiet, loving home where I can relax, snuggle, and be the good boy I am.I’ve had a bit of a rough start, coming from a hoarding situation, but I’m healthy and happy now, thanks to my wonderful foster mom. I’ve had a couple of surgeries recently—cherry eye surgery, a dental cleaning, and some extractions, but don’t worry, I’m feeling good! I eat soft food and small kibble just fine, and I’m pretty easy-going about it all.I may be an older guy, but I still enjoy meeting new people (humans, that is—I’m not too sure about other dogs, especially if they don’t understand my cute little grunt-growl when I’m getting all snuggly). My foster mom’s dogs don’t really get me, but I’m cool with other dogs as long as they’re respectful of my personal space. I like to take it easy, resting and enjoying my snuggles, but I do bark when someone unfamiliar comes by. That’s just my way of saying, “Hey, who’s there?”I’m crate trained and a good listener, very attentive to my foster mom’s requests. I’m still working on my potty training, but I’m making great progress. I walk well on a leash now, and I love to meet new humans. My foster mom says I’m a good dog and that she wishes we had more one-on-one time, but I’m happy with whatever I get, as long as I get my snuggles!I’m heartworm positive, and doing the slow kill method so it’s easier on me. I just want to live out my golden years in a clean, loving environment where I can feel safe and cherished.So, if you’re looking for a quiet companion who just wants to be your best friend, I might be the one for you. I’m ready for my second chance. Could you be my person?*My adoption fee is partially sponsored to help me find a loving forever home!*IMPORTANT: Please read all below, especially if you live outside of Texas, which is where our rescue is located.Apply to adopt on our website: https://www.charmingpetrescue.org/adoptAll of our animals are spayed/neutered, microchipped, and up to date on shots.ALL of our animals are located in Boerne, TX, but transport after adoption is available to other states for a $300 fee for dogs or an additional fee varying by location for cats.

Story
Nala is a special little lady looking for her next home. Don’t let her age fool you, this girl has spunk. Whether she’s saying hello to other pets (gets along with cats and dogs) or going on a walk she is on the move. She loves to trot around with her little ears flapping and her tail wagging like she’s on a mission to explore, with potty breaks of course. After her time outside, she likes to rest with a nibble session on her soft toy in her bed. She is working on potty training and has made big strides and does great on a leash. This little lady is sure to win you over any time she trots excitedly to say hello and gives thank you kisses after getting a yummy meal.

Story
We’d like to introduce a wonderful, gorgeous, starry-eyed superstar! This adorable pup, Swiftie, can sing, dance, and entertain a crowd all while taking care of her four children. Swiftie’s tour bus (Lover, Evermore, Red, and Fearless) arrived to SNIPSA several weeks ago while they were still nursing. Now, they are old enough to find new homes and will sell out in no time, following in their mama’s footsteps. Miss Swiftie is our headliner at SNIPSA, and let us tell you why! This girl is versatile and will take center stage at any home. Apart from her compact size and good looks, she is smart, outgoing, and snack-motivated. Not to mention, her big ears are the ideal accessory for listening to all her favorite tunes! Swiftie is a doting mother and a loyal friend–She can truly do it all! Apply to meet Swiftie and fill your world with the sweetest music!
