Story
Meet Knox, the playful little guy who proudly serves as Vice President of Puppy Shenanigans. While his sister Dot may run the gang, Knox is right behind her making sure the fun never stops. He’s a happy, affectionate pup who loves attention and is not afraid to tell you exactly what’s on his mind. Got a thought? Knox has one too. Probably several. Knox’s most impressive talent is his ongoing attempt to escape Mount Puppy Pen, a daring climbing challenge he approaches with the determination of a tiny Alcatraz escape artist. Security improvements are currently under review. He’s playful, social, and enjoys wrestling with his siblings and the other dogs in the house. Knox also lives with cats and would probably love to be friends… if they’d stop giving him the cold shoulder. If you're looking for a puppy who is fun, expressive, affectionate, and slightly convinced he's part mountain goat, Knox might be your guy. Local adoption fee is $250(in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $550 (includes transport to your area)

Story
Meet Raptor, the puppy who likes to pretend he’s the cool, calm, collected member of the group… until you get him one-on-one. Around the other puppies, Raptor acts like the laid-back observer. But the moment he has you to himself? Surprise! The chill guy disappears and the attention-loving goofball comes out. If you stop petting him, he will absolutely let you know about it. Raptor believes attention should be continuous and uninterrupted. His favorite hobby is shoe sabotage. Raptor specializes in sneaking up while you're standing there minding your business and carefully untying your shoelaces. It’s a very important job and he takes it seriously. Raptor gets along well with his siblings and lives with four adult dogs and four cats. The dogs are cool with him, and he would very much like to be friends with the cats… but the cats have not yet approved his application. If you're looking for a puppy who is equal parts chill, silly, affectionate, and mildly mischievous, Raptor is ready to keep you entertained. Local adoption fee is $250(in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $550 (includes transport to your area)

Story
Meet Wilbur, the puppy equivalent of the middle child who somehow keeps the whole household running smoothly. While his siblings are busy competing for titles like Boss of the Litter, Prison Break Specialist, and Professional Shoelace Saboteur, Wilbur has taken on the role of peacekeeper and all-around good boy. He’s playful without being wild, confident without being bossy, and chill without being boring. Basically, Wilbur has mastered the art of going with the flow no matter what the rest of the puppy crew is up to. Wilbur enjoys playing with his siblings, hanging out with the other dogs in the house, and being part of the action without needing to be the center of attention. He currently lives with four adult dogs and four cats, so he’s already getting lots of practice sharing space with a full house. If you’re looking for a puppy who is friendly, adaptable, and happy to join whatever adventure the day brings, Wilbur might just be your perfect match. Local adoption fee is $250(in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $550 (includes transport to your area)

Olive is an adorable, loving, and amusing little lap dog that needs more attention than we can provide in our already busy and full house. She only barks when she needs to be let out to potty. She is a great dog and gets along with my cats and other dogs perfectly.

Hi. Im Lydia from the Regrettes and I am ready to perform! I may be a tiny 3-month-old terrier mixbut emotionally? Im headlining your living room tour. I wake up ready to feel things. Toys? Intense. Breakfast? Life-changing. You leaving the room for 12 seconds? A dramatic monologue. I am bold, expressive, curious, and just slightly convinced the world revolves around me (it should, right?). But lets be clear- Im still a baby. A wiggly, learning-as-I-go, sometimes-trip-over-my-own-paws baby. I didn't say I was perfect...but I am awesome. Current tour stats: Potty training: in progress (Im trying, okay?) Crate training: learning its my dressing room, not exile Leash walking: enthusiastic zigzag performance art Social skills: playful, confident, and ready to make friends I love people. I love other dogs. I love movement and engagement and anything that involves me being included. Im smart- the kind of smart that will absolutely outwit you if you dont give me structure. Training wont just help meit will make me thrive. My ideal home? Someone who appreciates a big personality in a small package (I'm only supposed to be medium sized). Someone who laughs at the chaos, commits to guidance, and understands that strong girls become amazing dogs when given consistency and love. Underneath the sparkle and sass, Im deeply loyal. Ill curl into your lap after a long day like, Okay fine. You can be my favorite person. You already ARE my favorite person I think... Im not background noise. Im the anthem. Ready to start this tour together? Call me! Please visit our website www.motleyzoorescue.org to learn more about this amazing pet and to see other available dogs and cats.

Hi. Im Genessa of the Regrettes. Have you heard of our band? I'm lead vocals! Im a 3-month-old terrier mix with bright eyes and just enough attitude to start a garage band in your living room. If youve ever listened to us, you already get the vibe: big presences, zero interest in being ignored! I wake up ready to take on the world. Breakfast? Punk rock. Toys? Punk rock. Your shoelaces? Also punk rock. I am bold, curious, and convinced everything is an opportunity. Of course it is, life is fun!! But heres the twist- under the spunky frontwoman energy, Im still a baby. A snuggly, learning-the-ropes, sometimes-overstimulated little nugget who needs: consistency structure patient humans naps (so many naps) At three months old, Im still working on the basics. Potty training? In progress. Crate training? Learning. Leash skills? Lets call it interpretive dance for now ;) Im social and playful with other dogs, especially ones who appreciate a little sass. I love people and will happily bounce toward new friends like Ive been booked to headline their house. My ideal home? Someone who laughs at the chaos, commits to training, and understands that confident girls still need guidance. Im smart- terrier smart- which means if you teach me, I will absolutely learn. If you dontI will absolutely invent my own rules! Im not here to be background music. Im here to be your tiny riot, your couch-cuddling rebel, your loyal little frontwoman. Ready to start a band together? Hit me up! Please visit our website www.motleyzoorescue.org to learn more about this amazing pet and to see other available dogs and cats.

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. **Meet Beau: Your Future Furry Companion**   **Five-year-old Beau** Introducing Beau, a stunning Jack Russell-Papillon mix affectionately known as a Papi-Jack. At just 5 years old, Beau is a devoted and affectionate companion who, despite his initial shyness, can quickly transform into your most delightful friend. His joy when he sees his favorite human is heartwarming, as he eagerly seeks love and affection. If you're looking for a furry friend to fill your heart and home, Beau is ready to give his all to someone who will cherish him forever. Behold, gorgeous, sweet, and wonderful Beau. Beau originally came from a hoarding situation, was he was locked up for most of the day in a large crate with other dogs. He runs free at the rescue, as a crate's confinement is a stressful situation for him. Beau needs and loves having a yard to soak up the sun and take potty breaks. While he enjoys the company of one to two dog friends for socialization and will do well to have buddies, he can also thrive as the only dog, soaking up all the attention. An adult-only home is essential for Beau, as he can be frightened by children or grandchildren, which may lead to anxiety and biting. His shyness means he prefers a calm, quiet atmosphere where sudden movements and loud noises don’t startle him. Are you searching for a sweet, loving companion who wants to be by your side every moment? Beau is the playful friend you've dreamed of, eager to bring joy into your life. He boasts a medium to long, soft, silky coat that requires regular grooming to keep him looking his best. Known for his cleanliness, Beau enjoys being brushed, showered with attention, and receiving those all-important hugs. He's housebroken, current on vaccines, and microchipped. Beau is not just a pet; he's a loyal companion who forms deep bonds with his special person. As a natural watchdog, he’ll let you know when guests arrive, but he will appreciate a quiet spot to retreat to when unfamiliar faces come over. With just 1-2 close companions, Beau becomes the ultimate lap dog, showering you with kisses and hugs once he feels secure in your presence. He gets along wonderfully with small dogs and enjoys playing with older puppies. Due to his Jack Russell heritage, Beau has a strong prey drive and needs a home without other small animals. So, no cats, mice, reptiles, or similar pets can join the household. **Ready to Make Beau Part of Your Family?** If you’re intrigued by the prospect of welcoming Beau into your life, please use the link below to apply for adoption. Our dedicated team will review your application, address any questions you might have, and ensure you’re a great match for this lovable pup. To welcome Beau into your heart and home, there is a $450.00 adoption fee. Every dollar goes towards covering medical care and helping us rescue more dogs in need. Don’t wait—complete the online application via the link below and provide as much information as possible. Let’s work together to find the perfect match for both you and Beau! https://rompinpawsrescue.com   Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.March 9, 2026, 9:34 pm

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. **KIWI** Kiwi is a seven-year-old purebred Jack Russell Terrier with a big personality. He loves chasing balls, going for car rides, walks, and running in the sun. Like many Jack Russells, he can get possessive over toys, so if he lives with or visits other dogs, it's best to put toys away. Kiwi has never had to share his things before, so he can be protective of them. He would do best as the only dog in the home, but with careful management of toys, he can live with other dogs without problems. Kiwi enjoys car rides and is always ready for an adventure. At home during the day, he keeps himself busy chewing on an elk antler or napping. In the mornings and evenings, he likes spending time with people. Kiwi came to us from an overcrowded shelter after his owner passed away and no family members could take him. He arrived with a limp, but after a week of eating a high-quality diet, taking joint supplements, using a muscle builder, and going on gentle, longer walks, he is moving much better. We ask that his adopters continue with this food and supplement routine to help him stay healthy and active. Kiwi should have his hip checked by a vet, but we are happy with his progress and believe his stiffness was mostly due to being kept in a small cat cage at the shelter. Kiwi is affectionate, curious, and adventurous, and he bonds quickly with people. Because of his strong prey drive, he needs a home without small animals, including cats. He would do well with older children who are experienced with dogs. **Adopting Kiwi** To adopt, please use the link below. One of our volunteers will review your application and follow up with you to ask questions, address any concerns, and determine whether you are a good match for this pup. If a match is made, the next step will be a meet-and-greet. Please use a computer to complete the application, as tablets and cell phones may disrupt the process. Kiwi has transitioned to a human-grade diet that avoids kibble and focuses on a healthy, canine-specific feeding regimen. We will educate his adopters on proper diet and nutrition.   The adoption fee for Kiwi is $495 and includes his vaccines, rabies, and a microchip. Kiwi is Neutered.       www.rompinpawsrescue.com   Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.March 9, 2026, 9:34 pm
