Story
Hi everyone, it’s me, Nana Banana! 🍌 I’m looking for a new home, and I have a feeling my perfect person is out there somewhere. 😔 Let me tell you about me. I’m a LOVE BUG. 🐞 I adore my person and will happily follow you around the house, curl up beside you, put my head in your lap, and somehow try to crawl directly into your skin. I’m affectionate, loyal, goofy, cuddly, and independent all at once. I’m also a pretty typical Rottweiler mix when it comes to my home. When someone comes to the door or onto the property, 👀 I’m going to let you know about it. I bark, I alert, 🚨 and I take my job as home security seriously. 😳 That doesn’t mean I’m aggressive or that I don’t like people. In fact, the rescue coordinator personally met me and had absolutely no issues with me. I was happy to meet her, and I’ve been wonderful with people outside of my home. I’m just much more protective when someone comes into my house! Some dogs greet every person who walks through the door like they’ve been waiting their whole life for them. That’s not really my style. I’m a Rottweiler mix 😂 I like to know what’s going on around my home, and I need someone who understands that and knows how to manage and redirect me when visitors arrive. My current family is having trouble managing that behavior, but that doesn’t make me a bad dog. I’m truly one of the best dogs, and I have SO much love to give. 🥹 I’m house trained, crate trained, know sit, stay and break, and I’m still working on my “leave it.” I ride great in the car 🚗 , love my bones 🦴 and tennis balls, 🎾 enjoy belly rubs, and I’m perfectly happy entertaining myself or taking a good nap.😴 I do fine with male dogs! But I have a pretty strong prey drive when it comes to things like squirrels, rabbits and deer so no cats. What I really want is someone who understands strong breeds! understands that alerting when people come to the house is something we can work on and manage, and most importantly, sees the giant sweetheart underneath it all. Because once you’re my person? You’re MY person. ❤️ I’ll follow you everywhere. I’ll cuddle with you. I’ll put my head in your lap. I’ll give you the famous Rottweiler side eye. I’ll probably sleep in some completely ridiculous position and make little piggy 🐽 noises while sniffing around. I’m Nana Banana. 🍌 I’m loyal. I’m loving. I’m goofy. I’m cuddly. And I’m looking for the person who understands that being a Rottweiler doesn’t mean I have to love every stranger who walks through my front door.🚪 It just means I take my job seriously. 🐾 https://www.realrottweilerrescue.com/dogs/nana-banana-q0yi

Meet Nikki! 🖤🤎 Nikki is a lovely Rottweiler. She is a big girl, but she has a calm, easygoing personality. She enjoys taking her time to explore her surroundings and is happy to say hello to other dogs, but she’s also very responsive when you call her. After just a few minutes, Nikki settles in and comes over to ask for some well-deserved pets. ❤️ If you’re looking for a calm, gentle companion who appreciates the simple pleasures in life, Nikki may be your girl! Come meet this sweet Rottie and see if Nikki is the companion you’ve been looking for. 🐾 The shelter is open Tuesday through Friday from 3:30 PM to 6:30 PM, and on Saturday and Sunday from 1:00 PM to 4:00 PM. A meet-and-greet is required for all shelter dogs if you already have a dog. Thank you for considering the adoption of a shelter animal in need!

I’m Lily Pad… but Lily is perfectly fine. 🪷 Although, if you ask me, I think Sweetest Girl in the Entire World has a nice ring to it. Just saying. 🧁 I’m about 4 years old, and I’m basically the perfect combination of sweet, silly, snuggly, well mannered, and just a tiny bit ridiculous. 😉 I might be a little shy when we first meet. I like to take my time, watch you for a minute, and make sure you’re one of the good ones. But once I decide I trust you? Oh, honey. 🍯 You’re my best friend! And I am going to LOVE you.❤️ I’ll follow you around the house. I’ll curl up beside you, I’ll give you kisses, I’ll put my head in your lap, I’ll ask for belly rubs, I’ll happily accept approximately one million hugs, 🤗 And if you happen to sit down on the couch, I will immediately begin calculating how I can get as close to you as physically possible. I am an absolute lovebug. ☺️ I adore my people and I have so much affection to give. I’m the kind of girl who will quietly snuggle beside you and make you wonder how you ever lived without me. And just when you think I’m the calmest, sweetest little lady… SURPRISE! 😲 I HAVE A BALL. 🎾 I love to chase my toys, 🧸 toss them around, and roll onto my back like a goofy 🙃 little puppy while I play. Sometimes I entertain myself, which is adorable. Sometimes I’ll bring the fun to you, because obviously games are better when my people participate. 💕 I’m also a wonderful family dog. 🏡❤️ I do beautifully with other dogs, and I’m wonderful with kids. I’m happy to have four legged friends around, but if you’re wondering what I really want at the end of the day… It’s you. My people are my favorite. I’ve even met cats, and I basically said, “Oh, you live here? Cool.” 😌🐱 And then there are my manners. ✨ House trained ✨ Quiet in the house ✨ Great on a leash ✨ Responds beautifully to leash pressure ✨ Past my crazy puppy stage ✨ Lower energy ✨ Happy to play ✨ Even happier to cuddle Basically, I have reached the age where I appreciate a nice walk, a little playtime, a comfy couch, and a good nap. 😴 I am not asking for much. Except maybe your entire heart. ❤️ And your couch. 🛋️ And your attention. And your snacks. 😋 But other than that, I’m very low maintenance. 😂❤️ There is, however, one thing I feel strongly about… 🥵 Texas is HOT. Like… disrespectfully hot. I spent way too much of my life living outside, and now that I’ve discovered air conditioning, I have decided I like the inside better ❄️ I’ll happily go outside for a walk or to take care of business, but if you leave me out there for too long, I will stand at the door and stare at you like: “Ma’am. Sir. Human. The AC is literally right there. Let’s make better choices.” 😒 I’m perfectly content to spend the day lounging nearby my people. But I also know how to relax when they leave. I’ll take a nap, wait patiently, and then be absolutely beside myself with happiness when they come home. 😄 Because that’s the thing about me… I just really, really love my people. 🥹🩷 I’m not the dog who needs a thousand adventures or a house full of excitement. I want a family, I want someone to scratch behind my ears and tell me I’m a good girl. I want kids to love me and other dogs to play with. I want someone who doesn’t mind that I will probably follow them from room to room because, frankly, wherever you are sounds like the best place to be. And most of all… I want to finally know what it feels like to be someone’s girl. 🥹 I spent the beginning of my life without the security and love every dog deserves. But I’m ready to leave that chapter behind. I’m ready for the soft beds. 🛌 The belly rubs. The afternoon naps. The family photos. 📸The car rides. 🚗 The toys scattered across the living room. 🧸🦴🎾 The kids who sneak me an extra treat. 😉 The humans who kiss my forehead just because they can. And the forever home where I never have to wonder again if I belong. Because I do. I just need someone to give me the chance to show them. 🌸 I’m Lily. I’m sweet. I’m silly. I’m cuddly. I’m wonderful. And I have an absolutely enormous heart waiting for someone to call me theirs. 🩷 Maybe that someone is you. https://www.realrottweilerrescue.com/dogs/lily-pad-1qix

Story
👑 ALLOW ME TO INTRODUCE MYSELF, I’M KING.👑 I am 3 years old! I got the height for the NBA, 🏀 the personality for the spotlight, 🔦 but thankfully for you, I decided to be a Rottweiler instead! When I first arrived at the rescue, I had a little bit of a problem with something called selective hearing. 🫣 I’ve since been informed that when someone says, “King, come here,” I am, in fact, expected to come here. I’m still reviewing that policy even though I follow it now, But in my defense… what man doesn’t have a little selective hearing? 😉 I’m actually a pretty fantastic guy. ☺️ One of my favorite things in the entire world is getting in the car. 🚙 Tell me we’re going somewhere and I’m ready before you are. I love the idea that every car ride could lead to something exciting, and honestly, I’d be perfectly happy being your permanent passenger. 😉 I’m great on leash, I crate nicely, I know how to shake, 🫨 I’m happiest when there’s something happening and I get to be part of it. And while I may look like I should have my own throne, I’m really just a goofy, 🙃 affectionate boy who wants to hang out with his people. I do have some royal decrees: 👑 Female dogs around my size are my preferred court companions, with a proper introduction. 🚫 Cats and small animals no need to apply. I have prey drive, and I take that job very seriously. 👑 Small small children aren’t my best match simply because I’m a BIG, strong dude. Older kids or adults would be much better suited for my royal presence. But honestly, I think my size is only part of what makes me special. I’m the kind of dog you notice when I walk into a room. You notice the height. You notice the giant Rottweiler head. You notice the goofy expression.n And then you spend a little time with me and realize… Oh. He’s just a big ol’ sweetheart. ❤️ I’m King.👑 I’m ridiculously tall. I’m ridiculously handsome. I’m slightly opinionated. I may occasionally forget that I’ve been asked to do something. But I’m also loyal, fun, affectionate, and always ready to see what’s around the next corner. So if you’re looking for a dog who can make you laugh, fill up your entire backseat, and make every ordinary car ride feel like we’re headed somewhere important… I think we should meet. After all… Every king needs his kingdom. 👑❤️ Hope to meet you soon! https://www.realrottweilerrescue.com/dogs/king-g8ov
