Story
With a face like that, you saw it, and a name like Raja, I'm pretty sure he was supposed to guard a royal castle but instead he took a few clown classes and caught the first bus pointed somewhere fun. He may have the looks for it but this big ol’ boy was not born for the “guard-dog” life. Unless its guarding you from the windshield wipers in the car- that is a mission he is deeeeply dedicated to. Raja is actually a gentle, prayerful soul whose greatest mission in life is loving his people deeply and, again, protecting them from those unpredictable and suspiciously energetic windshield wipers. Watch all of his lovable, adorable moves here then come back to read more about this absolute heartthrob. https://youtu.be/9VgMkdamHR8 Estimated to be around 5 years old and weighing in at a glorious 115 lbs, Raja is a true beefcake Rottweiler with movie-star looks and a heart made of marshmallow. He rides beautifully in the car- though he does expect that most trips will start (or end) in a pup cup or a kolache. (Honestly?Me too. And in his case, he is usually right. He has earned it afterall.)I will warn you now, Raja has a level of pretty privilege that defies explanation- drive-thru workers hand him snacks, on the house, and his local kolache spot sends his favorites at the first sight of his foster mom, even when he’s not present. Charisma like that cannot be taught, only appreciated and admired. In the car, Raja takes his role as protector seriously so lets go back to his life’s mission- protecting you from the windshield wipers- those untrustworthy little demons. Rest assured, if they act up, Raja is on it. He dutifully sits in the passenger seat, head out the window, breeze flapping the ears and folds around, but never distracting him from the moment those wipers get to movin’. He knows how to give a subtle warning though, he starts low with a few barks so don’t worry, he doesn't escalate beyond the appropriate. Raja is wonderful with other dogs of all sizes. He can be bouncy and playful, but he has great dog manners and knows how to take breaks when playtime winds down. That said, he doesn’t need a canine companion to be happy. Give him a ball, a patch of grass, and a person to love, and he will be heart-full and set. Truly, this boy is one of the best self-entertainers you could meet (or watch for entertainment) and watching him happily amuse himself is pure joy. He does need a home with a yard (that grass patch matters), and he’s looking for a cat-free home. He once loved a stuffed toy shaped like a cat and, bless his heart, does not understand the difference between plush and pet (or so the lore goes.) Better safe than sorry, right? Raja is smart, affectionate, and deeply bonded to his people. He’s the kind of dog who will stand watch when needed and then curl up close, convinced his job is never really done as long as you’re nearby. If you’re looking for a dog who looks like a guardian but lives for nightly prayer, cuddles, snacks, and devotion- Raja is ready to swear himself to you for life. Ready to welcome Raja home?

We proudly have over 17,000 successful adoptions and excellent Google Reviews: https://g.co/kgs/UQ5Pyai We care deeply about creating lasting matches between dog and family for long term success, and take the time to ensure each adoption is a fit through our matchmaking process. At our 2 acre Texas based property, we assess every animal with trainers on staff, we modify behavior as needed, and create individualized behavior plans to help prepare dogs for their future families including crate training, potty training, leash walking, etc. Our fosters are able to attend group training and socialization play groups helping them stay confident, well rounded, and adoption-ready. Our on-site trainers are dedicated to each dog’s growth and we enjoy seeing their progress! We go above and beyond to ensure every animal receives exceptional care. Veterinarians consistently praise our medical standards. From routine care to advanced treatments, each dog receives personalized attention. Hard costs for a healthy dog range from $804-$920; heartworm-positive dogs or those needing specialized care can exceed $2,000+. Adoption fees help cover a portion of these expenses, but without government funding, we rely on fundraising to bridge the gap—ranging from $100–$1,000+ per dog. Our adoption fees reflect the extensive care and resources that go into each animal we save. The adoption fee is a donation to the mission and goes far beyond getting a fully vetted pet.

Story
Bear is what you call a certified pre-owned Good Boy. He is a 2018 model, four-paw drive, and fully loaded with charm and wonderful manners. The boy is very lovable and turn-key ready for a home! He is currently in foster, and has had no accidents does well in the crate, gets along with the other dogs in the home, and is well-mannered. He will ask for as much affection as you will give him. He loves to play with people and dogs, and with his special weight-management diet, he is feeling more comfortable as he continues to lose weight. He loves the outdoors, and walks, and even brings you his toys so share. He loves his people, and would do best in a home where someone is around most of the time. Bear is currently available as Foster-To-Adopt as we wait on medical results.

Story
Welcome Rocky to CCPAL Rescue. He is a Rottweiler or Shepherd/Bulldog is our best guess on breed. He has a beautiful grey coat that is shorter and he is athletic and friendly. He weighs about 50 pounds and is a good weight and is about 1.5 years old. He has new adult teeth that are still nice and clean. He would be perfect for a runner, walker, jogger, hiker or athletic and outdoorsy family. He loves all people so you won’t have any trouble with him meeting new people. He would love to join a family on all their adventures. He is good in his kennel and goes potty in his outdoor space. He hasn’t been reactive when we had him on leash. He is a head turner for sure. He is getting his vaccinations and will be neutered and ready for his forever home in a couple of weeks. He is outgoing and would be fine with a family that has children. We would like children to be 8 or older. Rocky is not a big shedding dog. He is currently in Texas and can be adopted locally in Texas. We can also work with one of the wonderful transporters to get him to Washington, Portland (Oregon), Minnesota, Vermont or all along the East Coast. His adoption fee is 300 and transport is 200. Rhode Island and Massachusetts are not states we adopt because of the regulations imposed by these states Contact Marlene at 210-867-1769 or email to ccpalinquiries@gmail.com if you have questions.
