Story
Percy is a 2-3 yr old Shihtzu mix weighing 15 lbs. He is from the Pearsall shelter and came to our rescue completely neglected. He is a good boy and loves to sit on his hind legs and give prayers in his crate. haha. He gets along with everyone in his group, especially the ladies. Percy is heartworm negative and Chagas positive but don't let that deter you. With treatment, Chagas is fully curable, and dogs go on to live long, happy lives. Tracy’s Paws is one of the first rescues to test every dog for Chagas, and we’ve had measurable success with our treatment protocol. We are also committed to educating adopters and the public about Chagas so even more dogs can be helped. Percy is available for transport to St. Petersburg, FL on February 21, 2026 with an approved application. His adoption fee is $450 which includes the transport fee. Every dog adopted through Tracy’s Paws receives: • Chagas, heartworm, and tick testing (when age-appropriate) • All core vaccines (age-appropriate) • Heartworm and flea/tick preventatives • Regular Deworming • Spay/neuter surgery • Microchip 

Breed listings are our best guess, based on appearance.

Ash — The Little Puffball With a Big Heart Ash may be small, but this adorable baby has a personality that shines. With his soft, fluffy coat and bright, curious eyes, he’s the kind of pup who makes everyone stop and smile. Born to Raven, the crazy‑haired cuddle queen, Ash has inherited all her sweetness — and then some. He loves people, loves being held, and is happiest when he’s snuggled up close. Ash is gentle, playful, and already learning that laps are the best place in the world. After being rescued with his mom, he’s ready to grow up in a home where he’ll be safe, loved, and cherished every single day. If you’re looking for a tiny sweetheart who will fill your home with joy, Ash is waiting to wiggle his way into your heart. Ash is located in Hondo, Texas; however, Ash will be available for transport on February 21 to St. Petersburg, FL. Adoption fee is $500 which includes the transport fee.

Story
Lulu came into rescue as an owner surrender. Lulu's owner could not get her to stop peeing in the house and she decided that Lulu needed a different home. Lulu is absolutely adorable but she can be snippy from what we have been told. We have not experienced this yet from her so our experiences with her have been good, so far. Lulu loves to be with her person. She does ok with other dogs but she can get jealous when she is with her person and will growl sometimes. She would probably prefer to be an only "child" so she can get all of the attention and loves for herself and not have to share. Lulu would probably be fine with cats although we have nome to test her with. We would not recommend her for a home with smaller children because of what we were told about her snippiness. Older kids who can respect her space would probably be fine. Lulu is leash trained and crate trained. She can be an escape artist and a runner so it is important that you have a secure, fenced yard and/or walk her routinely. Lulu is a sweet girl who will be a wonderful companion and if you enjoy traveling, she would make a great traveling companion, as well. We were told that Lulu loves to ride! Lulu saw the vet on 3/4/25 with her original owner and was found to have no issues. She has been started on Simparica Trio for flea control and heartworm prevention with us and had a negative heartworm test completed on 1/9/26. She did test negative for intestinal parasites on 1/15/26. Lulu weighed 9.8 pounds as of 1/15/26. She is fully vetted now and ready to find her forever family. If interested in giving Lulu her forever home, please submit your interest and your adoption application via email or text ONLY to 352-215-3260 (phone calls will not be answered or returned from this number). Lulu's adoption fee will be $400 to help cover the cost of her vetting and daily care while with us. We will only consider applicants who complete the adoption application and will determine whether the applicant would be a good fit for Lulu based on the info provided in the application. If we feel that you will be a good match for her, we will set up a meet and greet appointment with you.

Story
Peanut, a 17 lb bundle of joy is an all around enjoyable 9 month old Shorkie, a Shi Tzu and Yorkie mix. He is bright eyed and beautiful, all Shi-Tzu on the inside with an adorable Yorkie coat. This is a wonderful dog who, with training, is going to mature into a solid family member of a very lucky family. Peanut is good with cats great with other dogs, and never met a person he didn’t lick/like. Peanut would be grateful in an active home. Peanut is fully vetted, neutered and microchipped His adoption fee is $950.00. We are a small rescue, and a portion of this fee helps support the ongoing care of our dogs, including Milo, a Little Cavalier who requires surgery on both back legs. This is how we ensure every dog receives the proper medical care and support they deserve. Please note our adoption policies: We do not adopt to families with young children. Seniors are encouraged to consider adopting a more mature dog. We do not adopt out of state unless the adopter has a second home in our area. Thank you for understanding and for supporting responsible rescue and adoption.

Story
8 year old Male Shih-TzuMeet Tiny, an 8-year-old Shih Tzu in search of a new forever home after the passing of his owner. Tiny weighs 13 pounds, is fully housebroken, and is a quiet, gentle boy. He is a true companion dog who loves being by your side, soaking up belly rubs, and going for leisurely walks. Tiny needs a one-story home or apartment. While he can manage going up stairs, his short legs make it difficult for him to go down. He gets along with other dogs but doesn’t actively interact with them and seems happiest as the only dog in the home. Tiny’s ideal home would be with someone who enjoys taking him for walks, has plenty of love to give, and is looking for a loyal companion who will give that love right back .     *** Adoption Fee includes: Surgery for spay/neuter, microchip, heartworm test, fecal, current on vaccines, heartworm and flea/tic prevention. Dogs Rule Rescue Group is a 501(c) 3 nonprofit organization. We are an all volunteer rescue group, and survive solely on donations. 100 % of all adoption fees are spent on saving the life of homeless and abandoned dogs.
