Story
Meet Venancio! 🐾💙 2.5 years old | 15 pounds | Shih Tzu/Schnauzer mix Venancio is an easygoing, lovable little guy with a heart as soft as his fluffy coat. Friendly with everyone he meets, he gets along beautifully with dogs of all sizes and would especially love a home with a playful canine buddy to keep him company. This sweet boy is happiest when he’s curled up next to his person on the couch, soaking in snuggles and affection — but don’t let that fool you! He’s always ready to hop up for a walk, a car ride, or whatever adventure the day brings. His calm, adaptable nature makes him a wonderful companion for many different lifestyles. Venancio is also good with cats and has lovely manners. He’s still working on house training, but he’s making progress and doesn’t mind wearing a belly band while he learns. If you’re looking for a gentle, affectionate sidekick who will be your cuddle buddy, walking partner, and loyal friend all in one, Venancio is ready to meet you.

Story
Matcha — A Little Fighter With a Big Heart Matcha came to us from Laredo, Texas, after being given to one of our street rescuers. She arrived matted from head to toe and had to be shaved down for her comfort and health. As her coat grows back, she’ll benefit from professional grooming to help her feel her best again. She’s a Shih Tzu–Dachshund mix with a rough beginning, but you’d never know it from her spirit. Matcha is a super sweet girl, gentle, loving, and so grateful for every bit of kindness she receives. She’s ready to leave her past behind and start fresh with a family who will cherish her. Matcha has all the makings of a wonderful companion — she just needs someone to give her the chance she’s been waiting for. Matcha is located in Hondo, Texas She is CHAGAS and heartworm negative.

Story
Please contact Jamesa (roxysrescue@yahoo.com), 713-882-2610 for more information about this pet.This stout short & stocky guy reminds me of a heavy and strong TANK so that is what I named him.  He is 35 pounds and a medium-small dog that is 5 years old and just built sturdy and solid.  He has a bit of Shih Tzu in him with that Terrier.  Now his personality is just the opposite, he is sooooo well-mannered with a curious behavior.  He follows me around like a student waiting for me to guide him and teach him what to do.  TANK is mellow, very quiet and just goes with the flow.  He never bothers the other foster dogs and they do not bother him.  He is crate and potty trained, walks well on a leash and jumps right in the car ready to go wherever. This guy would be a great first dog or a dog for someone who is not that active because the daily maintenance on him is very low.  He does enjoy a leisurely walk though because he likes to sightsee. We know he is some type of terrier mix but not sure what kind and he will probably need to be groomed every 3-4 months to keep his pretty golden coat looking good. If you are interested in adopting TANK, please submit an application on the website below.  Thank you. www.roxysk9rescue.org   ADOPTION FEE & APPLICATION REQUIRED   Roxxy's K-9 Rescue does not have a shelter, all of our dogs are raised in foster homes.  Each dog comes  spay/neutered (fixed), rabies shots appropriate for their age, and dewormed twice.  The dogs are up to date on vaccinations according to their age at the time of adoption.  They are microchipped, heartworm tested and on monthly flea/tick and heartworm preventative.  ALL OF THIS IS INCLUDED IN THE ADOPTION FEE. We transport across the United States. Medical records will come with each dog at the time of adoption. Our organization is run by volunteers/foster parents, please be patient to give us time to respond to your emails and/or phone calls.  We will reply to you.  Thank you.         August 8, 2025, 10:53 am

Story
Please contact Jamesa (roxysrescue@yahoo.com), 713-882-2610 for more information about this pet.This cute little boy is ANDY, he was named Raggedy ANDY because he looks so bad full of mats and overgrown hair.  He had been on the streets a long time by no fault of his own.  Someone on a street in San Antonio knew him and his owner.  His owner died and the family put poor ANDY on the streets.  The neighbors felt sorry for him and would take turns feeding him.  Once the winter got cold on a 26 degree night, a friendly neighbor put a sweater on him and allowed him to sleep in their gargage but that neighbor too tossed him back on the streets.  Another neighbor could not stand it any longer and called me to take him in. It took 2 days to groom ANDY with the hard mounds of mats on him and he just sat there very quiet and patiently waiting to get all of the stuff off of him.  Pictures are available. ANDY is 2 years old and 18 pounds and a great little guy.  He really likes following me around but he is pretty independent, not a velcro dog although he does like to cuddle and be close to watch TV.  He walks very well on a leash and does not get car sick and of course he still very well for a bath and to be groomed which he will need to be groomed about every 6-8 weeks. He gets along with the other foster dogs, crate and potty trained.  If you are interested in adopting ANDY please submit an application on the website below.  Thank you. www.roxysk9rescue.org     ADOPTION FEE & APPLICATION REQUIRED   Roxxy's K-9 Rescue does not have a shelter, all of our dogs are raised in foster homes.  Each dog comes  spay/neutered (fixed), rabies shots appropriate for their age, and dewormed twice.  The dogs are up to date on vaccinations according to their age at the time of adoption.  They are microchipped, heartworm tested and on monthly flea/tick and heartworm preventative.  ALL OF THIS IS INCLUDED IN THE ADOPTION FEE.
