Story
Hello from the mother land :) and by that I mean EARTH :) My name is Rossi and I am likely one of the most pupular breed mixes in TX- that would be Anatolian Shepherd and Great Pyrenees!! Now, me and my siblings didn't arrive with a mama or daddy with us so based on our size, fur, characteristics and markings the rescue deduced our fantastic breed mix! We may have some CHIHUAHUA in the mix as well, you never know when puppies come off the streets without parents :( Yes you heard that right... we were bottle babies taken to the pound at about 2 weeks old ;( It makes you wonder where the humanity is these days :( HOWEVER, we were saved by a wonderful bottle baby mama who fostered us for the rescue. And NOW LOOK AT ME!! I am a big sweet cuddly loving fluffy pup with years of love to give!! You can look at my siblings too- two already adopted but take a gander and Morgan, Millicent, Riley, or Reid! We are a beautiful group of pups looking for our one true loves! maybe that is you :) ADOPT ONE OF US SOON :) We are waiting!!! Local adoption fee is $250 (in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $550 (includes transport to your area)
