My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Hi, my name is Melody, but my foster parents call me Mama because I just had 10 puppies! I’m a gentle soul who doesn’t bark or jump, making me a calm presence in the home. I get along great with other dogs and cats, and I’ve shown no signs of food aggression. Though I can be a bit timid at times, my sweet nature shines through.

I absolutely love to play tug o’ war and enjoy going for walks on a leash. I also adore snuggling up in bed if you’ll let me. However, I do get nervous in the car and don’t like being in a kennel. I can be a bit destructive if left alone, so having company is important to me. I’m housebroken if you catch me at the door in time.

While I do okay around children, babies make me a bit nervous because they’re unpredictable. I’m looking for a loving home where I can feel safe and secure. If you’re looking for a sweet, gentle companion who loves to play and snuggle, I’m your girl!
IMPORTANT: Please read all below, especially if you live outside of Texas, which is where our rescue is located.

Apply to adopt on our website: https://www.charmingpetrescue.org/adopt

All of our animals are spayed/neutered, microchipped, and up to date on shots.

ALL of our animals are located in Boerne, TX, but transport after adoption is available to other states for a $300 fee for dogs or an additional fee varying by location for cats. If you are seeing our pets posted in your state, that's because you live near a transport stop, they are not currently at that location.

Petfinder lists our pets as 'Out of Town' pets at other locations, and Adopt-a-Pet lists our location as a Transport stop. Those are currently the only options they offer to make this clear, so we put this description we've put at the bottom to explain it. You can read more about transport here: www.charmingpetrescue.org/transport

We understand transport is not an option for everyone, but we offer it at the cost we pay the transport company for those who wish to adopt from us.July 6, 2024, 11:30 am

More about this rescue

We're a home-based rescue, so there's always someone around to care for the dogs. Most of our dogs are allowed to roam the main yard (as long as they behave themselves), and we have several food and water stations throughout. Every evening, the dogs are tucked into our kennel building with soft bedding.

Our focus is family-friendly dogs who get along with everyone. Of course, we sometimes don't know a dog's temperament until we meet, but we work hard to ensure dogs are going to the right homes for them.

Mission Statement
To provide rescue, rehabilitation and new loving homes for dogs that have been living on the street, abused, abandoned and removed from high kill shelters.
