Story
Baby Bat embodies the personality, uniqueness and likeness of the Batman. First, he works alone. No sidekicks or partners. He prefers solitude and his space. Baby Bat has lived with his foster and her dog pack for 5 years, he gets along with them but tolerates them at most. He would do well in a home where he is the only dog, no children, and adults only. Next, Baby Bat is an apex predator. Which means he needs his sleep and food and not to be interrupted or coddled when given either. Baby Bat is not a lap or cuddly dog. Finally, did we mention Baby Bat is a Chihuahua mix? That's a really important detail! Baby Bat is a great and loyal dog seeking a great family to adopt him! Local adoption fee is $200 (in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $400 (includes transport to your area - $50 Temporary Fuel Charge will be added)

Story
This is Buddy, and he can't wait to be yours! Buddy is a sweet young Chihuahua mix that started life off as a feral, until he was caught by a sweet and loving foster. Buddy got the good life after that! Spoiled with treats and given so much love he's developed into a great dog. He's a very friendly boy and does great with pretty much everyone. He would do best in a household with an active family. Buddy does tend to bark at smaller animals so he would do best in a household that doesn't have farm animals or other small pets. Dogs and cats he is fine with, though he has not had much experience with cats. Buddy would do well paired with another calm and confident dog. Local adoption fee is $200 (in TX)

Story
Aretha – R.E.S.P.E.C.T. – Here’s what it means to me… R – Rolling in the car with you E – Eagerly looking forward to everyday companionship with you S – Snuggles and smiles galore P – Playtime, yes… Lots of playtime E – Eating treats during training sessions C – Cuddles and lot of laptime T – Toy toss And now, more about me… I am a super sweet, gentle girl that had a litter of 4 adorable puppies. I am a very young mama, but was a great mama and I was spayed on 2/6/25. I get along well with humans, dogs of all sizes (even puppies). My foster Mom has 2 cats, but not sure what my relationship is with them because I was separated from them and focused on my puppies the majority of the time. I have so much love to give and I am looking forward to learning tricks and being an important companion to you and your family. Local adoption fee is $200 (in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $450 (includes transport to your area)
