Story
Riley is a sweet girl! She is a 10 year old, 20 pound chihuahua mix. She came to Charming Pet Rescue after her human passed away. She arrived at the rescue with her two sisters, one brother and two cats.After losing her human, Riley is still getting used to her new environment. Riley is just now allowing for you to pet her. Riley will need time for you to gain her trust but she is making progress every day. Riley enjoys naps on the couch and rolling around outside in the grass. She is working on losing a few pounds. While her foster sisters and brother run around, she enjoys walking a few laps in the backyard following her foster mom.Riley is house trained and sleeps in her crate. She gets along well with the three dogs in the foster home. She recently received dental work and is fully vetted.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/adoptAll 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.

Story
Meet Mac! This happy go lucky boy is around 5 years old and is a Dachshund mix. He does have vision issues. He can see, but bot 100%. He is the perfect medium sized dog weighing about 30 pounds. He loves going on car rides and going for walks. He would prefer to be the only pet in the home as he does not like dogs being up in his face and sharing his toys. As you can tell from all his pictures he always has a smile on his face and loves getting all the attention. He is neutered, current on vaccines, negative for heartworm, and microchipped.
