Story
Meet Kiki! Kiki is a 4-year-old Maltese mix who proves that the best things come in small packages. Despite her rough start, this sweet and adorable girl is full of love and ready to find her perfect forever home. Neglected by her previous owner, Kiki has shown incredible resilience and is now eager to start her new life as a cherished companion. Kiki dreams of a family who will adore her as much as she deserves. She’d love nothing more than to join you for leisurely walks, maybe strolling through Mystic or window shopping together. And when it’s time to relax, she’ll happily curl up on your lap while you sip your morning coffee. She’s the perfect mix of sweetness, charm, and companionship. It’s hard to imagine how someone could let this darling girl suffer for so long. Kiki came to us in heartbreaking condition—her body “eaten” by fleas, and her matted fur caked with filth. But those days are behind her now, and she’s ready to start fresh with a family who will love her endlessly. If you can offer Kiki the love and care she’s always deserved, apply today at www.allpawsondeck.org. This little doll is ready to bring joy to your life!

Story
Please contact Jamesa (roxysrescue@yahoo.com), 713-882-2610 for more information about this pet.Oh what a sweetheart RUBY is and she has come a long way since coming into my home.  When she was found 3 months ago with her brother and dad roaming the streets of San Antonio, TX she had no socialization skills.  I had to walk around holding her, laying on the floor on her level keeping her company and just treating her like a real foster child to get use to my home.  RUBY now comes to me for head rubs and she snuggles with me to sleep and just be close.  A long way of improvements since she use to run from me. She is very crate trained and goes to her crate automatically when I say it is time for me to go out.  She is mostly potty trained, 75% trained.  She runs out of her crate to the backdoor immediately to go potty.  I do not have a doggy door. RUBY would love to go to a home with a pet playmate, she will not do good as an only pet as she follows the dogs around and they are her security.  She is a follower and such a good girl.  She gets along with everyone and walks well on a leash and rides in the car without getting car sick. RUBY is 10 months old and weighs 10 pounds.  Her dad only weighed 14 pounds so I do not expect that she will exceed that weight as a true adult.  There was no sign of her mother anywhere.  She is already so cute but she has a slight underbite which makes her even cutier and unique. RUBY will require grooming every 8-10 weeks because her hair grows and you do not want it to start matting. If you are interested in adopting RUBY please call me or 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.         December 2, 2024, 9:46 am
