Story
Meet Jimmy – your new favorite little shadow with a tail!   Jimmy is already living his best life and is so happy to be here. This sweet boy wakes up every day like it’s the best day ever — because to him, it is! Jimmy is a toy enthusiast and firmly believes that life is better when you always have a ball nearby. Toss it? Amazing. Squeak it? Incredible. Carry it around proudly like a trophy? Absolutely. He’s never met a toy he didn’t love. This smart pup is easy to train and very food motivated, which makes teaching him new tricks both fun and rewarding. Got treats? You’ve got his full attention. He’s already doing great walking on a leash and enjoys his strolls like a little pro. Car rides? No problem — Jimmy settles in nicely and is happy to be your co-pilot. He gets along well with other dogs and would love a playful buddy, but he’d also be perfectly content soaking up all the love as your one and only. Jimmy does like to know where his people are — he’s a loyal little guy who enjoys being close and keeping tabs on his favorite humans. If you’re looking for a joyful, toy-loving, easygoing puppy who’s equal parts playful and devoted, Jimmy is ready to roll into your life (probably with a ball in his mouth).  housetrained and crate trained  Adoption fee: $525, includes 1st 2 DAPP, deworming, flea preventative, microchip, neuter   If you are interested in adopting, please fill out an application and a representative will get back to you shortly to answer any questions you may have.

Story
Gigi is a very sweet and spry 8 year old. She loves to chase tennis balls and is an avid squirrel chaser. While she neither retrieves the tennis balls nor catches squirrels, nothing dampers her enthusiasm. Now that the kids are finishing college, we find ourselves traveling often and sometimes for weeks at a time for work and to visit family. This sweet girl deserves a home where she has family present on a more consistent basis. Ideally we would prefer to find a pet share arrangement for a year or two - so that she can spend time with the kids when they are home a few weeks in the summer and December. And we would be willing to cover vet expenses during that time. We are also open to finding her the right forever. She’s such a sweet girl and we promise that whenever you take her for a walk - people will remark about her “unique” look. :)

She is very submissive and a little shy at first but wants she warms up she loves belly rubs! She get's that from her mom! She is great with other dogs of all sizes but prefers medium and small dogs. The bigger dogs make her a little nervous. She is working on leash walking, potty training and crate training. She is currently 23 lbs with long legs. She is just a sweet girl looking for love and a place to lounge around! Tammy is available for adoption with Saving Grace Dog Rescue of San Antonio. The adoption fee is $195 local or $395 out of state with transport. An adoption application and adoption contract are all required.

We get to know each dog as an individual and will do our best to describe each of our dogs based on personality, not by breed label.
