Story
Introducing Cookie, a brave Shih Tzu who's finally stepping out of her old world as a retired puppy mill mom and looking to embrace a brighter, kinder life. This gentle girl has spent years in less-than-happy circumstances, but she's ready now to meet a family who will show her what it means to be cherished. All About Cookie: Age: 6 years young Breed: Shih Tzu Personality: Cookie is a delicate, shy little lady who's still learning that people can be wonderful friends. She's hesitant but oh-so-sweet, greeting her humans with a waggy, barky fanfare each time they enter. Though she's curious about people, she's more of a "watch from a distance fan than a cuddle bug right now. Sudden movements make her wary, and she's not one for being picked up-but she'll eagerly keep a loving eye on her humans, checking in to make sure everyone's alright. With soft beds, tasty treats, and gentle words, she'll thrive in a home that doesn't expect instant snuggles. Special Needs: Cookie's still getting comfortable with home life, and she's working on her trust and house-training. With patience and a gentle approach, her loving nature is sure to blossom over time. Doggy Friends: Other dogs are her comfort zone! Cookie absolutely needs a calm canine buddy who can be her guide and help her gain confidence in her new home. A kind, gentle dog will be the friend she needs to feel truly secure. The Perfect Home for Cookie: Doggy Companions: Cookie thrives with a friendly dog sibling by her side. Having a buddy is a must! Patient, Understanding Family: A family who will give her time to trust and love at her own pace. Calm, Quiet Environment: A peaceful home with gentle routines will be ideal, helping Cookie slowly adjust to life as a loved family member. If you're ready to give Cookie the safe, loving home she's been waiting for, she's ready to meet you. Be part of her journey as she transforms from a life of hardship to a world filled with love, patience, and the joy of true companionship. Please give your veterinarian permission to provide a reference prior to applying, and let us know once you've done so.

HOTCH is 18 months old and weighs 14 pounds and came in with his sister HILLARY.  They were found on the streets just sitting in the pouring rain and they looked a mess.  Can provide pictures of them found. This brother and sister duo are a bonded pair and need to be adopted together.  HOTCH is the more cuddly with me and likes to just hang out with me on the couch watching TV.  HILLARY is more social and playful with the other dogs in my home.  She is especially close to 2 tiny chihuahua's I have.  They may look a little mean or reserved but they are happy and have come a long way since coming into my home.  They walk very well on a leash without pulling and riding in the car without getting sick.  They love treats, chicken jerky treats! Both are completely healthy and playful but quiet and calm.  If you are interested in adopted them, please 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.

Please contact Jamesa (roxysrescue@yahoo.com), 713-882-2610 for more information about this pet.If you are able to view the pictures, please email me and I will send them to you.  Thank you. Hillary and her brother Hotch came to me at the beginning of the year after being found just sitting on the street in the pouring rain.  They looked a mess.  They were always nice and quiet when they came in but they are happy and playing with all of the other dogs in my home even though it looks like they have a mean scroll on their face. Both are 18 months old and weigh 14 pounds.  Hillary has a bum leg due to a very old injury.  I considered amputation but the leg is not in her way or bothering her.  I have attached a video of her walking so you can see she is NOT special needs and nothing needs to be done to keep her healthy.  There is no maintenance for the leg or anything to keep her comfortable.  Both walk well on the leash, no pulling and ride in the car without getting sick.  They really do not play with toys but rather each other.  Their energy level is low considering how young they are. Hillary and Hotch are a bonded pair and have to be adopted together. They love to be loved on and are a sweet pair.  Hotch is more of the snuggler and sticks close to me.  Hillary is more social with the other dogs in my home.  I have more pictures I can provide of them.

Please contact Jamesa (roxysrescue@yahoo.com), 713-882-2610 for more information about this pet.ADOPTED!!!   SORRY FOR ANY INCONVENIENCE THAT THE PICTURES ARE NOT SHOWING UP.  I WILL SEND THEM TO ANYONE WHO IS INTERESTED. Sally came to me with a name that she already knew but if not I would have named her DOWNY because she is always in my laundry basket or on the couch, wherever my fresh laundry is, she can be found.  She actually likes to bury herself in clothe, blankets and pillows.  She is right now hiding in between lots of pillows for the dogs. This girl is a funny little girl but quiet and sweet.  Sally is 4 1/2 years old and 16 pounds, she will not grow anymore.  She walks very well on a leash and rides in the car without getting sick.  Sally gets along with all of the dogs, she actually is very independent and does not bother with the dogs so she would be fine as the only dog in the home.  She loves following me around and just hanging out with me. If you are interested in adopting SALLY please submit an application on the website below.  All of our dogs are located in San Antonio, TX but can be transported once they are adopted.  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.

Please contact Jamesa (roxysrescue@yahoo.com), 713-882-2610 for more information about this pet.OMAR is listed as yellow but he is really blonde.  He is 5 years old and 17 pounds and cries/whines loudly to go potty.  He gets along with all of the foster dogs in my home and of course he is partial to the females as his play partners!  Yes, they are all fixed but he just likes the girls. OMAR walks well on a leash and rides in the car without getting sick.  He enjoys hanging with his humans and chewing on his bully sticks.  He is also crate trained but it is hard to leave him in a crate when I am home because he has a fit wanting to get out.  He likes toys and runs zoomies in the yard with the other dogs.

Please contact Jamesa (roxysrescue@yahoo.com), 713-882-2610 for more information about this pet.ABBY is near and dear to my heart.  She was a total mess when she came in, oh my gosh you could barely touch her but she wanted to be touched so she could feel love.  She looks so much better now and has healed from being on the streets for so long.  ABBY was used as a breeding machine.  Her poor body showed that she had given birth continuously over the years. Even after a few years of hard labor ABBY is a sweet love who sticks close by and loves on me every chance she gets.  She has to fit in with the other foster dogs in my home and sometimes it is a challenge to find a spot.  But ABBY talks!!  She tries to tell me what she wants and like a crazy dog lady I talk back to her just to keep her going. ABBY loves to sit on my lap and sleep with me but she will sleep in a doggy bed if there is no space next to me occupied by other small breed dogs.  She gets along with all of the dogs, she doesn't bother them and they do not bother her.  She rides in the car without getting sick and walks very well on a leash. ABBY is a pure breed Shih Tzu, 5 years old and 12 pounds.  If you are interested in adopting her please 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.
