Archie is a large 9yr Lab mix, weighs 68 lbs. Archie has a white beard and white sock feet. Very well mannered. Loves to give kisses. He is crate trained and has not pottied in his crate. We are not sure how he is with housetraining as he has only been in kennels since being rescued. He appears to not like other dogs next to him in kennel s. So he may need to be an only pet. Was cat tested at shelter and does not get along with cats. He is being treated for heartworm infection and is not contagious. It is curable and would require coming back to the rescue for three injections over a three month period. We cover all costs. If interested please fill out an application on rescuepetsservingvets.org.

Gunner is grateful for being saved from the kill shelter, and is now just looking for his family 

Also, don't let that pink collar fool you - he's all boy 

Gunner is 3 years old, 61 pounds, neutered, HW+ (He's being treated and not contagious), AND house trained! 

Gunner loves all people, including kiddos! He seems to like other dogs, but a meet and greet is required as always. He's not cat tested yet (can provide if you're interested him and have kitties).

Samuel is looking for his furever family! 

This sweet man is so cute - his left back leg is shorter than the others so he runs and walks a little differently. Its from a birth defect or old injury, but it doesn't slow him down.

Sam is about 5 years old, neutered, and heartworm negative. He's got a great temperament with people and seems to love everyone.

Sam is dog selective, so a meet and greet with your dog would be necessary. He needs a home without cats.

Doreen is a very loving, calm and mellow gal with a good balance of playfulness.  She loves to expresses her joy with zoomies around the yard.  She is between 2 - 5 yrs and weighs 50-60 lbs

Cypress is a light & dark brown brindle handsome boy. Approximately 2 yrs old & 52 lbs. He enjoys playing with toys and gentle pets. Takes treats gently. Heartworm negative & will be neutered before adoption

Kimbo is approximately 5 yrs old & 56 lbs. He will be neutered and treated for heartworms.  This sweet boy is always happy to see you and has a very playful nature. He can have spurts of energy so recommend kids over 10 and meet & great with any furry companions but has done well with other calm dogs. He loves his treats and takes them gently.

2y old 40lb. Extremely sweet with people, loves to play with other dogs, happy to sit in your lap for attention. Short in stature but big in heart. Fairly good on leash, knows how to sit on command. Heartworm treatment completed which is curable and no longer contagious. Kameron is housetrained. He is higher energy so we feel he would do well in a home that has a fenced in yard.

Lamb is a neutered male that came into the San Antonio's Animal Control as a stray animal with several bite injuries from a dog fight. We had since all healed up with no noticeable  scars. He is receiving treatment for heartworm infection which is curable and not contagious once treatment has begun. I hope there is someone out there that will give sweet Lamb a chance. He is not friendly with other dogs at this point most likely because of fear after the dog fight where he got superficial wounds. Fairly good on a leash. He is very loving with people! Please come and meet this boy!

Diamond, a 2 yr old female,  is a very unusual mix between a blue Doberman and a German Shepherd or Lab??? She is unique it is hard to tell! She knows sit and will take treats gently. She is a good girl for waiting patiently. Previous owners clearly didn't deserve her...they left her abandoned and chained to a pole to starve in Texas. She is housetrained and likely would be an amazing house dog for a family! She very much wants and craves human attention. She is currently being treated for heartworm at our rescue and we cover charges for that. She has had no signs or symptoms of the disease so we expect treatment to go well. It is curable and not contagious at this stage of treatment. Is transmitted only by mosquitos so not a worry either for that reason it's too cold! She has to receive some pills and a set of three injections of medicine over a three month period. She is able to go to a home at anytime as long as she can return for the days of the injections. She is so beautiful inside and out! Please come and meet this very soft hearted beauty! Meet and greet with other dogs would be required if an adopter has other dogs in the household. She seems to ignore dogs as she walks past them in kennels, however she seems to be a bit of a fence fighter when she is inside the kennels next to other dogs. Likely just the chaos. But we do have to test her more one on one with other dogs on leash walks before we can accurately determine her dog compatibility. We have not cat tested her yet. She does have a fairly thick coat but not long hair. Please help her find her happy ending!

Crystal has been here so long because of her breed and she should be an only pet. She loves people and loves to play with toys but we were told she is dog reactive. We have not seen any evidence of that here but due to the warning we have not let her freely interact with other dog to test that theory. She was only lightly positive on a heartworm antigen tear but negative in a smear so we are treating her for heartworm and retesting her soon. We hope she will be negative on this test. Please consider meeting this girl! She would be a great running or hiking companion! And also loves to lay on her pet bed and chew bones peacefully ! She just needs to meet the right human for her. She is about 2-3 yr old. She is current on vaccines and microchipped. She was also aired on channel 16 news 'channel 16 to the rescue'

Fiona is looking for her home. We think it will take time probly....She is 2 years old, spayed, heartworm negative and about 45 pounds.  Fiona is a little fearful of men, but once they give her a hamburger and a little time she warms up. She has been fearful of very young kids. She did not test well with cats . She's a little nervous here at the rescue and would love a nice warm place to call home. We could see her doing well with a single woman perhaps or a couple w a quiet home. She's extremely sweet once she trusts you. Text Casey if you'd like to meet Fiona 570-441-0083!

She came all the way from almost being euthanized in a Texas shelter to now a happy little girl looking for her furever home. If you like to play and ruff house this girl is for you! And she can also be a chill love muffin! We have not had the opportunity to test her with cats yet or really have her interact with other dogs yet but if interested we always recommend a meet and greet with other pets. We can cat test her if someone requests. Please meet this gorgeous girl and help her find her happy ending.

Spot is a white & brown brindle neutered male, HW negative, approx 8 yrs old, & 38 lbs. He's a bit underweight. All Spot wants is some affection and cuddles but loves to play too. He gets along with most dogs but always recommend a meet & greet.

Apple is a 58 lb 7-8 yr old American Staffordshire mix that has one blind eye from a stab wound. She was protecting her owner and later ended up abandoned at the animal shelter by the same owner. She is almost finished with her heartworm treatment. We cover that for cost and do it at the rescue. She is such a sweet dog! Has gotten along with other dogs but doesn't like them in her face. So probably a meet and greet would be recommended for anyone with another dog or she would be great as an only pet because she loves to give lovin to people! Please think about this sweet girl she deserves a happy ending after the hell she has been through. Text 570-441-0083 if interested in Apple and applications are available on our site rescuepetsservingvets.orgHave you opened a new location, redesigned your shop, or added a new product or service?
