Rex's Story

Meet Rex<br/><br/>My name Rex and I’m an 8 week old male pup born on 11/30 to my mama Lettie. Mom hitched a last minute ride from Texas after her owner went into hospice care and surprise, she was expecting! <br/><br/>We born at our wonderful foster families house and loved since the start! Our foster family has school aged kids, 2 other dog mamas and some really cool cats!<br/><br/>I’m expected to be a medium sized mixed breed since my mom is about 40lbs. I am 14 lbs and gaining!<br/><br/>My foster family says I am the perfect mix of chill and playful puppy! I love humans and use my adorable soulful puppy eyes to get me out of sticky situations where my puppy gets me in trouble - who doesn’t want to shred a potty pad? My foster mom thinks I will be a really great family dog since I mellow enough and friendly enough to adapt to any situation. <br/><br/>Since I am only just 8 weeks old and it’s SO cold out, I’m still using my potty pads and snuggling my siblings at night. But I am confident my forever family can set me up for success with positive reinforcement training and lots of treats! I am a smart boy and know I’ll be a quick learner like my sweet mama, maybe even athletic like her too!<br/><br/>Will you be my forever family?<br/><br/>Our standard adoption fee is $465. We offer a $15 discount for adopters who pay by cash or check, making the adoption fee $450.<br/><br/>The adoption fee includes spay/neuter when age appropriate at one of our participating veterinarians, age-appropriate core vaccinations, fecal test, deworming, current on flea and tick preventative, and microchip.<br/><br/>To ensure the best match for both our dogs and adopters, we require a fully completed adoption application, a phone interview, and a meet-and-greet with the entire household.
