Rex, chihuahua and corgi mix

Rex is a lovable male chihuahua and corgi mix staying at Shelter2Rescue Coalition.

Rex's current caretakers say:

Meet little Rex. What a happy little chap he is. He's a friendly boy. He likes to run and play, and he loves toys. A comfy bed or snuggle on a lap or next to you would be nice.

Thomas, rottweiler

Thomas is an affectionate male rottweiler dog currently residing at Southern States Rescued Rottweilers.

Thomas gets along great with other dogs, and would absolutely love to be adopted together with his sister. His ideal forever home would be a cat-free environment. He would also do best in a one-story house. His vaccinations are up to date, he's neutered and he has mastered his house-training etiquette. Thomas is a special-needs pet, so please inquire about his specific care requirements.

Here's what Thomas' friends at Southern States Rescued Rottweilers think of him:

Thomas loves to go outside with his sister Chloe and has to smell everything. He even goes out in the rain, but his sister does what she needs to do and is ready to go in. Thomas likes to walk, so he'll be your shadow. Thomas and Chloe need someone who wants two love bugs!

Rock, rottweiler

A few words Rock's current caretaker:

Meet Rock! Although he has had a difficult life, he has a great attitude. With the people he knows, he is affectionate, loving and content to lay at their feet. He is working on learning how to play and enjoy life!
