Meet Rosie

Hi everyone! My name is Rosie, and I’m a happy little Shih Tzu girl with a big heart and an even bigger future ahead of me. I’m estimated to be about a year old, maybe even a little younger, and I’m ready to find the loving family I’ve been dreaming of.

Life has brought me a few changes recently. My previous owner was no longer able to care for me, so I found my way into foster care. While that was a little scary at first, it turned out to be the start of a wonderful new adventure!

I’m already spayed, microchipped, and fully vaccinated, so I’m all set for my forever home. All I need now is a family to love.

My foster home is full of furry friends, and I fit right in! I live with a Lab, a Westie, a Terrier puppy, and even a cat. I absolutely love playing with the dogs, and I’ve learned so much from Beau the Westie, who has become my role model. Whether we’re chasing toys, exploring the yard, or taking a nap together, I’m happiest when I’m surrounded by friends.

And while I enjoy playing with my four-legged buddies, people are my absolute favorite! I adore being close to my humans and am always ready to share my love. If you’re sitting down, don’t be surprised if I find my way into your lap. In fact, my foster mom says I’m a champion cuddler and the perfect little lap dog. I’ll happily snuggle beside you while you watch TV, read a book, or simply relax after a long day.

My foster mom says I’m a very good little girl and feels blessed to have me in her home. She tells me every day that I’m a special pup and that Lone Star Westie Rescue will help me find the most amazing family ever. I think she’s right!

I’m sweet, playful, friendly, and full of love to give. If you’re looking for a little companion who will happily join you for adventures, shower you with affection, and then curl up in your lap for a cuddle, I just might be your girl. Could you be my happily-ever-after?

Kisses Rosie

Tuffy & Mikey — A Bonded Pair Ready to Fill Your Home with Love (and Laughs!)

Tuffy & Mikey’s journey to us began at a local shelter, where they were surrendered after their beloved owner entered hospice care. It was a heartbreaking transition for these two boys, not because they were unwanted, but because their person could no longer care for them. Through this difficult change, they clung to the one comfort they’ve always had — each other.

From the moment they arrived in our rescue, it was clear they were a team — one heart, two wagging tails.    They came to us a little unsure and overwhelmed, but they found comfort in the one thing that has always been constant: each other. When one takes a step forward, the other follows. When one curls up to rest, the other is right beside them. Their bond is truly something special — the kind you can’t create, only discover.

Over the last couple of weeks, they’ve started to blossom:

  • They love gentle attention and cozy naps.
  • They follow their foster mom around like tiny, synchronized shadows.
  • And they’re learning what it means to feel safe, loved, and finally home.

Both boys are about 8 years and are in great health—though Tuffy is on a tiny weight‑loss journey to drop a pound or two.   And what a transformation after their recent grooming appointments — suddenly soft, shiny, and looking like two brand‑new boys.

They’re fully vaccinated and scheduled for dental cleanings soon, so they’ll be all set for their next chapter.

This duo is looking for a family who believes in second chances and understands how meaningful it is to keep them together. They don’t ask for much — just a quiet home, soft beds, and people who will love them as deeply as they love each other.

They are absolute lap dogs, quick to snuggle, quick to love, and quick to let you know when something dares to enter their yard.  If you are ready for twice the love, twice the joy, and two grateful little souls who will fill your home with warmth, this bonded pair may be the perfect match.  Visit LSWR.us to complete an online application.
