Meet Thelma ❤️‍🩹 - courtesy post.

Thelma is an 8-year-old, mini red-nosed pittie with a huge heart and a wiggly butt. Adopted from AAC nearly five years ago, she’s a loyal, affectionate girl who loves her people.

Thelma does have some leash and fenceline reactivity- something that started after the pandemic and worsened with a move. It’s manageable with positive reinforcement, and a professional trainer has generously offered free training support to her adopter. Her current family loves her deeply but is no longer able to provide the environment she needs and she must find a new home now. ❤️‍🩹

➡️ About Thelma:
- 8 years old, 45 lbs
- Spayed, up-to-date on vaccines
- Crate- and potty-trained
- Dog-selective (slow intros needed)
- Cat and kid friendly
- Loves fetch, grass zoomies & snuggles
- Walks well on leash with management
- Trainer support included
- Available for adoption near Austin, TX 📍

➡️ The ideal home for Thelma:
- Calm, patient, and dog-savvy guardian a plus
- Willing to work with a trainer (free support provided)
- No other dogs or slow, structured intros only
- Secure, fully fenced yard preferred
- Low-traffic home preferred
- Routine-focused environment with time for daily enrichment and cuddles

📩 Email [email protected] to get in touch with her support system.

We kindly ask that all comments remain respectful and focused on helping Thelma.

Two weeks ago we scooped up this little terrier after no one came forward. 🍜❤️‍🩹

Today he spent the morning on the operating table: surgeons rebuilt both ear canals and removed grape‑sized growths from each one. He was also neutered, started on meds for severe allergies, and given vaccines & preventatives.

We paid up front so Maru wouldn’t have to wait for relief, but the bill is climbing fast. Now we need your help to close the gap. 🙏

➡️ How to help
- Donate at rescueatxdogs.org/maru, or on Venmo (specify ‘for Maru’)
- Share with your networks

📩 Questions or adoption interest? [email protected]

Thank you for helping Maru get healthy and progress towards a forever home. ❤️

*If we reach the fundraising goal across the platforms, we will update all posts. Any excess funds will go towards our April vet bill.

Can you guess how Maru got his name? 🍜

One day, a volunteer saw Maru alone and living outside… she went back to the area a few days later. He was still there, drinking water out of a Maru Chan cup. She knocked on doors and talked to neighbors. They said he had shown up a few weeks before, but that he didn’t belong to anyone there. Once she caught him, she noticed his ears were horribly injured…she had never seen anything like it, they were completely swollen shut. 😢

One of our wonderful fosters opened her home for him. We took him to our vet to assess his needs and start medical treatment. We are hopeful his ears will improve with the current nonsurgical treatment plan. But we are also preparing for the likely possibility that he will need total ear canal ablation surgery. ❤️‍🩹

RAD will cover his medical care until he is healthy and cleared for adoption. We’d love for him to find a committed medical foster or his forever people to bond with during his recovery process. 🙏

About:
🔘 ~2 year old, 15 lbs, Cairn terrier
🔘 dog & cat friendly
🔘 house trained
🔘 smart and eager to please his people
🔘 pretty low energy, loves to lay in the sun and snuggle
🔘 can live with kids that don’t grab his ears
🔘 located around Austin, TX 📍

Wednesday has been adopted! 🖤

This sweet girl was found tied to a tree off of a hiking trail… luckily she was spotted by good samaritans and helped. A few hops later and she found her dad!

We are happy to have been part of Wednesday’s journey to get her ‘adoption ready’ with her spay and medical care, decompression time in foster, and gathering home notes to find her ideal placement. 🙌

We were able to take Wednesday in thanks to one of our committed fosters stepping forward— fostering truly saves lives!❤️

Her dad chose to adopt a dog in need, as the best ending to her ‘homeless dog’ chapter. Adopters that show pure joy for their new family member make this work worth it. 🥹
