Success Stories

Figgy came to us as a stray — frightened, in heat, full of fleas, and smelling of motor oil. It took several baths to get her clean and comfortable, but it didn't take long for this sweet girl to settle right in. That nubby little tail never stopped wiggling! Figgy is spayed, vaccinated, microchipped, and heartworm negative. We are so happy she found her forever home!

Ember came to us as a 10-week-old puppy mill pup who was surrendered because she was simply too much puppy for her first family. She arrived with several medical issues that took a lot of love and time to resolve — but once healthy, she was absolutely worth the wait. Ember found her forever home with a family who has adopted from Poquita Paws four times before. She couldn't be in better hands!

Molly came to us as an owner surrender at just 10 months old — and she happens to be deaf. But that didn't slow her down one bit! Her forever family was already fluent in American Sign Language and had previous experience with deaf dogs, making them the perfect match. Molly is now thriving in a home that truly understands her world.

Bailey's story is nothing short of a miracle. This beautiful purebred Schnauzer was brought in for euthanasia without reason — and our vet said absolutely not. From that moment, Bailey found her way into the Poquita Paws family and now she has found her forever home. That expressive sweet face deserves all the pets and attention in the world!

EJ has found his forever home! This 14-pound, 4-year-old Shih Tzu who moves to his own drummer won hearts from the moment he arrived. Easy-going, loyal, and full of personality — EJ is now living his best life with his forever family.

Flower was found on the street keeping her baby girl Blossom safe through it all. This 12-pound Mini Poodle mix and devoted mama is now living her best life with her forever family.

This tiny 4-pound adventurer found on the streets of south San Antonio alongside her mom Flower has found her forever home. Smart, playful, and full of love — Blossom is living her best life!

Alfie has found his forever home! This 3.9-pound long-haired Chihuahua was found in the middle of the street in 90-degree heat, exhausted, dehydrated, and hungry. With rest, food, and love he blossomed into the sweet, loyal companion he was always meant to be. He is now living his best life with his forever family.

Dara — found on a busy street thirsty and thin — has blossomed into the strong, unique girl her name promised. She is housebroken, loving, and now living her happily ever after.
