Hello, partner, Texas here. I'm around 6 years old and weigh about 80 pounds. I'm just an ol' cowboy who found himself alone on the streets, down on his luck. Lucky for me some ladies convinced me to go with them, and things have been looking up since then. I am a sweet guy who's learning to trust again. It's clear I wasn't always treated well; if someone reaches too quickly for me, I duck my head like they might hit me. I can be a bit nervous around new males, but treats will quickly bring me around. I love the ladies, and the kids, and have even met a kitty that I'm friendly with as well. I have lots of dog friends, too, but prefer the ladies to the boys. Did I mention I'm crate and house trained? I'm the best good boy this side of the Mississippi! I will need a fenced in yard in my forever home because I like to wander, and I surely love to run when I play. I also have what foster mom says is selective recall, but I like to call it a busy nose and penchant for adventure. I am pretty strong on the leash, so someone with some muscles to rein me in is needed. I might look tough and serious but join me for a game of tug or keep-away and you'll see that I'm really just a playful guy. Hopefully you've got a spot in your home and heart for me, because I am ready to find my perfect family!
All dogs available for adoption are in foster homes. Please do not visit the location as it is a privately run boarding, training, and grooming facility. Meet and greets are scheduled by appointment only for approved adopters.
