My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Size & Living Needs:
-Best suited for a house with a fenced-in backyard where he can stretch his legs and explore

Personality:
-Can be shy around new people at first but warms up with time
-Sweet and affectionate once he gets to know you
-Loves back scratches and treats – the quickest way to his heart

Activity Level:
-Enjoys being outside and going on adventures
-Loves his daily walks and does best when walked on a harness

Social Skills:
-Dog-selective, so a meet and greet is required for potential canine siblings
-Can be talkative and loves to “chat” with his people

Ideal Home:
-An active and patient adopter who will give him time to feel comfortable and loved

INTAKE DATE: 2/26/25

More about this shelter

The Colony Animal Services strives to protect andTCAS LOGO-UPDATED nurture The City of The Colony’s lost, homeless, abused, injured, and sick pets. We seek to provide animals the opportunity to be reclaimed, adopted, rehabilitated, or rescued. It is the mission for the Animal Service Officers and volunteers to pursue a positive synergy and to serve the citizens and pets of The Colony.

Animal Services is committed to saving each and every animal that comes into our care. Over the last few years, we have improved our live release rate to 97%. We hold our standards high at keeping this percentage, and in doing so, we ask our rescue partners and citizens to help us pursue finding our animals forever homes.

Every year, we get over a hundred injured and sick animals that need our help. In order for us to help them, we use our donated medical fund to give them the proper care and treatment they need. The only way for us to provide this needed medical care is through our generous financial donors. Every penny donated is sent to our medical fund. Please help us continue this much needed medical care for our animals by donating. Even if you cannot donate, it is a huge help to share posts on social media.
