Story
Please note, we are a Texas based rescue that transports our pups once
they are adopted. All of our dogs reside in foster homes, so much is known
about their temperament, training level and personality. We know adopting
a dog sight unseen can be daunting, so we are happy to share additional
videos, photos and even let you Facetime with the pup. We are primarily an
equine rescue, but do assist with a small number of dogs annually. We are
happy to provide references from previous adopters if needed. Thank you
for wanting to adopt!
"You've got a friend in me
You got troubles, I got 'em too
There isn't anything I wouldn't do for you
We stick together, we see it through
You've got a friend in me" 1995, Randy Newman
These lyrics from the hit song, "You've got a Friend in Me" absolutely could have been written about me! You won't find a more loyal and devoted dog in the world! My Foster Mum is my hero, but we live in an apartment with two cats and we all know that I would be happier with my own person/people and a yard.
I am an athletic guy and would LOVE an action/adventure person/family to go hiking and swimming with. Did I mention I LOVE being in the water!! Swimming and splashing about is my favorite pastime.
My hairytage combines the two awesome breeds of German Shepard and Siberian Husky. With genetics from two continents, I am one intelligent and resourceful pup!! From my Russian ancestors (Husky), I inherited hardiness, high energy, and a strong work ethic. My European breeding (GSD) accounts for my courage, loyalty and obedience.
I am a bit stand offish when meeting new people, but once I understand your kind intent towards either me or my Foster Mum, you are in my circle of trust for life!! Then, the party is on! I am ready for a serious game of fetch and Tug of War!! My Tug of War rope is my favorite toy, but I really enjoy tossing around all of the other toys, as well.
I pretty much ignore my meowy roommates and leave them to their cat nip and cat naps; I am a DOG and have important stuff to do!! I stand guard at the window and wait for Foster Mum to get home so we can go walking.
I am good with other medium and large sized dogs, after a proper introduction. My play style is a little rough for small fry doggies.
I know basic people pleasin' behaviors like sit, stay, shake paws, and I wait for my food bowl until I am told it is ok to approach. I am crate trained and never have potty accidents in the house!
At 3 years young, I have reached a powerful, muscular weight of 70 pounds. I would do well in obedience or agility training with a strong and confident trainer. I have a lot of learning to do and need someone who will love me and guide me to lead my best life.
If you are looking for a true friend and companion that is "doggedly" loyal, you've got a friend in me!! I hope that you will fill out the online application and adopt me today!!
"And as the years go by
Our friendship will never die
You're gonna see it's our destiny
You've got a friend in me"
