Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Theo is a great Big cuddle bear! He would be a special needs dogTheo is a gorgeous Brindle boy with a flash of white on his chest and a black face that just screams to be kissed. Theo is a confident boy who loves to play in the yard with his siblings, or play tug with his siblings. At the end of the day, before we go to bed, he has to have a snuggle with mom on the couch. As adorable as this boy is, he will be happiest with a sedate household that just want an adorable loving guy to snuggle with. He will not be a running companion, nor will he do well with lots of stairs. But Theo loves to go in the car and slow walks around the neighborhood. Theo is anxious to learn and will be an awesome family member. He is best suited to a family with a yard. He has grown up with chiuahuah's and larger dogs and is a very compassionate guy who plays gently with his friend who is special needs. He was a bottle baby and has only known love and affection. Theo has a depth perception problem so doesnt like to do stairs or cross over colors that he isnt familiar with. Like on walkway crossings. Theo had a genetic defect and both of his back knees have had TPLO surgery to correct. His right ankle fluxates, but there is nothing to be done with it. This young man is perfect. He loves to cuddle and lives his treats. Theo has the sweetest purring sound when he is playing with the other dogs. He sounds like a bull horn when he gets nervous. I cant imagine anyone could love this boy more than I do, but he is available for adoption to the right family who can care and love him. Please contact info@aarfhouston.org for more information about this dog. You can apply online at www.aarfhouston.org/forms . Once your application is approved, we will schedule a meet and greet. Thank you for considering a rescue! The adoption fee includes vaccinations, Bordetella, de-worming, rabies, spay/neuter and microchip. There is a an additional $12.99 fee for Home Again for a lifetime registration of the microchip. Puppies cannot be adopted outside of the Houston area until they are spay/neutered after they are 4 months old. It is against the law in the State of Texas for a rescue not to be sterilized so we have to make sure it gets completed and that we have record of it. NOTE: In our bios, we provide information based on our volunteer's experience with a particular dog; such as temperament, training, and ability to get along with others. AARF is a 501(c)3 Non Profit, all breed, no kill organization. Our group is always in need of donations in order to continue to give the needed medical care to our rescues. Adoption fees do not begin to cover all of the medical costs. Any donation , no matter how small is a big help and is greatly appreciated. Please help us to continue to help them. Thank you.
