Brooks's Story

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.<br/>Brooks is a playful, sweet-hearted pup who will always make you smile! He loves to entertain himself (and you!) by tossing his toys in the air and catching them. He’s a one-dog comedy show. When he’s not clowning around, he’s a total cuddlebug who loves curling up in your lap for snuggles and sleeping through the night (preferably in bed with his person).<br/><br/>Brooks is doing well with housetraining. He’s had just one accident and keeps his kennel clean. He weighs about 25 pounds and is great on a leash, enjoying walks and the company of other dogs. He recently met a neighbor’s similar-sized female dog and, after a proper introduction, play-bowed and had a great time!<br/><br/>He has done well in the kennel and has not shown reactivity when being let out. He was initially reactive when in his kennel.<br/><br/>Because Brooks is young, energetic, and still learning boundaries, he would do best in a home with no kids. He can be mouthy and sometimes treats hands like toys, so he’ll need continued guidance and consistency. Brooks can also be protective of his food and high-value items like a Kong, so care should be taken during mealtimes and when giving chews or toys. When taking treats, though, he’s been gentle.<br/><br/>With time, patience, and positive reinforcement, Brooks will continue to grow into the confident, loving companion he’s meant to be. Originally from Texas, this charming little guy is ready to find his forever family!<br/><br/>Brooks is from Texas.

An adoption application is the best way to show your interest in an animal and is not a binding contract.<br/><br/>To learn more about Ruff Start’s adoption process and the care our foster animals receive, please visit our How to Adopt page.<br/><br/>*Rescue puppies are notorious for losing their birth certificates before entering our rescue.
