Tex's Story

Hey, I'm Tex!<br/><br/>I'm a big, beautiful Shepherd mix with a blonde coat, goofy energy, and ears that seem to have a mind of their own. One's doing one thing, the other's doing something completely different. It keeps things...interesting. I'm a happy guy. Like, really happy. I love people, I love attention, I love meeting new friends... and I've never met a stranger I didn't think was awesome. If you walk past me, there's a good chance I'll assume we're best friends now.<br/><br/>I'm still young, so I've got some polishing to do. I can be jumpy when I'm excited, I might get a little mouthy during play, and I'm still figuring out leash manners and how to navigate introductions with other dogs in a way that keeps everyone on the same page. I just get enthusiastic about life and sometimes it spills out faster than my manners can keep up.<br/><br/>But I try hard. I kennel up nicely, I keep my space clean, and I do really well in a fenced yard where I can stretch my legs and show off my zoomies. I'm smart, I'm eager, and I'm always ready to engage with whoever is on the other side of the leash.<br/><br/>Mostly, I'm just a big silly pup looking for someone to grow up with. Someone who doesn't mind a little chaos while I learn, and maybe even laughs at my ear situation while we figure it all out together.<br/><br/><br/>**Neutered, microchipped, heartworm negative, and up-to-date on vaccines & monthly prevention. Weighs about 60 lbs**
