My story

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

Meet Mario, a gentle, old soul with a heart as big as his paws, and a little extra around the middle! This lovable guy might look serious in his photos, but don`t let that fool you, Mario is a sweetheart through and through. With a calm demeanor, he is the perfect companion for someone looking for a loyal friend to share their life with. Mario is currently overweight, but he is committed to getting his summer body (for next year) ready to go with the help of his new adopter. He is looking for a family that can provide him with the right balance of exercise and a nutritious diet to help him slim down and feel his best. Mario is well-mannered, gentle on leash, and has a soft spot for back scratches. Come meet Mario today!

Additional adoption info

We encourage everyone interested in adopting a new pet to come visit the San Marcos Regional Animal Shelter to view the wonderful selection of cats, dogs and small animals we have available for adoption. When you see an animal you are interested in, come in as soon as possible as we are first come, first serve and are unable to place HOLDS on pets over the phone.

Speak to an Adoption Counselor at our Adoption Center regarding your interest to adopt and they will advise you of the Hold and Adoption process. All pets adopted from our facility are microchipped, spayed or neutered and vaccinated for Rabies prior to being released to the adopter. This is required by Texas State Law for any animal adopted from an animal shelter or rescue group. We do allow out of area adoptions as long as the selected pet is old enough to receive these services prior to being released to the adopter.
