My story

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

Say hello to Benito, a striking 5-year-old Alaskan Husky with the most beautiful, mismatched eyes, one blue, one brown! This well-mannered gentleman is a people-lover through and through. He is happiest when he is by your side, lounging at home or even out and about on an adventure. Based on notes from his previous home, it is likely that Benito suffers from possible separation anxiety, so he will need a family who can be with him often or take him along for the ride. He is eager to please and will thrive with someone willing to work on his training and help him feel secure when he is alone. If you are looking for a loyal companion who will always keep you company, Benito is your boy!

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.
