My story

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

Hey there, potential fur-ever family! I’m Tex, the black-and-tan dynamo you’ve been waiting for. Let’s cut to the chase—I’m like a German Shepherd mix with a PhD in tail-wagging and a minor in treat negotiation. Here’s my pitch:

Name: Tex. Age: 2 years young (which means I’ve got the energy of a thousand tennis balls) Sex: Male (but I identify as a “Good Boy”) Weight: A solid 55 pounds (I’ve been hitting the gym—mostly chasing squirrels). Spayed/Neutered: Yep, I’m all snipped and ready to mingle. Housebroken? Check. Leash-trained? Double check. Crate? Eh, I prefer the couch, but I am good sitting in my crate if I have to. Good with Children: Oh, you betcha! I’m like a big, fluffy teddy bear who moonlights as a babysitter. Good with Other Dogs: Yep, I’m the life of the doggy party. I’ve got a PhD in tail-wagging and a minor in treat negotiation. Good with Cats: Well, let’s just say I have a “complicated” relationship with those mysterious feline creatures. They’re like tiny, judgmental ninjas.

Now, let’s get to the fun stuff:

🚀 High Energy: I’ve got more bounce than a kangaroo on a trampoline. If you’re into hiking, jogging, or impromptu dance-offs, we’re a match made in doggy heaven. 🧠 So Smart: I’ve aced obedience school, and I’m currently working on my thesis: “Advanced Sock Theft and Its Impact on Human Sanity.” Spoiler alert: It’s significant. 😄 Happy, Puppy! Life is a tail-wagging adventure, and I’m the lead actor. My hobbies include chasing my own tail, barking at the wind, and photobombing family selfies. 👋 Very Friendly: I’ve never met a stranger I didn’t want to smother with sloppy kisses. Humans, dogs, mail carriers—I love 'em all. Let’s be besties! 👶 Loves Children: Kids are my jam. I’ll play fetch, listen to their secrets, and even share my chew toys (as long as they promise to return them).

So, if you’re looking for a four-legged comedian, a cuddle buddy, and a partner in crime (mostly involving stealing socks), look no further. Swipe right on me, and let’s create some pawsitive memories together! 🐶❤️

Disclaimer: Tex is not responsible for any sudden urges to adopt multiple dogs, start a doggy Instagram account, or spontaneously break into the “Macarena.” Side effects may include laughter, unconditional love, and a perpetually wagging tail. 😉
