Howdy folks, my name is Highland and I am a very chill Boxer/Pug mix about 3 years old, only 27 lbs and I am a sweet, sweet boy. I get along great with everyone, a little shy with new people at first, but I’m great with kids, and make friends easily with other dogs and kitty cats. I was found in Von Ormy Texas, hanging out at a gas station where I was dumped. A few days later a very nice lady picked me up and now I am vaccinated, neutered, microchipped, and ready to find a forever home!
I love the outdoors and sunbathing on a pretty day. I’m not big into playing but will join in with the other foster dogs for about 5 or 10 minutes of fun, but I’m more of a kicked-back sort of dude who would rather observe or follow my foster mom around while she works. I think barking is silly so I don't do it. I’m well-behaved, and housebroken, and taught myself how to use a doggy door by watching the other dogs. I love walks and car rides and chewing on bully sticks. My future looks bright, and I am so looking forward to joining a wonderful family anywhere on the East Coast! Inquire about me today and bring me home!
* 4 Little Paws is based in CT. We adopt in many different states along the East Coast. Transport costs are included in the adoption fee. If you are located outside the states we typically adopt to, we have options to get the dog of your dreams to your location.

Please DO NOT apply unless the entire family / household is on board with adopting one of our dogs. We must receive an application for you to move forward in the process. Thoughtful direct emails are welcome and will be answered. However, an application is still a necessary step. We want to make sure we find our dogs a perfect fit with a family so both the dog and the family are happy. We keep our dogs with fosters once we get them out of shelters for a little bit to learn and understand their personalities. Our relationship with families doesn't stop at adoption! We are always available for any follow up questions and are happy to be a resource as you and your new pet settle into a routine.
