My story

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

Hello future forever, for real this time, family. Get your tissue ready because I have a super sad story to tell you about my last owner.  Six years ago I was rescued from a shelter by a man who is a long distance truck driver .  He took me on the road with him for 6 years and we had a great time driving the highways and byways in his big rig but then he got a new job. That’s when things got ugly…his new company said “no dogs on the road”…so my road warrior owner surrendered me back to a shelter and I cried a lot. Can you imagine going from one extreme to another overnight???? Luckily the ladies from Paws in Prison could imagine because the trainers in the dog dorm have felt the same way. Now that they rescued me from shelter #2, I am getting all gussied up in the obedience skills department and will soon know all basic commands. I will also be crate trained, house trained, leash trained and have passed all of my vet examinations and have a microchip so you never have to worry about losing meJ!!!! The best part about adopting me is that I am past all that crazy puppy nonsense as I am a mature 8-10 year old gentleman who love to take rides and I get along with other dogs. Please fill out an adoption application today so we can start our own road trips together.

More about this rescue

We are a prison located in Lockhart TX. We rescue dogs from rural area shelters and take them into the prison for training on basic obedience. They are also house trained and crate trained. Training is done by the women inmate handlers. A professional trainer comes to the prison weekly to teach the inmates how to train the dogs. Dogs live at the prison for 2-3 months, in the cells with the inmates, while they are being trained.

All dogs are up to date on their shots, heartworm negative and on preventative, spayed/neutered, microchipped and trained for basic obedience.
