Australian Shepherd Dogs Available for Adoption in Houston, Texas

MEET MANNY!

Manny is a handsome, two-year-old Australian Shepherd weighing 32 pounds. This sweet and gorgeous boy originally came to us with a severely broken scapula. Following orthopedic surgery involving two metal plates and several screws to reconstruct his shoulder, he has recovered beautifully and is now "good as new."

While Manny can be a bit timid with new people and other dogs, he warms up quickly. He is currently in a foster home where he is well-behaved, house-trained, and crate-trained. He loves receiving attention from his foster mom and playing with his foster canine siblings.

Manny is a special boy looking for a loving home to make up for his difficult past. If you are interested in adopting this one-of-a-kind pup, please visit www.redcollar.org to submit an application.
