Boxer and Mastiff Dogs Available for Adoption in Houston, Texas

Eyes that will break your heart. Meet Lucious, formerly Shuppo.

Lucious is a senior boy we pulled from Harris County, and the second we walked by his kennel he stopped us all. There was a sadness in his eyes you could truly feel. He cowered in the corner, yet still wagged his tail at us. He wanted love so badly even after everything he had been through.

We noticed a note on his kennel card that made us ask questions. What we learned broke our hearts. After his owner passed away, Lucious was reportedly beaten by officers responding to the home. Why this happened, we will never understand, but what we do know is that Lucious never deserved any of it.

His body tells a hard story. He is skinny, missing fur, and has a large scar around his neck from a heavy chain. But despite it all, Lucious is still trying to trust people again. He looks at you with the sweetest eyes and softly wags his tail, hoping someone will show him kindness.
Lucious is going to need a patient foster willing to move slow and let him learn what love and safety feel like again. He does well with other dogs and would absolutely benefit from a calm, loving home with another pup.

If you’re interested in fostering this handsome senior boy, please let us know. We would love to give Lucious the second chance he has always deserved. Visit www.scoutshonor.org
