Squid - Doberman Pinscher and German Shepherd Dog Dog for Adoption in Houston, Texas

Meet Squid!
Some dogs just have a way of stealing your heart, and Squid is definitely one of them!
Squid was rescued in the 11th hour, just in time to escape euthanasia. After spending the last few months in foster care, this adorable boy is showing everyone just how much love he has to give.
He’s goofy, playful, and absolutely thrives on attention. Toys are a favorite, and if there’s water around, even better! Squid would love an active family who enjoys including their four-legged companion in life’s adventures.
He’s also a true Velcro dog. Once he loves you, he wants to be right by your side.
Squid can be a bit of a Houdini when first settling into a new environment, so secure fencing and extra care with doors and gates are important until he understands that home is where the fun is. He’s also wonderful with the attention of children, but older, respectful kids who understand giving him his space would be the best fit.
Squid has so much love, laughter, and personality packed into one adorable package. He’s had his second chance at life. Now he’s just waiting for someone to make him part of their family.
Could that someone be you?
