Peg Leg Pete - German Shepherd Dog and Australian Shepherd Dog for Adoption in Liverpool, Texas

Meet Pegleg Pete – Calm, Kind, and Unstoppable on Three Legs - Transport Available Nationwide

Hi friend, I’m Pegleg Pete! You might notice I’m missing a leg, but trust me, you’ll be too busy noticing my sweet personality to think much about it.

I’m a young German Shepherd and Cattle Dog mix, and I’ve been through more than most pups my age. After I was hit by a car, my leg was badly hurt and never healed the way it should have. My rescuers made the decision to amputate so I could live comfortably, and I’m so glad they did. I bounced back quickly, and today I get around like it’s no big deal.

There was a time when my future didn’t look bright, and I was facing euthanasia. What changed everything was my gentle, easygoing nature. That same calm spirit is something my future family will get to enjoy every day. I’m especially good with kids and keep things relaxed and steady around them. I also get along with other dogs, and every person I meet is a new friend to me.

Out on walks, I’m a pleasure to have on the other end of the leash. I’m leash trained and walk nicely, and I’m kennel trained too. I love to walk, run, and play, and after all that activity, I’m happiest just hanging out with my people.

All I’m missing now is a family who wants me as much as I want them.
