Garrett-All smiles - Miniature Schnauzer and Border Terrier Dog for Adoption in Houston, Texas

Meet Garrett

Look at that smile! Garrett is one of those little dogs who just seems happy to be here.

He's an 8-month-old Border Terrier/Miniature Schnauzer mix who weighs just 9.1 pounds. He may have a little growing left to do, but not much—we expect him to be right around 10 pounds fully grown. He will also be neutered soon.

Garrett and his siblings had a rough start. Their family was deported and the puppies were left behind, with a neighbor doing what they could to look after them. We don’t know anything about Mom or Dad, so Garrett's story before coming to rescue has a few blank pages. What we do know is the little dog in front of us now.

He's sweet, quiet and affectionate, with no aggression. He loves his stuffies, enjoys getting outside to run around and get the zoomies out, and then settles down nicely when he comes back inside. He's a snuggler, too, and very happy just being close to her people.

Garrett is working on house training, does well with potty pads and is proving to be a smart little boy who catches on quickly.

Mostly, Garrett just needs what every dog deserves—a family that isn’t going anywhere.

He's had enough uncertainty for one little lifetime. Now he needs someone who will look at that ridiculous happy face every day and say, “You’re home.”

Garrett will soon be neutered, microchipped & vaccinated and would benefit from being adopted by a dog-loving person who understands he has so much to offer but will need a little time to adjust and settle in with his new family.

Adoption fee is $425.
