Schnauzer and Mixed Breed Dogs Available for Adoption in Houston, Texas

Meet Cookie Possum - tiny body, huge personality, and endless zoomies included!

Cookie Possum is an 1 and a half year old Schnauzer/mixed breed weighing 15lbs, and she is proof that good things come in small, slightly scruffy packages. She came to us as a stray who was found at a gas station, arriving very skinny and matted, but once she realized she was safe (and that food was involved), her true personality burst out-and wow, is it a fun one.

This girl is VERY energetic and playful. Think zoomies, bouncy hops, toy-tossing, and happy spins just because she's excited to be alive. Cookie Possum loves to play with other dogs, does great with cats, and absolutely adores people. If you're moving, she's involved. If you sit down, she's climbing into your lap. If you open a snack... well, she's already there.

Food is her greatest passion in life (besides love), and she's highly motivated by treats-making her a fun little candidate for training, games, and enrichment. She's curious, spunky, and always ready for her next adventure, whether that's a walk, playtime, or a cuddle break before more playtime.

Despite her rough start, Cookie Possum is nothing but joy, sweetness, and resilience. She's ready for a home that will keep up with her playful energy, shower her with affection, and make sure she never misses another meal again.

If you're looking for a happy, high-energy cuddle bug with a silly name and an even sillier personality, Cookie Possum is ready to steal your heart (and your snacks)

The mixed breed dogs, often referred to as mutts, are a diverse and unique group with a blend of different characteristics from various purebred dog breeds. These dogs come from a mixture of lineages, resulting in a wide range of sizes, coat types, and temperaments. While each mixed breed dog is distinct in its own right, they are known for their resilience, adaptability, and often have fewer health issues compared to purebred dogs due to their genetic diversity. Mixed breed dogs make wonderful companions for families looking for a loyal and one-of-a-kind pet.

The schnauzer is a versatile and intelligent dog breed known for its distinctive beard and eyebrows. They come in three sizes - miniature, standard, and giant - each with their own unique personalities and characteristics. Schnauzers are loyal, playful, and make excellent family pets. They require regular grooming to maintain their wiry coat and love to be included in activities with their human companions. With proper training and socialization, schnauzers can thrive in various roles, from loving companion to skilled working dog.
