Shepherd and Mixed Breed Dogs Available for Adoption in Marion, Texas

Inez and her five siblings were born to their mother, Gloria, on March 25th in a shelter near our rescue. At just 3 days old, they came into our care, where they’ve spent the last 8+ weeks growing, thriving and preparing for their forever homes.

Inez has always marched to the beat of her own drum. For much of her early life, she was one of the smallest in her litter and learned independence quickly. Although she’s slowly catching up in size, she has never backed down from a wrestling match with one of her bigger siblings.

Inez is confident, playful, joyful and endlessly curious. She loves toys, sticks, tetherball, treats and any opportunity for adventure. Here at Good Catch, she’s settled into a great routine, starting her mornings bright and early with her siblings, followed by a full day of playtime, naps and puppy antics before bedtime around 9 PM.

We expect Inez to grow to around 50–60 pounds. You'll find her brother Otis' DNA results on our website www.goodcatchdogrescue.org . She has a thick, beautiful coat and will likely do very well in cooler climates. At nearly 9 weeks old, her personality is still developing, but we can already picture her becoming an incredible companion and future hiking partner once she’s fully grown.

Inez is up to date on her vaccinations, on flea, tick and heartworm prevention, microchipped and has been on a deworming schedule since she was 2 weeks old. She and her siblings currently enjoy Purina Pro Plan puppy kibble and never turn down a good puppy snack!

We are based in Texas but adopt to multiple states. Our goal is always to find the very best match for each pup, and we work with trusted transport partners to safely deliver them to their forever homes.

Puppies in our care who are 6 months or older are spayed or neutered through Good Catch; for younger puppies, this responsibility falls to the adopter.

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 shepherd dog breed encompasses a versatile group known for their intelligence, loyalty, and strong work ethic. With a heritage deeply rooted in herding and protecting livestock, shepherds excel at various tasks ranging from obedience and agility competitions to search and rescue missions. Their protective nature makes them excellent family pets, offering unwavering devotion and a natural instinct to watch over and care for their loved ones. In addition to their remarkable abilities, shepherds are often characterized by their distinctive appearance, including a sturdy build, alert expression, and a signature double coat that provides insulation and protection in various climates.
