Terrier and Mixed Breed Dogs Available for Adoption
GUY
Terrier, Mixed Breed
🇺🇸
Carrollton, Texas
January 24th
male, small, adult
DESCRIPTION
Guy is a smart, active boy who loves getting outside, going on walks, and enjoying care rides. However, he is sensitive to fast movements, and he can become overwhelmed when energy levels get high. We’re looking for a behavior foster placement to see how he settles into a home environment and help us learn more about what support he needs to succeed.
Reason for Foster: Behavior; Shelter decompression
Foster Time Frame: 2 weeks
Foster Care Plan: Guy does best when things stay calm, predictable, and steady. He’s kennel trained, potty trained, and knows cues like stay and sit. He may be wary of some new people and tends to feel more comfortable with women, so slow introductions and patience go a long way with him. In playgroups, Guy’s shown some interest in other dogs but prefers exploring and rolling around over rowdy play. He would thrive in a quiet foster home, ideally with no young children, where he can decompress and build trust at his own pace. Our Behavior Team will be available for consult at the time of pick up so that you feel confident in caring for this special kiddo.
ABOUT: MIXED BREED DOG BREED
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.

With their loyalty and playful demeanor, terriers are beloved for their endless enthusiasm and affectionate nature.
