Are you looking to rescue a nice dog that is out of the puppy stage? Then STOP SCROLLING! Meet Pearl! She is a very sweet middle aged (5-7 ish years) lab/shepherd type mix who is 52 pounds and is just waiting for a forever family to notice her.
We don’t know her story before she was picked up as a stray in Houston with heartworms, but it is evident that she was well socialized and has lived in a home before. She was clearly a mama and is mellow, with a special kind of wisdom about her. Pearl had excellent behavior notes in the shelter— non-reactive to other dogs, quiet and calm, keeping her kennel clean, going potty outside, walking nicely on leash, and being friendly with all the staff/volunteers. We are so glad we chose her! Pearl is so excited for her new lease on a better life. She’s a diamond in the rough and her forever family will be lucky to have found her. She’s the low-maintenance type: a couple meals a day, a comfy bed, and occasional walks/strolls. Pearl is a healthy girl who is now spayed and kicking her heartworms to the curb, so she is ready for adoption and has much more life left to live!
