GARRETT
My name is Garrett Mesquite and I am a 5 year old Lhasa Apso/Poodle mix. I was found as a stray and taken to a shelter a number of months ago. I was all matted and looked quite the mess at the time. Then my luck changed and I was rescued by the wonderful folks at Lone Star. My foster folks got me a new haircut, gave me a bath, and most importantly a home to stay until I am adopted. My hair is growing in quite nicely, I am getting more and more confident each day, and if I must say so myself, I’m beginning to look quite the handsome young dog!
I have REALLY long legs and my foster mom calls me My Little Pony because of it. She laughs at me because when I run I’m kind of clumsy and I tend to trip over myself a bit. I get SOOOO excited when I run and play. I particularly like to play fetch. So it’s important that in my new home there is someone who will play with me and hopefully take walks with me. My long legs can go a great distance!! My ideal home would be one with older children to play with me and maybe another doggie playmate.
My foster mom also calls me My Little Pony because when we are on the couch I love to nuzzle her neck just like horses do. I am really a lovebug at heart and love to cuddle and get pets. I’m a little shy at first, but when I get to know you I will love you forever. I’m learning that being a lap dog is great!!
If you think I could be a part of your family, please go to my Petfinder Page and see what my foster mom wrote about me. I would love to find my forever home. I just know you would love me once you get to know me!
I am altered, up-to-date on all my shots and heartworm negative.

I was fortunate enough to be Garrett’s first foster mom and he is such a sweet wonderful little guy. He is shy at first almost like he does not want to bother you, such a little gentleman but he does warm up and he has the cutest personality. I love him very much and know anyone lucky enough to adopt him will have a great companion for years to come.
