GARRETT – I’VE CROSSED THE RAINBOW BRIDGE
My name is Garrett and I am now a Forever Foster Dog. That’s a cool thing, because I know that I will be taken care of the rest of my life. I’m a little older dog, BUT I am still up for adoption and would love to find my forever home. Ihave my very own Petfinder page. Please take a look at it to see more pictures and learn more about me. Also, my foster mom would be more than happy to tell you what a great little guy I am. You can email her at arizonatsu@aol.com Here’s my story.
My name is Garret and I am a 9-10 year old Lhasa Apso/Poodle mix. I am one very lucky little guy since the wonderful folks at Lone Star found me. I had a rough beginning, but you should see me now!!! I was found as a stray and taken to the local animal shelter. I was quite the mess when the volunteers at Lone Star rescued me. I had very long hair that was dirty and matted and I desperately needed a bath. Once I got a bath, a haircut, medical care, and lots of love from my foster family, I came out of my shell. I am now a happy, handsome and healthy boy and I am ready to find my forever home. I know that I am a little older, but that shouldn’t matter as I am a spunky, fun-loving dog who is ready for his forever home. Don’t get me wrong, I LOVE my foster family and my foster siblings very much, but I think I deserve to have a real forever family to call my own.
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. Going on walks is one of my favorite things to do and I do quite well on a leash. 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 am a little shy at first, but once I get to know you I will be your best friend. I’m also learning that being a lap dog is great!! I am housebroken, I love to be around other dogs, and just love to get attention from my foster mom and the family.
I am altered, up-to-date on all my shots and am heartworm negative.
