Tex

Here's a very common story for dogs in the south. Once upon a time a beautiful and very pregnant dog was found wandering along the side of the road. What's not so common is that instead of leaving her out there on her own, the finder took her in (she was a lucky dog!) and she gave birth to 8 healthy puppies. This story has an even happier ending because the finder is keeping the mom, who they have named Shadow, and she will be spayed. Shadow's puppies are now old enough that they are ready to find homes of their own.

Shadow is a lab mix and can be seen in some of the pictures we've posted. Tex, featured here, is one of her male puppies. The puppies were born on 2/5/26 and based on appearance may be lab (mom) and german shepherd mix. According to his foster mom, Tex loves to have a good time and he's energetic. Tex is receiving his puppy vaccinations, and will be microchipped with a lifetime registration.

Tex is currently in TX, but once adopted, will join our monthly transport to the NJ area.
