About Pong Lonestar

Pong Lonestar is a happy, playful, and slightly sassy 2-year-old who weighs around 32 lbs. He’s a well-mannered pup already house-trained and crate-trained, making life easy for any adopter. Pong is still building his confidence and will need some continued training, but he’s treat-motivated, knows "sit" and “paw,” and loves to show off for a snack or toy. He's formed solid bonds with his foster family—including their other dogs—and enjoys being the resident work-from-home sidekick, sometimes racing through the house or yard with his favorite canine sibling. Pong takes a gentle approach to meeting new people and needs someone who will give him a bit of patience and encouragement. Once he settles, he’s all in for food, toys, and hanging out in his crate with a good treat. He’s neutered, current on vaccinations, and microchipped. Pong gets along with dogs and children and is ready to bring joy to any home looking for a spunky new member. Adoption fee details available upon inquiry. Every animal deserves a happy ending.
