About Galveston

Galveston has the kind of face you can’t ignore. He’s had it rough—ended up on the urgent list at the shelter because he was simply terrified. What he wanted most was someone who’d give him a chance to connect. Now that he’s found a little security, you see his gentle side come out. Galveston’s happiest with other dogs and fits right into the pack, but he’s shy around people at first. Once you’re in his circle, though, he’ll win you over completely. He needs a family that understands his shy nature and will be patient as he comes into his own. If you know your way around sensitive dogs, he’ll become an irreplaceable member of the family. As a Cancer, Galveston tends to be sensitive and loyal to those he trusts. Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and lets get started.
