Meet the fabulous Schmidt, a charming 9-year-old Terrier/Retriever mix, weighing in at 61 pounds of pure love! 🌟 This soft-hearted canine currently resides in beautiful South Texas, and let me tell you, he's got a personality that will melt your heart! Now, Schmidt might not be a sprightly puppy, but boy, does he have a zest for life that rivals anyone! Oh, Schmidt is a well-behaved gentleman. He refrains from being a chew-machine in the home, is housebroken, and walks like a pro on a leash. 🦮 But let’s keep it real—crates aren’t Schmidt’s cup of tea. 🙅‍♂️ He prefers the luxuries of sunbathing outdoors or perhaps chasing after a ball. But more than anything, Schmidt loves to be surrounded by the people who adore him. Cuddles? Yes, please! Naps? Absolutely! ☀️ However, a little heads up: Schmidt can be a tad shy with newcomers. Proper introductions are key! He’s like that wise old sage who just needs to warm up a bit before sharing his heart. Once he's comfortable, he transforms into a snugly buddy who's ready to shower you with affection. He gets along great with other dogs, including lively puppies, proving that a loving home is better than any street life he may have experienced! 🐾 In his foster family, Schmidt has learned commands like sit, stay, and down, and they say he’s an eager learner! He’s even respectful around cats—though a gentle introduction would be a good idea. Schmidt is ready to step into the next chapter of his life, and he hopes to find a forever home that will cherish his calm and fun-loving spirit. ☺️ This lovable guy has plenty of affection left to give, so if you’re looking for a mellow companion who can also bring some delightful fun into your life, Schmidt is your man! Don’t let his years fool you; he’s got plenty of life left and love to share!
