Meet Slim, everyone! This incredibly handsome fella has truly shown the world what it means to be a fighter. 💪 Found with his siblings as little strays outside of Houston just as a harsh winter freeze loomed, our dedicated rescue team sprang into action to save them. After a challenging start, and heart-wrenching battles for some of his littermates, Slim and his sister Sadie emerged, victorious and vibrant, ready to take on their next adventure: finding their perfect forever family! 🌟 Now, let’s dive into Slim’s delightful character! While his tough beginning has made him a tad shy when meeting new faces, don’t you dare let that fool you! This resilient boy is bursting with love just waiting to be unleashed. Once he senses that you’re a friend and a safe haven, watch out! His adorable little tail starts wagging like crazy, and he transforms into a cuddly companion that will melt your heart! ❤️ He’s on the lookout for a patient and loving family, one that can help his sweet personality blossom beautifully. At approximately 4 months old and tipping the scales at a charming 20 lbs, Slim is a quick learner who’s eager to please! 🚀 He’s been diligently working on his house manners and is mastering both kennel and potty training at lightning speed. Oh, and let’s not forget he’s a rescue mix, with momma being a medium-sized Border Collie mix—maybe he’ll even channel some of that intelligence into herding your heart! 🐾 Just like any playful pup, Slim needs a family that’s all in for his growth and happiness! He’ll flourish with ongoing training and socialization to become the best version of himself.
