About Flash

Hi, I'm Flash, a male dog with a lot of love to give! You may not be able to recognize my breed as it's truly one of a kind, a Heinz 57 as my foster mom likes to tell me. I am a perfect balance of playful, smart and strong. Don't let that fool you though, above all else, nothing makes me happier than being with my people. I love snuggling up and giving you all the love in the form of sweet kisses. I have an endless supply! Not a snuggler? No problem, I will be happy just being by your side. I currently am being fostered with 7 other puppy siblings, and we all get to play together! I'd do well with most dogs, but may chase a lil kitty if given the opportunity. I am fully vaccinated, UTD on all shots, neutered and am ready to find my forever family. I am currently living in Fort Worth, TX, but I can be adopted out anywhere within the USA! I know my forever family is out there - could it be you? Apply to welcome me home at bigflooffoundation.org!
