Meet Texas “Tex” ! Tex is a 4-year-old Shih Tzu–Maltese mix with soft, silky curls, a snowy white coat sprinkled with warm brown spots, and a heart as big as his name. At 28 pounds, he’s the perfect size for couch cuddles, cozy evenings, and being your constant little shadow. Tex’s world changed suddenly when his beloved dad passed away, and his mom had to move into assisted care where pets aren’t allowed. With no family able to take him in, this sweet boy was lovingly surrendered to Legacy Humane Society in hopes of finding a forever home where he can once again feel safe, cherished, and part of a family. Despite everything he’s been through, Tex’s gentle spirit shines. He’s house-trained, crate-trained, and happiest when he’s close to his people—whether that’s snuggling during a movie marathon or simply soaking up attention. He gets along well with other dogs and does okay with cats, too. He’d do best in a home with older kids who understand his need for a calm, loving environment. Tex is neutered, up to date on all vaccines, heartworm negative, and microchipped. He’s currently healing from a mild skin infection—likely brought on by stress—but he’s already improving with treatment and just needs a little TLC to be back to his best. More than anything, Tex is looking for a forever family—one that will love him as deeply as he loves in return. He doesn’t just want a home... he wants to belong. Could this sweet, soulful boy be the missing piece of your family? If you would like to meet Tex, please complete an application on our website at www.legacyhumanesociety.org, and his foster mom will be in touch. We do not have a facility to house the dogs in our program. They are all kept in foster homes until they are adopted. Therefore, if you are interested in adopting from LHS, please complete an online application at http://legacyhumanesociety.org/adoptfoster/adoption-application/ and we will contact you asap about the status of your application.
