About Mantis

Meet Mantis, a gentle soul who’s come a long way since his difficult start. At about five years old and a healthy 70 pounds, he’s believed to be a Husky mix, sporting a soft medium-length coat in warm white and red tones. Things weren’t always easy—he was rescued in very poor shape, battling mange and malnourishment, but with care and patience, he’s bounced back beautifully. Mantis is affectionate and thrives on being close to his people. While he gets along well with other dogs, he’d also be happy as an only pet, soaking up all your attention. He’s house trained, crate trained, and walks politely on a leash, preferring quiet strolls and hanging out together over high-energy antics. Despite his Husky looks, he’s pretty mellow. His rescue praises his loving, grateful nature and thinks he’d suit almost any home. Mantis is neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped, ready for his next chapter in Tomball, TX. He’s a Virgo—loyal and steady to the core. Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and lets get started.
