About Beckett

Beckett is a 14-week-old Australian Shepherd/German Shepherd Dog mix with a goofy, fun-loving personality. Always in the middle of everything, Beckett keeps his foster home entertained with his playful antics and social nature. Pulled from under a vacant storage building in Texas with his littermates at just 4–5 weeks old, Beckett has flourished in foster care. He’s grown up around dogs, cats, and children, and it shows—he’s confident and well-socialized for his age. Beckett is still figuring out crate training, house training, and walking on a leash, so he’ll need ongoing guidance and structure as he grows. His black coat with tan legs and eyebrows makes his expressive face hard to resist. Beckett is already neutered, microchipped, dewormed, fully vaccinated, and cleared by his vet, so he’s all set for adoption. He gets along well with other dogs, cats, and children, and would be a lively addition to a home that can keep up with his energetic spirit. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
