About Happy

Meet Happy, a delightful 15-pound bundle of joy and possibly a Pug Border Terrier mix. At around two years old, her name truly reflects her spirited nature. Happy radiates positivity and joy, making her the life of any gathering. She plays with a slightly mischievous energy, reminiscent of a tiny bull in a china shop, so she needs a canine companion who enjoys wrestling and romping around just as much as she does. Happy loves people and greets everyone with enthusiasm; she has never met a stranger. Previously found in the Weslaco shelter without a collar or tags, she's now safe and thriving in our care. All this sweet girl wants is a loving family to call her own. Located in Hondo, TX, Happy is ready for a meet and greet with approved applications. If you believe you could give this joyful pup the home she deserves, please review our adoption process and submit an application. Every dog adopted through Tracy's Paws Rescue receives comprehensive veterinary care including testing, vaccinations, and spay/neuter surgery. Let's make Happy's next chapter a happy one!
