About Army

Army is a 70-pound Shepherd mix with an estimated birthday of August 23, 2017. He was once adopted from the SPCA of East Texas as a puppy but recently returned due to unfortunate circumstances. Army prefers to be the only pet in the household, as he thrives best in an environment without cats, other dogs, or young children. This affectionate dog forms strong bonds with those he trusts and is incredibly sweet with his people. A kennel-trained, housebroken pup, Army walks well on a leash and is already neutered and microchipped, with vaccinations up to date. He would flourish with someone who can dedicate time and love to him. While a home with a fenced yard would be perfect, Army can also adapt to apartment living if he gets daily walks and regular exercise. Ready to meet Army? Apply today!
