About Forrest

Meet Forrest! This stunning Husky mix is about 3-4 years old and weighs around 60 pounds. Ready to leave behind a rough past, Forrest was found on the streets of Houston and narrowly escaped euthanasia at a crowded shelter. Thankfully, he got the chance to step into a brighter future that he truly deserves. Forrest is sweet and gentle, effortlessly stealing hearts with his bright blue eyes and goofy smile. He’s a little shy at first, but with some tasty treats, he warms up quickly, making it easy to earn his trust and continue basic training. He gets along well with other dogs but requires a home without cats. Forrest prefers structured introductions with fellow pups to ensure everyone feels comfortable. This loyal companion is looking for a patient family ready to give him time to adjust and realize he is safe now. Whether going on walks or lounging nearby, he’s eager to be a devoted friend. Currently in Houston, TX, transport is included in his adoption fee, so don’t let distance stop you from finding your new best friend. For Texas residents, local meet-and-greets are possible, too.
