About Briareos

Meet Briareos! This handsome boy is just over a year old and weighs under 65 lbs. He was found fending for himself on a remote property in East Texas for over a month. His brave spirit and friendly personality caught the attention of kind-hearted humans, leading to a much brighter future for him. Briareos has adapted well to his foster home and excels in housetraining, eagerly heading outside when nature calls. He loves to exercise—whether chasing squirrels in the yard, playing with his foster sibling, or going for runs with his foster dad. After a good workout, he’s perfectly happy to relax indoors. To thrive, he needs a home that can keep up with his moderately-high energy. Dog friendly and crate trained, Briareos is ready for a family that will take him on exciting adventures. If you think you might be the one to provide that, fill out an application on the Dallas Street Dog Advocates website. Every animal deserves a happy ending. This one starts with you.
