About Schmidt

Meet Schmidt, a 10-year-old, 68 lb Terrier/Retriever mix, currently residing in Corpus Christi, TX. Schmidt is a well-mannered dog who's house trained and walks nicely on a leash. Unlike many dogs, he prefers chilling at home over being crated. Schmidt loves soaking up the sun outdoors or engaging in a game of fetch, but his true joy comes from being around people, enjoying cuddles, and napping. He's a little cautious with newcomers, but give him some time to warm up, and you'll see his affectionate side emerge. Living with a few foster dogs, he gets along well with them and enjoys their company. While Schmidt is respectful towards cats, introductions should be slow, as he has not lived with them. His temperament is mellow and calm, making him a great companion. Even though he’s a senior, Schmidt still has plenty of love to offer. Apply now to bring this gentle soul into your home!
