About Turk

Turk is an adorable dog who loves kids and is eager to be someone's best friend. At about 7.5 years old, he has plenty of love to share and is ready for a forever home. With a passion for cozy cuddles, belly rubs, and the comfort of his people, Turk thrives in a family environment. He’s not just a couch potato; he enjoys walks, games of fetch, and even the occasional zoomies! House-trained and crate-trained, Turk behaves well indoors and is great on car rides. He loves meeting new people and is especially fond of his human companions. While Turk has many great qualities, he would do best as the only pet in his home. He can be nervous around big dogs and has a high prey drive that makes him unsuitable for homes with small dogs or cats. A bit of patience will help him settle into a new environment. Turk just needs someone to see his potential and appreciate the wonderful companion he is. If you think Turk could fit into your family, he’s currently in Cedar Park, TX, but transport is available!
