About GarrettAll smiles

Garrett is a delightful 8-month-old Miniature Schnauzer/Border Terrier mix who's all smiles and affection. Weighing in at just 9.1 pounds, he’s expected to reach about 10 pounds as he matures. Having come from a rough start, with his family deported and left behind with neighbors, he’s now ready for a loving home where stability is a given. This little guy is sweet, quiet, and incredibly loving, showing no signs of aggression. He adores his stuffed toys and enjoys running around outside to get his zoomies out, then settles down nicely indoors for some cozy snuggles. Garrett is also working on house training and is learning quickly, doing well with potty pads. Garrett will soon be neutered, microchipped, and fully vaccinated. He’ll thrive best in a dog-loving home that will provide him the time and patience needed to adjust to new surroundings. He deserves to look up into a loving face every day and hear, “You’re home.” Shall that be yours? Garrett is currently being fostered in Houston, TX but can be transported to your area.
