About Red

Meet Red, a 3-year-old Cattle Dog mix weighing about 50 pounds. After losing his beloved owner, Red was rescued by a neighbor who cares for animals, and he has thrived ever since. Always ready for a good time, Red enjoys play sessions with other dogs, exploring his surroundings, or just having fun outdoors. This playful pup is also a cuddle bug, happily soaking in all the affection you can offer. Red is crate and potty trained, quick to let you know when he needs to go out with a little whine. He has adjusted to indoor life remarkably well, often greeting people by leaning in close—his charming way of asking for love. He gets along wonderfully with other dogs, enjoying playtime and goofing off with friends. He knows basic commands like sit and lay down, and although he’s still working on his leash training, his eagerness to learn makes him a great student. While he's never lived with kids, he’s friendly and welcoming to neighborhood children playing nearby. Red's calm nature is evident, as he patiently observes passersby. He would thrive in an active home that continues to engage him in learning, playing, and family life. Red is currently in Houston, TX, but can be transported to most states for an additional fee of $300. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
