About Honey

Meet Honey, the sweetest girl in Texas! Honey earns her name because of her affectionate nature. Rescued from the San Angelo shelter just in time, she knows she was given a second chance and is ready to love her forever human. This German Shepherd mix weighs about 50 lbs and is currently working on gaining a little more weight. She’s both potty trained and crate trained, making her ready to settle into a loving home. Honey is great with small dogs and kids, especially when supervised. While her interactions with cats are unknown, her playful and submissive demeanor makes her an easy companion. Honey brings joy to everyone around her. She loves to greet her humans with enthusiastic jumps, so she'll need a family that can invest time in training her. An eager learner, she thrives on social experiences and car rides. Be aware, though, that she has a quirky habit of chasing headlights at night—perhaps a remnant from her past. Her ideal home would provide her a job to keep her engaged. Regular activities like playing with a Chuck-It and taking walks are essential to keep her happy. Honey has exceptional scenting abilities, and her foster mom is working with her on this skill. This smart, loyal dog is ready to be your best friend. Want to meet your new favorite girl?
