About Hunter

Meet Hunter! This 2.5-month-old Chihuahua/Catahoula mix is overflowing with sweetness and love waiting to be shared. Hunter and his siblings were rescued from a high-kill shelter, just moments away from being euthanized. With a little care and love, Hunter has blossomed beautifully from his rough start. Initially shy, he takes his time to warm up but once he does, you’ll see a wonderful ball of affection. He doesn't need to be the one in the spotlight; he simply needs a patient family to help him come out of his shell. Hunter is ready for a lifetime filled with belly rubs and the warmth of a loving home. Currently fostered in Brownsville, TX, Hunter can find a home anywhere as out-of-state adopters are welcome! We provide bi-weekly transports to various locations across the country. Give this sweet boy a chance, and he'll return the favor with a lifetime of love.
