Curious Boxer Mix-this guy ran out of time



I don't have a lot of info. on this guy either, but I will update the blog as soon as I do. This male could use a little manners training. At the moment, he isn't too friendly with other dogs, so he would need to be the only dog in the household. He wants to make sure he gets all the love and attention from all of the family members :) He is not neutered and the shelter is unsure of his age. For more info. on this cutie, contact the City of Boerne Animal Control at 830-249-2456 or contact Dino at darellano@ci.boerne.tx.us

Beautiful Catahoula Leopard Dog-Owner picked up



Look at those eyes. He can't wait to go home with a cool family. This male Catahoula Leopard Dog is very sweet. The individual taking the picture had a hard time getting the shot because the dog wanted to be right there with him, so needless to say, the dog is very people friendly. This beautiful guy is not neutered and the shelter is unsure of his age. Go by the shelter and take him out in the yard.

Reasons to adopt a senior dog

Taken from the sanctuary for senior dogs website
http://www.sanctuaryforseniordogs.org/index.htm

Senior dogs love to sleep and cuddle the day away. They enjoy a brisk daily walk, but the best part of
the day is the nap. They love for you to join them.
Senior dogs have a tremendous amount of love to give. When you rescue a senior dog, you have a best friend for life.
Senior dogs reward your care with an unwavering devotion. Nothing matches the love of a senior dog for his rescuer.
Senior dogs have learned many of life's lessons. They know, for example, that shoes are for walking and bones are for chewing.



Senior dogs know that great outdoors is for eliminating and the house is for relaxing. Your carpet will last longer with a senior dog.
Senior dogs can learn new tricks and be valuable family and community members. They make excellent therapy dogs.
Senior dogs often fit into your household with ease. They find the softest, warmest spot in the house and claim it for their own, but they will share with you, too.
Senior dogs make excellent companions for everyone, especially senior people.
Senior dogs are often the first to be killed in area shelters. Passed over for cute and cuddly puppies, they often do not have a chance and must go to make space for more puppies.
Adopting a senior dog saves a life!
