My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

This little guy was taken to a high-kill facility after having suffered trauma to his hips and back legs. He was barely two months old and already homeless, injured, and in an animal control facility!! No situation for a precious little guy like Harris, so Baytown Humane pulled him from the euthanasia list.

As it turned out, no surgery was needed! Pain meds and restricted activity was the prescribed method of healing. So, NOW, little Harris as fully recovered from his injuries (with no evidence of it ever having happened) and he has been vaccinated, neutered, and microchipped.

His personality is absolutely irresistible. Harris is a young dog with an old soul... He is playful with his roomies, but an absolute cuddle bug with his humans. He likes to sleep right under your chin and at about 8 pounds, he's just the right size for that. His Foster Father says that Harris is noticeably intelligent, good with the cats, and learns routines quickly. At feeding time, when all the others are excitedly jumping around and making noise, little Harris can be found sitting quietly at the place where his bowl is always placed. He patiently watches the food being prepared and the bowls put down, but never carries on like the other guys do.

If you believe that Harris would be a good fit in your home, please apply to adopt him today! He has many good years ahead to devote to his loving family!!
