My story

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

Hi there, my name is Baron! I might come across as a little scared of the world at first, but don't let that fool you - once I get to know you, I'm a real sweetheart!

One thing that helps me feel more comfortable is treats and happy talk. If you're patient with me and give me some positive reinforcement, I'll warm up in no time. And once I do, you'll see that I'm a playful and energetic pup who loves to run around the yard and play with toys.

But despite my energy and enthusiasm, I also have a soft side. Once I'm comfortable with you, I turn into an oversized lap dog who loves nothing more than snuggling up with my human companions.

I'm still a young pup, so I have plenty of energy and love to give. I'd do well in a home where I can get lots of exercise and playtime, and where my humans are patient and understanding with me. And while I might need some extra love and attention at first, I promise to repay your kindness with lots of loyalty and affection.

I'm up to date on all my vaccinations and have been neutered, so I'm ready to find my forever home. If you think I might be the dog for you, please come and meet me! I can't wait to find my new family and start our life together.

More about this shelter

The Animal Defense League was established in 1934 by a group of individuals, “for the prevention of cruelty to animals; to promote kind and humane treatment of animals; and to aid and assist the enforcement of laws enacted for the prevention of animal cruelty.”

In 1961, ADL moved to its present location in the easily accessible northeast part of San Antonio. Its campus encompasses more than 12 acres and includes a two-acre pet park. On the property is an Adoption Center with a small retail store, and a separate 5,000 square-foot Clinic which houses our veterinary hospital that provides onsite spay/neuter surgery, surgery for injured and ill animals, and ongoing medical care for all ADL resident animals.
