My story

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

Meet DOUG! He:
• Is a male spaniel mix
• Is 3 years old
• Weighs 40 pounds
• Is good with other dogs
• Appears to be good with cats
• Is good with children
• Is not potty trained
• Walks nicely on a leash
• Is medium to high energy

About:
Doug may not be the sharpest tool in the box, but his endearing nature more than compensates for any lack in intellect. Rather, he is the sweetest chocolate in the box, who exudes love, goofiness and a pure heart. There isn't a hint of malice in Doug; he embraces everyone, especially children, with open paws and a wagging tail. He somewhat struggles with spatial awareness and depth perception, but Doug's antics only serve to further highlight his lovable silliness. He navigates the world with a unique charm, sometimes stumbling - but always with a smile. While his interactions with other dogs might be a tad unconventional, Doug's approach to life simply requires someone with a good sense of humor to appreciate his quirks and revel in his boundless affection.
Doug is currently undergoing treatment for heartworms and expected to make a full recovery. For information on how HLCR will assist with the treatment process, our office can be reached at (830) 693-0569.

Doug is neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, and heartworm negative.

More about this rescue

Highland Lakes Canine Rescue was founded in 1999 as a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization by a group of folks who wanted to rescue homeless dogs from the Central Texas region and care for their health, rehabilitation and then to ultimately find these dogs a forever home uniting them with a newly adopted family. Initially HLCR started out as a foster only organization but over the 17 years has grown into it's own location with a kennel facility, outdoor pens, walking trails and staff and resident caretaker. An active and passionate group of volunteers works tirelessly supporting HLCR and its mission.
