Here's what the humans have to say about me:
I wasn't the first and I won't be the last amazing & wonderful dog to be at a Texas kill shelter sitting on death row, waiting for euthanasia for no good reason other than nobody wanted me. Why not?... is a very good question. Possibly because San Antonio is overrun with abandoned dogs and homeless strays, and the bigger we are the harder it is to find a family. This was my predicament when out of the blue, a lady walked in and saved my life. She fosters for 4 Little Paws Rescue and although my paws are not little, they took me in, and I couldn't be more grateful to everyone... and not to brag, but there is a lucky family out there who will feel the exact same way when they meet me.
My name is Midnight and I am a 2-year-old male Chocolate Labrador Retriever/German Shorthaired Pointer mix, 40 lbs, heart of gold, medium energy, shy at first, but still make friends with everyone within a day or two. I get along great with other dogs and always get excited about meeting new doggie friends to play with. I love chew toys and lick mats and can easily entertain myself while spending time in a crate. I’m calm and affectionate, love pets and belly rubs, and hanging out with my people. I’m a good boy who listens well and quickly takes direction when I forget my manners and jump up to greet you. I am already housebroken, I rarely bark, I do not dig in the yard, or chew on your things. I love walks and rides in the car which works out great since I’ll be moving to Connecticut to find you. I started out this story with exactly one day left to live, and now I’m living life, happy and grateful and dreaming of being someone's forever dog, proudly sporting a handsome collar with my name and your phone number stamped on it. Hint-hint.
* 4 Little Paws is based in CT. We adopt in many different states along the East Coast. Transport costs are included in the adoption fee. If you are located outside the states we typically adopt to, we have options to get the dog of your dreams to your location.
