My story

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

Meet Binx (also known as Tex!) 🐾

Binx is the kind of dog who makes himself right at home and quickly becomes part of the family. After spending five months in a foster home, he’s shown just how steady, loving, and well-mannered he truly is.

Binx is friendly and happy to meet new people. He may get a little excited at first and give an enthusiastic hello, but he settles down quickly and listens well. His manners have come a long way, and it’s clear he’s had training and knows how to be a good house dog. He’s crate trained, potty trained, and respectful in the home with no destructive behaviors.

This guy loves staying active. Fetch with a tennis ball is a favorite pastime, and he also enjoys running, walking, and playing with other dogs. When playtime is over, he’s content to relax and chew on a good bone. He rides great in the car and especially enjoys being your co-pilot in the front seat.

Binx does well with kids, new people, and other dogs, making him a wonderful fit for a family looking for a social, well-rounded companion. He’s the kind of dog who listens, adapts, and brings a calm confidence wherever he goes.

If you’re looking for a dog who already knows the ropes and is ready to be your loyal sidekick, Binx might just be your perfect match. 💛
