My story

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

Meet Ghost!

Ghost is a 5-year-old American Pit Bull Terrier who has lived a very small, quiet life until now. For his first five years, he knew only a backyard and just three people—no dogs, no busy environments, no constant change. Coming to a shelter full of barking dogs and unfamiliar faces has been overwhelming, and while he’s made some progress, it’s clear this is not where Ghost feels safe.

Ghost is looking for a patient, calm, adult-only home with few visitors and a peaceful environment, both inside and out. With time, consistency, and kindness, Ghost has the potential to finally experience the comfort and security he’s never truly had. Sometimes the quietest dogs are the ones who need love the most.

Additional adoption info

We encourage everyone interested in adopting a new pet to come visit the San Marcos Regional Animal Shelter to view the wonderful selection of cats, dogs and small animals we have available for adoption. When you see an animal you are interested in, come in as soon as possible as we are first come, first serve and are unable to place HOLDS on pets over the phone.

Speak to an Adoption Counselor at our Adoption Center regarding your interest to adopt and they will advise you of the Hold and Adoption process. All pets adopted from our facility are microchipped, spayed or neutered and vaccinated for Rabies prior to being released to the adopter. This is required by Texas State Law for any animal adopted from an animal shelter or rescue group. We do allow out of area adoptions as long as the selected pet is old enough to receive these services prior to being released to the adopter.
