My story

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

Meet Bert! He is a 4yr old male mixed breed that weighs est 60lbs. He is a very handsome boy and my dog scanner app thinks Carolina Dog, Black Mouth Cur and maybe some Lab/Retriever. No matter, he is a very handsome boy. He came into the Mesquite Animal Shelter on 1/10 as a stray. Since being at the shelter he has been nervous and unsure of why he is at the shelter, and what the future holds. We let him know that he can decompress at his own pace and let him learn to trust again. He is missing some hair on his back, but with time it will heal. He hasn’t shown any reaction to the other dogs. He walks well on a leash and enjoyed stretching his legs in the shelter yard, and also maybe potty trained. He takes treats gently, and has appreciated light pets. He is a work in progress, so as we continue to spend more time with him, there will be a follow up evaluation completed with this wonderful boy. You can see in his eyes he wants to love, trust, and we will be there to help him find the best home for this special boy.
