Story
Vaquero is a 5-year-old black mouth curr mix that weighs 46 lbs.
He was found in October 2025, in some fields in a small town called Edinburg that is located along the Texas/Mexico border.
When we got him, he had severe mange and was just in horrible shape. He had almost no hair, was so scared and was skin and bones. How someone could let a dog get like the shape Vaquero was in, is beyond us!
He was SOO scared and looked like he was on deaths door. And now?
Vaquero is a whole new dog.
He has done a complete 180! This once shy boy that was very scared of humans is now always happy to see people and interact with anyone he comes across. He loves getting his pets and getting loved on.
There are no long-term effects to what this boy went through, so don’t worry!
He loves other dogs and is currently being fostered in a sanctuary along the Texas/Mexico border. This sanctuary is only a temporary place to house animals while we find them their forever homes. So small or big dogs, he gets along wonderfully with!
Vaquero would do great in a home with older, gentle children as this boy, while he loves to play, he more love to relax and just hang out. He is very much a Netflix and chill type of dog.
TV? Yes, please.
Treats? Give him more.
Nap? Say no more, he is already signed up and, in the bed, waiting.
Vaquero has met kitties and does fine with them!
He LOVES car rides and staring out the window as you’re driving.
He is house trained.
Please consider giving this boy the chance he has never had; a FOREVER home!
This doggy is fixed (spayed/neutered), heart worm negative, current on age-appropriate vaccinations, current on flea/tick and heart worm prevention, microchipped, current on dewormer, and will receive a clean bill of health from a licensed veterinarian prior to transport.
