Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.At only around a year old, Argo arrived at MCHS back in November 2022 from our friends at the Rescue Network after he was rescued from a Reservation in South Dakota. He is now about 5 years old and does have a lot of the trademark features of mixed breed dogs from Reservations - "Rezzies", as they are affectionately known in rescue. Like many Rezzies, he could be a mix of cattle dog and German and/or Australian shepherd, just to name a few possible options. He's a large, handsome and very active dog. He has been vet checked and neutered and his fee is $125. Argo has had some basic training and will require a lot of consistent exercise. This is of the utmost importance in order to keep him well balanced and happy. He does pretty well on leash walks and loves car rides. He's an affectionate guy, too, who thinks nothing of climbing into a person's lap if he gets the chance. He's incredibly smart and would be a lot of fun to train! Argo would do best in a home with a large, fenced yard. He's NOT a dog for apartment living. He's looking for an ADULT only, single person home as he tends to bond very closely to his person and becomes quite protective. No cats for him. Argo has been adopted and returned before, so we've had a bit of a challenge finding the correct fit for him and he's become a very loved, long-term shelter resident. Although he will need an adopter who is experienced and prepared for a dog like him, our volunteers have been rooting for Argo and would love for him to finally find the ideal home. NOTE: Adoptions are done via private appointment once an application has been completed and approved. Applications can be submitted at our website, mchs.rescuegroups.org. We are located at 101 22nd St. SE in Austin, right next to the airport. It's exit 180B off of I-90, right off of 218 South. We do require that potential adopters be at least 21 years old and that any resident dogs be up to date on vaccinations, heartworm testing/preventative, and spayed or neutered.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.October 31, 2026, 4:04 pm
