Tex is eagerly waiting to find his forever family. After experiencing life on the streets, he has come to appreciate the wonders of indoor living. Tex can't decide if he prefers the couch or the dog bed for his naps, so he keeps testing both. He has also discovered the joy of toys and bones. Although initially shy, this smart boy takes cues from his foster siblings and is quickly gaining confidence. He is a gentle boy who doesn’t need constant activity like most Malinois. He understands when it’s time to lay down quietly while his foster mom works. Tex craves affection and often seeks out his foster parents for pets and kisses. He is quite playful and enjoys running around with the other dogs in his foster home. He has a silly side and enjoys making people laugh. He is also comfortable around cats, although he generally prefers to ignore them. Going for walks is one of his favorite activities, and he would make a fantastic running partner. Tex is eager to please his humans and is quickly learning the commands and household rules. Having another playful dog in his forever home would be a dream come true for him.
Like any of our dogs, this handsome boy would make a great addition to an active home that will provide the love, structure, good leadership, activity and mental stimulation that this breed needs. Because of that, Tex's ideal owner will have prior Belgian Malinois, GSD or other herding breed experience. Even if you exercise and play with your dog daily in your fenced yard, please remember that you MUST still take your dog out on daily walks and outings, in order to provide sufficient stimulation, ward off boredom, and work on leash skills, and manners.
Tex's adoption fee is $350, all of which goes back into offseting our high-cost vetting expenses and rescuing more dogs. We are a 100% volunteer-run rescue group and rely on adoption fees and donations to continue saving lives. Adoption fees include spay/neuter, current on age-appropriate vaccinations, fecal, deworming, flea/tick and heartworm preventative, heartworm tested if old enough (and treated if positive), and microchipped. Please visit http://heartlandgsrescue.rescuegroups.org/info/adoption for more information about our adoption process and requirements, and to apply.

Why are Sponsorships & Donations so important?
HUGS provides dog food, supplies, necessary vet care (emergency, acute, routine), heartworm and flea/tick preventative to the HUGS foster dogs while they look for their forever homes. This can be quite costly and challenging in many ways. Additionally, some of the dogs that we rescue arrive sick or injured and require hospitalization, expensive surgery or long-term medications or other treatment. This places a huge strain on our vet fund, and can affect our ability to help future dogs.
Sadly, without sufficient funding to transport, vet/treat, feed the dogs that we take in, we could not continue saving them. As a volunteer group that runs solely on donations and adoptions fees, we truly need your support.
