**Tex will be available for adoption at Rosedale Mills (Pennington, NJ) over the Nov 9-11 weekend.**

Tex and his litter mates all came to SoCo Rescue as owner surrenders but not because their former owner was irresponsible, which is usually the case in our area. Their mom had been a stray that wandered onto the property of a Glenwood resident. Not only did this man give the stray,who he named “Daisy”, love and compassion, but also committed himself to caring for her puppies that would soon arrive after it was discovered that Daisy was also pregnant. This man did provide excellent care and kept Tex and his siblings until they were old enough and space opened for us to take them in. Going a step further, the man opted to keep Daisy and we had her spay through our “Help A Neighbor” program.

Tex is a little bashful when first encountering new people or things. But give this friendly fellow a little time and patience as you’ll see just how wonderful he truly is. He’s accustomed to playing with his siblings and does very well around other dogs of all sizes. He’s also been around cats and seems to enjoy their company as well. He should do very well in just about any home situation but think a calm, low-commotion environment would be best for him.

Tex has received 2/3of his first year “puppy” vaccinations (his final vaccine will be due on Nov.21), de-wormed, received his rabies and bordetella vaccinations and started on his monthly preventatives. He’s also already been neutered as well.

Tex’s mom is a medium-sized Lab mix and we’re not sure who his dad was so we’re really not sure what breed mix he is.
