I'm getting Tex back tonight. Madraver's grandparents found him to be too big for their home. This will be the 2nd time he has come back home because he was just too big.
He's not really big at all. He's a medium-sized dog - black lab mix, but very small for a black lab. And I have tons of pics. I would say he's 35-40 lbs. This time around, I'm taking height measurements. So once again, I'm checking the txta community to see if anyone is looking for a dog or know someone who is. He's a freaking awesome dog!
2 years old - neutered - house broken - plays & affectionate - loves to swim
Jayson made up a new flyer with more pics today. So I'll post that when I get home and probably hit up craigslist AGAIN. :( |

| Thought you were getting rid of him last time because you didn't have a job? Don't you have one now? Why get rid of him? |

Tex has needed a new home ever since I got him. I rescued him from the streets when he was a very sick puppy. I tried a few times back then, and never found him the right home because everyone said he would get too big. He grew up and just joined the family. He became adjusted to apt life, but just was too hyper. I would take him to my folks home in Lufkin and he would run around in their back yard for HOURS. My mom kept telling me every time that he needed a home with a back yard. I just couldn't let him go. But I would ask around a couple times every month if anyone was looking for a dog.
This Spring came around and Tex rediscovered his joy of chasing squirrels. I would let him off the leash and he would run around crazy, jumping up the tree trunks. I'd bring him back in after that, but he'd still want to go back outside. He sat in front of the window and stared out ALL DAY LONG. And he continues to do this. Just staring out the window all day, everyday. I bring him outside, but just not as much as he wants. He deserves a yard that I can't give.
Not only am I moving into another apartment that will just depress him, but they only allow 2 pets max. I'm getting apt with my bf and he has 2 cats. We are compromising on 1 dog and 1 cat. So I started seriously looking for a home for him 2 months ago.

now we are in our new place with a cat and he doesn't like cats. So now everyone in the house is stressed. lol And if we get caught with 3 animals right now, we are gonna get in big trouble and have to pay big $ fines. Hopefully I can find him a new place soon or I will eventually be down to my last option - shelter. :( |

Shut up Dirk. You can't come back from vacation for the last 3 weeks (or 25 years, actually) and start making dumbass comments. |
