About Flacko

Meet Flacko! This handsome 8-month-old German Shepherd Dog mix is a certified good boy weighing around 40lbs. Flacko is a bundle of joy who absolutely loves people and other dogs. He's eager to please and is a quick learner, making him a fantastic companion. He enjoys a good play session with his canine friends and is also happy to snuggle up with his favorite people, showing off his adorable belly for rubs. Flacko is a huge fan of pool time and entertaining himself with his favorite toys. He's house and crate trained and ready to find his forever person to help him navigate the world with confidence.

Ideal Home

Flacko would thrive in a home with an experienced adopter who can help him continue to grow and learn. He enjoys playing with other dogs and has been great with a 10-year-old nephew, but due to his puppy exuberance, he'll need supervision around smaller children. While he loves cats, his enthusiasm might be a bit much for them.

Ongoing Health

Flacko is neutered and up to date on his vaccinations.

Training & Support

Flacko is working on his puppy manners, specifically jumping and leash pulling, so consistent training and supervision will be beneficial. With an experienced adopter, he's sure to continue to blossom.

Application Details:

  • Applications start by contacting us through Wags.
  • Please ensure all decision-makers in your household are on board before applying.
  • We are a volunteer-run rescue and ask that only serious adopters apply.

Transportation

Flacko is currently in a foster home in Houston, TX. He can be transported out of state once an approved adopter is found. Transports occur every few weeks, and he will be on the next available transport after approval.
