About Flacko

Meet Flacko! This handsome 8-month-old German Shepherd Dog mix is a bundle of joy and ready to find his forever family. Weighing around 40lbs, Flacko is a certified good boy who thrives on love and attention. He's a quick learner who just wants to please, making him an eager companion for any adventure.

Ideal Home

Flacko would do best in a home with an experienced adopter who can help him navigate the world with confidence. He enjoys playing with other dogs of various sizes and has been great with a 10-year-old nephew, suggesting he'd enjoy a human sibling. While he loves cats, his enthusiasm might be a bit much for some kitties. He is still working on his puppy manners, like jumping and leash pulling, so he would need to be supervised around smaller children.

Ongoing Health

Flacko is neutered and up-to-date on vaccinations. No ongoing health concerns have been noted.

Training & Support

Flacko is house and crate trained. He is working on his puppy manners, including jumping and pulling on the leash, and would benefit from continued positive reinforcement and consistent training.

Application Details:

  • Applications to adopt Flacko start by contacting us through Wags.
  • Once your initial application is screened, you will be connected for a video chat.
  • Please ensure all decision-makers in your household are on board before applying.
  • We are a volunteer-run rescue and appreciate serious inquiries only.

Transporation

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