Micha is a 4-year-old wire-haired terrier mix with an incredible story of resilience. He was found as a puppy in a box on the side of a Houston freeway alongside his sister, who sadly didn’t survive. Since then, Micha has overcome so much and grown into a strong, loving, and energetic dog who’s ready for his forever home.
Micha isn’t just any dog—he’s a true working dog at heart. He thrives on activity, purpose, and adventure. Once we understood his needs, he absolutely blossomed. He loves the outdoors and is happiest when he’s moving—whether that’s hiking trails, exploring nature, or swimming at the river. He even learned to kayak and is a confident, skilled swimmer!
One of Micha’s favorite things in the world is… balls. He loves them so much that he started sneaking oranges off the table to add to his “ball collection”—his quirky personality will definitely keep you smiling. Micha has come so far and deserves a person of his own—someone who will give him the active, loving life he’s been waiting for. If you’re looking for a loyal companion who will adventure with you by day and snuggle with you by night, Micha might just be your perfect match.
Ideal Home
An active, experienced dog owner who understands high-energy, working breeds. Micha would do best as the only pet in the home and cannot live with cats. He needs a home where he can receive daily exercise, structure, and plenty of attention. Micha is athletic and loves to jump—he can clear up to 5 feet when going after a ball! Because of this, he may need a little guidance navigating tight indoor spaces or obstacles like vacuums or mops.
Ongoing Health
Micha is a healthy boy.
Training & Support
Micha is potty trained and crate trained. He knows commands such as sit, stay, and recall, and can even walk between your legs. He is great on leash and not typically dog-reactive, though he prefers to be the only pet. He is excellent in the car and will happily go anywhere with you. After a good run, he’s all about cuddles and kisses!
