Rex

Rex is a handsome shepherd mix, likely around six years old, who was found wandering the streets of Houston. He was found lying in the heat, perhaps waiting for his owners, but it's more likely he was abandoned. Despite this, he still remembered the people who left him and jumped into a car with strangers, hoping for a better life. Rex is a grown dog who misses his past, even though his owners were not good to him. He's confused and longs for the people who left him behind.

Rex has a strong personality and can be dominant, but he does not seek conflict. He sometimes quietly leans in for pets, but he will warn you with a growl if he feels uncomfortable or doesn't want to be overly familiar. He responds to kindness and reaches for it, but he is grieving the loss of the people he thought he knew. Finding Rex a family may not be easy, and it's uncertain if he will ever be able to trust someone new. He is a strong-willed shepherd who needs an experienced person who understands his character.
