Looking for a playful boy to have a (pickle)ball with? Meet Pickle! This friendly boy loves to investigate everything around him by sniffing and exploring."Pickle is very sweet and will come to check in by coming up and asking you for pets," said a former foster. "He likes to be around his people and will show his affection with gentle licks to your face." Pickle likes to stroll around the neighborhood if you're in need of a walking companion! He's great hiking on a trail, too. Pickle's very food-motivated, and he'll do just about anything for a bite of cheese. To exercise his strong sniffer, Pickle would love a home full of enrichment toys to keep him busy. Ready to meet this explorer? Swing on by and he'll give you a sniff!

INTERESTED IN FOSTERING?

This pup is currently located at our Town Lake Animal Center (1156 W. Cesar Chavez, but use 1200 Reserve Road for mapping purposes). We'd love to show them off to you! To learn more about them, head in any day between 12:00PM - 6:00PM. We are open 7 days a week! Go to Building B and ask to speak with a Matchmaker about fostering this pup. You will sit down and discuss all we know about them and, if it's a good fit, get to meet them then! Please budget for a wait time unless you arrive right at opening as we cannot dictate walk-in traffic (wait times tend to be highest in the evenings and on weekends). If this pup ends up not being the best fit, we have so many other pups in need that we can suggest for your household on the spot!

Come meet your new best friend
