In the shelter’s words

Colt is a sweet little puppy who is ready to become the newest member of your family! He is well-socialized and gets along wonderfully with children of all ages as well as dogs of all sizes. Colt is a friendly, eager-to-please boy who loves attention and is always the first one to come running for treats or scratches. He’s playful, goofy, and loves to fetch and play with toys. Colt also enjoys cuddling up on your lap when it’s time to relax. He rides well in the car and is crate trained, making him a great fit for a family that wants a well-rounded, easy-going pup. Colt is still a puppy, so he is still learning potty training, but he is smart and will pick it up quickly with a little patience and consistency. He has already overcome a skin condition and is now healthy and ready for his forever home. If you’re looking for a loving, adaptable puppy who will fit into your home from day one, Colt is your guy! Colt would be a wonderful match for almost any family. He’s friendly, social, and ready to love — the perfect addition for someone looking for a happy, playful puppy! Colt is from Texas.
