Brazos - Brazos was dumped in a family’s front yard in the Waco area. The owners of the home turned him over to us and asked that we find him a much better home than he had had. When he came in to us he was filthy, he had so much dust and mats on him he looked like he could be a blue merle, after a bath we found that he is actually a sable merle. He had sticks, twigs and leaves imbedded in his coat and some of his toenails were over 2 inches long. But even with all of this, Brazos had a beautiful sheltie spirit. He stood patiently for over an hour while we washed, brushed, trimmed and dried him. Brazos is 6 to 8 years old, neutered, and is up to date on all vaccinations, he has also had a recent dental. But sadly, the same people that dumped him in a strangers yard also did not provide heartworm preventive, Brazos is heartworm positive and will have to go thru heartworm treatment. Brazos is about 16 inches tall and weighs 59 pounds. He is currently on a low calorie diet and is exercising to lose the weight Brazos will not be available until January 2018. Brazos does walk beautifully on a leash and has excellent house manners.
Adopted January 2018.
