Tex is black with white on his chest and feet. He appears to be a lab mix and has soft medium length fur.

Tex is an adventurer who loves companionship. He eagerly explores new areas and follows you wherever you go. He walks great on a leash and is not bothered by lots of activity including bikers, strollers, other dogs, etc. He is very active and loves to be outside just sniffing the flowers and rolling in the grass. When he's ready for snuggling, he loves to rest his chin in the palm of your hand and stare at you with his loving eyes until he fades off to sleep.

Tex is already making great strides in his potty training. He even occasionally goes to the door on his own when he needs a bathroom break. He likes napping and sleeping in his crate without any problems and usually sleeps through the night from about 10:30-6:30 or 7 each morning.

IAR subsidizes post-adoption professional training with Jane Marshall (www.cheerydogs.com) to encourage a life-long and successful bond between the dog and the adopter. Group classes for puppies and adult dogs are provided at a substantial discount to IAR adopters.
