Nemo

My story

Nemo is a 60-pound, 2-year-old pointer mix with a heart full of love and a touch of mischief. Not so long ago, in a street far far away, Nemo was living on a tiny patch of grass outside a Houston store. He was a shy but playful goofball—he would race to the loading dock, snatch an unattended furniture blanket, and dash back to his grassy spot outside the fence. The store managers took him in, and just like that, he graduated from “street dog” to “office foster dog!” Now, Nemo is thriving in foster care. He’s a smart boy who knows “sit,” “leave it,” “touch,” and “shake” (he promises he’s working on “stay”!). He has plenty of puppy energy and enjoys playing with other young, active dogs, though not all pups appreciate his enthusiasm. He loves chasing footballs but has a submissive nature—he's happy to let other dogs take the toys. Nemo is a lover, not a fighter. Nemo is not yet housetrained, but he’s eager to please and very trainable with consistency and patience. He has been treated for whipworms, is heartworm-negative and on preventative, fully vaccinated, neutered, and microchipped. He adores car rides and, despite his energy, is a total couch potato at heart. He’s perfectly happy napping while you work from home, as long as he gets some playtime and love. Nemo is a sweet, mischievous boy who just wants a best friend to play with and snuggle. Could that be you?
