Say hello to Max, a one year old big puppy at heart. This big goofball loves playing fetch with a tennis ball, and loves being chased by you. He walks well on a leash, especially when you're practicing leash training, and our Animal Care Associates have great suggestions to help you practice at home! He'd make a wonderful jogging companion for all you early birds out there. This smart boy already knows sit, paw and is ready to learn more tricks. He's made a couple of furry friends here at the HSEP, but sometimes he can get a little overstimulated, so a meet and greet will be required with any dogs you have at home to ensure compatibility.

Samberg, boxer mix

Samberg is a lovable male boxer mix being kept at Humane Society of El Paso.

He's mastered his house-training etiquette. He is vaccinated and neutered.

Samberg is one handsome dog. He's got a stub for a tail, but what he lacks in tail, he makes up for by wagging his whole body when he's happy. What will make Samberg really happy is having a place to call home, a place where he can rest his head, chew on Nylabones, play chase with his favorite humans and where he can catch treats mid-air that you toss at him. He already knows sit and is potty trained.

Bella, Plott hound mix

Bella is a female Plott hound mix staying at Humane Society of El Paso. She's already house-trained. Bella is spayed, and she has all her shots.

Bella is as energetic as she is beautiful, and she'll need an active home to keep her happy. She is housetrained, knows sit and walks well on a leash when you use leash corrections (our Animal Care Associates will be happy to show you how to do that). She loves playtime with other dogs as long as they like to play a little round. She can also be quite vocal and loud when she's having a good time. Bella loves the great outdoors, and can often be seen lounging by the kiddie pools.

Shotzi, terrier mix

Shotzi is a sweet female terrier mix staying at Animal Rescue League of El Paso. Shotzi gets along well with other dogs. Her vaccinations are up to date, and she is spayed. She is already house-trained.
