Link

Meet Link, a charming and affectionate six-year-old Terrier mix from San Antonio, TX, whose heart is as big as his love for cuddles! Dressed in a dashing white and brown coat sprinkled with freckles, Link is the perfect balance of playful and easygoing, always ready for a walk or a cozy nap by your side. He’s just the right size for both adventure and snuggle time, making him an ideal companion for someone looking for a loyal and loving canine friend.

Link is a pro at making connections—especially with other dogs! He enjoys their company and coexists peacefully with cats, content to let them do their own thing. His favorite pastimes include leisurely strolls around the neighborhood, gnawing on a good bone, and curling up for a well-earned cuddle session. While he hasn’t had formal obedience training, he already knows how to “sit” and “go potty” on command, proving that he’s a quick learner who thrives with positive reinforcement.

While Link has a gentle soul, he prefers a calm and predictable environment. He isn't comfortable around young children, particularly if they invade his personal space. In the past, he has reacted by biting when overwhelmed in these situations, so he needs a child-free home where he can feel secure and understood. He can be a little timid with new people, but once he warms up, his sweet and devoted nature shines through! His future family will appreciate his medium energy level—always up for an adventure, but also happy to just lounge at home.

Link is house-trained, neutered, microchipped, and up to date on vaccinations. He does have some allergies, so a little extra care in monitoring his diet and environment will help him stay comfortable. A fenced yard would be the perfect setup for him, giving him a safe space to explore and enjoy the fresh air!

Could your home be a peaceful, loving sanctuary for Link? If you’re seeking a devoted companion who will shower you with affection and loyalty, Link is ready to meet you. Reach out today to learn more about this freckled sweetheart!
