Pet of the Week

March 10, 2026

Our pick is:

Ozzy

Meet Ozzy, a 1-year-old German Shepherd Dog mix who is currently auditioning for the role of "Best Boy" — and he’s already passed the first round with flying colors.

Ozzy is the perfect blend of obedient and energetic. He already knows how to sit for treats, though he’d probably do a backflip for them if you asked nicely enough. He’s looking for a family with a backyard where he can actually stretch those legs, because a dog with this much zest for life wasn't meant for apartment living. The best part? He’s great with kids, making him the ultimate playmate for a family that’s ready to keep him busy.

If you have a fence, some tennis balls and a need for a loyal companion, Ozzy is your guy. His adoption fee is waived and includes shots, microchipping, heartworm testing and neuter.

The shelter is currently at capacity for dogs. If you are looking to adopt, please make us your first stop. Check out all of our adoptable animals at burlesontx.com/adopt.

The Burleson Animal Shelter is located at 775 SE John Jones Drive, Burleson, TX. For more information, call 817-426-9283.

This surgery can be done by the veterinarian of your choice, and the expense is the owner's responsibility. Written verification of this surgical procedure must be returned to the animal shelter.
