Pet of the Week
DFW
Humane Society 
Beau is a neutered Male Shepherd mix about 1 yr. old weighing in at about 45 lbs. He is brown and was found as a stray.
This handsome 1 year old gentleman came to the shelter as a stray. Hard to believe someone let him get away as he's very well behaved, knows some commands, and seems to be housebroken. Beau will make a fantastic addition to any family.
If you can adopt Beau and give him a good home, please contact the DFW Humane Society at 972-253-3333, or check out one of the many other pets that need a home by visiting their web site.
