More about Pancake TX

Hi, I’m Pancake — yes, like the breakfast food, but I am in fact a dog. I recently left a shelter in Texas, and now I’m living in a foster home while I look for my forever humans. I’m somewhere between 6–9 years old and I weigh 7 pounds, so I fit nicely on laps, pillows, and in those little gaps between couch cushions. Let me tell you a bit about myself. First, I’m a big fan of the cozy lifestyle. I enjoy sleeping under blankets, on top of blankets, and occasionally inside blankets (it’s a strategy). I will happily accept belly rubs, and I do this very cute soft snoring thing when I’m relaxed. My foster says I’m “a doll,” and I’m choosing to believe that’s a compliment. I like being held, I like gentle pets, and I’m polite with new humans. I’m not a wild child — I’m more of a “let’s take it easy and enjoy the little things” kind of guy. Now, because honesty matters: I am not house-trained yet. I do go to the bathroom indoors. I promise I’m not trying to redecorate — I just haven’t figured out the rules yet. I will need someone who can help me learn, or someone who already knows their way around belly bands, washable floors, or frequent outdoor breaks. Medically speaking, I’ve had two seizures — one at the shelter and one when I first arrived in foster care. I’m now on medication to help manage that. I also have luxating patellas (that means my knees are a little quirky), but they don’t affect my day-to-day fun. Despite all this, I’m truly loving life right now — good food, safe humans, warm naps, and soft blankets. I don’t ask for much other than kindness, patience, and a place where I can keep perfecting my snuggle skills. If you’re looking for a tiny senior dude with big heart energy, I might be your guy. If you’d like to meet me, please go to northstarpets.org, fill out an adoption application, and ask for PANCAKE TX. I’ll be waiting — probably napping, but still waiting.
