Zinnia

Zinnia is an adoptable female American Bulldog looking for a home at BARC Animal Shelter in Houston, Texas. She is fully grown and medium in size. She is listed on the shelter's euthanasia list, listed due to lack of space, and that date has now passed. Shelters often move these dates, so Zinnia may still be waiting. The shelter can confirm.

Located At: BARC Animal Shelter & Adoptions Description: My name is Zinnia. I am a female, black and brown American Bulldog mix. Age: The shelter staff think I am about 3 years old. More Info: I have been at the shelter since Sep 28, 2026. I am in kennel SOUTHB25. ID #A2098210 3-year-old female American Bulldog mix | Black/Brown Weight: 45.5 lbs Intake date: 9/28/26 Zinnia came to BARC after her owner's grandson was arrested and left multiple dogs in the yard. A senior family member reported being unable to care for them. Both Rocket (ID #2098209) and Taro (ID #2098211) are still at BARC but not on the EU list. They are both 9 months old and likely Zinnia's puppies. ⸻ 🩺 MEDICAL NOTES: Zinnia was noted to be an intact female and was medically normal at intake. She received routine vaccinations, deworming and preventative treatment. Zinnia is HEARTWORM NEGATIVE. ⸻ 🐾 BEHAVIOR NOTES: Zinnia sometimes shows worried body language when initially being leashed. But once outside, staff have repeatedly seen a different Zinnia. She has walked to and from the runs without issue, displaying a soft face, loose or wiggly body and wagging tail. On 10/4, she initially vocalized when someone looked into her kennel, but when staff opened the door and spoke gently to her, she responded with a wiggly body and fast-wagging tail.
