My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Paloma is a 4 year old Cattle Dog/Collie mix, which makes for a beautiful and intelligent young lady who is independent and athletic.

She is house and crate trained and loves to play with her circle of friends who are similar in size or larger. Same for kids; probably older kids would be her preference.

Paloma gets to sleep in her foster mom's bed because she doesn't take over the bed, will share a blankie, and is really grateful to have a bed buddy. All-in-all, she has decent house manners, but will need to learn the house rules in her forever home. And she will.

She enjoys car rides and standing at the highest point of the yard to scout the area for squirrels and cats that need to be informed of the boundary line.

Her ideal home would be with someone who will make her feel special, ideally a one-and-only relationship.

She's fine in a crate but prefers her human most of the time. She'll be a devoted companion to her new people.

She is spayed, up to date on vaccinations and microchipped. If you are interested in learning more about Paloma, please text Liz at 214-616-6128.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

We do our best to match up potential adopters with just the right pet as we want to ensure a lifelong placement for the rescued animal. Our adoption process includes an initial application, with home visit, reference and vet checks. If the match is a good one, we then have an adoption contract that is executed. We have a commitment not only to our adopted dogs, but also to the families that adopt them, and we are always available to help with the transition to a new home. We check in during the first few weeks to answer any questions or help with any issues - or to just give you someone to brag to about your new baby. We can't hear that too much!

More about this rescue

Shelter2Rescue Coalition is an all-volunteer rescue organization dedicated to the safe-rehoming of shelter animals. We started as a rescue facilitation organization, helping rural shelters publicize their at-risk dogs, thereby dramatically reducing the need to euthanize for space. Then, as we worked with more shelters, it became very apparent that if we could just buy the dogs up for euthanasia just a little more time, you could save even more lives. The 72-hour hold limit at most shelters just wasn't enough for most dogs to get out. Therefore, we expanded and built partnerships with boarding facilities, transport organizations and other nationwide rescues in order to be able to provide a temporary safe haven for dogs out of time. We have now expanded Shelter2Rescue Coalition to include our own adoption program. Since June 2007, through facilitation and adoption, Shelter2Rescue Coalition volunteers have saved over 2000 dogs and cats.
