My story

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

DMX is a big, friendly Great Dane mix with a playful spirit and a heart full of love. He's cool around other dogs, but can be selective, He's not a fan of being alone though, showing his anxiety when left by himself, especially in a kennel. He's happiest with his humans nearby, whether he's lounging inside or adventuring in the yard. He does have some separation anxiety and prefer someone who works from home or is around the house a lot to be a loyal best friends to!

He's respectful of personal space, not jumping on people, His curiosity gets the best of him outside, where he loves to sniff around every inch of the yard, but he’ll only truly enjoy it if you're out there too. DMX is all about routine, especially when it comes to mealtime—expect reminders at 6:30 on the dot, morning and evening. He thrives on attention and affection, eagerly soaking up every scratch and pet you offer.

DMX’s ideal home would have a big, secure yard for his sniffing adventures and someone who understands his need for companionship and patience with his anxieties. A quiet, adult-only home would be perfect, where he can be the center of attention and not worry about competing for affection. If you're someone who loves the outdoors, enjoys being active, and is looking for a loyal, loving companion to share in your adventures (and your heart), DMX could be your perfect match. He promises lots of love, loyalty, and a few good stories to tell along the way.

More about this rescue

West Side Animal League is a volunteer organization that rescues animals from various Fort Worth area shelters. We strive to accomplish our goal of responsible pet ownership by raising public awareness of the need to spay and neuter pets and holding adoption events, spending quality time socializing the animals and in many cases bringing them into our homes as fosters until they can find their own fur-ever home.

We provide vaccinations and medical care as funds are available. 100% of our expenses are covered by donations and adoption fees. We are only able to accomplish this through the generosity of both time and money from others who also want to make the world a better place for our furry friends. If you would like to find out about opportunities to help, call our League line at 817-565-8222 or go to our meetup site at www.meetup.com/West-Side-Pet-Adoption-Meetup-Group. Thank you for your support as we continue Working to Save Animal Lives!
