My story

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

Dusty was found in the Rio Grande Valley with an untreated bite wounds on a rear leg. He was taken to a vet for immediate care then started the long transport to DRNT. It took three transporters to get Dusty to our vet where the wounds were cleaned and assessed. It was discovered that he had suffered a broken leg which had started healing on its own. Although at first surgery was considered, the DVM who treated him stated "it was better to leave it as is, surgery could actually make it worse. It has been a slow healing process for Dusty. Thus he has one swollen hock that will stay that way. He has been in a foster home with a number of other large dogs. He gets along with both male and female. He is a rough player and continues to seek loving from his fosters, Loves leaning on you and likes company. Because of his previous injury, he will not make a good running buddy but playing in the yard,yup he loves it.

More about this rescue

Helping Dobermans Find New Homes Since 1994

For 20+ years, Doberman Rescue of North Texas has been placing purebred unwanted or abandoned Doberman Pinschers in loving homes. Most of the Dobermans we rescue come from shelters in the Dallas/Fort Worth Metroplex. Each dog is checked by a vet, given all shots, tested for heartworms, spayed or neutered, treated for any illnesses or medical problems that are found, and micro-chipped. Without exception, all dogs are spayed or neutered. The dogs come to live at Doberhof, our Doberman-only private shelter in Grand Prairie. Doberhof accommodates up to 22 dogs in 11 air-conditioned and heated runs with comfortable beds and classical music. We have outdoor play yards where they exercise, sunbathe, chase squirrels and rabbits, and do other important doggy activities. We have limited additional capacity for dogs in sick bay and foster homes. When a suitable adopter makes the right choice, each dog is adopted to what we hope is a forever home. Puppies thru mature are normally available.
