My story

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

Meet Archie – A Sweet, Social Boy Ready for His Happy Ending Hi there, I'm Archie! I'm an approximately 5-year-old male German Shepherd mix who was found near Ridge Road by Goodwill on 11/05/2025 with a friend, but sadly no one ever came looking for us. Even so, I've kept my heart open and can't wait to begin the next chapter of my life in a loving, forever home. I may have started out a little unsure, but those days are behind me. Now I love the companionship of people and truly enjoy being close to my humans. Whether it's gentle pets, hanging out by your side, or simply being part of your daily routine, I'm happiest when I'm with you. I seem to get along well with female dogs, and while I haven't yet met kids or cats, I'm open to new adventures with proper, thoughtful introductions. If you already have a dog at home, a meet and greet is encouraged so we can make sure we're a good match. I appear to be both house trained and crate trained, though like any dog adjusting to a new environment, I'll do best with patience, consistency, and a predictable schedule to help me settle in smoothly. My adoption fee is $125, and I come neutered, microchipped, and current on my core annual vaccines. I did test heartworm positive, but my treatment is fully covered thanks to the amazing support of Rockwall PAWS. If you're looking for a loyal, affectionate companion who loves being with his people and is ready to give his whole heart to a family, I might just be your guy. Apply to adopt me at https://rockwalladoptions.com/adoptfoster/adoption-application/ and the Rockwall Adoption Center staff will be in touch with next steps. I can't wait to meet you.

 

All animals, unless otherwise noted in their description, are at 1825 Airport Rd. in Rockwall, TX. Hours of operation are Monday-Friday 9 am to 6 pm and Saturdays 9 am to 5 pm. For questions, please call 972-771-7750 ext. 2 or email info@RockwallAdoptions.com.

IMPORTANT NOTICE: All shelter animals are required by Texas state law to be spayed/neutered. RAC completes this procedure at the age of 12 weeks. If you are adopting a pet under the age of 12 weeks or an animal that has not yet been spayed or neutered, you will be required to return the pet to our facility on the agreed upon date set at the time of adoption. This policy is non-negotiable and violation of this health code is a criminal offense.
