Story

Maggie may have spent time on her own, but sheâ&#194&#128&#194&#153s off to a great start getting to know all her new friends. Sheâ&#194&#128&#194&#153s met both big dogs and little dogs, and even when her curiosity gets the best of her, she takes a cue from her new friends. Cats will keep her amused, even if they are uninterested in her. She knows how to walk on her leash, sleep in her crate, and take care of business outside. Sheâ&#194&#128&#194&#153s played well with young children, but she can benefit from the loving guidance of adults to help her become more confident. Sheâ&#194&#128&#194&#153ll learn from a family who wants to help her become her best self. In her eyes, youâ&#194&#128&#194&#153re everything! Maggie has plenty of energy and will enjoy getting out for a run in addition to her walks. She loves toys, catching a ball, and playing tug. For a family with lots of love to offer to her, sheâ&#194&#128&#194&#153ll steal your heart, and youâ&#194&#128&#194&#153ll love her anyway!

Story

Meet Ellie, your loyal, ball-obsessed best friend ðÂÂ¾ Ellie is an 8-year-old Aussie mix with a big personality and an even bigger heart. She recently returned to DPA through our Dogs Matter program after her owner made the difficult decision to help her find the right long-term home. Ellie is incredibly loyal and loves being near her person. SheâÂÂs a âÂÂshadow dogâÂÂ who will happily follow you around and soak up attention. Her favorite thing in the world is fetch, and with 30âÂÂ㦨 minutes of play each day, sheâÂÂs perfectly content to relax and hang out. She gets along well with other dogs but prefers to keep her toys to herself and would rather play with her human. Ellie would do best in a quieter home without young kids or a lot of foot traffic. She is crate and potty trained and does well with structure. She can be a bit vocal and mischievous if left out alone, so a home that can provide routine and patience will help her thrive. If youâÂÂre looking for a devoted, playful companion who will stick by your side, Ellie is ready to meet you ðÂÂÂ All Dallas Pets Alive adoptable pets are spayed or neutered, microchipped, and up to date on vaccines upon adoption.

Mack is the kind of dog who makes life feel easy. With his calm, steady presence and friendly nature, he fits into just about any environment. HeâÂÂs great with dogs, cats, and kids, taking everything in stride with a patient and easygoing attitude.

He doesnâÂÂt demand constant attention, but youâÂÂll always find him close by, quietly keeping you company in his own laid-back way.

Bowie III (New Digs)

Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Meet the perennially goofy and Just Happy to Be IncludedÂ®, Bowie the Border Collie. He is a 5-year old, 90lb Border Collie (as the name implies), with a big goofy smile and a sunny disposition. Bowie was one of my mother's furbabies, and she passed unexpectedly this year, leaving my partner and I scrambling to find a home for him and his dog-brother Scout. We are unfortunately unable to foster them indefinitely due to our own existing pet situation, and we need to find them a good home as soon as possible. Bowie is a laid back, very zen, sometimes a little derpy, pup who loves to take walks and chase squirrels, but is equally comfortable just lounging around all day. Bowie is great with kids, he lived with my Niece his whole life, and is very gentle and loving with her. He's great at chasing balls, just not great at returning them. He gets along great with other dogs, and has lived with cats before, though not recently. Bowie, as I mentioned before, is just happy to be included, whether that is playing with other pups, walks, sitting on the porch drinking coffee (not him, me) or whatever else is going on. He is calm under pressure, has no storm/thunder anxiety, and no destructive behaviors (digging, chewing, clawing). Bowie absolutely adores belly rubs and will flop over at your feet and let you rub his belly for hours and just fall asleep. Hands will definitely get tired before Bowie does. An ideal home for Bowie would be one with other dog(s) to interact with and keep him company and lead his little pack of one. Bowie IS currently on medication for arthritis and hyperthyroidism, so he does have medical needs that have to be considered, but we are hoping as we get his weight down (my mother was unable to exercise him and was not diligent in portion control the last year or so) that these conditions should be ameliorated or resolved. Bowie is leash and house trained. My mother spent some time crate training him but fell out of practice as her health declined and he hasn't needed one for a while. He should take to it quickly though if crate training is needed in your home, and knows the basics of Sit, Stay, Come. This sweet and loving pup is deserving of the perfect furever home. Could it be with you?

Story

Met Scooter! My husband and I are elementary school teachers and this sweet boy (now affectionately called Scooter) had been hanging around the school playground since the beginning of the year. When Animal Control came and said he would be euthanized that night, we couldnâ&#194&#128&#194&#153t let that happen. We scooped him up and brought him to our in laws home in Frisco. He is good with other dogs, cats, and kids! Scooter has been nothing short of wonderful. Heâ&#194&#128&#194&#153s gentle, loving, and great with kids. Heâ&#194&#128&#194&#153s fully potty trained, walks beautifully on a leash, and has quickly adjusted to being indoors. Heâ&#194&#128&#194&#153s vaccinated, neutered and has the sweetest, most even temperament, he especially loves rolling over for belly rubs and being close to people. This boy is the best and deserves the best home! * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * If you have a specific question about Scooter, then please email newdigs@dallaspetsalive.org.

Archie II (New Digs)

Australian Shepherd

Details

Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Meet Archie! Archie is listed as an Australian Shepherd, but he has the personality of a Husky. He weighs about 67 pounds and was born on January 8, 2022. Archie is a sweet, gentle dog with a calm energy level. He currently lives in a low-activity household, which may have influenced his laid-back nature, though with a more active lifestyle, he may become more energetic. He doesnâ&#194&#128&#194&#153t seem to know how to play in the traditional sense, but every so often, heâ&#194&#128&#194&#153ll pull all his stuffed toys (â&#194&#128&#194&#156his babiesâ&#194&#128&#194&#157) from the basket and scatter them around the room. His favorite place to nap is in a leather chair, where he spends much of his day. He takes a daily vitamin and enjoys having an egg with his breakfast. It's believed that heâ&#194&#128&#194&#153s been passed around a bitâ&#194&#128&#194&#148his last owner had him for only four months. Heâ&#194&#128&#194&#153s strikingly beautiful and incredibly sweet. However, due to his size, heâ&#194&#128&#194&#153s become difficult for his current owner to manage. Archie appears to do well with other dogs, though he hasn't been to dog parks. He has a clear preference for menâ&#194&#128&#194&#148he often chooses the company of a male stranger over familiar faces. He enjoys daily walks and uses a doggie door without issue. While he isnâ&#194&#128&#194&#153t overly cuddly, he has warmed up and will occasionally jump into a lap to show affection. In general, he can seem a bit indifferent to familiar people. He previously spent time with another dog for a couple of weeks; they played well initially, but as things got rougher, they had to be separated for safety. He did enjoy the companionship, and with proper supervision or training, he may benefit from having a playmate. One of Archieâ&#194&#128&#194&#153s favorite pastimes is â&#194&#128&#194&#156huntingâ&#194&#128&#194&#157 squirrels in the backyard. Though heâ&#194&#128&#194&#153s never caught one, heâ&#194&#128&#194&#153ll crouch and stalk them with serious focusâ&#194&#128&#194&#148itâ&#194&#128&#194&#153s quite entertaining to watch. He once cornered a cat and ended up with a scratch on his nose, but that hasnâ&#194&#128&#194&#153t stopped him from continuing to chase after them. He is microchipped with a lifetime membership through 24PetWatch, and currently wears a GPS tracker on his collar, which helps provide peace of mind in case he were to get outâ&#194&#128&#194&#148especially since heâ&#194&#128&#194&#153s still getting familiar with the neighborhood. Archie is fully house-trained and has never had an accident indoors. He was crate trained but no longer uses a crate. He gets one treat per dayâ&#194&#128&#194&#148a dental chew. This rehoming decision comes with a heavy heart. Archieâ&#194&#128&#194&#153s current owner is older, increasingly unsteady on their feet, and no longer able to care for a large dog. With their adult son recently relocated for work, support at home is limited. Archie would thrive in a home with someone experienced with larger breeds or Husky-like temperaments, and who can give him the time, space, and affection he deserves. Could that be you? * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * If you have a specific question about Archie II, then please email newdigs@dallaspetsalive.org.
