Story
My knee is healed, my bags are packed, and I’m ready for my next adventure… HOME! I’m Potion (59537774), a 1½-year-old Border Collie mix weighing 54 lbs. I’ve spent the last few months in a loving foster home recovering from knee surgery, and now I’m healthy, happy, and ready to begin the chapter I’ve been waiting for. I’m a very social girl who is house trained AND crate trained, loves playing with dogs my own size, and already knows SIT, DOWN, STAY and WAIT... with even more tricks in the works! I’ve worked hard to get here, and now there’s just one thing left on my recovery plan: find a loving family and become somebody’s best friend for life. If you would like to me, please send an email to foster@collincountytx.gov to schedule our meet and greet!       Check out all the adoptable animals on the shelter's website! https://www.collincountytx.gov/Services/Animal-Services/adoptable-pets All adoptions include spay/neuter, microchip and first round of vaccinations.

Story
🐾💕 Warning: You may fall in love! 💕🐾 Meet Rosie Roo… or Roo, RoRo, Baby Bear, Baby Hippo, or just about anything you want to call me! I answer to them all! 🐶 I'm healthy, spayed, heartworm negative, vaccinated and a 38–42 pound bundle of love with a big personality, an adorable face, and one very important hobby: EATING! 😂 If snacks are involved, count me in! That's how I earned my nickname, Baby Hippo. A girl's gotta eat! I love other dogs, tiny humans (kids are some of my favorite people!), walks, cuddles, couch potato time, and keeping an eye out for squirrels. I'm also perfectly happy sharing my home with cats, even the ones who decide to run around. Here's something important about me: I'm still building my confidence, so having another friendly dog in my forever home is a MUST. Having a canine buddy helps me feel safe and confident as I continue learning about the world. And if my new family includes kids who want a sweet, furry friend to love, even better! ❤️ I'm looking for a family who will be patient with me, help me grow in confidence, include me in family life, and understand that I'll need some guidance as I settle in. Could you be the one I've been waiting for? 🌹 Rosie Roo is ready to find her forever home! 🌹 📍 DFW area 🐾 Must have another dog in the home to help build my confidence.🐾 💕 A family with kids would make my heart extra happy!💕 Apply to adopt at bcrrt.com

Story
This beautiful girl is Lucy. She is 3 years old and everything you expect a Border Collie to be. She is highly intelligent and focused. She has a super sweet temperament and loves people. Playing tug and with her jolly ball are 2 of her favorite things to do. She loves to give kisses and be petted so much that she tries to climb in your lap. Lucy knows sit, down and stay on command. She is crate trained and rides well. She is housetrained except for some occasional submissive wetting when attaching her leash. When she came to us, she was afraid to walk on a leash. She is now doing better with it but still can be a little fearful of it at first. She is UTD on all vaccines, HW negative and on preventative, and has been spayed. Lucy will need a home where she is the only dog and without cats. She has a very strong herd drive and focus so even though she has not been tested around children more than getting pet by them while on walks, small children would probably not be a good fit for her. Lucy will be great for someone who is looking for a dog that is highly driven with lots of energy. She is no couch potato. This girl needs a job. Please apply to adopt at bcrrt.com.

Story
Izzy is a special girl looking for her forever home. She’s full of heart, endless cuddles, fierce loyalty, and pure joy when a tennis ball or her beloved donut toy appears. Izzy may take a little time to warm up, but once you’re hers, you’re hers — her person, her safe place, her whole world. She would thrive in a quiet home with no young children and no other dogs. She’d love an older couple or empty-nest home where she can soak up attention, enjoy calm walks, play a good game of fetch, and then curl up inside with her people. She has a great off-switch and knows when it’s time to relax. She’s 6 years old, 41 lbs, spayed, up to date on vaccines, crate trained (but does well out), walks nicely on leash (strong girl!), rides great in the car, and is located in DFW. Izzy doesn’t need perfect — she just needs hers. If you think that might be you, apply today at BCRRT.COM

Tokyo is truly an amazing dog and such an easy girl to have in the home. She is fully house trained, kennel trained, leash trained, and off-leash trained, and she knows all of her basic commands. She is wonderful for grooming and has excellent manners inside the house, she isn't destructive and is very respectful of her surroundings. She is incredibly smart and, more than anything, just wants to play fetch and relax by you. She has so much love to give, and we're looking for a very special home that will love and cherish her just as much in return. 🤍

Blaze came from the tiny town of Tulia, Texas Where he had been at their impound and shelter a few weeks. He’s so gentle and quiet he was prioritized to be kept alive to wait for the right Rescue group; They don’t do adoptions directly. As soon as I saw him I fell in love with his extremely unique markings and gentle looking face. He rarely barks And he gets along with all of the dogs, both of mine and Foster dogs that have come in and out for a night or two. Blaze is really ready for a forever home with someone, compassionate and patient. He’s just been living indoors for the past month and will need time for a lease training and other group activities. Right now he’d be the ideal Companion for a home with or without another dog and he shows no prey drive as far as cats. Blaze is very gentle, but doesn’t seem like he would be very fun for children. Blaze is housebroken, he does not need a crate, is very affectionate with people he knows and just calm and quiet with new faces. I really hope the right person will find his listing and share his listing because he deserves a full fun and eventually active life Which is not provided at my house our application is on www.dashdog.org Once it’s completed, text me, Sara 214-549-9905 I will read your application and get back to you!  General Info - PLEASE READ! *Our $450 adoption fee is based on the cost of rescuing, transporting and vetting each dog; we do not try to compete on prices with municipal shelters whose funds are paid by the city.

Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Age: 1 year Weight: 40lb Feyre, pronounced FAY-RUH, is named after the brave, strong heroine of the ACOTAR book series. Feyre loves people, loves other dogs and is super playful. Her perfect evening consists of play time (she loves to fetch) or a walk, followed by snuggles on the couch. It's a big plus if belly rubs are included. Feyre's start in life wasn't ideal - at 1 year old she's already had a litter of pups and been dumped at the shelter with them. Luckily they made it into a foster home, she raised her pups, and now she's ready to start her new life! New places still make her a little nervous but she's getting better every day - she just needs a few minutes to feel safe when she encounters new things/places. She most likely wasn't exposed to much and never walked on a leash prior to landing at the shelter. Feyre is super smart and learning new things every day. She can't wait to find a family and would LOVE to have a doggie friend that likes to run and play. Feyre is spayed, vaccinated, and microchipped. Her adoption fee is $275 and you can apply for her here if you're interested in learning more:  Adoption Application - Legacy Humane SocietyWe do not have a facility to house the dogs in our program. They are all kept in foster homes until they are adopted. Therefore, if you are interested in adopting from LHS, please complete an online application at http://legacyhumanesociety.org/adoptfoster/adoption-application/ and we will contact you asap about the status of your application.

Amber and her sister, Margot, were dumped, and luckily, not like so many other dumped dogs that get killed or starve, they were picked up by someone in rescue. They have been together all their lives, and we would love to see them stay together if possible.

The girls sleep and eat in the same kennel and love to cuddle together. Amber has good house manners and is crate trained.

Story
Margot and her sister were picked up as strays. Luckily, someone found them before they starved or were killed. She and her sister, Amber, have been together their entire lives, so we would love to see them adopted together, if possible.Both girls are athletic, but Margot so much that she can jump and climb over the fences at her foster home to go where she pleases. Luckily, she stays on her property and goes into different areas to play with the other dogs or her foster family. Her foster has not worked on trying to keep her contained, but this would be a concern until she could adjust to her new home; she does have excellent recall. We have a portable containment system to send with her for someone willing to work with that training.Margot lives with lots of other dogs and gets along with everyone, including the livestock rescues. She has good house manners, is crate trained, and is working on walking on a leash.She is fully vetted - current with vaccines, spayed, microchipped, and on flea/tick and heartwormprevention.
