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. 🤍

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
Meet Arrow: A Story of Courage, Trust, and Second Chances One year ago, Arrow’s future was uncertain. At just three months old, he and his brother, Arlo, found themselves in one of our local shelters facing euthanasia before they had even had the chance to experience what it meant to be loved. Thankfully, Sunshine Acres Animal Sanctuary, Inc. was able to step in. When Arrow first arrived, he was terrified. He didn’t understand that people could be kind. He kept his distance, avoided touch, and watched the world with fearful eyes. Trust wasn’t something that came naturally—it had to be earned. And earn it, we did. With patience, consistency, and lots of love (and plenty of treats!), Arrow slowly began to realize that people weren’t something to fear. Day by day, he grew more confident. The puppy who once wouldn’t let anyone near him now seeks out affection, leans in for pets, and happily welcomes the people he knows and loves. His transformation has been nothing short of incredible. Arrow and Arlo have become two of the most well-behaved puppies we’ve ever welcomed through our doors. They were housebroken within their first week at the sanctuary and quickly mastered crate training. Their eagerness to learn—and their love of snacks—made training both fun and rewarding. Arrow is incredibly intelligent, just what you’d expect from a Border Collie/Labrador Retriever mix, and he’s always excited to learn something new. Today, Arrow is a sweet, affectionate young dog with a heart that’s finally learned what safety feels like. He loves being close to his people and has blossomed into a loyal companion who simply wants to be loved in return. Before going to his forever home, Arrow will receive his upcoming veterinary care at the end of August and will be fully vetted and ready to begin his next chapter. Arrow has already overcome more in his first year of life than most dogs ever should. We’d love it if he can be adopted with his brother Arlo but it would be okay for them to be adopted separately as well. They’ve get along great, but they aren’t completely bonded. Now all Arlo needs is someone willing to give him what every dog deserves—a family to call his own. If you’re looking for a smart, loving, loyal companion who understands the true meaning of a second chance, Arrow may just be the missing piece of your family. Could you be the happy ending Arrow has been waiting for? To learn more about Arrow or to schedule a meet-and-greet, contact Sunshine Acres Animal Sanctuary, Inc. at 469-952-1192 via text. Every rescue deserves a forever home, and Arrow is more than ready for his.

Story
Meet Arlo – The Quiet Soul Who Learned to Trust ❤️ Some dogs make you fall in love the moment you meet them. Arlo is one of those dogs. Arlo is a one-year-old Border Collie/Labrador Retriever mix who, along with his brother Arrow, was rescued from a local shelter just days before they were scheduled to be euthanized. They were only three months old, scared, unsure of the world, and had never experienced the love every puppy deserves. When Arlo first arrived at Sunshine Acres Animal Sanctuary, Inc. he wanted nothing to do with people. He was terrified, kept his distance, and wouldn’t even allow anyone to touch him. His fear was heartbreaking, but we knew beneath it was a dog who simply needed patience, kindness, and someone willing to believe in him. Little by little, everything changed. Today, Arlo is one of the sweetest, most gentle dogs you’ll ever meet. He has learned that people can be trusted, that gentle hands bring comfort, and that love is something he never has to earn. Watching him transform has been one of the most rewarding journeys we’ve witnessed. He maintains the goofiest expression on his face especially since he has the funniest double chin! Like his brother, Arlo amazed us with how quickly he learned. Within a week he was house-trained and crate-trained. He’s incredibly intelligent, eager to learn, and very food motivated, making continued training a joy. He has wonderful manners and has grown into a calm, well-behaved companion who simply wants to be close to his people. Arlo has an upcoming veterinary appointment at the end of August and will be fully vetted before going to his forever home. Arlo doesn’t need a perfect family—he just needs one that will continue showing him the love and security he has finally discovered. In return, you’ll gain a loyal best friend whose quiet gratitude is felt every single day. His difficult beginning does not define him. It simply makes his story of resilience, hope, and unconditional love even more beautiful. Could your home be the happy ending Arlo has been waiting for? Text us at 469-952-1192 for more information.
