Story
Ernie is officially available for adoption! -10yo, long haired chihuahua & 13lbs -Neutered, vax’d, chipped & hw neg -Dog, cat and people friendly -Crate and potty trained -Tripod -Sweet, loving boy -Very low energy Ernie was found as a stray in Seagoville along with his brother Bert and brought to the shelter. Ernie was chipped, but owners hung up when the shelter contacted them. Unfortunately, we realized soon after picking them up that Bert was hospice and did not have very long. Ernie has adapted well since loosing Bert. Ernie would do well in a home with other dogs, but equally happy as an only dog. He would be great for a senior (the rescue has a senior program too)! He got a dental, benign masses removed and his leg amputated and has adjusted very well! Ernie is a true couch potato & loves sleeping and lounging the entire day! If interested in Ernie, please fill out an application in order to schedule a call!

Story
Meet Timber &#194&#150 A Tiny Guy With a Big Heart Say hello to Timber, a small but spirited 2 year old, Chihuahua mix who is ready to find a loving forever home! Timber was found off Chisholm Trail in Rockwall County on 11/18/25 with another small male dog, both without collars or microchips. After completing his 72-hour stray hold with no owner coming forward, this little guy is now officially available for adoption. Timber is sweet, alert, and full of personality. You just need to give him a little time to warm up because he can be shy at first. At around 1 lbs., he's the perfect size for someone looking for a compact companion with a lot of love to give. He would benefit from a patient adopter who can help him settle in, gain confidence, and continue learning what it means to be part of a family. His adoption fee is $125. He is neutered, microchipped, current n his rabies, boosters to date, and heartworm negative. If you're searching for a petite, loyal companion who is ready to start fresh, Timber may be the perfect match. Interested in adopting Timber? An approved online adoption application is required for all meet and greets and for adoption consideration. https://rockwalladoptions.com/adoptfoster/adoption-application/  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. December 3, 2025, 7:30 pm

Story
This dog was abandoned in our yard about a week ago. I’ve made post to our local area looking for his owner but have had zero luck finding them. Checked for a chip and he didn’t have one, tried every animal shelter and foster near me and nobody would take him. This is my complete last resort and I’m hoping through this organization he will find a loving home.

Story
Meena was taken to the Mesquite Shelter and was pregnant. Her baby was born in the shelter. When we got her she was untouchable and bity. Thank goodness she is now in general population but still cant be touched. Her baby really helps in getting her near. She is very close to her baby, Tiny, and looks to her when she gets uncomfortable. Therefore they will be adopted together. Meena and her baby Tiny has been with their foster since Tiny was born. Tiny is very socialized, but her momma isnt there yet. They can be adopted but will be adopted together, with the understanding that Meena is still a work in progress. You have to be ok, with knowing at this moment you cant really hold her. She will take treats out of your hands, she will sit and stare at you, she will even lay at the foot of your bed. We will require another dog in the household along with these two. When its time to be vetted, you will have to capture her, unless she is further along, to crate her and get her to the vet. She can not go unvetted because you cant catch her. Part of the package. This will require a very special person or family.
