Story
Every morning, I look at my reflection in my water bowl and say: `My name is Flash, and I am (probably) the fastest dog alive. To the outside world, I`m an ordinary shelter dog, but secretly, I use my speed to chase squirrels and find people to feed me. And one day, I`ll find a forever home and give hope to all my fellow shelther friends. I am Flash!` And, I am ready for a day of walks, treats and belly rubs! My secret laboratory is at the Grand Prairie Animal Services. Oops... you didn`t hear that. I am a 2 year old german shephard boy, and I love being outside with my favorite people. I really enjoy hanging out with other dogs too. I try to come off as tough and stoic... but after a little while, I`m all play bows and kisses! Of course, I like running around with my friends, too! They can`t keep up! My human friends love when I stand up and hug them around their waist. Superheroes have their soft side too! Like every great hero, I have a nemesis: heartworms. But, the shelter will cover the cost of treatment, so all I need is a quiet home to hang out in while we defeat them! They`re no match for us!The hero life can get pretty lonesome, you know... Please give me a chance! I`ll run away with your heart!

Story
Hey there, I`m Paw! I`ve got energy for days and a love for play. I`m young, and boy do I love the ladies... dogs that is! I`m a bit of a Casanova, you see. But, ahem, just between us, I`m not so good with the fellas. A bit of a misunderstanding led me here. You see, I thought the neighbor`s cat was a lady dog. I was just trying to woo her with my charm when she got all hissy. Well, who knew cats didn`t like doggie kisses? Anyway, I`m barrier reactive, but don`t let that scare you off. I promise I`m a good boy, just need a bit of guidance. Adopt me, and let`s make some fun, silly memories together!

Story
Hi there, I`m Flopsy! I`ve got a tale to tell, one filled with magic and friendship. One day, while exploring a mysterious forest, I found a magical stone. As I sniffed it, I was whisked away to this place they call `shelter`. It`s not the forest, but it`s full of fun and friends. I`ve become the life of the party here, always ready to play and make everyone laugh with my goofiness. I`m brave and curious, always ready for a new adventure. I love making new doggy friends too! But, I yearn for a special friend, someone who`ll join me in my playful, energetic life. So, if you`re looking for a sweet, friendly, and brave companion who`s always up for a game of fetch, I`m your girl. I promise to fill your life with laughter, fun, and endless love.

Hi there, I`m Brownie! I`m a young, energetic fella with a heart full of love. I`m sweet as a brownie, always ready to share a warm cuddle or a funny trick. I`m curious about everything around me and I love to play! I`m a gentle soul, even when I`m being my goofy self. I`m also a great runner, always ready for a game of fetch or a jog in the park. I`m quite the opportunist, always finding the silver lining in every situation. I`m potty trained and I have a peculiar love for the smell of coffee. I promise to bring laughter, love, and lots of energy into your life. So, why should you adopt me? Well, I`m not just a pet, I`m a companion, a friend, and a source of endless joy. Adopt me and let`s make beautiful memories together!
