Story
I picked him up about 2 ish years ago on the side of the road one morning. Didn’t even bother finding the owner since he was in such bad shape. Took him in for all shots, groomed, etc. He did well with my other 2 dogs and does well with my parents dogs. He is extremely skittish of everything. He has never outgrown that trait. He’s completely fine with me or my family or even friends who don’t come over every day, but if someone new comes into the house or he sees someone walking down the street, and they startle him. He will bark a lot, and all the hair on his back will stand up like he’s mean, but he’s really not. He is very sweet when you love on him and would be best as probably a homebody with no kids and no other dogs. Just needs someone to love on him only and a lot. He’s not very social, and I don’t think I would put him around kids. Very sweet, just does not fit my love style of going everywhere with my other dogs.

Story
Hello! We got Bailee from Dallas Animal Shelter. We saw her and fell in love with her. She grew up to be such a sweet, loving dog. She is also pretty calm. Bailee is currently 7 1/2 months. Her birthday is August 17th 2025. We have small dogs and I feel like she is a bit too much for them. Bailee would be amazing with bigger dogs her size or just her and a family❤️. We love her dearly but would love to find a home for her that would love her forever 🩷

Story
This sweet girl came to us as a young stray and has blossomed into a loving, loyal companion. After some patience and care, she learned to trust and has been part of our family ever since. She is affectionate, smart, and full of personality. She enjoys being around her people and has a playful, fun side. As she has matured, we have realized she would do best in a home where she can have more space and be the primary dog. She has a strong personality and would thrive with an experienced owner who can give her structure and attention. She gets along well with male dogs but prefers not to live with other female dogs We live near a busy road, and despite our best efforts, she has shown that she needs a more secure environment to keep her safe. We love her very much and are committed to finding her the right home where she can truly thrive.
