Story

Theo is a two year-old neutered male, 64lb Shepherd mix that arrived at the Mesquite Animal Shelter on 7/28 as a stray. Like I was saying he has made a complete turnaround because once he did get in the yard, he was galloping, prancing and almost bouncing happily back-and-forth. He was so happy he didn’t even want to come to me for petting. He just wanted to frolic. It was hot out, so I took him back into the meet and greet room. That’s when we became better acquainted. He came to me for petting. He’s real sweet and affectionate. He has love to give and wants to be loved in return. He did his business in the yard, and he may be housebroken. He now walks relatively well on a leash. Besides that he said he would like to snuggle inside on the couch with his new family.

Story

Meet Ida May! She is a beautiful 4 yr-old 38lb silvery gray terrier pit that arrived at the Mesquite Animal Shelter on 10/26 as a stray. She sits and even dances for treats, but she doesn`t take them gently, so additional training would be needed. After she enjoyed stretching her legs in the yard, she came back to me and stayed close. When I sat down, she came to me to have her ears scratched. She’s friendly, outgoing, sweet, gentle and has a little zip in her step. She’s very aware of her surroundings. She walked with a purpose, and I think the purpose was to get out in the yard and do her business. She was not interested in meeting other dogs. We do always ask if you have another dog in the home, please ask the shelter for a dog test. She confided in me that she would love to have a secured yard of her own to play in, but definitely wants to be an inside dog so she can enjoy all the luxuries of her new home and her loving human companions.

Axel

American Pit Bull Terrier

Male, 1 yr

Mesquite, TX

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Story

This delightful and enthusiastic youngster is Axle, a pitbull terrier mix weighing 33lbs and at 10 months old that came in as a stray on 10/19. Axel walks nicely on a leash. He was so thrilled to get out in our yard and stretch his legs. He is very excitable and will jump on you. He is a tail-wagging life-of-the-party kind of pup who wants to be close to a human friend. He is very sociable and more than happy to be petted and loved on. He is crazy about treats and will sit constantly in order to receive more! This youngster needs to be in a household with no cats. His dream home would include a couple of soft cushy beds, an inside life with his people, daily playtime and exercise, and he is even willing to work hard at learning some commands. I think he would make a good pupil!

Brindi

American Pit Bull Terrier

Female, 2 yrs 6 mos

Mesquite, TX

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Story

Meet Brindi! She is a 3yr old spayed female brindle pitbull mix that weighs 60lbs. She came into the Mesquite Animal Shelter on 5/15 as a stray. She is a beauty! She is an easy-going, happy, friendly girl that always has a smile on her face and can’t wait to go out for walks. And this girl loves to chase tennis balls! You can’t have too many for her to play with, and she is fantastic at catching them midair. She also chews through the tennis balls so having a strong sturdier ball would be just what she needs to have. In between chasing, she will come to you for plenty of petting and to have her ears scratched. She is a strong leash walker, sits for treats and does take them gently. She may be housetrained too. She didn’t show any interest in the other dogs barking at her, but if you have another dog in the home, please ask the shelter for a dog test. She is an affectionate girl hoping to find her own loving family. Having a secured yard to play in, then come back inside to cuddle with you on the couch would be her dream.

Annie

American Pit Bull Terrier

Female, 2 yrs 3 mos

Mesquite, TX

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Story

Are you looking to add some spice in your life? Do you want someone that will love you unconditionally? Well Annie will do both. She is a 2-3 yr-old reddish brown terrier pit with stand up ears. She weighs 39 pounds and arrived at the Mesquite Animal Shelter on 8/26 as a stray. She is highly motivated by treats and does sit for them. However, she gets overly excited and does not take them gently. She will need some manners training to learn not to do this. She occasionally jumps on you but gets down when told to do so. She does want to please. She is high energy and full of a lot of enthusiasm. It would be very helpful for her to have lots of toys and to be able to go on walks or runs with her new owners. She is super friendly. She’s tail-wagging happy. She does have a strong pull on the leash. She was friendly with other dogs, but at the same time the hair on her back went up. We would advise if another dog is in the home, to ask the shelter for a dog test. She did do her business in the yard immediately. She wants to be an inside dog where she can cuddle up with her new family after playtime.
