Story

Meet Chevy! Chevy is the most handsome 8 year old pup you will ever lay your eyes on! And he’s got the brains and personality to match! Which to be honest doesn’t always happen haha. He was surrendered by his family to the shelter with his brother. His brother was adopted but Chevy found himself left behind and set to be euthanized for space. When we saw he only had a few hours left we busted him out and I’m so glad we did. Chevy is going to make a family so incredibly happy one day. He is truly a unicorn dog. Going through our temperament evaluation there’s typically a few little things that come up…. Not with Chevy though. Every test we through his way he passed with flying colors. Truthfully it’s almost been a bit boring but he is certainly 100% good boy certified! -Good With Other Dogs. Has an “all out” play style. -Very Sweet and submissive with people. -House/Crate Trained -Leash/Obedience Work We Are Currently Working On. Definitely Had No Work Prior. -Demands belly rubs and he’s cute enough to where you will cave in and give them. -Lower drive GS -High Energy and social would be a great adventure buddy We do not ships dog out of state. All adopters must travel to Dallas to meet their potential animal in person before moving forward with an adoption trial run.

Story

Meet Littlefoot! This little tripod is one of the sweetest pups you’ll ever meet. She was found as a stray along with her puppies in South Texas a few months ago. Since rescuing her, we have gotten her fully vetted which included amputating her front limb, as she was born with a deformity that was causing her some pain. She’s a little over a year old, good with dogs, but prefers a mellow companion. She’s extremely sweet with people and would like to be a cuddle partner for hours on end. She’s also potty trained and crate trained. She has not been cat tested so unfortunately, we do not know how she would do with kitties. Because Littlefoot was a "street dog" the first year of her life, new things can be scary at first. So we will require a patient leader that can teach her that the world is not a scary place. Our trainer will be happy to continue to work with her on confidence building once she enters into your home, as all of our pups come with 3 free at home sessions with one of our trainers. If this little bundle of energy and love, sounds like the perfect match for you, please visit the link and fill out an adoption application so that we can schedule a phone call to chat about her . Please note we do not ship dogs out of state. If you’re currently not in the Dallas Fort Worth area, you will have to come to Dallas to meet her.

Story

Meet Chevy - Your New Co-Pilot for Life's Adventures Hi there! I'm Chevy, an 18-month-old Pit mix weighing in at about 48 lbs, and I'm officially ready to trade shelter life for the open road... straight to your heart. I was found at Archer's Auto Shop in Rockwall on 12/19/25 and, when no one came to reclaim me, I decided it was time to start looking for a forever family of my own. I'm a sweet, well-mannered guy who walks nicely on a leash, knows my basic commands, and genuinely enjoys being around people. I love attention, companionship, and being included in whatever my humans are doing - whether that's a stroll around the neighborhood, a car ride, or just hanging out at home. At the shelter, I've done well with other dogs and have shown that I can be a friendly, social boy. If you have a dog at home, a meet and greet will still be required to make sure our play styles and personalities are a good match before I head home with you. My adoption fee is $125, and I come neutered, microchipped, and current on my core yearly vaccinations. I did test heartworm positive, but the good news is that my treatment is fully sponsored thanks to the amazing support of Rockwall PAWS, so I'll be able to start treatment right away. Staff are always happy to answer any questions about heartworms or my treatment plan. If you're ready for a loyal, affectionate companion who's excited to be your sidekick, apply to adopt me here: https://rockwalladoptions.com/adoptfoster/adoption-application/ Once your application is approved, RAC staff will contact you to schedule a meet and greet. I can't wait to meet you and start our next adventure together! 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. February 20, 2026, 2:51 pm

Miss Josey Joe - In Foster Care

Shepherd (Unknown Type) Akita

Female, Adult

Rockwall, TX

Size

(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)

Details

Good with kids, Good with dogs, Good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Meet Miss Josey Joe - The Ultimate Cat-Loving Canine with a Heart of Gold Say hello to Josey, a beautiful 2-year-old Shepherd/Akita mix weighing about 57 lbs, with the cutest ears and the softest soul. She was found near Windjammer Lane at the Harbor in Rockwall and is now living in a wonderful foster home while she waits for her forever family to find her. Josey is a gentle, sweet girl who may be a little shy at first, but once she feels safe, her loving personality shines. She is house trained, crate trained, and an absolute superstar with other animals. Dogs? Loves them. Cats? Total fan. She's the kind of pup who truly enjoys the company of furry friends and would be happiest in a home with at least one canine buddy to help her feel confident and settled. Because of her calm and sensitive nature, Josey would do best in a quieter home with children ages 6 and up who can respect her gentle personality. She's the type of dog who will quietly follow you around, curl up nearby, and offer steady companionship rather than wild antics. Josey is spayed, microchipped, up to date on her rabies and booster vaccinations, and heartworm negative. Her adoption fee covers all of her medical care and, of course, comes with a lifetime supply of loyalty, sweetness, and soft tail wags. If you're looking for a dog who is as wonderful with cats as she is with dogs, and who will blossom into a devoted family member, Miss Josey Joe might be your perfect match. Apply to adopt Josey here: 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.

Story

Hi there! I'm Baxter, a 2-year-old male Shepherd/Husky mix weighing in at about 85 lbs of fun, fluff, and hilarious energy. I recently surrendered to the Rockwall Adoption Center through no fault of my own, and now I'm ready to start my next chapter with an active family who's ready to keep up with me because if you're not first, your last! I'm a smart, energetic guy who loves learning new things and staying mentally and physically busy. As a Shepherd/Husky mix, I'm very people-oriented and thrive on interaction, companionship, and being part of the action. I'm the kind of dog who wants to be involved in your life-walks, playtime, training sessions, and probably supervising whatever you're doing (quality control is important). Because I bond strongly with my people, I'm not a &#194&#147set it and forget it&#194&#148 kind of dog. I prefer to be indoors with you, included, and mentally engaged. Long lonely days in the yard are not my style - I'd much rather be by your side. If you have other dogs, a meet and greet is recommended to be sure everyone's play styles and personalities are a good match before I head home. I am neutered, microchipped, current on my rabies and basic vaccinations, heartworm negative, and my adoption fee is $125. If you're looking for a loyal, energetic, intelligent companion who's ready for adventures and endless love, I might just be your guy. Apply to adopt me here: https://rockwalladoptions.com/adoptfoster/adoption-application/ All animals, unless otherwise noted in their description, are at 1825 Airport Rd. in Rockwall, TX.
