Dutch Shepherd puppies and dogs in Burleson, Texas

-

Hi, I’m GriffI’ve had a really rough start in life. I was found tied to a tree in terrible condition by one of the amazing volunteers, and that’s how I made my way to Apollo. I was scared, confused, and in need of medical care—but thanks to the rescue, I got the help I needed. I’m feeling so much better now, and the only thing left is a little bit of hair loss, which just makes me extra special.I was born in 201&, and I’ve already experienced abandonment and neglect. Because of that, the loud noises and busy environment at the rescue make me pretty anxious. But once you get to know me, you’ll see that I’m actually the cutest, quirkiest pup who loves to make people laugh and have fun.I’m looking for an active family who will love me, train me, and be patient while I continue to learn that the world can be a safe place. I’ll need understanding and kindness as I work through my past, but I promise I’m worth it.I’m neutered and up to date on all my shots. Right now, it’s hard to say if I’m dog reactive because the rescue environment is overwhelming for me. With time, a quieter home, and proper decompression, I may be able to tolerate other dogs—but slow, thoughtful introductions will be important.What I really need is someone willing to see past my rough beginning and help me write a happy ending. If you’re ready to give me that chance, I’d love to meet you.If you are interested in adopting, please copy and paste this link into your browser...https://www.apollosupportandrescue.org/adoptthisdog.htmlIncluded with adoption: Age-appropriate vaccinations, up to date heart-worm preventative, heart-worm test if over 6 months, microchip with registration, and spayed or neutered- if not already, a voucher is provided.Show less

Scout is a protective, loyal partner. He loves to run and is high energy. He would do great in a household that is active and will take him on walks, runs and hikes. Scout loves the water and jumps headfirst in our kiddie pools at the rescue. He is a very affectionate dog and loves to snuggle in bed under the covers. He clings to his owner with a bit of separation anxiety when owner is not around. In a home with little exercise, he can become bored and destructive. He is house trained and walks well on a leash. Since he has gotten older his energy is less, but he will still love walks and hike and then a nice soft place to nap. He was born in 2015 and is located at the Rescue. Included with adoption: Age-appropriate vaccinations, up to date heart-worm preventative, heart-worm test if over 6 months, microchip with registration, and spayed or neutered- if not already, a voucher is provided.

Angel has one of the most incredible stories we’ve had since starting our rescue, and we would love nothing more than to help her find the loving forever home she deserves. Her story began when a kind couple found her in a very rural area. She was only 7–8 days old and weighed barely one or two pounds. Against all odds, this tiny baby survived. The couple rushed her to their veterinarian, where she received the care and medical attention she needed to stabilize and grow stronger. They lovingly cared for her throughout six weeks until their veterinarian cleared Angel. The couple who rescued Angel fell completely in love with her, but they had never intended to keep her. Their only goal was to save her life, and they did just that! Now, at approximately 14 months old, Angel is ready for the next chapter of her life: finding her very own forever family! A little about Angel: At around 38 pounds, Angel is a smaller, medium-sized girl who is already full grown. She is likely a mix of several breeds, but she strongly resembles a Dutch Shepherd, with her beautiful coloring and brindle coat. We suspect she may also have some Australian Cattle Dog (Heeler) in her mix. She has some of those classic Heeler characteristics, including liking to know where everyone is in the house! She's NOT an active herder, though. Angel is incredibly sweet, affectionate, cuddly, and loving. She absolutely enjoys being close to her people. Angel is very praise-driven and also motivated by treats and food, which makes her a wonderful candidate for learning new tricks and commands. Angel is comfortable being left home during the day. Her foster works long hours a few days a week, and Angel does just fine on her own. She is also familiar with using a doggie door. Angel has lived with other dogs while in foster care, but we believe she would be happiest as someone's only dog. She spent the first year of her life in a home where she was the only dog, and we think that is the environment where she would truly thrive. Angel's baby photo will be added to this thread, so you can see just how tiny this little survivor was when her journey began. It's hard to believe that the fragile little puppy who fought so hard to survive is now a beautiful, happy young dog, ready to give someone a lifetime of love. We are really hoping to find that special person or family who will open their heart and home to Angel. She has already overcome so much in her short life. Now it's her turn to be someone's beloved family member, to be spoiled, cherished, and loved forever. Could you be Angel's happily-ever-after?If you have room in your heart and home for this very special girl, please complete our adoption application on our website: www.dashdog.org Then TEXT SARA:214-549-9905 So I can check your application and get back to you! Please share Angel's story! Her forever family may be just one share away.

Charley Dean is a young Dutch Shepherd mix with the intelligence, athleticism, and loyalty this breed is known for. He is potty trained, crate trained, and does well with other dogs and even cats. This handsome boy is full of personality and loves toys, treats, and active playtime with his canine friends. He’s highly intelligent, food motivated, and eager to learn, making him a great candidate for continued training and enrichment activities. As a Dutch Shepherd mix, Charley Dean is not just looking for a couch to nap on — he’s looking for a partner. These dogs are known for their strong bonds with their people, trainability, and work ethic. He will thrive in a home that can provide structure, consistency, daily exercise, and mental stimulation. Puzzle toys, obedience work, hiking, running, agility, scent work, or even learning new tricks are all things he would likely excel at and enjoy. Charley Dean is energetic and athletic, but he’s also a very sweet and loving boy who enjoys being close to his people once his energy is burned off. He would do best with an active adopter familiar with working breeds or someone committed to meeting the needs of a smart, driven dog. With the right home and guidance, Charley Dean has all the potential to become an incredibly loyal, devoted, and fun companion. If you’re ready for a meet and greet, kick off the process with an application at www.flyingbrescue.org/adopt. Our application is thorough but there are no right or wrong answers - we just want to make sure you and the pet are the perfect match. Once we receive your application, we will schedule a phone interview. Our adoptions include a 2-week trial period with fully refundable adoption fees during that period. If you are located outside of Texas, we offer transportation services and have happy families as references. We value transparency, so don’t be afraid to ask us anything.
