Story
Meet Lottie! This beautiful approximately 1-year-old Dutch Shepherd mix was found on 09/28/2026 near 276/549 and, after not being reclaimed, is now ready to find a family of her own. Lottie is sweet, affectionate, calm, potty trained, and already knows basic commands. She would likely do well with children and may do well with other dogs, but since she has not yet been dog tested, a meet and greet is recommended if you have another dog at home. Her $125 adoption fee includes her spay, rabies vaccination, boosters to date, microchip, and heartworm test. Lottie is scheduled for her spay on Wednesday, 10/07/2026, and that date is non-negotiable. Apply to adopt at 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. 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. October 1, 2026, 8:32 pm

Story
Charley Dean – Young Dutch Shepherd Mix 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.

They just wanted to save her life.   We’re really trying to help Angel get into a new home! She’d be happy to be somebody’s only dog, (although she has lived as a foster with other dogs)   Angel baby photo will be added to this thread - but even now at about 14 months old, she’s not a big dog about 38 pounds full grown.   She’s definitely a mix of Mini breeds, but looks so much like a Dutch Shepherd - her coloring, her brindle - and it’s hard to tell in photos but she does not have a large head or chest like a pit might.   We’re sure she has Australian Cattle Dog or Heeler breed mixed in with her; she likes to know who is where in the house. She’s not an active herder but many similarities.    Angel is very praise- driven as well as treat/food motivated. She will not try and take another dog food and isn’t crazy about another dog taking hers   Angel is so sweet, cuddly and lovable - we rarely get dogs where we believe that they will be happy as the only dog, but since that house was how she was the first year of her life we think that would make her the happiest.   If a person or a couple with a large male dog is interested then that would be a good application as well.   Angela is good with being left during the day; her Foster works a few days a week for long hours and Angel knows how to use the doggie door. She’s a quick studying would be really responsive to learning new tricks and commands.   If you have room in your heart and your home for this little girl who barely stayed alive, she is now looking for her forever home and we are trying to help her find the perfect one!   To meet Angel for adoption please complete our application on our website below:   www.dashdog.org   Then TEXT SARA:  214-549-9905   So one of us can check your application and get back to you!  General Info - PLEASE READ! *Our $450 adoption fee is based on the cost of rescuing, transporting and vetting each dog; we do not try to compete on prices with municipal shelters whose funds are paid by the city.

Story
Meet Saint – A True Survivor Ready for His Forever Home! Saint is a stunning Catahoula/Dutch Shepherd mix with a heart as big as his story. This handsome boy was rescued from a local shelter after being found all alone with a severely broken leg. He was in desperate need of medical care, and thanks to the quick action of Legacy Humane Society and the loving care of his foster family, Saint is now fully recovered and thriving! Now healed and full of life, Saint is ready for his next chapter—with a forever family who will love him as much as he’ll love them. He’s housebroken, crate trained, and fantastic with people and other dogs. (He hasn’t been cat-tested yet, but we’re happy to do so upon request.) Saint is an energetic, athletic pup who lives for playtime. He’s a fan of fetch, tug-of-war, and zoomies, so an active home (and maybe a playful canine sibling) would be perfect for this spirited guy. He plays hard and loves harder! ✔️ Vetting Info: • Neutered • Up to date on vaccinations • Microchipped • Heartworm negative DOB: 4/23/24 ⚖️ Weight: 45 lbs  Adoption Fee: $125 If you’re ready to open your heart and home to a loyal, loving, and playful pup, Saint is waiting for you! Fill out the adoption application today, and his foster will be in touch: Adoption Application - Legacy Humane Society  We do not have a facility to house the dogs in our program. They are all kept in foster homes until they are adopted. Therefore, if you are interested in adopting from LHS, please complete an online application at http://legacyhumanesociety.org/adoptfoster/adoption-application/ and we will contact you asap about the status of your application.

Story
Violet is a love bug to her people but cautious of others until trust is built. She takes her role as her family's protector very seriously. She is thought to be a German Shepherd and Golden Retriever mix. She was born July 25, 2023, weighs 53 pounds, is fully vaccinated, spayed, microchipped, HW negative and on preventative. She sleeps all night in her crate and is house trained.  Due to Violet's rough start in life she will need a family with patience, allowing her to bond in her own time by giving her love, positive reinforcement and remembering that it's a journey not a race. Once she gains your trust she's likely to cuddle like a baby with her people, play with her chew toys and will love going on walks. Her ideal home is one where the mom or dad work from home or part time and has a doggie friend to play with. She does okay with respectful cats, but does try to herd anything that moves faster than a walk whether it is other dogs, cats or humans both young and old. She sees any type of fowl as a chew toy so we recommend a home without pet birds or chickens. A fenced yard and vet reference are required. We adopt in the DFW area only (within a 1 hour's drive from Terrell) as we deliver our pets to their new homes. You can apply for her here: https://www.terrellanimalalliance.org/application

Story
ADOPTION PENDING!!! Watson was born July 1, 2024 to an abandoned dog. Best guess on his breed is Shepherd, Lab, Pittie, and SuperMutt! We've included a pic of his momma who is a black Shepherd. He's a handsome hunk who loves to flirt! He can be a little shy at first but has the sweetest temperament and warms up quickly. He loves playing with other dogs his size (not sure about the little ones) and loves zoomies! Although he would love a playmate, Watson would be fine as your only dog getting all of your love and attention. He would do well in a home with respectful children and cats. Watson has had some obedience training, walks great on a leash and knows the basic commands. He is crate and house trained too! He is neutered, fully vaccinated, microchipped, HW negative and on flea & HW preventatives. We adopt in the DFW area only (within an hour's drive from Terrell) as we deliver our pets to their new homes., A fenced yard and vet reference are required. You can apply for him here: https://www.terrellanimalalliance.org/application
