Story
Danielle aka Coco is a sweet, comical little girl.She loves being petted and is quick to offer her belly for tummy rubs. She enjoys tearing around the backyard, at breakneck speed but stops after a couple of laps. She loves playing with her foster buddy, Marvin (aka Vinnie), but she can sometimes challenge other small dogs. She will also initially challenge larger dogs, but stops after being put in her place a time or two with a bark from the larger dog. Coco was returned for nipping at a baby but she was okay with toddlers in her foster home when she returned to our program. Because of her history, I would not recommend placing her with babies or children under the age of 6 or so. A trial period with any other dogs in the home would be recommended. She could also be an only dog and be perfectly happy. She loves people. ****Prior to filling out an application or contacting RHS, please completely read the instructions below.**** ALL ADOPTERS/FOSTERS MUST LIVE WITHIN 60 MILES OF RICHARDSON, TX.

Meet Clarissa, the pint-sized bundle of love weighing in at 35 pounds! This sweetheart was adopted as a puppy and did fantastically well, but unfortunately, she was recently returned.

Clarissa is part of our super dogs program and is excelling in her Canine Good Citizen training. We highly recommend homes with dogs her size or bigger for Clarissa. She's friendly, well-behaved, and ready to bring joy to a loving family. Clarissa is looking for either a foster or an adopter who can give her the forever home she deserves.

Story
Hi, my name is Walker. The vet said I’m about 4 years old.  I am a happy boy and I love people and dogs. I weigh about 30 lbs. My activities outside including chasing squirrels and other, not to be named, varmints, as I think I have a lot of terrier in me. Playing catch and batting a tennis ball around occupies me for a while and then – SQUIRREL! Inside I have a lot of toys that my sibling shares with me. My foster mom says I make good choices and only chew on toys, because I'm a Good boy!!! My foster sibling and I have a great time. I am friendly and love to play. Treats get my attention, and I am currently in training and I know a lot! Do I bark, you might ask? Well, I am NOT a cat!, so yes, but mostly with a purpose. I am not chatty but I will let you know if I think something has changed around me. I enjoy taking walks and sniffing, and I am perfect at meeting people and dogs. My goal is to have a family that will be kind to me, love me, and give me lots of attention. I will gladly reciprocate. Having another dog in my family would be perfect. Looking forward to lots of happy tail wags! ##1747931##

Story
Dex is a 10 year old terrier mix that came from a hoarding situation.  He arrived very scared, but with love and affection is coming out of his shell.  Very sweet, but very timid. We think he received minimal or no human contact. This little guy will need a quiet home with someone who will be very patient with him while he continues to learn a life of love from human(s). He will take some time to trust you. He is food motivated and a fast learner. He needs more leash training. We are working on potty training. He loves to play with other dogs and is very submissive. Once you gain his trust, he's playful and likes to be pet and loves belly rubs. He does like his alone time sometimes.   ##1217955##

Story
Minnie is a SPECIAL NEEDS case. Until she trusts you, which doesn’t take long, she has significant behavioral problems (snarling, growling, snapping, barking, she will fear bite and she can sometimes be resource protective). She came from a situation of EXTREME neglect; she was kept outside 24/7 and starved. Therefore, she's VERY fearful of people at first, but once she trusts you, she's the sweetest, most loving dog, but, because she's SO fearful, she needs an EXPERIENCED adopter who will GO SLOW and allow her to build trust. She is usually at our adoption events on Saturdays. She gets along with other dogs although she doesn’t really play with them. She will do best as an only dog. She doesn’t seem to mind cats. She bonds STRONGLY to one person, so she will do best in a one person home. With the person she trusts, she’s EXTREMELY affectionate. She loves to be picked up and held and she loves to give kisses and get belly rubs and go on walks. Because of her issues, she will NOT be adopted into a home with children under 18 - if you're interested in her, please email poochsavers@gmail.com with your experience with abused/fearful/neglected dogs.
