Story
12 year old Oliver joined Rescue Row in March after being found wandering the streets and later surrendered by his owners to a local animal shelter. This sweet Norwich Terrier/Yorkshire Terrier mix (our best guess!) arrived with a severe skin infection and double ear infections. He was so uncomfortable and itchy that he had scratched himself until he was bleeding. Five months later, this 16 lb boy is healthy, happy, and ready to begin his search for a forever family! During his time with his foster mom, we learned that Oliver requires prescription urinary food, which he will need to remain on going forward. Because of his allergies, he will also likely need to continue taking Apoquel. These are small accommodations for the amount of love this little guy has to give! Oliver loves being with his people, giving kisses, and curling up in your lap for an evening cuddle. He gets along well with calm dogs and cats, is housebroken, does well in the car and crate, and is great on a leash. Oliver has been through a lot, and now he deserves a family who will give him the love, care, and stability he’s been waiting for.

Rescue Row is a 501(c)3 (non-profit) all volunteer dog rescue organization serving the DFW Metroplex. We are dedicated to rescuing dogs in shelters, dogs in abusive or neglectful situations, and dogs surrendered by their owners because of difficult circumstances. We place dogs in loving, responsible, committed permanent homes, following a comprehensive adoption process, which includes taking considerable care in finding good matches and educating prospective adopters about the responsibilities and costs of bringing a dog into their homes and lives. Dogs in our care are spayed or neutered, microchipped, receive all appropriate veterinary care and treatment, and placed in nurturing foster homes while they await placement in their permanent homes. We assist dogs in distress without regard to age, breed or ease of placement. Dogs in the greatest need take priority. Finally, we strive to work with shelters and other rescue and humane organizations to develop a network of supporters and volunteers in order to create a better world for homeless dogs.
