Story
When you walk in the bay where Darby is she lets you know she’s there! She can be vocal. She’s a 3 yr-old 73lb English pointer/German shorthair pointer that arrived at the Mesquite Animal Shelter on 7/31 as a stray. She’s very active but once out of the kennel, she settled down somewhat. She does sit for treats and takes them gently. When I called her from across the yard she came running to me. When I sat down, she came to me and wanted to get on my lap. But she also wanted to get my treats out of my pocket. She likes you to throw a ball for her and she will retrieve it. She has a lot of energy and will need a lot of exercise and enrichment. She is a really good dog, but her energy will need to be channeled. She does have a strong pull on the leash. She will need a large space to run in, but after she has run her energy out, she would love to be indoors, cuddling on the couch or in her own bed to be close to her family companions.

Story
Meet Demi, a charming 4-year-old Heeler mix who is eager to find her perfect forever home. Demi is a wonderful companion with a gentle spirit and a playful heart, and she is ready to share her love with the right family. Demi is dog-friendly with proper introductions and has a special knack for helping other dogs come out of their shells, showcasing her nurturing side. She is crate trained and enjoys the safety of her crate, especially during thunderstorms, where she finds comfort. Demi walks beautifully on a leash and loves to engage in games of chase, whether she's the one chasing or being chased. With a personality akin to an introvert, Demi thrives with structure and boundaries, which help her feel safe and build trust with her humans. She has a low to medium energy level, making her easy to be around, while her great pack drive allows her to form strong bonds with her family. Although she is friendly and listens well, she takes her time to warm up to strangers, which adds to her endearing nature. Demi is playful and has a sweet demeanor, always eager to partake in life's adventures. She loves the great outdoors, especially hiking and exploring new environments. Additionally, she is treadmill trained, providing an excellent outlet on extra hot or cold days. Demi would do best in a quieter home with older children who can respect her gentle nature and allow her the space to thrive. If you're looking for a loving, playful companion who brings joy and stability, Demi could be the perfect addition to your family!

Story
Meet Skippy – the Dog-Lover’s Dog If dogs could hand out friendship bracelets, Skippy would be covered in them. This boy lives for his four-legged friends! A true social butterfly, Skippy thrives in playgroups at OHAR and is happiest when he's surrounded by canine companions. Whether it’s a game of chase, a sniff session, or just lounging in the sun with a buddy, Skippy is all in.But when it comes to humans… Skippy’s heart is a little guarded.You see, Skippy has been let down more times than we can count. His journey began at the Mesquite Animal Shelter way back in 2017. OHAR stepped in to give him a chance, but his first foster placement wasn’t the right fit. Thankfully, an experienced foster took him in and gave him the time, structure, and love he needed to blossom into the amazing pup he truly is.He found what we hoped would be his forever home in 2020, but sadly, Skippy has found himself back with us—returned because his adopters couldn't provide the guidance he still needs. The one human who has ever made Skippy feel safe was his foster mama. She saw his heart, his potential, and never gave up on him.And we won’t either.Skippy deserves more than just another stop on his journey—he deserves his person. Someone patient, experienced, and kind. Someone who understands that trust is earned, not expected. Someone who will let Skippy shine in his own time.Could that someone be you?Let’s show Skippy that forever really does exist.

Story
Hi there &#194&#150 I'm Buscemi (yep, like the actor &#194&#150 but way cuter, if I do say so myself)! I'm a 6-year-old Pointer/Lab mix with leading-man charm and a heart of gold. I was found hanging out near the Loves Gas Station off 549 in Rockwall County, hoping someone would scoop me up for my big break... and I ended up here at the shelter on 6/24/25. My old family never came, but I haven't lost hope&#194&#151because I know my forever family is out there! I'm the perfect mix of mature and fun&#194&#151I've outgrown the puppy chaos, but I still love to play and soak up attention. I'm great with other dogs (but let's do a meet and greet to be sure we're a match!), and I'm always ready for adventures, naps, or just hanging out with my humans. Loyal? Check. Affectionate? Check. Ridiculously good-looking? Double check. I'm neutered, microchipped, heartworm negative, and up to date on my rabies and booster vaccines. All that for just a $125 adoption fee!
